The structure tensor is a powerful tool describing the local intensity structure of an image or image sequence. In this paper we give a model for the noise distribution of the components of the tensor. In order to do so we have also investigated some properties of the gamma distribution. We show that, given an input image corrupted with Gaussian noise, the noise in the structure tensor can be modeThe structure tensor is a powerful tool describing the local intensity structure of an image or image sequence.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Städer har kommit att framstå som alltmer drivande i arbetet med att ställa om till ett ekologiskt hållbart samhälle. Utöver att genomföra statliga direktiv eller fokusera på klassiskt kommunala uppgifter som fysisk planering eller renhållning, har kommunala politiker och tjänstemän alltmer kommit att driva en egen miljöpolitik på lokal nivå. Ett exempel är energi- och Local governments are increasingly taking the initiative in environmental governance. But can they make any difference in addressing current environmental challenges, which are becoming more and more global in scope? This PhD thesis explores and analyses the outcomes of proactive initiatives in the field of building energy efficiency, and the governance approaches taken. It addresses outcomes both

Cities are seen as one of the leading forces in making our societies sustainable and resource efficient. The latest trends of sharing homes, cars, bikes, tools and other goods are fast entering our urban lives. The sharing economy is a consumption-production mode in a city, in which value is generated through transactions between peers or organisations that offer access to their idling or underuti

The overarching objective of the studies in this thesis is to solve issues associated with the current district heating development in order to improve the efficiency, and thus the environmental performance, of district heating systems. More specifically, the aim is to solve issues related to prosumers and bottlenecks in district heating networks.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the exposure of the coastal population of Kalimantan, Indonesia changed as a result of coastal mangrove loss and population growth. The change of exposure has therefore been calculated through the loss of mangrove biomass, through deforestation and degradation, over time, as well the increase in population living within 10km2 of disturbed mangroves. TheMangrove ecosystems have the potential to provide a host of ecosystem services to the communities surrounding them. Dense, healthy, networks of mangroves are able to provide a buffer to coastlines against the increasingly frequent and intense storms, expected under the influence of climate change. Additionally, healthy, mangrove ecosystem provide coastal communities with other benefits such as mor

The aim of this thesis was to analyze and compare the effects of various types of speed-reducing measures (speed humps, raised pedestrian and cycle crossings, dynamic speed bumps, and combined solutions) on vehicle speeds and traffic safety on selected streets in Helsingborg, Sweden. The study focused on residential streets, school zones, and main roads with different traffic environments. The met

Aim: To value the importance of research on avian migration for the development and current status of Spanish ornithology. Results and Conclusions: Avian migration has always been an outstanding field in ornithology. This assertion is particularly true in Spain, as we illustrate here by discussing the contribution of migration research to both the scientific and historical development of Spanish o

Today’s society promises that people with disabilities can access anything, but in practice there are numerous obstacles, and the ways in which people deal with them can be easily missed or taken for granted by policy makers.

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) energy trading in microgrids is an innovative solution to local energy problems where consumers produce and sell their energy to their neighbours. The idea of a microgrid-based local energy trading enables decentralised energy system and strengthens consumers' participation. In the context of developing countries, microgrids play an important role in securing the mere access

Denmark is currently undertaking extensive groundwater mapping surveys in designated water interest areas. The mapping objectives include vulnerability assessments, delineation of existing aquifers, and localization of new deeper lying aquifers. Airborne electromagnetics are employed for regional mapping to depths of hundreds of meters.

A significant part of our cultural heritage consists of wood. Research on historical wooden structures and artefacts thereby provides knowledge of people’s daily lives and the society in which they lived. Dendrochronology is a well-established dating method of wood that can also provide valuable knowledge about climate dynamics, environmental changes, silviculture, and cultural transformations.

Popular Abstract in English Bolivia, as with other Latin American countries, is considered to be in an epidemiological transition due to the continued persistence of infectious diseases, and nutritional deficiencies related to poverty and food insecurity, together with an increase in chronic non-communicable diseases mainly related to lifestyle factors. The work presented in this thesis was focuseThe synergistic relation between nutritional deficiency and infection may have negative effects on the immune system, making individuals more vulnerable to infection. Zinc can affect the resistance to infections by modulating cytokine release, and by acting as a cofactor of thymulin, which induces the differentiation of immature T lymphocytes. To investigate the modulation of the immune response b

These two materials are often combined in the structures of wharfs and quays where most steel sheet pile walls have cap beams of reinforced concrete.

Popular Abstract in English Disasters continue to affect urban populations and housing infrastructure. They are intensified by extreme weather events caused by climate change. This situation has made the creation of synergies between climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk management (DRM) urgent. Despite their similarities and the recognised need to unite CCA and DRM efforts, the fieldsAn increasing number of disasters continue to affect urban populations and housing infrastructure. The overwhelming majority of them have been caused by climate-related events. This situation has made the creation of synergies between climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk management (DRM) urgent. Despite the recognised need to unite CCA and DRM efforts, the fields remain separate. Furt

10 000kalenderyears ago the first people wandered over the ice and onto Öland. Since then the vegeta-tion of Öland have been exposed to anthropogenic change and impact. During the Iron Age the population of Öland increases greatly due to strong connections to Rome. This time is commonly referred to as ”Ölands guldålder”. An increased population brought about an increase in land use which in turn b

crataegi Germar, 1824. The first specimen was found in the city of Malmö in the southernmost province of Sweden in the beginning of October 2020, where one individual had taken shelter from a heavy morning rain on a house wall, together with several other beetle species. The species was subsequently sought after during late autumn and winter by sifting litter beneath putative host plants, but it c
