Abstract:

Recently, researchers have gained an increased interest in examining activities that promote a more positive body image among women. Some activities such as yoga and dance have proven to be positively associated with body appreciation, both directly and through reduced self-surveillance. Theater practice has been shown to be beneficial for several facets of mental health; however, until now no research has been conducted on its’ association with body appreciation or self-surveillance. The present study aimed to examine the relationship between theater practice and body appreciation, controllin

Abstract:

The selfhood of social professionals in children’s services is under-researched, and where the primary focus is on practice ‘outcomes’. Informed by a critical social policy frame this thesis focuses on the selfhood of social professionals in children’s services to ask how it might, or might not, be possible to think, and do, self differently. I bring into play a critical posthumanist (non-sovereign) becoming self alongside, and in relation to, the other ‘allowed’ or ‘prescribed’ selves of neo-liberalism, professional practice and (critical) social policy itself.

Abstract:

A wireless sensor network is a network of distributed nodes each equipped with its own sensors, computational resources and transceivers. These sensors are designed to be able to sense specific phenomenon over a large geographic area and communicate this information to the user. Most sensor networks are designed to be stand-alone systems that can operate without user intervention for long periods of time. While the use of wireless sensor networks have been demonstrated in various military and commercial applications, their full potential has not been realized primarily due to the lack of effic

Abstract:

Modes of communication in modern society have become instant and frequent. Internet users usually post ongoing activities and check their friends’ statuses with texts and photos in social networking sites. During information seeking and sharing processes, they enable peer-to-peer surveillance on the Internet. The present research adopts Foucault’s (1977) Panopticon as a metaphor to investigate this new advent of online surveillance. Surveillance from unknown people on the Internet may not always exist, but the perception of being surveilled could be embedded in the users’ mind. This kind of su

Abstract:

Background: Objectification theory considers how gender and culture intersect to position women at a greater risk of developing eating disorders, depression, and sexual dysfunction. Self-objectification is defined as the internalization of a third person perspective to view one’s own body, which then leads to mental health consequences of anxiety, body shame, insensitivity to internal drives, and decreased peak motivational states. Body surveillance, the habitual and constant monitoring of the body, denotes the behavioral manifestation of self-objectification. Altogether, the accumulation of o

The surveillance in China is a topic which has been the subject of extensive scientific studies. First and foremost, the digital surveillance of the population of China has been explained by a number of scholars over the years. Nevertheless, the monitoring of the Chinese diaspora is a research area that has been explained to a limited extent and where the studies of monitoring of the Chinese diaspora in Sweden are not to be found in research for the present study.

Abstract:

The underlying theme that draws together all the chapters presented in this thesis is that surveillance, like any feature of our social world, is not imposed in a vacuum; and that information pertaining to the origin and purpose of surveillance is vital in determining how it will be perceived and evaluated (and how it will then impact on behaviour). The key aims of this thesis are, first, to demonstrate how a social identity approach can account for varying reactions to surveillance originating from different sources; second, to investigate how various contextual features exert their impact, r

This has resulted in the colour-coded negative space approach, an image preprocessing step that circumvents the need for complicated model fitting or template matching methods.

L’objectif de ce travail a été de développer deux approches analytiques dédiées à l’analyse toxicologique des nouveaux produits de synthèse (NPS) dans différentes matrices biologiques (sang, urine et cheveux). La première est basée sur le criblage non ciblé par chimiluminescence sur biopuces et chromatographie liquide couplée à la spectrométrie de masse haute résolution (LC-HRMS) et la deuxième correspond à un criblage ciblé par spectrométrie de masse en tandem (LC-MS/MS). Ces deux approches ont ensuite été appliquées dans des études observationnelles pour évaluer la consommation de NPS dans d

An intelligent program could provide not only the recording function but also the prediction of abnormal activities. Trajectory feature was proven to be an effective feature for detecting the abnormal activities. However, the moving trajectories of objects should be pre-defined in traditional approaches. Since the monitoring scenes were varied widely, pre-defined trajectories are not available for all scenes. In this thesis, the video data wit

碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>電機工程系研究所<br>101<br>Among all the visual surveillance systems, most of the algorithms apply the so-called background subtraction approach for the detection of a foreground, i.e., for the detection of a moving target. However, the background subtraction approach is susceptible to making an incorrect judgment for a time-varying environment, such as the change of light source, the interference of waving trees, the change of shadow, and the texture caused by raindrops. To conquer this problem, some of the researches propose the use of a statistical approach for the construction of

In this thesis, using Arduino UNO incorporated with Bluetooth module and passive infrared sensors, we propose a smart surveillance system with user identification and self-tracking. The proposed scheme first uses the Bluetooth module to search the users-of-interest (UOI). The relevant information is then sent to the Arduino UNO, when the passive infrared (PIR) sensor is triggered. In the case of invasion, the Arduino U

Abstract:

Melanoma is one of the most common skin cancers. Five per cent of all cancer cases that occur in a year are cases of melanoma, and many people die each year by melanoma because of overdue recognition. Moreover, the number of new cases of melanoma has been increasing in the last 30 years. Fortunately, melanoma is highly curable if detected yearly. To help mitigate this problem, the creation of applications capable of helping the user detect changes in skin moles and seek professional opinions, are instrumental.

Social networking sites (SNSs) are designed to cure loneliness and fill a void left by the lack of face-to-face communication in this digital age. Given the rapid growth rate and extensive popularity of social networking sites, my research aims to investigate the validity of widespread claims indicating that members of the millennial generation who have grown up on SNSs are increasingly narcissistic and self-obsessed because of their involvement on these sites. To address these claims, I turn to key insights borrowed from computer sciences and social psychology, inspired by the exemplary work

Abstract:

A primary objective in postmarketing drug safety surveillance is to ascertain the relationship between time-varying drug exposures and adverse events (AEs) related to health outcomes. Surveillance can be based on longitudinal observational databases (LODs), which contain time-stamped patient-level medical information including periods of drug exposure and dates of diagnoses. Due to its desirable properties, we focus on the self-controlled case series (SCCS) method for analysis in this context. SCCS implicitly controls for fixed multiplicative baseline covariates since each individual acts as t

The rise of Social Network Sites (SNS) has altered the ways in which people engage with the internet. Instead of being potentially anonymous users are now likely to be ‘nonymous’ where displays of selfhood are grounded in already-existing relationships that contribute to verifiable, authenticated, unified identities. Furthermore, the spaces in which the self is presented online are highly structured spaces in

This integration provides a wide field of view for surveillance and close observations of the suspect objects. Furthermore, it does not require detailed geometric information to calibrate the two camera systems. Instead, it uses un-calibrated algorithms as well as the neural networks of Self organizing maps (SOM) and Radial basis function (RBF) to automatically establish the visu
