    Författare :Ghassan Hamarneh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shape modeling; deformable models; principal component analysis; echocardiography; snakes; active shape models; deformable spatio-temporal shape models; medial-based shape profiles; statistical shape variation; spatio-temporal shape analysis; magnetic resonance imaging; hierarchical regional principal component analysis; oral lesions; dynamic programming; segmentation; spring-mass model; shape deformation; optical flow; medical image analysis; artificial life; physics-based modeling; deformable organisms; digital color images; medial axis; active contour models;

    Sammanfattning : Medical imaging continues to permeate the practice of medicine, but automated yet accurate segmentation and labeling of anatomical structures continues to be a major obstacle to computerized medical image analysis (MIA). Deformable models, with its profound roots in estimation theory, optimization, and physics-based dynamical systems, represent a powerful approach to the general problem of medical image segmentation.

    Författare :Filmon Yacob; Daniel Semere; Sophie Gröger; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machining simulation; model-based prediction; variation propagation; variation source identification; variation compensation; tolerance analysis; Octree; anomaly detection; quaternion; dual quaternion; Plücker coordinate.; Maskinbearbetningssimulering; modellbaseradförutsägelse; variationsspridning; variationskällidentifiering; variationskompensation; toleransanalys; Octree; dual quaternions; Plücker-koordinat.; Production Engineering; Industriell produktion;

    Sammanfattning : All manufacturing processes inevitably induce variations into manufactured parts that may result in nonconformance. Nonconforming parts incur costs due to the additional process required for rework or scrap loss. Hence, methodical efforts to reduce these variations are necessary for competitive manufacturing.

  4. 3. Aspects of Structural Evolution in Cemented Carbide – Carbide Size, Shape and Stability

    Författare :Ida Borgh; Joakim Odqvist; Peter Hedström; Annika Borgenstam; Jean-Michel Missiaen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cemented carbide; Ti; Zr C; Coarsening; Phase separation; C-activity; initial WC powder size; electron backscattered diffraction; microscopy; X-ray diffraction;

    Sammanfattning : Cemented carbide is a composite material used in applications like cutting tools and rock drilling inserts. The material commonly consists of WC grains embedded in a Co-rich binder phase and the material properties strongly depend on the WC grain size. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Statistical methods for the detection, analyses and integration of biomarkers in the human genome and transcriptome

    Författare :Chen Suo; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Most human diseases have been shown to have a genetic basis that is linked to regulation of gene expression at the transcriptional or post-transcriptional level. In the central dogma of biology, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is transcribed to messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), and then translated into proteins; dysfunction in any of these processes may contribute to the development of disease.

  7. 5. International organizations as peacemakers : The evolution and effectiveness of intergovernmental instruments to end civil war

    Författare :Magnus Lundgren; Jonas Tallberg; Isak Svensson; Yoram Haftel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; intergovernmental organizations; international organizations; conflict management; conflict resolution; mediation; civil war; armed conflict; institutional design; mediator bias; bargaining theory; Political Science; statsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Across four self-contained essays, this dissertation seeks to identify which features make international organizations (IOs) effective peacemakers in modern civil wars. The first essay introduces an original dataset on the institutional design of 21 peace-brokering IOs between 1945 and 2010. LÄS MER
