  1. 6. Critical Branching Regulation of the E-I Net Spiking Neural Network Model

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Oskar Öberg; [2019]
    Keywords : Pattern recognition; Spiking neural network; Critical branching; Self-organized criticality; Spike-based learning; Brain-inspired computing; Signal processing;

    Abstract : Spiking neural networks (SNN) are dynamic models of biological neurons, that communicates with event-based signals called spikes. SNN that reproduce observed properties of biological senses like vision are developed to better understand how such systems function, and to learn how more efficient sensor systems can be engineered.

  3. 7. Non-linear behaviour of nanofibrillar cellulose foams

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära (Avd.)

    Author : Filip Karlberg; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC) is a cellulose-based material that can be used to create porous foams. The material has several advantages over various synthetic polymers that can be used to create foams as NFC is both abundant and biodegradable. READ MORE

  4. 8. Examining the New Kind of Beauty Using the Human Being as a Measuring Instrument

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för Industriell utveckling, IT och Samhällsbyggnad

    Author : Jou-Hsuan Wu; [2015]
    Keywords : Cartography; scaling; head tail breaks; the theory of centers; fractals; and the mirror-of-the-self test;

    Abstract : A map combines scientific facts with aesthetic perceptions. This study argues that scaling is universal in mapping reality and evoking a sense of beauty. Scaling laws are used to reveal the underlying structures and dynamics of spatial features. Complex systems, such as living cities involve various interacting entities at all scales. READ MORE

  5. 9. Diffusion in the liquid Co binder of cemented carbides: Ab initio molecular dynamics and DICTRA simulations

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Martin Walbrühl; [2014]
    Keywords : Ab initio; molecular dynamics; AIMD; DICTRA; cemented carbides; hardmetals; diffusion; liquid Co; cobalt; binder phase;

    Abstract : A fundamental quantum mechanical modelling approach is used for calculating liquid diffusion parameters in cemented carbides. Up to now, no detailed description of diffusion for alloying elements in a liquid Co matrix is available. READ MORE

  6. 10. Pilot study : Modeling of Wildfires

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Avdelningen för matematik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Rickard Hansen; [2008]
    Keywords : Wildfire; modeling; forest fire; decision tool;

    Abstract : There is presently no wildfire model developed for Swedish conditions, only a fire danger rating system (FWI) has been developed for Swedish conditions. The demand for a wildfire model has not been great in the past in Sweden but the climate changes now taking place increases the risk of large and intensive wildfires in Sweden. READ MORE
