In this work, an active learning pipeline is presented that allows for comparative tests between 3 different types of data scoring methods, uncertainty selection, diversity selection, and loss selection. Tests and parameter sweeps indicate that hyperparameters like reshuffling and early stopping are required to ensure fair comparisons. We then apply our pipeline to test some naive scoring methods

One of the most important parameters to measure in the fire discipline is the heat release rate (HRR). Therefore it is very important that these measurements are accurate and as correct as possible. The most common method for measuring heat release rate of fires is the OCC method (oxygen consumption calorimetry). The method is based on the relation between oxygen in the surroundings and the ex
Mjukvara i underrättelseinhämtning har uppmärksammats via ett antal större skandaler. Dessa skandaler har bidragit till en intensiv debatt om metodens legalitet. Användandet av mjukvara är dock inte på något avgörande sätt väsensskilt från klassiska inhämtningsmetoder som telefonavlyssning utan lyder under ett liknande legalt ramverk.
