The recently introduced capsule networks have already shown much success on image classification tasks. In this thesis, capsule networks are described and applied to a binary classification task, namely that of classifying hotspots from bone scintigraphy scans. The performance of capsule networks on this task is compared to that of convolutional neural networks. The results indicate that there is

I Sverige är en stor del av byggnadsbeståndet uppfört före 1973. Detta år har stor betydelse då vi detta år hade en oljekris som ändrade inställningen till energi och byggande.

Detta har gjort att det ställts hårda krav på modernt byggande som stramas åt med jämna mellanrum. De gamla byg
I Sveriges storstadsregioner råder idag en brist på bostäder. Vill man hyra en lägenhet ska man helst ha ställt sig i kö många år i förväg. Har man inte kötid, kontakter eller lust att betala ockerhyra för att bo i andra hand bör man ha en årsinkomst eller två i kontanter bara för att få låna ihop till en bostadsrätt.

The global production and use of plastic is increasing and a substantial part will end up in aquatic environments where it will degrade into micro- and nanoplastic particles (NPPs). NPPs will interact with naturally occurring biomolecules present in aquatic environments which in turn will affect the properties of the particles. The purpose of this study was thus to investigate how organic matter a
Södervärns bussterminal ligger mellan stadsdelen Möllevången och Södervärn i södra Malmö, och utgör tillsammans med Spårvägsgatan en tydlig gräns mellan dessa två stadsdelar.
