  1. 1. A computational model of metapopulation dynamics and organism-mediated nutrient flow

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Amanda Hansson; [2023-08-07]
    Keywords : computational model; population dynamics; metapopulation dynamics; nutrient flow; simulation; spatially explicit; individual-based;

    Abstract : The aim of this project was to assess, using in-silico experiments, how different life history char-acteristics, such as age at maturity and dispersal ability of individuals, influence the dynamics of a metapopulation. To achieve this, a novel model of a spatially explicit metapopulation, with organ-ism-mediated nutrient flow between fragmented habitat patches, was implemented by means of computer simulations.

    Author : Chloé Soormally; [2023]
    Keywords : Tuberculosis; COVID-19; Lung Ultrasound; Computer-aided detection CAD ; Deep learning; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : BACKGROUND. Early and accurate detection of infectious respiratory diseases like COVID-19 and tuberculosis (TB) plays a crucial role in effective management and the reduction of preventable mortality. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessing Electricity Prices and Their Driving Mechanisms in Brazil with Neural Networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Henrique Costabile; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In general, electricity prices are very volatile and derive from many external variables. In Brazil, this price is determined by computer models developed and operated by government organizations. The supply and demand relationships are not enough to determine prices in Brazilian submarkets. READ MORE

  5. 4. PVCFA: Principal Variation Context Feature Attribution : Distributed Chess for Perturbation-based Saliency Maps

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

    Author : Marco Molinari; [2023]
    Keywords : Chess; Perturbation; Saliency maps; Multiagent; Reinforcement Learning; Schack; Perturbation; Saliency maps; Multiagent; Reinforcement Learning;

    Abstract : The research and development field of computer chess improved more in the last 5 years than in the whole history of computers. Unfortunately these unprecedented results comes with techniques that don’t leave much space to intuition and comprehensibility for humans. READ MORE

  6. 5. The chemical evolution of the Milky Way: pushing APOGEE to higher precision and accuracy

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

    Author : Erik Fridén; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In the recent decade, a rapid increase in all-sky spectroscopic surveys has occurred, and with it, the wealth of observational data and information on our Galaxy. Consequently, numerous detections of new structures, such as new open clusters, accreted and in-situ components, are discovered. READ MORE
