1. Helping robots help us : Using prior information for localization, navigation, and human-robot interaction
Sammanfattning : Maps are often used to provide information and guide people. Emergency maps or floor plans are often displayed on walls and sketch maps can easily be drawn to give directions. However, robots typically assume that no knowledge of the environment is available before exploration even though making use of prior maps could enhance robotic mapping. LÄS MER
2. Characterization of dielectric layers for passivation of 4H-SiC devices
Sammanfattning : Silicon carbide rectifiers and MESFET switches are commercially available since 2001 and 2005 respectively. Moreover, three inch SiC wafers can be purchased nowadays without critical defects for the device performance, four inch wafers are available and the next step of technology is set to be the six inch substrate wafers.

3. Quantum State Analysis : Probability theory as logic in Quantum mechanics
Sammanfattning : Quantum mechanics is basically a mathematical recipe on how to construct physical models. Historically its origin and main domain of application has been in the microscopic regime, although it strictly seen constitutes a general mathematical framework not limited to this regime. LÄS MER
4. Urban Travel Time Estimation from Sparse GPS Data : An Efficient and Scalable Approach
Sammanfattning : The use of GPS probes in traffic management is growing rapidly as the required data collection infrastructure is increasingly in place, with significant number of mobile sensors moving around covering expansive areas of the road network. Many travelers carry with them at least one device with a built-in GPS receiver. LÄS MER
5. The evolution of sex chromosomes and sex-linked sequences in birds
Sammanfattning : Identifying the processes involved in the evolution of suppressed recombination between sex chromosomes and understanding their consequences for the evolutionary dynamics of sex-linked loci have been major topics of research during the last century. In this thesis, I used the avian ZW system, where females are the heterogametic sex, to investigate the underlying processes in sex chromosome evolution in birds. LÄS MER
