  3. 2. Fast Simulations of Radio Neutrino Detectors : Using Generative Adversarial Networks and Artificial Neural Networks

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Anton Holmberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Askaryan emission; Radio detection of neutrinos; in-ice propagation; neutrino; Generative adversarial networks; GAN; WGAN; Neural networks; NN; surrogate model; IceCube; deep learning; generative model;

    Abstract : Neutrino astronomy is expanding into the ultra-high energy (>1017eV) frontier with the use of in-ice detection of Askaryan radio emission from neutrino-induced particle showers. There are already pilot arrays for validating the technology and the next few years will see the planning and construction of IceCube-Gen2, an upgrade to the current neutrino telescope IceCube.

  5. 4. THE PROCREATION ASYMMETRY : The Existence-requirement Strategy and some Concerns on Incompatibility

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för idé- och samhällsstudier

    Author : Jepser Söderstedt; [2020]
    Keywords : The procreation asymmetry; asymmetry; variabilism; harming; benefitting; conditional reasons; happiness;

    Abstract : According to the procreation asymmetry there is no moral reason to create a new and foreseeably happy person just because this person will be happy, but there is however a moral reason against creating a new and foreseeably unhappy person just because this person will be unhappy. A common way to defend this conjunction of claims is by employing a so-called existence-requirement, according to which the happiness of a given person p in a world w depends on it being possible to understand p as an existing person in w.

  6. 5. Extracting Adverse Drug Reactions from Product Labels using Deep Learning and Natural Language Processing

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Shachi Bista; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Pharamacovigilance relates to activities involving drug safety monitoring in the post-marketing phase of the drug development life-cycle. Despite rigorous trials and experiments that drugs undergo before they are available in the market, they can still cause previously unobserved side-effects (also known as adverse events) due to drug–drug interaction, genetic, physiological or demographic reasons.
