Obesity is considered by many as a lifestyle choice rather than a chronic progressive disease. The Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) SOPHIA (Stratification of Obesity Phenotypes to Optimize Future Obesity Therapy) project is part of a momentum shift aiming to provide better tools for the stratification of people with obesity according to disease risk and treatment response. One of the challeng
Recent advances in therapeutics are now providing a wide range of options for adults and children living with hemophilia. Although therapeutic choices are also increasing for the youngest individuals with severe disease, challenges remain about early management decisions, as supporting data are currently limited. Parents and healthcare professionals are tasked with helping children achieve an incl
Genetic variations are investigated in human and many other organisms for many purposes (e.g., to aid in clinical diagnosis). Interpretation of the identified variations can be challenging. Although some dedicated prediction methods have been developed and some tools for human variants can also be used for other organisms, the performance and species range have been limited. We developed a novel v
Inspections are widely used in the software engineering community as efficient contributors to reduced fault content and improved product understanding. In order to measure and control the effect and use of inspections, the fault content after an inspection must be estimated. The capture-recapture method, with its origin in biological sciences, is a promising approach for estimation of the remaini
Akademi och bransch har över decennier identifierat faktorer som påverkar folks val av färdsätt. Faktorerna har i förlängningen föranlett en lång rad av åtgärder som visat sig kunna öka kollektivtrafikens marknadsandel, vilket är avgörande för ett mer hållbart transportsystem. Dock innebär såväl skiljande omständigheter som sammanfallande åtgärdsimplementeringar en kunskapslucka kring vilka effektFactors determining the modal choice of travellers have been identified in plenty by both academia and the transport sector. In turn, these have provided an array of measures and strategies proven effective in increasing ridership—necessary to ensure a sustainable transport system. With differing circumstances and often coinciding implementations, little is, however, known about what effect can be
With mobile phones often being used to type sensitive information, it is important that they remain secure and leak no information. One conceivable channel for information leakage, though, is the motion sensors accelerometer and gyroscope, sensors that require no permission to be used by an app. Do the data they produce contain information about the keys being typed? To answer this question, thi
Höganäs AB is developing an axial flux machine, where an even airgap between the stator and rotor is a vital parameter when designing a well functioning machine. It is believed that the stator is the component that introduces the biggest variations to the airgap, and that is why the stator is the object of investigation for this thesis. The stator is made of metal powder and the steps in the manuf
Tracking activities have lately been very popular in smartphones, which requires that the devices are able to classify activities correctly. Since this type of devices has limitations in both power consumption and computational performance, it is important to keep these factors to a minimum. Therefore, the low cost of the accelerometer sensor is a good platform to build a classification on. Althou
Purpose: To examine any associations between postural asymmetries, postural ability, and pain for children with cerebral palsy in sitting and supine positions. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 2,735 children with cerebral palsy, 0-18 years old, reported into the Swedish CPUP registry. Postural asymmetries, postural ability, the gross motor function classification system levels I–V, sex, age and
Crowdsourcing is a relatively new technique which aims to make a specific group of people contribute solutions to simple tasks or problems that are published online by some organization. For this they get some reward, which is usually economic in nature. This technique can be embraced by any kind of company, and since it is done online, it can turn out to be a bit problematic, especially when it c
The objective of this thesis is to investigate the use of commercial devices as user interfaces on a quadrotor and to investigate solutions to the problem of slung load control. A slung load is a uniform mass attached with a wire which is allowed to swing freely to the bottom of the quadrotor. The purpose of substituting the radio control (RC) controller with a commercial smartphone is that they a
Åberopandet av bevis i de svenska domstolarna styrs av principen om fri bevisföring, som ger parterna rätt att presentera de bevis de önskar, utan krav om att beviset ska ha tillkommit i enlighet med viss reglering. Från denna princip finns dock vissa undantag. Bevis som härstammar från en anonym källa har ansetts utgöra ett sådant undantag, på grund av oförenligheten med processrättens krav och pThe presenting of evidence within Swedish courts is controlled by the principle of free production of evidence, which gives the parties a right to refer to any evidence, without any requirements regarding its conception. There are however a few exceptions. Evidence originating from anonymous sources has been considered an exception, due to the discrepancy between such evidence and the principles o
Objectives: – To quantify the risk of incident psychiatric morbidity after community-acquired sepsis and assess whether new chronic diseases mediate the association. Design: – Nationwide, population-based matched register cohort; hazards estimated with weighted Cox regression. Setting: – Sweden, linking the National Quality Sepsis Registry, National Patient Register, Prescribed Drug Register, and
In this thesis a comparative study of Sweden and Thailand was conducted in order to find out why Sweden is top-ranked and Thailand low-ranked on an e-learning readiness scale. More specifically, I was focusing on the net universities in Sweden and in Thailand. The net universities and the countries were contrasted in order to find out, not only if the differences or similarities had any influence
A classical and central problem in the theory of water waves is to classify parameter regimes for which non-trivial solitary waves exist. In the two-dimensional, irrotational, pure gravity case, the Froude number Fr (a non-dimensional wave speed) plays the central role. So far, the best analytical result Fr < √2 was obtained by Starr (1947 J. Mar. Res., vol. 6, pp. 175–193), while the numerical ev
Context Developing compilers and static analysis tools (“language tools”) is a difficult and time-consuming task. We have previously presented property probes, a technique to help the language tool developer build understanding of their tool. A probe presents a live view into the internals of the compiler, enabling the developer to see all the intermediate steps of a compilation or analysis rather
