1. 1. Messages from the deep: A reception study of Denis Villeneuve's Dune

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för kulturvetenskaper

   Author : Sarah R. Kern; [2024-02-06]
   Keywords : Hegemony; Production Reception; Discourse; Dominant Negotiated Oppositional; Dune; Representation; Reception study; convergence culture; science fiction; participation culture; fandom;

   Abstract : This essay uses Pierre Bourdieus habitus, symbolic capital, Social fields, Stuart Halls representation theory and Encoding/Decoding system, as well as Henry Jenkins concept of convergence culture and media convergence, to conduct a reception study of Denis Villeneuves 2021 adaption of the science fiction movie Dune. The material collected for the reception study is collected in the form of reviews and features from experts in cinema, juxtaposed against material collected from YouTube in the form of reviews, reaction videos and video essays from social groups sectioned around cinephiles and science fiction fandom.

3. 2. Multicriteria Evaluation in Real Estate Land-use Suitability Analysis: The case of Volos, Greece

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Panagiotis Dimitrios Tsachageas; [2024]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; Real Estate; Multicriteria Evaluation; Fuzzy; AHP; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : The integration of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) into real estate analysis has long been considered an interesting interdisciplinary pursuit, but has yet to become mainstream. Despite the increasing academic focus over the last twenty years, this endeavour has mostly been approached from the scientific side of Geography. READ MORE

4. 3. Self-Supervised Learning for Tabular Data: Analysing VIME and introducing Mix Encoder

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Max Svensson; [2024]
   Keywords : Machine Learning; Self-supervised learning; AI; Physics; Medicine; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : We introduce Mix Encoder, a novel self-supervised learning framework for deep tabular data models based on Mixup [1]. Mix Encoder uses linear interpolations of samples with associated pretext tasks to form useful pre-trained representations. READ MORE

5. 4. A type-driven approach for sensitivity checking with branching

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

   Author : Daniel Freiermuth; [2023-10-24]
   Keywords : Computer; science; computer science; thesis; differential privacy; type system; sensitivity; branching;

   Abstract : Differential Privacy (DP) is a promising approach to allow privacy preserving statistics over large datasets of sensitive data. It works by adding random noise to the result of the analytics. Understanding the sensitivity of a query is key to add the right amount of noise capable of protecting privacy of individuals in the dataset. READ MORE

6. 5. Interactive Visualization of Network Models in JavaScript/TypeScript for Web-based Applications

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

   Author : Morrow Erik; [2023]
   Keywords : Networks; Information visualization; Information Theory; Interactive visualization; Nätverk; Informationsvisualisering; Informationsteori; Interaktiv visualisering;

   Abstract : Networks of nodes and links are powerful tools to model complex systems, however, when the number of nodes and links grows to the thousands then even the network becomes too complex to comprehend unless we can simplify and highlight the networks underlying structure. The map equation is a method developed by the researchers at IntegratedScience Lab that uses an information theoretic approach to reveal community structure using the flow of information on the network modeled with random walks.
