  1. 26. Exploring Feature Selection Techniques for Machine Learning-based Melanoma Skin Cancer Classification

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

    Author : Thomas Eriksson Mueller; Viktor Fornstad; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine Learning; Feature Selection; Melanoma; Computer Aided Diagnosis; Bachelor Thesis; Maskininlärning; Attributurval; Melanom; Datorstödd Diagnostik; Kandidatarbete;

    Abstract : One of the most globally common types of cancer is skin cancer, where melanoma is the most deadly form. An important and promising tool for diagnosing diseases such as skin cancer is computer aided diagnostics, a tool which utilizes machine learning to predict and classify cancer. READ MORE

  2. 27. Phenotype and function of imiquimod-treated MUTZ-3 derived Langerhans cells in potential psoriatic 3D skin model

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Author : Emilie Allentoft Schousboe; [2023]
    Keywords : 3D models; imiquimod; Langerhans cells; MUTZ-3 cell line; pro-inflammatory cytokines; psoriasis;

    Abstract : Upon encounter of an antigen, epidermis-resident Langerhans cells (LCs) become activated and present the processed antigen to T cells of the draining lymph nodes, resulting in tolerogenic or inflammatory responses. In psoriasis plaques, skin homeostasis is disrupted and replaced by an inflammatory dermatitis. READ MORE

  3. 28. Överrörlighet hos ridhästar : en enkätstudie riktad till hästägare

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Abstract : Detta studentarbete handlar om hur rörliga varmblodshästar i Sverige anses vara enligt sina ägare. Det finns ingen definition för överrörlighet hos häst. Överrörlighet är något som på humansidan kan associeras med en sjukdom som heter EhlersDanlos syndrom och hos häst har en del sjukdomar liknats med denna. READ MORE

  4. 29. Determining Important Features for Melanoma Classification Through Feature Selection

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

    Author : Vilmer Jonsson; Tor Strimbold; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Skin cancer is a common disease and malignant melanoma is the most dangerous form of it. Although dangerous, the survival rate of melanoma patients is high if the diagnosis is made at an early stage. Computer aided diagnostics has been shown to have potential in accurately diagnosing the disease utilizing machine learning. READ MORE

  5. 30. Body patterning and cognition in cephalopods - a literature review

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Georgina Chu; [2023]
    Keywords : cephalopods; octopus; body patterning; colour alteration; chromatophores; pigment cells; cognition; learning and memory;

    Abstract : Cephalopods are a valuable model for studying the evolution of cognition due to their distinctive brain structure, organisation, and connectivity patterns compared to vertebrates. The development of large brains and behavioural complexities are believed to be triggered by evolutionary pressures stemming from factors like heightened predation, more demanding foraging conditions, and intense mating competition.
