6. If a Tree Falls in the Forest - Three Interventions in the Swedish Forest to Come
University essay from KTH/ArkitekturAbstract : Our thesis project consists of three architectural interventions: The Mushroom, The Gnat and The Snake, fitting into a vision of a Swedish forest managed in a more sustainable way. A future in which the practice of clear-felling has been abandoned in favor of alternative methods falling under the umbrella term Continuous Cover Forestry (CCF). READ MORE

7. Shape depiction using Local Light Alignment : Evaluating the shape enhancement capabilities of the Local Light Alignment technique at multiple scales
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Local Light Alignment is a new shading based technique in the field of shape depiction, a field which concerns itself with techniques to represent and enhance the three-dimensional (3D) shape of objects in two-dimensional (2D) visual media. The main idea of Local Light Alignment is to locally adjust the incoming direction of light to create contrast in a way that enhances the perception of shape and surface detail. READ MORE

8. Deep Learning-Based Depth Estimation Models with Monocular SLAM : Impacts of Pure Rotational Movements on Scale Drift and Robustness
University essay from Linköpings universitet/DatorseendeAbstract : This thesis explores the integration of deep learning-based depth estimation models with the ORB-SLAM3 framework to address challenges in monocular Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), particularly focusing on pure rotational movements. The study investigates the viability of using pre-trained generic depth estimation networks, and hybrid combinations of these networks, to replace traditional depth sensors and improve scale accuracy in SLAM systems.

9. Evaluation of the ERA5-Land dataset for estimation of soil moisture in the permafrost region
University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografiAbstract : The permafrost region covers a vast area of land surface on the northern hemisphere,storing large amounts of carbon. Unfortunately, climate warming leads to permafrostthaw altering the hydrothermal state of permafrost soils. Due to the remoteness of thepermafrost region, access to field measurements is restricted.

10. Location, location, location : A spatial analysis of the impact of artisanal and industrial mining sites on the local likelihood of violence.
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskningAbstract : This research aims to answer the research question: what is the impact of mining sites on the local likelihood of violence? In contrast to most previous research, I do not only consider large-scale industrial mining but also smaller artisanal mining sites. In addition, this study looks at both two-sided and one-sided violence. READ MORE
