Abstract:

Energy poverty undermines development at a large scale. It is most overtly experienced in informal settlements, where the use of fuels like paraffin, charcoal and wood prove hazardous and harmful to health and wellbeing. The expenditure on and use of energy services in informal settlements are largely undefined, which severely undermines the success of energy access and safety initiatives. Despite the poverty of informal settlements, mobile phone ownership is high in these areas. This research aims to explore the potential and applicability of a digital data collecting systems using a mobile a

Abstract:

Crowd simulations are being used in an increasing number of different applications, like evacuation scenarios, video games and movie special effects This creates a demand for crowd simulators that are simple to use and accessible to users of varying backgrounds. We will study the flow tile method proposed by Chenney [1], which provides an intuitive way of interactively designing divergence free velocity fields for various applications. A reimplementation of Chenney's method will be given and the implementation will be evaluated in terms of user-friendliness and how well the use of static spati

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to study some of the challenges that the Kurdish language and its standardization face, and offer a bottom-up solution through the “collective intelligence” and “good faith collaboration” of Wikipedia. Therefore, the fragmentation in the Kurdish language—caused by both external factors and those that are inherent to the language itself— is discussed and analyzed. Furthermore, this thesis describes some of the efforts that have been made to unify the Kurdish language, its dialects and its different writing systems. Even though these issues exist both in the physical wo

Abstract:

Measuring the business value that Internet technologies deliver for organisations has proven to be a difficult and elusive task, given their complexity and increased embeddedness within the value chain. Yet, despite the lack of empirical evidence that links the adoption of Information Technology (IT) with increased financial performance, many organisations continue to adopt new technologies at a rapid rate. This is evident in the widespread adoption of Web 2.0 online Social Networking Services (SNSs) such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. These new Internet based technologies, widely used for

Abstract:

The problem of simulating a crowd to see how it would behave in certain situations or just to create a realistic-looking scene to be used in a movie or video game is important and complex, and there are many different methods to solve it. This project is primarily an investigation of the example-based crowd simulation method described in the article "Crowds by Example" by Lerner et al. [11]. In the article, traced video footage of crowds are used to create a data set. The simulation program continuously finds situations in the data set that resembles the current situations in the simulation an

Abstract:

Crowd simulation has been widely used to simulate crowd dynamics and their behaviours. However, majority of existing studies can only simulate a specific scenario or behaviour. Although recent developments have attempted to integrate different individual behaviours in order to achieve a more realistic simulation result, it is still very complex and those crowd models often require significant modifications. This study is therefore aimed to develop a generic crowd model, which provides the flexibility to configure and represent different scenarios, as well as the ability to demonstrate individu

The purpose of this project was to develop several information system concepts with the goal of reducing uneven crowd distribution in the Stockholm subway system, using a data driven, user centred, and iterative design approach. These systems were designed to be implemented on-site in the subway. The project also sought to evaluate the efficacy of different types of information systems. The project was initiated with a background study, involving a study of available literature from previously conducted studies, as well as a state-of-the-art analysis of systems currently available on the marke

Furthermore it explores how such a visualization tool can be evaluated according to a suggested framework for spatio-temporal data.

A large proportion of the farming in Kenya and Eastern Africa is performed by smallholding farmers. At the same time, consumers are expecting to find foodstuff more close by and in a more convenient way than most smallholding farmers can provide. Crowdsourcing can efficiently be applied to many problems where many small producers need to collaborate to create the complete product, without exposing much of the complex process to the end consumers. Using semi structured interviews, systematic literature review and prototyping, the application of crowdsourcing to reach and empower smallholding fa

Abstract:

Analyzing large crowds quickly is one of the highly sought-after capabilities nowadays. Especially in terms of public security and planning, this assumes prime importance. But automated reasoning of crowd images or videos is a challenging Computer Vision task. The difficulty is so extreme in dense crowds that the task is typically narrowed down to estimating the number of people. Since the count or distribution of people in the scene itself can be very valuable information, this field of research has gained traction. The difficulty mostly stems from the drastic variability in crowd density as

Understanding the principles and applications of crowd dynamics in mass gatherings is very important, specifically with respect to crowd risk analysis and crowd safety.

This is required to support appropriate and timely crowd management principles in planning crowd control measures and providing early warning systems at mass gatherings.
