  1. 1. Heritability of methane emission in Swedish Red cattle in northern Sweden

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Lucy Chipondoro; [2024]
    Nyckelord :methane emission; heritability; swedish Red cattle; dairy cow;

    Sammanfattning : Dairy cattle contribute a significant proportion of greenhouse gases (GHG), mainly methane (CH4), among other livestock species. Methane has a negative impact on climate; therefore, its reduction is a top priority for a sustainable dairy production system. LÄS MER

  3. 2. A Machine Learning Approach to Skin Cancer Delineation on Photoacoustic Imaging

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Alice Fracchia; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Skin cancer; carcinoma; photoacoustic imaging; ultrasound imaging; machine learning; dimensionality reduction; sandpiles algorithm; active contour; multilayer perception MLP ; convolutional neural networks CNN ; autoencoder; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Skin cancer is a growing public health concern due to its prevalence among the population. Current clinical procedures require high invasiveness and multiple surgeries, which are responsible for patient discomfort and high medical expenses. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Public Domain Intelligence Tests: Psychometric properties of the Cog15 and ICAR16 cognitive ability scales

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Författare :Dagný Kristjánsdóttir; Aya Zaiter; [2023]
    Nyckelord :general intelligence; intelligence testing; public domain; CFA; PCA; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The current paper aims to explore the psychometric properties of two public domain cognitive ability scales, Cog15 and ICAR16, and investigate how well they each capture the g-factor in a Swedish sample (N = 428). The motivation for choosing these aims is that public domain, free, and easily accessible intelligence tests are needed for measuring the g-factor. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Fungal pigmentation responses to microclimatic variables in isolated forest patches in Northern Sweden

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Karl Soler Kinnerbäck; [2023]
    Nyckelord :fungal ecology; mycology; functional traits; communities; pigmentation; CIELAB; lightness; microclimate; polypores;

    Sammanfattning : Investigating functional traits is an important tool for understanding fungal communities, yet ecological functions of fungal pigmentation remain poorly investigated. Recent studies support the thermal-melanism hypothesis for fungal color lightness in relation to macroclimate, but it remains unclear if microclimate also affects fungal pigmentation. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Dynamic Covariance Modelling Using Generalised Wishart Processes

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Författare :Fredrik Nilsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Covariance matrix; generalised Wishart process; Bayesian inference; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Hamiltonian Monte Carlo; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Sammanfattning : Modern portfolio theory was pioneered by Markowitz who formulated the mean-variance problem, without which any discussion on quantitative approaches to portfolio selection would be incomplete. The framework boils down to finding the expected return $\mu$ and covariance $\Sigma$, after which the solution is proportional to $\Sigma^{-1}\mu$. LÄS MER
