We define a new class of Gaussian processes on compact metric graphs such as street or river networks. The proposed models, the Whittle–Matérn fields, are defined via a fractional stochastic differential equation on the compact metric graph and are a natural extension of Gaussian fields with Matérn covariance functions on Euclidean domains to the non-Euclidean metric graph setting. Existence of th
Despite slow ongoing progress in increasing the representation of women in academia, women remain significantly under-represented at senior levels, in particular in the natural sciences and engineering. Not infrequently, this is downplayed by bringing forth arguments such as inherent biological differences between genders, that current policies are adequate to address the issue, or by deflecting t
We have carried out a prospective, longitudinal 30-year review of 95 adolescents who underwent total meniscectomy in one knee, and have compared the results with those observed 13 years earlier. All the medical records were scrutinized. Of the 63 patients reviewed clinically, 47 reported decreased sporting activity, although subjective satisfaction rose by 3% to 71%. The scores on the WOMAC ostcoa
In social work, practitioners are often faced with situations in which they have to choose an intervention. A fundamental ethical principle of social work practice is to minimize the risk of adverse effects caused by social services. To adhere to this principle, practitioners must be aware of the possible positive and negative effects of potential services. There are hundreds of interventions curr
This paper investigates the possibility of using empirical tool life models to predict tool life in a side milling application in a medium carbon steel, C 45E. To do this, an extensive dataset containing 46 data points with different machining parameters are produced. Four different empirical models: Taylor's equation, Colding's equation and Extended Taylor both using depth of cut and feed as well
We incorporate age-specific socio-economic interactions in a SIR macroeconomic model to study the role of demographic factors for the COVID-19 epidemic evolution, its macroeconomic effects and possible containment measures. We capture the endogenous response of rational individuals who choose to reduce inter- and intra-generational social interactions, consumption- and labor-related personal expos
Over the last few decades, a critical revision of prior scholarship concerning Roman domestic space has led to the reappraisal of the traditional account of the atrium suggesting a possibility for this space to be ‘unroofed’. Accordingly, scholars have proposed to look for a convergence of impulses previously cultivated in isolation combining new theoretical frameworks, and a careful examination o
This book provides a comprehensive and interdisciplinary examination of courtroom ethnography. This collection gathers international researchers from a multitude of disciplines to explore three central themes: doing courtroom ethnography, ethnographic studies of the courtroom, and contemporary and critical aspects of courtroom ethnography. It highlights the nuances, negotiations, and issues that e
A displaced femoral neck fracture in a person around retirement age, with some comorbidities, poses challenges in determining the optimal surgical treatment. The long-term result will be affected by the patient's overall health, their life style factors, and the patient's compliance with restrictions. Ideally, the surgeon has to foresee the vitality of the patient during his/her remaining life spa
When globular proteins fold into their characteristic three-dimensional structures, some amino acids are located on the surface, while others are situated in the protein core, where they cannot interact with molecules in the environment. Predicting the degree of solubility of amino acids provides insight into the function and relevance of residues. Residue accessibility is crucial for several prot
High-resolution phase-contrast 3D imaging using nano-holotomography typically requires collecting multiple tomograms at varying sample-to-detector distances, usually 3 to 4. This multi-distance approach limits temporal resolution, making it impractical for operando studies. Moreover, shifting the sample complicates reconstruction, requiring precise alignment, registration, and interpolation to cor
Ground truth datasets play a fundamental role as reference values in the training and evaluation of machine learning models. This position paper argues that ground truths are not neutral objective measurements that are naturally given, but instead that they are constructed by arrangements of humans and technologies. We argue that the ML community will benefit from articulating and discussing these
Craft is re-emerging in debates on improving contemporary work. A recurring theme in research on craft is its potential to thwart alienation, which is considered one of the central pathologies of modern work. Through a case study of the Swedish craft beer community, we examine craft’s potential for de-alienating work. Drawing on Jaeggi’s conception of alienation as a relation of relationlessness,
We extend the generalized information criteria framework for model selection to high-dimensional sparse statistical jump models, a recent class of statistically robust and computationally efficient alternatives to hidden Markov models. Specifically, we derive expressions for the model fit and complexity to construct suitable information criteria for hyperparameter selection. In extensive simulatio
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Målsättningen med detta projekt var att undersöka vilka trädslag som dominerar vid naturlig föryngring samt vilka faktorer som påverkar föryngringsresultatet. Bakgrunden till projektet är en önskan från Skogstyrelsen i Höör att få en bättre uppfattning om hur situationen ser ut i skogarna då allt fler skogsägare väljer naturlig föryngring på sina marker. Syftet This is a study of natural regeneration of trees in central Scania. Our goals with the study were to investigate what species of tree that dominates natural regeneration and which factors affect if a clear-cut forest will have a successful regeneration. The factors we studied in relation to plant density was climate, soil water, soil preparation, time for soil preparation, size of the clear-cut ar
