1. Reliable Detection of Water Areas in Multispectral Drone Imagery : A faster region-based CNN model for accurately identifying the location of small-scale standing water bodies
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Sammanfattning : Dengue and Zika are two arboviral viruses that affect a significant portion of the world population. The principal vector species of both viruses are Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. They breed in very slow flowing or standing pools of water. LÄS MER
2. Estimation of Water Depth from Multispectral Drone Imagery : A suitability assessment of CNN models for bathymetry retrieval in shallow water areas
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Sammanfattning : Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are the main vector species for dengue disease and zika, two arboviruses that affect a substantial fraction of the global population. These mosquitoes breed in very slow-moving or standing pools of water, so detecting and managing these potential breeding habitats is a crucial step in preventing the spread of these diseases.

3. In Vitro Assessment of Novel Compounds as Potential Pan-Coronavirus Therapeutics in SARS-CoV-2 and In Vitro Assessment of a Pan-Flavivirus Compound in Zika Virus
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologiSammanfattning : Through the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, it has become clear that the development of antivirals is essential for the health and wellbeing of the population. In this study, novel active site protease inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2 were tested for their inhibitory activity against the viral 3-Chymotrypsin like protease through the means of FRET based enzymatic assays. LÄS MER
4. Safety and Stability of Samples Stored on Filter Paper for Molecular Arbovirus Diagnosis
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologiSammanfattning : Expanding urbanization, climate change, and population growth contribute to increased transmission and spread of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses), many of which cause severe disease in humans. Pathogenic arboviruses include dengue, Zika, tick-borne encephalitis, and sindbis viruses, which together threaten more than half the global population. LÄS MER
5. Distribution Modelling of Gene Drive-Modified Mosquitoes and Their Effects on Wild Populations
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Emerging technologies have the potential to bring numerous new opportunities and solutions to the existing challenges, including addressing sustainable development goals (SDGs). Particular hopes are given to areas of the life that require our urgent action, these include but are not limited to medicine and food security. LÄS MER
