This study investigates the use of sequential UAV (Unmanned Airborne Vehicle) imagery and deep learning for crop yield predictions. Accurate crop yield predictions are crucial for mitigating food shortages and making informed agricultural decisions. This research uses different sequence lengths of UAV images across five wavelength bands to model winter wheat, spring wheat, and barley crop yield in

The last few years have seen a rapid expansion within the area of the Internet ofThings (IoT). For many IoT applications, such as asset tracking and distributedsensor networks, the problem of localization (i.e. determining the physical loca-tion of nodes in the network) is fundamental. For such applications, constraintson size, cost, and power consumption often prohibit the use of GPS. This thesis
Popular Science SummaryOat is one of the cereals that has been increasing in popularity during the last years. Oats are usually consumed for breakfast as a porridge, muesli, bread, or oat drinks which are included in, for example, smoothies. But why is it important to consume oats?There are two types of cholesterol, bad cholesterol and good cholesterol. The bad cholesterol can build up plaque insiCardiovascular diseases are among the most important causes of death in thedeveloped countries. These diseases are partly caused by too high cholesterolconcentrations in the blood. Avena sativa, oat, is the most common spieces of the genus Avena, and produced in huge amounts worldwide. Oats have been shown to have cholesterol-lowering properties since the 1960s. This property was originally attrib
This course aims to train, develop and mentally prepare the students to take active participation as leaders as well as co-workers in various organizations. This will entail the idea that organizations can be managed and studied through different perspectives which offer possibilities for reflection and different understandings of organizational phenomena. Above all, the course seeks to de
Att insjukna i en reumatisk ledsjukdom innebär betydande förändringar i livet, särskilt när det sker under barndomen eller ungdomen. Vår forskning omfattar flera reumatiska och inflammatoriska tillstånd, med särskilt fokus på juvenil idiopatisk artrit (JIA), men även andra sjukdomar som Kawasakis sjukdom och MIS-C (hyperinflammation efter COVID-19-infektion). Vi bedriver både klinisk- och laboratoBeing diagnosed with a rheumatic disease entails significant life changes, especially when it occurs during childhood or adolescence. Our research encompasses several rheumatic and inflammatory conditions, with a particular focus on juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), but also other diseases such as Kawasaki's disease and MIS-C (hyperinflammation following COVID-19 infection). We conduct both cli
How can we talk about musico-dramatic methods and models for operatic acting, and how do these relate to other kinds of acting? Observing the tendency of operatic professionals and peda-gogues to import concepts and ideals from theatrical and cinematic practices with non-operatic application of music, we reflect upon what possibilities and problems this discursive choice in-stils. Interestingly, w
Flera forskningsprojekt vid vår avdelning är inriktade på att bättre förstå mekanismer som ligger bakom utvecklingen av svåra infektionssjukdomar, fr.a. orsakade av bakterier men också av virus och svampar. Utgångspunkten för arbetet har ofta varit upptäckten av bakteriella ytproteiner och enzymer som på olika sätt interagerar med människans försvarssystem (medfödd och förvärvad immunitet och blodSeveral research projects at our Division are focused on molecular and cellular mechanisms that contribute to the development of severe infections caused preferentially by bacteria, but also by viruses and fungi. The starting point for this work has often been the discovery of bacterial surface proteins and enzymes that interact with human defenses (innate and acquired immunity and blood coagulati
In this thesis I examine how the aggressive fracking-debate in the Canadian Province New Brunswick from 2010 onwards, and how the three participating actors (the fracking-critical Native Canadian group Elsipogtog First Nation, the non-native fracking-critical group New Brunswick Anti-Shale Gas Alliance (NBASGA) and the fossil fuel company Southwestern Energy Resources Canada) view nature in differ
This opinion piece takes Google's response to the so-called COVID-19 infodemic, as a starting point to argue for the need to consider societal relevance as a complement to other types of relevance. The authors maintain that if information science wants to be a discipline at the forefront of research on relevance, search engines, and their use, then the information science research community needs
The current conjecture towards Nordic fertility rates brings the focus on the state of advancement of the second demographic transition (SDT) in the region. Nordic countries’ SDT developments have been unique as they have not experienced the same low fertility as other countries. Yet, since 2010, Iceland lost nearly a quarter of its fertility and reached an all-time low total fertility rate (TFR)

The objective of this thesis is to investigate how public Swedish family firms managed to perform during the most recent recession that started in 2008. Accounting data is combined with information regarding ownership structure to examine family firms’ performance in comparison to non-family firms. Our evidence implies that family firms perform better in terms of operating performance (return on a
Purpose: To study Intensity Modulated Proton Therapy (IMPT) with a new treatment planning optimization software. The aim was also to make a comparative study between existing conventional photon plans, Intensity Modulated X-ray Therapy (IMXT) plans and IMPT plans for three different cancer diagnoses. Materials and methods: The conventional photon plans and the IMXT plans were optimized in Oncentra
The focus of this international Master’s programme is to offer a critical approach to contemporary social, political and cultural issues in media and communications. We provide up-to-date engagement with key issues, theories and problems in media engagement, democracy and cultural citizenship, media industries and creativity, gender, health and society, audiences, popular culture and everyday life
