    Författare :Matilda Olstedt; [2024-03-15]
    Nyckelord :bisexuality; marginalisation; Sweden; asylum procedure; case law;

    Sammanfattning : Bisexual individuals are often construed as ‘half homosexuals’, and thus seen as less vulnerable to sexual minority intolerance and persecution. According to bisexuality scholars, however, bisexual individuals are subjected to double discrimination, as they are marginalised both by the heteronormative society and the homosexual minority group.

  3. 2. Uncertainty Estimation in Radiation Dose Prediction U-Net

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Författare :Frida Skarf; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Radiation dose prediction models; U-net; quantile regression; Monte Carlo Dropout; epistemic uncertainty estimation; aleatoric uncertainty estimation; Stråldospredicerande modeller; U-net; kvantilregression; Monte Carlo Dropout; epistemisk osäkerhetsskattning; aletorisk osäkerhetsskattning;

    Sammanfattning : The ability to quantify uncertainties associated with neural network predictions is crucial when they are relied upon in decision-making processes, especially in safety-critical applications like radiation therapy. In this paper, a single-model estimator of both epistemic and aleatoric uncertainties in a regression 3D U-net used for radiation dose prediction is presented. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Beyond the Canvas: A Mixed Methods Study of Awe-Experiences in Virtual Reality Featuring Abstract and Figurative Art

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Författare :Wilgot Qvant; Nike Stolpe Wikström; [2023]
    Nyckelord :awe; Virtual Reality; VR; emotions; abstract art; epistemic emotion; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: This thesis delves into the dynamic relation between awe and art, specifically focusing on abstract versus representational art within immersive Virtual Reality (VR) environments. Prompted by the expansion of awe research since Keltner and Haidt’s seminal work (2003) and the research gap on art and VR, this study explores whether the level of abstraction in art influences the intensity of the awe experience.

  7. 5. A Defense of the Permissibility of Prejudice

    Kandidat-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för idé- och samhällsstudier

    Författare :Lucas Lainpelto; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Prejudice; stereotypes; epistemology; ethics;

    Sammanfattning : This paper argues for the counter intuitive notion that some prejudice is morally justified. The argument is divided up into three parts: (1) what prejudice is, (2) the role of epistemology and (3) the final moral argument. The first section initially establishes a working definition which allows prejudice to be justified epistemically. LÄS MER
