Present work aims at evaluation of contemporary comprehensive detailed kinetic mechanisms for ethylene combustion, including the Konnov mechanism, LLNL nButane mechanism, San Diego (UCSD) mechanism and USC mechanism. These models have been validated by extensive comparison with available experimental data on ethylene ignition and flame propagation. The experimental data from the literature have be
Animals use vision over a wide range of light intensities, from dim starlight to bright sunshine. For animals active in very dim light the visual system is challenged by several sources of visual noise. Adaptations in the eyes, as well as in the neural circuitry, have evolved to suppress the noise and enhance the visual signal, thereby improving vision in dim light. Among neural adaptations, spati
The development of new separation techniques is an important task in protein science. Herein, we describe how anionic and cationic lipid-based liquid crystalline nanoparticles can be used for protein separation. The potential of the suggested separation methods is demonstrated on green fluorescent protein (GFP) samples for future use on more complex samples. Three different CEC-LIF approaches for
The evolution of adaptive phenotypic plasticity relies on the presence of cues that enable organisms to adjust their phenotype to match local conditions. Although mostly studied with respect to nonsocial cues, it is also possible that parents transmit information about the environment to their offspring. Such anticipatory parental effects' or adaptive transgenerational plasticity' can have importa
This paper examines the potential benefits of applying next best view planning to sequential 3D reconstruction from unordered image sequences. A standard sequential structure-and-motion pipeline is extended with active selection of the order in which cameras are resectioned. To this end, approximate covariance propagation is implemented throughout the system, providing running estimates of the unc

Changes in evolving software systems are often managed using an issue repository. This repository may contribute to information overload in an organization, but it may also help navigating the software system. Software developers spend much effort on issue triage, a task in which the mere number of issue reports becomes a significant challenge. One specific difficulty is to determine whether a new
Outdoor ranges are commonly used for accurate RCS measurements of full scale vehicles with or without camouflage. Furthermore, ISAR processing is often used to obtain high quality imagery of the objects. However, these images do not show the vehicles in the environment where they are supposed to operate. This paper describes a ground based SAR system that is used to make accurate measurements on v
Popular Abstract in Swedish Datorer har blivit en viktig del inom den moderna medicinen. Resultat från patientundersökningar såsom bilder, kurvor och mätvärden bearbetas ofta av datorer och presenteras sedan på ett överskådligt sätt för läkaren som grundar sitt svar på bland annat denna information. Denna doktorsavhandling beskriver hur datorn kan hjälpa till vid själva tolkningen av undersökningThe principal purposes of the studies reported in this thesis were to develop new methods to make computerised decision support systems in medicine both more reliable and fully automated. These aims were pursued in the belief that the solution to these problems will lead to an increased clinical use of such systems resulting in benefit to both patient and physician. In the first two studies, meth
Wave cycle distributions are notoriously difficult to calculate. Available analytic approximations, like those suggested by Longuet-Higgins (1983) and Cavanie, Arhan and Ezraty (1976) make use only of a few spectral moments, and are unreliable for moderate waves. To find distributions under general spectrum shape and parameters one has to use efficient numerical algorithms based on high-dimensiona
A radioactive variant of the cytostatic agent cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum(II), cisplatin, was synthesised from 191PtCl4. The 191Pt-cisplatin was found to be a sterile product of high radionuclide, radiochemical and chemical purity. The pharmacokinetics of platinum in tumour tissue and organs at risk of fourteen patients undergoing treatment with cisplatin were studied by exchanging a small fracti
In this paper, we give an overview of the background for, the ideas behind, and the challenges to be addressed in the project "Spatio-Temporal Filtering Methods for Enhancement and Separation of Speech Signals," which is funded by the Villum Foundation. The project aims at addressing the problem of enhancing and separating speech signals from noisy mixtures, a problem also known as the cocktail pa
