  1. 1. Facilitating Behavioral Change among Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome : A Design-Oriented Case Study

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

    Author : Hilda Robertsson; [2023]
    Keywords : gamification; health app; women’s health; behavior change; habit formation; basic psychological needs; self-determination theory; HCI; app design; spelifiering; hälsoapp; kvinnohälsa; beteendeförändring; vanebildande; psykologiska behov; självbestämmandeteorin; MDI; app design;

    Abstract : The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects women or people with female reproductive organs negatively, by irregular periods, difficulties in getting pregnant, and excessive hair growth. The symptoms can be eased by taking on habits of regular physical exercise and a balanced diet. Taking on new habits is however a challenging task. READ MORE

  2. 2. Dagvatten och dess potentialer : en studie om dagvattenanläggningar med rekreativa värden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : My Malmberg; [2023]
    Keywords : hållbar dagvattenhantering; vatten och landskapsarkitektur; rekreation; upplevelsevärden; kulturella ekosystemtjänster; landskap och miljöpsykologi; klimatförändringar; skyfall;

    Abstract : I dagens samhälle är klimatförändringar ett faktum och det innebär ett varmare klimat och ökad nederbörd. Samtidigt går utvecklingen i den urbana miljön mot ökande andel hårdgjorda ytor. Tillsammans för detta med sig mer dagvatten att hantera samt sämre möjligheter för vattnet att infiltrera i marken.

  3. 3. Cancer Driver Gene Detection using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks on H3K4me3 Enrichment Profiles

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Marc Pielies Avellí; [2022]
    Keywords : Cancer Driver CD Gene; Histone Post-Translational Modifications PTMs ; Convolutional Neural Networks CNNs .; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In spite of our current knowledge regarding the biology underlying cancer genesis, reliable methods for the discovery of cancer driver (CD) genes are still in great need. The rather recent incorporation of epigenetic markers to the cancer paradigm has nevertheless opened the door for the development of new computational approaches to the problem. READ MORE

  4. 4. Understanding Rt using two-particle correlations by simulating proton-proton collisions in a Monte-Carlo model

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Johan Leygonie; [2021]
    Keywords : QGP; Quark-Gluon-Plasma; Rt; Particle Physics; Proton-proton Collisions; Pythia; Monte-Carlo Model; Bachelor s Thesis; Heavy-ion Collisions; ALICE; CERN; Relative Transverse Activity; Jets; Two-Particles Correlations; Quantum Physics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The observable Rt is investigated in the Monte Carlo Model Pythia in order to better understand results from experimental data obtained in the ALICE detector at CERN. The purpose is to reproduce the experiment in a simulation and use the features proposed by Pythia to dig into the unexpected outcomes. READ MORE

  5. 5. Supporting Intrinsic Motivation in a VR Reaction Training Application

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Author : Gabrielle Carlsson; Anne Line Gjersem; [2021]
    Keywords : Self determination theory; Virtual reality; reaction training; autonomy support; competence support; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Studies have validated that supporting basic psychological needs of the self-determination theory (SDT) in video games can affect intrinsic motivation. But it is difficult to find evidence that the same applies to virtual reality (VR) applications, especially by isolating groups of game features that support each of the basic psychological needs.
