The shape of a diffuse reflectance spectra can provide knowledge about tissue composition. By analysing this spectra one can, with the right evaluation methods, find out information about the tissue. With known absorption properties of the present tissue chromophores it is possible, with a curve fit algorithm, to find their volume fractions in any measured tissue. In this work, the usability of

Inledning: Den senaste finansiella krisen visade att finansiella regleringar behöver fokusera mer på likviditet för att motverka eventuella liknande kriser i framtiden. I den nya Basel III-regleringen finns likviditetsmåtten LCR (Liquidity Coverage Ratio) och NSFR (Net Stable Funding Ratio), som är ett kortsiktigt respektive ett långsiktigt mått på likviditet. NSFR är det mått som förefaller mest
Inom ämnet psykologi väcktes intresset för sambandet mellan personlighet och politisk- ideologisk åskådning under efterkrigstiden. En politisk psykologi tog form utifrån en ansats där personlighetsdrag betraktades som orsaker bakom ideologisk hemvist och politisk inriktning. Föreliggande studie hade två nutida modeller inom politisk psykologi som utgångspunkt, utformade som prediktionsmodeller. MoIn the science of psychology, the interest in the connection between personality and political and ideological worldview was born in the light of the second world war. A scientific approach of political psychology took shape, in which personality was seen as the cause of ideological attitudes and political preferences. This study has two models of political psychology in present days as the poin o

Too-big-to-fail has been a subject of controversy and has gained much attention in the course of the sub-prime financial crisis 2007-2009.

In this paper, we perform an analysis to examine the existence of too-big-to-fail impact on the banking sector in Switzerland during t
Studien intresserar sig i huvudsak för makrillens roll i Gunnar D Hanssons diktsamling "Olunn". Titeln är ett av fiskens fornnordiska namn, och boken i sig är en sorts "lyrisk monografi" över makrillen. Specifikt används posthumanistiska teoriapparater, i huvudsak hämtade från Jacques Derrida och Timothy Morton, för att undersöka Hanssons explicita ambition att hitta ett nytt

Two different approaches to data pre-treatment are adopted, followed by estimates of powe
The song of many songbirds can be thought of as consisting of variable sequences of a finite set of syllables. A common approach in understanding the structure of these songs is to model the syllable sequences with a Markov Model. The Markov Model can either allow one-to-one (Markov Chain), many-to-many (Hidden Markov Model) or many-to-one (Partially Observed Markov Model) state to syllable mappin

This study was performed to investigate whether elevated escape pathways in railway tunnels are a cost-effective measure from a socioeconomic perspective. Only future construction of single track drilled tunnels, designated for evacuation without external help, was considered in this report. Literature studies, interviews, and scenario analyses were used to perform a costbenefit evaluation. The st
