  1. 11. Avatar Selection in the Metaverse : How users choose their digital persona in VRChat

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för speldesign

    Författare :Andrej Dudoglo; Florian Ritter; [2022]
    Nyckelord :avatars; avatar selection; virtual reality; VRChat; metaverse; virtual social space; identity; representation; mirror-dwelling;

    Sammanfattning : 1 Abstract Current endeavors in the tech-industry to create the first true metaverse, alongside other things, sparked the emergence of interest around virtual avatars, namely in the NFT community. Given the complexity of design-challenges associated with creating an immersive metaverse, its avatars and the systems they evolve around, this paper aims to understand user desires and motivational patterns for avatar selection in VRChat, a game that resembles much of what a future metaverse could look like.

  2. 12. Effect of ash on catalytic activity for passive regeneration of catalytic diesel particulate filter : Evaluation of ash deposition by laboratory ageing

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Kemiteknik

    Författare :Gisela Engström; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Diesel Particulate Filter; Ash deposition; Laboratory Ageing; Catalytic Activity; Passive regeneration;

    Sammanfattning : Askackumulering i dieselpartikelfilter är ett välkänt problem som resulterar i ett förhöjt mottryck och påverkad prestanda hos fordonet. Däremot ges sällan uppmärksamhet åt filtrets katalytiska aktivitet och hur det påverkas vid förekomst av avgasföroreningar. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Sustainability-Linked Bonds: An investigation of premiums associated with sustainability-linked bonds

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

  5. 15. Estimation of dissolved organic carbon from inland waters using remote sensing data and machine learning

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Lasse Harkort; [2022]
    Nyckelord :dissolved organic carbon; machine learning; remote sensing; inland waters; water quality; open source data; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents the first attempt to estimate Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC) in inland waters over a large-scale area using satellite data and machine learning (ML) methods. Four ML approaches, namely Random Forest Regression (RFR), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Gaussian Process Regression (GPR), and a Multilayer Backpropagation Neural Network (MBPNN) were tested to retrieve DOC using a filtered version of the recently published open source AquaSat dataset with more than 16 thousand samples across the continental US matched with satellite data from Landsat 5, 7 and 8 missions.
