  1. 1. Gendered Division of Housework in Greece : A feminist analysis of a time use survey

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Umeå centrum för genusstudier (UCGS)

    Author : Anastasia Vogiatzi; [2023]
    Keywords : housework; Greece; time use survey; gendered division of labor; unpaid labor;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to examine the gendered housework division in Greece based on research questions about participation by gender, chore types, and factors like age, education, and employment's influence, as well as uncovering related dynamics and trends. A quantitative analysis is employed using Greece's single time use survey conducted in 2013, which reveals substantial gender inequalities in housework division. READ MORE

  3. 2. Real-time uncertainty estimation for deep learning

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

    Author : Árni Dagur Guðmundsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine Learning; Deep Learning; Uncertainty Estimation; Evidential Deep Learning; Computer Vision; Maskininlärning; Djupinlärning; Osäkerhetsuppskattning; Evidential Deep Learning; Datorseende; Vélnám; Djúptauganet; Óvissumat; Evidential Deep Learning; Tölvusjón;

    Abstract : Modern deep neural networks do not produce well calibrated estimates of their own uncertainty, unless specific uncertainty estimation techniques are applied. Common uncertainty estimation techniques such as Deep Ensembles and Monte Carlo Dropout necessitate multiple forward pass evaluations for each input sample, making them too slow for real-time use.
