   Sammanfattning : This thesis contributes to increased knowledge on Holocene climate and environmental variability from two complex and sparsely studied areas. Using a speleothem from Gasparee Cave, Trinidad, as a paleoclimate archive, the local expression of the 8. LÄS MER

4. 3. Nanoscale structure forming processes : Metal thin films grown far-from-equilibrium

   Författare :Viktor Elofsson; Kostas Sarakinos; Robert D. Boyd; Diederik Depla; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Thin film growth from the vapor phase has for a long time intrigued researchers endeavouring to unravel and understand atomistic surface processes that govern film formation. Their motivation has not been purely scientific, but also driven by numerous applications where this understanding is paramount to knowledge-based design of novel film materials with tailored properties.

5. 4. Scalable and Efficient Probabilistic Topic Model Inference for Textual Data

   Författare :Måns Magnusson; Mattias Villani; Marco Kuhlmann; Jordan Boyd-Graber; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Text analysis; Bayesian inference; Markov chain Monte Carlo; topic models; Textanalys; Bayesiansk inferens; Markov chain Monte Carlo; temamodeller;

   Sammanfattning : Probabilistic topic models have proven to be an extremely versatile class of mixed-membership models for discovering the thematic structure of text collections. There are many possible applications, covering a broad range of areas of study: technology, natural science, social science and the humanities. LÄS MER

7. 5. Identity Construction : The Case of Young Women in Rasht

   Författare :Padideh Pakpour; Carina Jahani; Nigel Musk; Sally Boyd; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Iran; Rasht; intersectionality; sociolinguistics; identity; membership categorisation analysis; social categories; language norms; Iranska språk; Iranian Languages;

   Sammanfattning : This study took place in the city of Rasht, which is the capital of Gilan Province, situated in North-Western Iran. The aim has been to investigate how a group of young Rashti women constitute their identities through their talk-in-interaction, and how they relate to the concept of Rashti, be it the dialect, people living in a geographical area, or a notion of collective characteristics.
