  1. 1. Reevaluating the Notion of Peace : Do Our Current Measurements Truly Reflect Peace?

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för samhällsstudier (SS)

    Author : Sanna Besic; [2024]
    Keywords : Peace Measuring; Peace Studies; Peace Conceptualisation; Peace Measurements; Violence; Direct Violence; Structural Violence; Cultural Violence;

    Abstract : There is an ongoing theme within the field of peace conceptualisation to create and to add to the meaning of peace. This has caused a fragmented field with over 130 conceptualisations.

  3. 2. Predicting Lithium-Ion Battery State of Health using Linear Regression

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Niklas Sundberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Lithium-Ion; Multiple Linear Regression; State of Health; Voltage Deviation;

    Abstract : Knowledge of battery health is very important. It provides insight into the capacity of a given system and allows the operators to plan ahead more efficiently. But measuring state of health (SoH) of a battery is difficult, and takes time. More importantly, the battery needs to be taken out of operation to be analysed correctly. READ MORE

  5. 4. Data-Driven Reachability Analysis of Pedestrians Using Behavior Modes : Reducing the Conservativeness in Data-Driven Pedestrian Predictions by Incorporating Their Behavior

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

    Author : August Söderlund; [2023]
    Keywords : Data-driven reachability analysis; Autonomous vehicles; Automated safety; Autonomous situational awareness; Datadriven nåbarhetsanalys; Autonoma fordon; Automatiserad säkerhet; Autonom situationsmedvetenhet;

    Abstract : Predicting the future state occupancies of pedestrians in urban scenarios is a challenging task, especially considering that conventional methods need an explicit model of the system, hence introducing data-driven reachability analysis. Data-driven reachability analysis uses data, inherently produced by an unknown system, to perform future state predictions using sets, generally represented by zonotopes. READ MORE
