Movement patterns and displacement of a soil insect

Popular Abstract in Swedish En insekts rörelsemönster i en värld av dofter Jag har videofilmat hur en marklevande insekt, Protaphorura armata, rör sig på en plan yta, hur de gör när de stöter på hinder, dofter från mat, artfränder och fiender. Jag har också använt matematiska modeller för att beskriva deras rörelsemönster. P. armata är en s.k. hoppstjärt men saknar förmågan att hoppa som flertaleMovement and dispersal are important determinants of the spatial distribution and persistence of animal populations in a heterogeneous environment. I studied the small-scale movement pattern of a soil-living insect, Protaphorura armata (Collembola) by using a video-equipment. I added chemical cues, food and conspecifics to their environment and evaluated the effects of external cues on the movemen

An algebraic/analytic method for reconstruction from image correspondences

A method for the reconstruction and motion problems is presented, under the assumption that a number of point correspondences in a pair of images are known. A geometric and algebraic theory is based on invariance properties of point configuration under affine and projective transformations. In particular, a characterization of those image pairs which correspond to the same point configuration in a

Probing the linguistic encoding of placement and removal events in Swedish

This paper explores the linguistic encoding of placement and removal events in Swedish. Drawing on elicited spoken data, it provides a unified approach to caused motion descriptions. The results show uniform syntactic behaviour of placement and removal descriptions and a consistent asymmetry between placement and removal in the semantic specificity of verbs. The results also reveal three further s

The Television Studies Reader

The Television Studies Reader offers students a roadmap to contemporary issues in the expanding and dynamic field of television studies. Thirty eight cutting edge essays lay out a wide array of approaches to the study of the changing phenomenon that is 'television around the world.'

Solar Wind and Geomagnetic Activity - Predictions Using Neural Networks

This thesis shows how artificial neural networks (ANNs) can be applied to predict geomagnetic activity from solar-wind data. It introduces and summarizes five papers where development of ANN models are reported, and where predictions of geomagnetic activity are discussed. The studies cover geomagnetic disturbances characterized by global-scale indices and geomagnetic variations that are locally ob
