Abstract:
This dissertation project was designed to examine the relationship between alpha sleep and information processing during sleep in persons with fibromyalgia. The study tested the following hypotheses: (1) persons with alpha sleep are more sensitive to external stimuli during sleep than non-alpha sleepers (2) alpha sleepers are more likely to identify polysomnographically defined sleep as wakefulness than non-alpha sleepers and (3) alpha sleepers are more likely to complain of shallow and non-restorative sleep than non-alpha sleepers. To assess the extent to which subjects manifested alpha sleep

Abstract:
In this work we mainly focus on two main aspects of interest within the field of Relativistic Quantum Information. We first expand on the current knowledge of the effects of relativity on entanglement between global field modes. Within this aspect, we focus on two topics: we address and revise the single mode approximation commonly used in the literature. We study the nonlocal correlations of charged bosonic field modes and the degradation of entanglement initially present in maximally entangled states as a function of acceleration, when one observer is accelerated.

The company consists of several departments that each require different kind of information to support, improve and facilitate their area of operation.

Europa is one of the most interesting satellites in the solar system in the search ofextra-terrestrial life, as it harbours an interior water ocean under its icy surface. Watervapour in Europa’s atmosphere has been previously observed, suggesting water plumeeruptions from the surface. These plumes could potentially originate from the subsurfaceocean, and as such contain ocean constituents that can be examined in orbit. Twoobservations of Europa’s far-ultraviolet shadow on Jupiter were made by the HubbleSpace Telescope in 2018 and 2019. It was observed in Lyman-α (1 216 Å), a spectral lineof hy

Uranus is one of the least explored planets in our solar system. Event though the Uranian Ly-α emission has been a subject of study for decades, there is not a consensus on the sources contribution to the total signal.

The sources are solar Ly-α resonant scattering and Rayleigh scattering by atomic and molecular hydrogen respectively. The radiative transfer equation is solved using the Feautrier Method Pro

In self-play reinforcement learning an agent plays games against itself and with the help of hindsight and retrospection improves its policy over time. Using this premise, AlphaZero famously managed to become the strongest known Go, Shogi, and Chess entity by training a deep neural network from data collected solely from self-play. AlphaZero couples this deep neural network with a Monte Carlo Tree Search algorithm that drastically improves the networks initial policy and state evaluation. When training AlphaZero relies on the final outcome of the game for the generation of training labels. By

The aim of this work is to evaluate if the win rate of an evolutionary AI algorithm is affected by the branching factor of the board game it is applied to. To do that, an experiment is performed where an evolutionary algorithm known as “Genetic Minimax” is evaluated for the two low branching facto
