1. 6. An exploration of the relationship between skeletal muscle mass and glucose intolerance in healthy young adults

   University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

   Author : Philip Richard Evans; [2023]
   Keywords : Type 2 diabetes mellitus; fasting plasma glucose; impaired fasting glucose; longitudinal trajectory; incidence rate; Oralt glukostoleranstest; antropometriska mätningar; muskelmassa; typ 2 diabetes; glukosintolerans;

   Abstract : Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a globally prevalent disease anticipated to double from 500 million diagnosed cases in 2021 to more than one billion by 2050. The investigation of the potentially protective effects of skeletal muscle mass on glucose intolerance may lead to the development of more precise screening protocols. READ MORE

3. 7. Is there a benefit of super spikes in long jump performance?

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsa

   Author : Erik Svensson; [2023]
   Keywords : Long jump; long jump performance; AFT; super shoes; super spikes; carbon fiber plate; athletics; track field; jump; biomechanics; sprint; speed; force;

   Abstract : Background and aim The pace of development of distance running shoes has been fast-forward since 2016 when Nike introduced their model Nike Zoom Vaporfly, with an imbedded carbon fiber plate and an advanced newly developed Pebax®-foam. The shoe-development has continued to track events, with the introduction of carbon fiber plate in several shoe-models for running and sprint- events. READ MORE

4. 8. Mispronunciation Detection with SpeechBlender Data Augmentation Pipeline

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

   Author : Yassine Elkheir; [2023]
   Keywords : Computer-assisted pronunciation training CAPT ; Automatic Speech Recognition ASR ; Mispronunciation Detection MD and Data Augmentation; Datorstödd uttalsträning CAPT ; automatisk taligenkänning ASR ; upptäckt av felaktigt uttal MD och dataförstärkning;

   Abstract : The rise of multilingualism has fueled the demand for computer-assisted pronunciation training (CAPT) systems for language learning, CAPT systems make use of speech technology advancements and offer features such as learner assessment and curriculum management. Mispronunciation detection (MD) is a crucial aspect of CAPT, aimed at identifying and correcting mispronunciations in second language learners’ speech. READ MORE

5. 9. Mouthfeel Assessment of Tetra Pak Paper Straws: Exploring the Correlation between Instrumental Measurements and Sensory Evaluation

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

   Author : Natchaya Hanprerakriengkrai; [2023]
   Keywords : mouthfeel; paper straws; correlations; instrumental measurement; sensory evaluation; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The implementation of the Single-Use Plastics Directive has gained significant attention due to the detrimental impacts of plastic pollution, leading to the transition from plastic straws to paper straws for Tetra Pak’s portion-size carton packages. However, the acceptance of paper straws could be hindered by negative mouthfeel perceptions, which customers find the difficulties to accurately describe them. READ MORE

6. 10. Spatiotemporal PET reconstruction with Learned Registration

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

   Author : Pierre Meyrat; [2022]
   Keywords : PET; Tomographic reconstruction; Deep Learning; MLEM; PET; Tomografisk rekonstruktion; Deep Learning; MLEM;

   Abstract : Because of the long acquisition time of Positron Emission Tomography scanners, the reconstructed images are blurred by motion. We hereby propose a novel motion-correction maximum-likelihood expectation-maximization algorithm integrating 3D movements between the different gates estimated by a neural network trained on synthetic data with contrast invariance.
