Abstract:

Division of focal plane (DoFP) polarimeters are composed of interlaced linear polarizers overlaid upon a focal plane array sensor. The interpolation is essential to reconstruct polarization information. However, current interpolation methods are based on the unrealistic assumption of noise-free images. Thus, it is advantageous to carry out denoising before interpolation. In this paper, we propose a principle component analysis (PCA) based denoising method, which works directly on DoFP images. Both simulated and real DoFP images are used to evaluate the denoising performance. Experimental resul

Abstract:

Binary image processing algorithms have been implemented in this study to create a background subtraction mask for the segmentation of cellular time lapse images. The complexity in the development of the background subtraction mask stems from the inherent difficulties in contrast resolution at the cellular boundaries. Coupling the background subtraction mask with the path reconstruction method via superposition of overlapping binary segmented objects in sequential time lapse images produces a semi-automatic method for cellular tracking. In addition to the traditional center of mass or centroid

As such, although Plato considered dialectic as the method of philosophical inquiry, the term \'Dialectic\' is just a façon de parler conveying the method he deemed most suitable at different mom

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has become a very popular method for high-data-rate communication. However, it is well known that OFDM is plagued by a large peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) problem. This high PAPR results in overdesigned power amplifiers, which amongst other things leads to inefficient amplifier usage, which is undesirable. Various methods have been recommended to reduce the PAPR of an OFDM transmission; however, all these methods result in a number of drawbacks.

Abstract:

Relationen mellan entreprenörer och beställare i byggbranschen har ofta en brist på tillit vilket är ogynnsamt både för projekten och den involverade personalen. Mycket tid läggs på att hantera tvister och det finns ett antagande att parterna är ute efter att lura varandra till egen vinning. Det blir i sin tur ett negativ utfall för både entreprenören och beställaren då det bidrar till att projekten ofta blir dyrare och tar längre tid än nödvändigt. Dessvärre har branschen sett ut så väldigt länge men det finns bättre sätt att arbeta på. NCC:s affärsområden NCC Building Sweden och NCC Property

Abstract:

Studiens syfte var att undersöka vilka lösningsstrategier som finns vid division, vilka som används vid av eleverna samt vilka lösningsstrategier som lärarna undervisar om i årskurs 5. För att ta reda på detta samlades data in genom enkäter där 77 elever deltog samt intervjuer med tre lärare och sju elever. Resultatet visar på att lärarnas lösningsstrategier inte stämmer helt överens med elevernas val av metod. Vid intervjuer med lärarna framkom det att lång division var den metod som användes mest frekvent. Multiplikation var det enda räknesätt som var inblandat vid utlärningen av division. S

Abstract:

This thesis is focused on a vital component of the Swedish national pension system called Annuity Divisor which determines the annual pension amount. It is based on the life expectancy of the whole population and it also includes a set discount rate. There are however two different formulas used within the Swedish national pension system and these different methods are also based on different data, historical and prognostic. The political aspects regarding the Annuity Divisor are also considered. The process from raw data until the final value is shown and compared with methods used in Finla

Abstract:

<p> Over the past few decades, the money and attention associated with Intercollegiate Athletics (ICA) has exploded. At the same time, however, many ICA departments claim to be at a financial crossroads with coaching salaries and operational costs soaring upwards. Not surprisingly, ICA departments are responding by focusing on increasing their fundraising in innovative ways. Perhaps the most interesting of these is in the area of hybrid—or blended—giving, which combines cash with a deferred gift. While these gifts have the potential to help generate substantially more revenue for I

Traditional molecular biology has been driven by reductionism with the belief that breaking down a biological system into the fundamental biomolecular components will elucidate such phenomena. We have reached limitations with this approach due to the complex and dynamical nature
