  1. 1. INTELLIGENCE AND THE STRUCTURES OF THE LINGUAL GYRI

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Author : Norrman Emil; [2023]
    Keywords : IQ; cortical thickness; lingual gyri; biomarkers; IQ; kortikal tjocklek; lingual gyri; biomarkörer;

    Abstract : Finding neural correlates of intelligence and cognitive abilities in the developing brain during childhood may be important in many ways, such as predicting and understanding educational abilities or making clinical evaluations of patients. Even if substantial contemporary research has established relationships between brain structures and general intelligence, little is known about the lingual gyri and their links to IQ. READ MORE

  3. 2. Improvement of the substrate layer in a photovoltaic system for neural implants

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

    Keywords : Bioengineering; Photovoltaic; substrate; neural implant; Parylene C; Bioteknik; solceller; substrat; neurala implantat; Parylen C;

    Abstract : Neural implants have been developed to aid with different neurological disorders. Although there are neural implants that are used to treat patients today, there is still room for improvement in the field. READ MORE

  4. 3. Applicability of Graph Neural Networks to predict Human variability in Human Body Model Rib Strain Predictions

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistik, AI och data science

    Author : Julia Solhed; [2022]
    Keywords : Graph Neural Networks; Human Body Model; SAFER HBM; HBM simulation; Rib strain predictions; Rib fracture risk predictions;

    Abstract : Finite element human body models have in recent years become widely used in the area of vehicle safety evaluations. They make it possible to predict injury risk in specific areas, down to the organ level in the human body. An existing human body model, SAFER HBM includes a rib cage representing an average male.

  5. 4. Association between cognitive measures, global brain surface area, genetics, and screen-time in young adolescents : Estimation of causal inference with machine learning

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

    Author : Evgenija Kravchenko; [2021]
    Keywords : Causal modelling; DirectLiNGAM; PGS; intelligence; screen time; cognitive development; Kausal modellering; DirectLiNGAM; PGS; intelligens; skärmtid; kognitiv utveckling;

    Abstract : Screen media activity such as watching TV and videos, playing video games, and using social media has become a popular leisure activity for children and adolescents. The effect of screen time has been a highly debated topic; however, there is still very little known about it. READ MORE

  6. 5. The effect of vessel holes on fracture behaviour in the femoral neck of the human femur

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Sofia Rokkones; Karin Odin; [2020]
    Keywords : image analysis; femur; FE model; biomechanics; CT image; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hip fractures are widely spread in today's society and affect a person's quality of life. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that results in more fragile bones and an increased risk of bone fractures, including hip fractures. A method proposed for assessing the fracture risk is finite element (FE) models of the femur. READ MORE
