Prospects to use III-V technology to increase the performance of key millimeter wave circuits are discussed. We use 60 GHz wavelet generators to form coherent pulses with controllable pulse lengths down to 25 ps under low-power operation. The transmitters are used to demonstrate transmission at high data rates and very low bit-error-rates with simple modulation schemes (OOK) in direct links over s

Structural variants (SVs) rearrange large segments of DNA1 and can have profound consequences in evolution and human disease2,3. As national biobanks, disease-association studies, and clinical genetic testing have grown increasingly reliant on genome sequencing, population references such as the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD)4 have become integral in the interpretation of single-nucleotide v

The ice giants Uranus and Neptune are the least understood class of planets in our solar system but the most frequently observed type of exoplanets. Presumed to have a small rocky core, a deep interior comprising ∼70% heavy elements surrounded by a more dilute outer envelope of H 2 and He, Uranus and Neptune are

The demographic changes in society with growing numbers of elderly subjects will inevitably increase admission rates to acute emergency departments (AMU). Early discharge might augment emergency readmissions due to a relapse in medical conditions. Our aim was to study precipitating factors in frail elderly patients who got the diagnosis 'lack of community support' after initial medical examination

Object segmentation is the first step towards more advanced robotic behaviors, as robots need to localize objects before attempting tasks such as grasping or manipulation. A robot vision system should be able to provide accurate object hypotheses in reasonably high frame rates, using images and possibly also depth data. This work proposes a fixation-based object segmentation algorithm able to cope

This article addresses the dilemmas concerning legislation, individual autonomy and the reality of everyday life for people coping with dementia. We describe and analyse decision-making in relation to older people with dementia in Sweden, within the area of social work regulated by the Social Services Act and the Parental Act. Swedish legislation is based on the individual’s autonomy and capacity

The need to study the effects of technology and science in development has been increasingly emphasized in recent years. At the same time, India and China have emerged on the world scene as large developing countries with rich, often contrasting, experiences of the application of technology and science to development. Comparative research on the Indian and Chinese experiences thus carries a great

We propose and study a fully efficient method to estimate associations of an exposure with disease incidence when both, incident cases and prevalent cases, i.e., individuals who were diagnosed with the disease at some prior time point and are alive at the time of sampling, are included in a case-control study. We extend the exponential tilting model for the relationship between exposure and case s

Recently, seven Earth-sized planets were discovered around the M-dwarf star TRAPPIST-1. Thanks to transit-timing variations, the masses and therefore the bulk densities of the planets have been constrained, suggesting that all TRAPPIST-1 planets are consistent with water mass fractions on the order of 10%. These water fractions, as well as the similar planet masses within the system, constitute st

The mass spectrometry (MS)-based analysis of free polysaccharides and glycans released from proteins, lipids and proteoglycans increasingly relies on databases and software. Here, we review progress in the bioinformatics analysis of protein-released N- and O-linked glycans (N- and O-glycomics) and propose an e-infrastructure to overcome current deficits in data and experimental transparency. This

We propose to use two-body regularized finite-range pseudopotential to generate nuclear energy density functional (EDF) in both particle-hole and particle-particle channels, which makes it free from self-interaction and self-pairing, and also free from singularities when used beyond mean field. We derive a sequence of pseudopotentials regularized up to next-to-leading order and next-to-next-to-lea

En signal är en fysisk kvantitet som varierar med någon oberoende variabel, t.ex. tid eller rum, som förmedlar information. En signal vars statistiska egenskaper är konstant i tid kallas stationär, medan signaler vars egenskaper varierar med tiden kallas icke-stationära, vilket är de vanligaste i naturen. Denna avhandling fokuserar på statistiska metoder för icke-stationära signaler. De applikatioThis thesis focuses on statistical methods for non-stationary signals. The methods considered or developed address problems of stochastic modeling, inference, spectral analysis, time-frequency analysis, and deep learning for classification. In all the contributions, an example of a biomedical application of the proposed method is provided, either to electroencephalography (EEG) data or to Heart Ra

Evacuation models can adopt different approaches for the simulation of human behaviour in fire. This paper provides an overview of the most commonly used modelling methods to represent the evacuation process in a fire scenario. This is presented through a structure matching the engineering time-line model of evacuation. The evacuation model development process is discussed considering both data-dr

Social learning, especially triple-loop social learning involving institutional and governance changes, has great potential to address urban water issues such as flooding, drought, and pollution. It facilitates urban transition and the adoption of more systemic approaches and innovations. Social learning in water governance is a growing field, but the triple-loop learning concept remains vague and
