  1. 1. Messages from the deep: A reception study of Denis Villeneuve's Dune

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för kulturvetenskaper

    Author : Sarah R. Kern; [2024-02-06]
    Keywords : Hegemony; Production Reception; Discourse; Dominant Negotiated Oppositional; Dune; Representation; Reception study; convergence culture; science fiction; participation culture; fandom;

    Abstract : This essay uses Pierre Bourdieus habitus, symbolic capital, Social fields, Stuart Halls representation theory and Encoding/Decoding system, as well as Henry Jenkins concept of convergence culture and media convergence, to conduct a reception study of Denis Villeneuves 2021 adaption of the science fiction movie Dune. The material collected for the reception study is collected in the form of reviews and features from experts in cinema, juxtaposed against material collected from YouTube in the form of reviews, reaction videos and video essays from social groups sectioned around cinephiles and science fiction fandom.

  3. 2. On Linear Mode Connectivity up to Permutation of Hidden Neurons in Neural Network : When does Weight Averaging work?

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Adhithyan Kalaivanan; [2023]
    Keywords : Mode Connectivity; Representation Learning; Loss Landscape; Network Symmetry; Lägesanslutning; representationsinlärning; förlustlandskap; nätverkssymmetri;

    Abstract : Neural networks trained using gradient-based optimization methods exhibit a surprising phenomenon known as mode connectivity, where two independently trained network weights are not isolated low loss minima in the parameter space. Instead, they can be connected by simple curves along which the loss remains low. READ MORE

    Abstract : The research focuses on the selection and prioritization of Continuous Improvement (CI)projects in organizations. This study emphasizes the importance of recognizing appropriatecriteria for selecting projects that align with an organization's needs, skills, and goals. READ MORE

  5. 4. Approximating Damping Coefficient of Bolted Joints using the Finite Element Method

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Abhiroop Chatterjee; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Bolted joints are important due to their energy dissipation property in structures,but the damping mechanism is also highly nonlinear and localized. The goal ofthis thesis is to develop an accurate method for modeling bolted joint dampingin large structures using finite element (FE) software. READ MORE

  6. 5. Text-Driven Fashion Image Manipulation with GANs : A case study in full-body human image manipulation in fashion

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Reza Dadfar; [2023]
    Keywords : Multimodal fashion image editing; Generative adversarial network inversion; Text-driven image manipulation; TD-GEM; Multimodal modebildredigering; Generativa adverserial Nätverk inversion; Text-driven bildmanipulation; TD-GEM;

    Abstract : Language-based fashion image editing has promising applications in design, sustainability, and art. However, it is considered a challenging problem in computer vision and graphics. The diversity of human poses and the complexity of clothing shapes and textures make the editing problem difficult. READ MORE
