  1. 16. Urban green spaces: Limits to growth?

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Antikens kultur och samhällsliv

    Author : Jacob Seabrook Alex; [2023]
    Keywords : Urban green space; densification; compact city; livable city; socio-ecological systems;

    Abstract : This research analyses attitudes to urban green spaces within the framework of compact city development models, using Uppsala as a case study and investigating the tension between growth and preservation. Compact city literature strongly promotes the importance of green space within urban environments for both social and ecological wellbeing and highlights what becomes an increasing requirement for this as populations within urban areas are densified, which is a concomitant goal of compact city models.

  3. 17. The EU’s Problem with Migration: A critical policy analysis and mobility justice

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi

    Author : David Penman; [2023]
    Keywords : mobility justice; migration; WPR; policy analysis; EU; relational space; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : Access to mobility and migration have become highly charged topics. Since the so-called refugee crisis in 2015 the EU has developed a holistic approach to control migration. The 2015 European Agenda on Migration is a policy which has significantly shaped mobility governance since being implemented. READ MORE

  4. 18. Scalable Reinforcement Learning for Formation Control with Collision Avoidance : Localized policy gradient algorithm with continuous state and action space

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

    Author : Andreu Matoses Gimenez; [2023]
    Keywords : Control theory; Multi-agent systems; Distributed systems; Formation control; Collision avoidance; Reinforcement learning; Teoria de control; Sistemes multiagent; Sistemes distribuïts; Control de formació; Prevenció de col·lisions; Reinforcement Learning; Reglerteknik; Multi-agent system; Distribuerade system; formationskontroll; Kollisionsundvikande; Reinforcement learning; Teoría de control; Sistemas multiagente; Sistemas distribuidos; Control de formación; Prevención de colisiones; Reinforcement Learning;

    Abstract : In the last decades, significant theoretical advances have been made on the field of distributed mulit-agent control theory. One of the most common systems that can be modelled as multi-agent systems are the so called formation control problems, in which a network of mobile agents is controlled to move towards a desired final formation.

  5. 19. Improving Behavior Trees that Use Reinforcement Learning with Control Barrier Functions : Modular, Learned, and Converging Control through Constraining a Learning Agent to Uphold Previously Achieved Sub Goals

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

    Author : Jannik Wagner; [2023]
    Keywords : Behavior Trees; Reinforcement Learning; Control Barrier Functions; Robotics; Artificial Intelligence; Verhaltensbäume; Verstärkendes Lernen; Kontrollbarrierefunktionen; Robotik; Künstliche Intelligenz; Beteendeträd; Förstärkningsinlärning; Kontrollbarriärfunktioner; Robotik; Artificiell Intelligens;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates combining learning action nodes in behavior trees with control barrier functions based on the extended active constraint conditions of the nodes and whether the approach improves the performance, in terms of training time and policy quality, compared to a purely learning-based approach. Behavior trees combine several behaviors, called action nodes, into one behavior by switching between them based on the current state. READ MORE

  6. 20. Hidden Communities Of Practice : An Exploratory Case Study on the Integration of Immigrant Women in Malmö

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för Urbana Studier (US)

    Author : Asmita Dalavi; Isabel Pontes; [2023]
    Keywords : Community of Practice; Mutual Engagement; Joint Enterprise; Shared Repertoire; Immigrant Women; Sweden; Malmö; Situated Learning; Knowledge Sharing;

    Abstract : Integration of immigrants has become a major focus of the EU policy agenda in recent years with Sweden being one of the first EU countries to address the need for immigrant integration. However, in recent times integration outcomes in Sweden have become unfavourable. READ MORE
