  1. 1. Path Choice Estimation in Urban Rails : Asimulation based optimisation for frequency-based assignment model

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

    Author : Alexander Adolfsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Black-Box Optimisation; Optimization; Simulation based optimisation; Transit Network; Automaton; Urban Transport; Public transportation; Black-Box optimering; Optimering; Simuleringsbaserad Optimering; Transportsystem; Automation; Local Transport; Kollektivtrafik;

    Abstract : Transit system have a large importance in modern urban cities, with urban rail often acting as the central system with it efficient travel time and great capacity. As cities grow in population, so to does the usage of urban rail resulting in increased crowding on the platform and in the trains. READ MORE

  2. 2. Monte-Carlo Tree Search for Fox Game

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

    Author : Anton Janshagen; Olof Mattsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Monte-Carlo Tree Search; Artificial Intelligence; Fox Game; Cutoff; Heuristic Function;

    Abstract : This report explores if Monte-Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) can perform well in Fox Game, a classic Scandinavian strategy game. MCTS is implemented using a cutoff in the simulation phase. The game state is then evaluated using a heuristic function that is formulated using theoretical arguments from its chess counterpart. READ MORE

  3. 3. On The Run: How Fast Runaway Stars Can Escape From Their Home Cluster?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Anna-Maria Söderman; [2022]
    Keywords : star cluster; runaway stars; velocity distribution; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Galaxies contain a wide variety of star clusters with different properties. Each cluster is a possible source of runaway stars, which can be progenitors of supernovae in other parts of the galaxy than their home cluster. Considering runaway stars in galaxy simulations has shown to increase the galactic feedback. READ MORE

  4. 4. SIMULATING A SYSTEM : Using video games as tools to promote self-directed learning

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för speldesign

    Author : Per Hallros; Niklas Pålsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Computer games; game design; procedural rhetoric; self-directed learning; prototyping; simulation.;

    Abstract : As a response to finding innovative ways of using games as tools for learning we explore the design process of creating a game system meant to promote self-directed learning. This thesis explores what design pillars a game system needs to follow when making a game that is meant to promote self-directed learning through reflection on cause and effect relations. READ MORE

  5. 5. An In-Depth Look at Bostrom’s Simulation Argument

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Filosofiska institutionen

    Author : Viking Nilsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Bostrom; Simulation Argument;

    Abstract : In his 2003 paper “Are You Living in a Computer Simulation” Nick Bostrom argues that it is reasonable to believe that we are currently living in a computer simulation run by another civilisation. To argue this, Bostrom derives a mathematical formula that helps him calculate the probability that our universe is indeed simulated. READ MORE
