  1. 1. Age Differences and the Impact of Mental Imagery in a Method of Loci Training Task

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Author : Mari Wingård; [2023]
    Keywords : Mental imagery; memory enhancement; memory training; Method of Loci; age; age-related decline; aphantasia;

    Abstract : Gaining knowledge about methods of memory enhancement is important because it allows us to develop effective strategies and interventions to increase memory performance, optimize cognitive function, and potentially alleviate memory-related challenges such as age-related cognitive decline or memory disorders. This thesis aims to examine the influence of age on self-reported mental imagery (MI) experiences and investigate the potential effects of age and MI on memory training performance using the Method of Loci (MoL).

  3. 2. Pilot Study on Working Memory : Investigating Single Trial Decoding to Find the Best Stimulus and Target for a Future Personalized Neurofeedback

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Erik Gasparini; [2023]
    Keywords : Visual working memory; Personalised neurofeedback; Visual stimulus; Targeted brain region.;

    Abstract : A standard Neurofeedback approach to mitigate the working memory decline in some fragile groups (elderly, subjects affected by stroke or Alzheimer's disease) can be suboptimal for some patients. The goal of this research is to investigate which visual stimulus (among colour, geometrical shape, direction, and symbol) is the most suited for each of the six healthy participants and which brain areas are the most discriminative, during the maintenance of a presented stimulus in a retro-cue-based working memory experiment.

  4. 3. Memory and Inferences of Cheating Behavior: Age and Interindividual Differences in Trust Impact Decision Bias

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Author : Hannah Tucker; [2023]
    Keywords : Cheating sensitivity; social contract theory; integrative encoding; general trust scale; decision bias; generalization; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : The social contract theory hypothesis of a memory enhancement for cheaters remains a continued debate, but few studies have addressed the potential inferential role of such an enhancement. Moreover, little research has been conducted on interindividual characteristics and how these may impact cheating sensitivity. READ MORE

  5. 4. Enhancing Object Detection in Infrared Videos through Temporal and Spatial Information

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

    Author : Shi Jinke; [2023]
    Keywords : Object Detection; Infrared Video Dataset; Temporal and Spatial Information; Objektdetektion; infraröd videodatauppsättning; tids- och rumslig information;

    Abstract : Object detection is a prominent area of research within computer vision. While object detection based on infrared videos holds great practical significance, the majority of mainstream methods are primarily designed for visible datasets. READ MORE
