    Författare :Ida Marie Palmgren Pedersen; Mohammad Shakeeb; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Handcycle; lifting device; spinal cord injury; assistive technology;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Handcycling is an excellent exercise for people with spinal cord injuries. However, some users experience barriers to transferring to the handcycle. The most common barriers are the height difference between the handcycle and sitting surface and dependence on others. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Implementing SAE Techniques to Predict Global Spectacles Needs

    Master-uppsats, Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

    Författare :Yuxue Zhang; [2023]
    Nyckelord :small area estimation; area-level model; empirical best linear unbiased prediction EBLUP ; generalized linear mixed models; Conditional Autoregressive; spatial correlation; spectacle needs; assistive products; auxiliary data; hglm; relative standard error; simulation;

    Sammanfattning : This study delves into the application of Small Area Estimation (SAE) techniques to enhance the accuracy of predicting global needs for assistive spectacles. By leveraging the power of SAE, the research undertakes a comprehensive exploration, employing arange of predictive models including Linear Regression (LR), Empirical Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (EBLUP), hglm (from R package) with Conditional Autoregressive (CAR), and Generalized Linear Mixed Models (GLMM).
