  1. 1. Optical Communication using Nanowires and Molecular Memory Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik

    Author : Thomas Kjellberg Jensen; [2024]
    Keywords : neuromorphic computing; nanowire; molecular dye; DASA photoswitch; OBIC; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Neuromorphic computational networks, inspired by biological neural networks, provide a possible way of lowering computational energy cost, while at the same time allowing for much more sophisticated devices capable of real-time inferences and learning. Since simulating artificial neural networks on conventional computers is particularly inefficient, the development of neuromorphic devices is strongly motivated as the reliance on AI-models increases.

  2. 2. Blågröna lösningar i en grå stadsdel

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

    Author : Matilda Hiller; Niklas Jönsson; [2024]
    Keywords : Blågrön infrastruktur; dagvattenhantering; regnbäddar; biofilter; svackdiken; permeabel markbeläggning; öppet förstärkningslager; växtval; Gåsebäck; Helsingborg;

    Abstract : Vatten är livsviktigt för allt liv på jorden, men vad händer när vattnet istället för resurs blir en belastning? Stora andelar hårdgjorda ytor i kombination med skyfall kan skapa problem i städer. I miljöer med mycket asfalt eller betong, förändras vattnets naturliga kretslopp. READ MORE

  3. 3. “If you think that you will continue to be a cisgender company and all that stuff, you’re mistaken” Exploring the Impact of Employment Discrimination on Individuals with Trans-life Experiences: A Case Study of the GAAT Foundation in Colombia

  4. 4. ASSESSING PUBLIC OPINION ON ALGORITHMIC FAIRNESS Reviewing practical challenges and the role of contextual factors

    University essay from Institutionen för tillämpad informationsteknologi

    Author : Veronica Kecki; [2023-02-01]
    Keywords : AI; artificial intelligence; ML; machine learning; algorithms; algorithmic decision-making; fairness; socio-technical design; AI ethics;

    Abstract : AI ethicists often claim that where algorithmic decision-making is impacting human lives, it is crucial to strive for transparency and explainability. As one form of achieving these, some authors have argued for socio-technical design of AI systems that involves the user in the design process. READ MORE

  5. 5. Hybrid bridge deck of timber and corrugated steel plates

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Muze Lu; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Over the years, hybrid structures composed of timber and steel have become a potential alternative to conventional solutions. Recently, corrugated steel plate (CSP) has become more and more popular in structures such as shear walls and roofs due to its favorable mechanical properties. READ MORE
