  1. 1. A clinical positron emission tomography facility : 2-¹⁸FDG studies : development and results

    Author : Tomas G Ohlsson; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radiology; Clinical physics; head and neck cancer; monitoring therapy effect; quantification; normalization; 511 keV SPECT; rotating PET scanner; 2-[18-F]FDG; isotope production; 18-F; PET; positron emission tomography; tomography; medical instrumentation; Klinisk fysiologi; radiologi; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering; Fysicumarkivet A:1996:Ohlsson;

    Abstract : Positron emission tomography (PET) is a tracer technique used for quantitative in vivo studies of physiological and biochemical processes. Because of the use of positron-emitting radionuclides such as 11-C, 13-N, 15-O and 18-F, which are isotopes of the biologically ubiquitous elements, it is possible to label radiopharmaceuticals which trace biochemical processes precisely.

  2. 2. Towards Effective Fault Prevention : An Empirical Study in Software Engineering

    Author : Niclas Ohlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Quality improvement in terms of lower costs, shorter development times and increased reliability are not only important to most organisations, but also demanded by the customers. This thesis aims at providing a better understanding of which factors affect the number of faults introduced in different development phases and how this knowledge can be used to improve the development of large-scale software: In particular, models that enable identification of fault-prone modules are desirable.

  3. 3. Understanding therapeutic traditions in a multilevel framework - new methodological approaches

    Author : Henrik Ohlsson; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adherence to guidelines; practice variation; Multilevel models; variance components; determinants of prescription;

    Abstract : Background: The observation of differences in the way apparently similar patients are treated from one health care setting to another, i.e., practice variation, have been recognized in numerous studies. The variations across the health care settings have been shown to exist for different outcomes. READ MORE

  4. 4. Regularization for Sparseness and Smoothness : Applications in System Identification and Signal Processing

    Author : Henrik Ohlsson; Lennart Ljung; Jacob Roll; Bo Wahlberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Regularization; sparsity; smothness; lasso; l1; fMRI; bio-feedback; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : In system identification, the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) is a well known method to balance the model fit against model complexity. Regularization here acts as a price on model complexity. READ MORE

  5. 5. On Concurrent Error Detection and Error Propagation

    Author : Joakim Ohlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; error models; control flow monitoring; simulation experiments; concurrent error detection; permanent faults; watchdog processors; fault injection; transient faults;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses three important steps in the selection of error detection mechanisms for microprocessors: (i) the design and evaluation of error detection mechanisms, (ii) the study of microprocessor error behavior and propagation and (iii) the design and use of error models. The first part of the thesis evaluates four error detection methods with respect to para- meters such as error detection coverage and performance loss, while the second and third parts focus on determining the error patterns most likely to occur in a computer system when different types of faults are present and how to incorporate those error patterns into error models.
