  1. 6. A Bayesian Bee Colony Algorithm for Hyperparameter Tuning of Stochastic SNNs : A design, development, and proposal of a stochastic spiking neural network and associated tuner

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och system

    Author : Oskar Falkeström; [2023]
    Keywords : edge computing; edge user allocation; constraint satisfaction problem; bin packing problem; spiking neural networks; SNN; stochastic spiking neural networks; neuromorphic computing; hyperparameter tuning; swarm intellience; artificial bee colony algorithm; tree-structured Parzen estimator; stochastic optimization; Bayesian optimization.;

    Abstract : With the world experiencing a rapid increase in the number of cloud devices, continuing to ensure high-quality connections requires a reimagining of cloud. One proponent, edge computing, consists of many distributed and close-to-consumer edge servers that are hired by the service providers. READ MORE

    Abstract : Solid waste management is a global issue that affects everyone. The management of waste collection routes is a critical challenge in urban environments, primarily due to inefficient routing. This thesis investigates the use of real-time virtual replicas, namely Digital Twins to optimize waste collection routes. READ MORE

  5. 9. Isolation of an ammonia-tolerant syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium originating from a thermophilic biogas digester

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Malin Tiefensee; [2023]
    Keywords : thermophilic; ammonia-tolerant; syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium;

    Abstract : Syntrophic relationships between fatty acid degrading bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens are important for a well-functioning anaerobic degradation process during biogas production from organic waste material. This is particularly important in biogas processes fed protein-rich material as their degradation gives rise to high levels of ammonia, which inhibits many microorganisms. READ MORE

  6. 10. Beer Festival and Place Identity : An Analysis of Munich Oktoberfest And Qingdao International Beer Festival

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teologiska institutionen

    Author : Rucheng Wang; [2022]
    Keywords : beer festivals; place identity; uniqueness; authenticity; liminality; Heimat ; nostalgia; globalisation; modernisation;

    Abstract : As microcosms of German and Chinese societies, Munich Oktoberfest and Qingdao International Beer Festival are important manifestations of local culture. This study intends to answer the following question: to which extent are beer festivals in Germany and China related to local history and the local sense of place? A historical overview of the beer festivals in Munich and Qingdao is provided, as well as an analysis of how people seeking a sense of belonging creatively combine cognitive schemata of modernity with local cultural systems on a symbolic level.
