  1. 1. Glimmers in the Dark : Enhancing Museum Experiences Through Interaction Design at the Natural History Museum of Denmark

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för konst, kultur och kommunikation (K3)

    Author : Aline Zimmermann Maya Simoes; [2023]
    Keywords : Interaction design; installation; museum; public settings; physical interfaces; playful interaction; embodied interaction; families; children; user experience;

    Abstract : In a digital and fast-paced world, museums are constantly updating their practices to support visitors’ experiences and interactive exhibits are increasingly gaining popularity. I collaborated with the Natural History Museum of Denmark to design an interactive room for their upcoming new building, specifically for the exhibit with the working title “Night in the Open Land”.

  3. 2. Art Class Stinks : Exploring Olfactory Interaction Design and Its Potential to Enrich Learning in Art Education

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för konst, kultur och kommunikation (K3)

    Author : Maria Nikoli; [2022]
    Keywords : embodied; olfactory interaction; physical computing; art; education; olfactory display;

    Abstract : The sense of smell is crucial to everyday activities that make life pleasurable, such as eating, and it is also key to detecting danger, such as fire or rotten food. In addition, it is strongly linked with memory retrieval, it can induce affective states, and may even enhance the sense of presence in immersive environments. READ MORE

  4. 3. Modelling approach and avoidance behaviour : A deep learning approach to understand the human olfactory system

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

    Author : Frans Nordén; [2021]
    Keywords : Probabilistic Machine Learning; Variational Recurrent Neural Network; EEG; Approach and Avoidance behaviour; Frontal alpha asymmetry; Probabilistisk Maskininlärning; Variational Recurrent Neural Network; EEG; Approach and Avoidance behaviour; Frontal alpha asymmetri;

    Abstract : In this thesis we examine the question whether it is possible to model approach and avoidance behaviour with probabilistic machine learning. The results from this project will primarily aid in our collective understanding of human existence. READ MORE

  5. 4. Training of spider monkeys in a food-rewarded two-choice olfactory discrimination paradigm and assessment of olfactory learning and memory performance

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Biologi

    Author : Emmi Aineslahti; [2019]
    Keywords : Ateles geoffroyi; behavioral testing; discrimination learning; odor memory; olfaction; olfactory discrimination; olfactory learning; spider monkey;

    Abstract : There is little knowledge about olfactory learning in primates, even though primates are known to use olfaction in several behaviors including food selection and territorial defense. Therefore I assessed the olfactory learning and memory performance in five adult spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi) using a food-rewarded two-choice olfactory discrimination paradigm. READ MORE

  6. 5. Exercise-induced adult hippocampal neurogenesis and the effect of exercise and adult hippocampal neurogenesis on spatial learning and memory

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : André Sturesson; [2018]
    Keywords : adult hippocampal neurogenesis; AHN; exercise; exercise-induced AHN; spatial learning and memory;

    Abstract : It was long believed within the scientific community that the adult brain was unable to generate new neurons. In the end of the 1990s the consensus changed and it is since believed that the adult brain can and does generate new neurons after birth, a process referred to as adult neurogenesis. READ MORE
