e summarize our successful efforts to support in-tuitive programming of industrial robotic assemblytasks with a knowledge based approach to the rep-resentation of skills. These skills can be specified,re-used, refined and transferred between robotswith the help of a multimodal interface combinedwith kinesthetic teaching. We argue that while itis certainly possible and suitable to have robotsacquir
Objective: Fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) is associated with life-threatening bleeding. This systematic review of postnatal management of FNAIT examined transfusion of human platelet antigen (HPA) selected or unselected platelets, and/or IVIg on platelet increments, hemorrhage and mortality. Study design: MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane searches were conducted until 11 May 20
Background: Ramsay Hunt syndrome (progressive myoclonus ataxia) is a descriptive diagnosis characterized by myoclonus, ataxia, and infrequent seizures. Often the etiology cannot be determined. Recently, a mutation in the GOSR2 gene (c.430G>T, p.Gly144Trp) was reported in 6 patients with childhood-onset progressive ataxia and myoclonus. Methods: We evaluated 5 patients with cortical myoclonus, atax
Introduction: Developing a national assistive products list is an important part of an assistive technology policy and requires knowledge of total population need, and product costs and benefits; information is not always readily available in low-income countries. Our experience in Tajikistan of developing a national assistive products list provides guidance for others. Methods: Two hundred people
User-related assessment of a level 3 automated driving system, providing functions such as lane- and distance-keeping, stop & go driving, lane change and overtaking, was carried out on a motorway in Germany with the aim to assess user-related issues of automated driving, i.e., behavior when driving with automation on motorways, user experiences, reactions and acceptance. Twenty-one persons dro
We propose drl-RPN, a deep reinforcement learning-based visual recognition model consisting of a sequential region proposal network (RPN) and an object detector. In contrast to typical RPNs, where candidate object regions (RoIs) are selected greedily via class-agnostic NMS, drl-RPN optimizes an objective closer to the final detection task. This is achieved by replacing the greedy RoI selection pro
The production of non-prompt D0 mesons from beauty-hadron decays was measured at midrapidity (|y| < 0.5) in Pb-Pb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of sNN = 5.02 TeV with the ALICE experiment at the LHC. Their nuclear modification factor (RAA), measured for the first time down to pT = 1 GeV/c in the 0–10% and 30–50% centrality classes, indicates a significant suppression, up to
Patients with cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) and Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia (SAB) are at risk of having infective endocarditis (IE). The objectives were to describe a Swedish population-based cohort of patients with CIED and SAB, to identify risk factors, and to construct a predictive score for IE. Patients over 18 years old in the Stockholm Region identified to have SAB in th
Objectives In an acute heart failure (AHF) setting, proenkephalin A 119-159 (penKid) has emerged as a promising prognostic marker for predicting worsening renal function (WRF), while bioactive adrenomedullin (bio-ADM) has been proposed as a potential marker for congestion. We examined the diagnostic value of bio-ADM in congestion and penKid in WRF and investigated the prognostic value of bio-ADM a
Despite their tiny brains, insects show impressive abilities when navigating over short distances during path integration or during migration over thousands of kilometers across entire continents. Celestial compass cues often play an important role as references during navigation. In contrast to many other insects, South African dung beetles rely exclusively on celestial cues for visual reference
The isoionic dilution method was used to measure the intrinsic viscosity, [η], and the Huggins coefficient, K(H), of two poly(acrylic acid) samples, 50% neutralized with NaOH, with molecular weights 5.0 x 103 (Na50PA5) and 4.8 x 104 (Na50PA48) at different ionic strengths. For Na50PA5 at low ionic strength, [η] is higher than the value predicted by a rigid-rod model. Assuming that the chain has re
Excessive generosity with information about one's private life or the private lives of others, known as ”oversharing”, appears to be an oft-noted phenomenon in the context of ”new” media. I have previously studied this phenomenon in connection with mobile phone conversations in public places. After having eavesdropped on, or maybe rather overheard, such conversations more systematically, I offered
Night,dawn,and dusk have abiotic features that differ from the day. Illumination,wind speeds,turbulence,and temperatures are lower while humidity may be higher at night. Nocturnal pollination occurred in 30% of angiosperm families across 68% of orders,97% of families with C3,two-thirds of fam-ilies with crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM),and 71% dicot families with C4 photosynthesis. Despite its w

Genom en rättsdogmatisk metod redogörs för lagtext, förarbeten, doktrin och relevant praxis på området, vilket är i enlighet med de utpekade rättskällorna inom rättskälleläran. Rätten till nödvärn i svensk rätt regleras i BrB 24 kap. 1 § och utmärks av aThe main purpose of this paper is to describe the law regarding the right of self-defense in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and England. Using a legal dogmatic method, it intends to describe the rights and possibilities being approved for a civilian in self-defense when being unrightfully attacked. This paper will also describe established law and analyze the right of self-defense as applicable in case l
Uppsatsen utreder när en person som arbetar hemifrån i Sverige men är anställd på ett bolag beläget utomlands kan medföra att ett fast driftställe uppstår. Mer specifikt undersöks det när hemarbete kan skapa ett fast driftställe vid tillämpningen av OECD:s modellavtal i den nationella rätten. Uppsatsens syfte är även att systematisera gällande rätt mot bakgrund av den senaste tidens rättsutvecklinThis thesis aims to investigate when teleworking creates a permanent establishment for a person working at home, in their personal residence in Sweden, but are employed by an enterprise established abroad. Specifically, the thesis studies when teleworking constitutes a permanent establishment during treaty application of OECD’s Model Tax Convention under Swedish domestic law. The purpose is also t
According to efficient market theory, all publicly available information is reflected in asset prices. In its semi-strong form, fundamental analysis cannot be used as a method to generate an abnormal return. Implying that abnormal return can only be achieved by incurring a higher level of risk. Joel Greenblatt (2006) shows that by applying simple fundamental analysis and ranking companies based on
While studies on the relationship between health, income, healthcare spending and productivity is generally consistent, little attention has been brought to the regional contexts. Meanwhile, a country like Sweden who is generally known for a well-established healthcare system and welfare state, experiences increasing regional disparities. This thesis investigates the relationship between health, i
Inom bioakustiken studeras ljud i naturen. Ljudbilden ger en inblick i ekosystemets mående, inte minst avslöjas vilka djurarter som rör sig i närområdet. Ljudinspelningar kan därmed användas för att studera biodiversitet, vilket blir en mer och mer akut fråga. Inspelningarna som används i sammanhanget är långa, ibland flera månader långa. Det är därför inte möjligt för en biolog att manuellt lyssBioacoustic sound event detection (SED) is a critical field for biodiversity monitoring, yet the high cost of annotating data poses significant challenges. This thesis explores the application of active learning strategies to reduce the amount of annotated data required for effective model training. This is done for a segment based SED model, where batch active learning is performed by querying fu
Skiljeförfarande är i svensk rätt jämställt med tvistlösning i allmän domstol beträffande dispositiva tvistemål. Grunden för tvistlösning genom skiljeförfarande, är ett skiljeavtal mellan parterna. Huruvida en uppkommen tvist ska lösas genom skiljeförfarande – när det finns ett skiljeavtal parterna emellan – är avhängigt skiljeavtalets (objektiva) omfattning. Skiljenämnden saknar behörighet att avArbitration is, according to Swedish law, equivalent to court proceeding, when it comes to dispositive disputes. The basis of dispute resolution through arbitration, is an arbitration agreement between the litigants. Whether a dispute should be resolved through arbitration – when there is an arbitration agree-ment between the litigants – is dependent on the scope of their arbitration agreement. Th
