  1. 11. Immunogenetic variation along the latitudinal gradient in Scandinavian anuran species : Evolutionary processes, demography and infection

    Författare :Maria Cortazar-Chinarro; Jacob Höglund; Anssi Laurila; Yvonne Meyer-Lucht; Helena Westerdahl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biologi; Biology; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik;

    Sammanfattning : The evolutionary and demographic processes affecting how genetic variation is partitioned and distributed over large geographical scales is of fundamental importance for our understanding of how organisms may adapt to their environments. Northern peripheral populations generally have lower genetic variation and individuals in these populations may therefore face difficulties adapting to their local environment. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Reinforcement Learning and Optimal Adaptive Control for Structured Dynamical Systems

    Författare :Damianos Tranos; Alexandre Proutiere; Pontus Giselsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reinforcement Learning; Adaptive Control; Dynamical Systems; Control Theory; Control Engineering; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we study the related problems of reinforcement learning and optimal adaptive control, specialized to specific classes of stochastic and structured dynamical systems. By stochastic, we mean systems that are unknown to the decision maker and evolve according to some probabilistic law. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Innovation in Complex Adaptive Systems

    Författare :Petter Törnberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Society; Transitions; Complexity; Innovation Society; Wicked Systems; Technical change; EvoDevo; Innovation; Exaptive Bootstrapping; Generative Entrenchment; Niche Construction Theory;

    Sammanfattning : Our society is increasingly beset by a range of interrelated crises - with the financial crisis, the energy crisis, and the global warming crisis as leading examples - forming a "meta-crisis" with its roots in processes deeply entrenched in society (Lane et al., 2011), and emanating from large-scale complex adaptive systems so strongly interlinked that they are hard to even define and delimit.

  5. 14. Scaling Marine and Water Management

    Författare :Aron Westholm; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Ecosystem approach; Marine management; Freshwater management; Legal geography; Marine spatial planning; Municipal planning; Water planning; Environmental law; Environemnatal management; Environmental governance; Adaptive law; Adaptive management;

    Sammanfattning : This book is concerned with the linkages between legal systems and the complexity of nature. It explores how legal delimitations of ecosystems and diffusion of management across different levels of administration affects priorities and outcomes of natural resource management. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Civil and Military Leadership Processes in Situations of Extreme Environmental Demands

    Författare :Sofia Nilsson; Solveig Hägglund; Eva Johansson; Jon Christian Laberg; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Leadership processes; context; stress; humanitarian aid operations; military peacekeeping operations; Education; Pedagogik;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the studies included in this thesis has been to develop the knowledge about civil and military leadership processes and the conditions for these in situations characterized by extreme environmental demands. The main part of the thesis is based upon empirical data gathered through semi-structured qualitative interviews with Swedish civil and military leaders. LÄS MER
