1. 11. Negotiating Political Power on Bornholm : The Anonymous Philander Letter and the Response of the Danish Absolutist State, 1737–1739

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Historiska institutionen

   Author : Matthías Aron Ólafsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Social history; early modern state; absolutism; Denmark; Bornholm; commissions; interaction; negotiation; political power; political culture;

   Abstract : This thesis studies the negotiation of political power between the Danish absolutist state, the local government on Bornholm, and its subjects there during the winter of 1738–1739. The aim is to better understand how political power was negotiated in a peripheral region of an early modern state, but also to explore what caused this interaction to begin with and why its eventual outcome was a compromise by the state.

3. 12. Towards a setup for narrowband terahertz generation through difference-frequency mixing of chirped ultrashort pulses

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

   Author : Isa Clementsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Terahertz radiation is a useful tool for inducing lower-energy excitations in matter, where it can be used to cause structural changes through direct interaction with the crystal lattice. Sub-picosecond optical pulses can be used to generate intense broadband terahertz pulses through optical rectification in nonlinear crystals, reaching peak electric fields of several MV/m and conversion efficiencies as high as a few percent.

4. 13. Domestication effects on the human-chicken relationship

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

   Author : Ruth Demree; [2023]
   Keywords : attentiveness; chicken; domestication; human-animal relationship; social cognition; social learning;

   Abstract : Domesticated species possess certain cognitive abilities that allow them to thrive in an environment with regular human interaction, and these interactions contribute to the overall human-animal relationship. Studying the human-animal relationship allows us to better understand how domesticated animals perceive and navigate their environment, which can then be used to improve their welfare. READ MORE

5. 14. Safe Reinforcement Learning for Social Human-Robot Interaction : Shielding for Appropriate Backchanneling Behavior

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

   Author : Mohamed Akif; [2023]
   Keywords : Human-Robot Interaction; Backchanneling; Social Robots; Safe Reinforcement Learning; Shielding; Recurrent Neural Network; Gated Recurrent Unit; Människa-Robot Interaktion; Uppbackning; Sociala Robotar; Säker Förstärkningsinlärning; Avskärmning; Återkommande Neurala Nätverk; Gated Återkommande Enhet;

   Abstract : Achieving appropriate and natural backchanneling behavior in social robots remains a challenge in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). This thesis addresses this issue by utilizing methods from Safe Reinforcement Learning in particular shielding to improve social robot backchanneling behavior. READ MORE

6. 15. Neoliberalism And The Swedish Model : A Critical Discourse Analysis of Crises facing the Swedish Rental Housing Market

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för geografi

   Author : Carolina Sandström; [2023]
   Keywords : ”Swedish rental housing market”; ”rent increase”; ”neoliberalism”; Critical Discourse Analysis”; ”collective negotiation system”; ”rental housing”;

   Abstract : This study utilises Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to examine media discourses on rent increases in the Swedish rental housing market and their reflection of crises within neoliberal regimes. Proceeding from newspaper articles from Dagens Nyheter, the largest newspaper in Sweden, two separate time periods are analysed, with one functioning as a control group. READ MORE
