2. 16. Modeling, Control and Protection of Low-Voltage DC Microgrids

   Author : Daniel Salomonsson; Lennart Söder; Brian K. Johnsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; circuit transient analysis; dc power systems; dispersed storage and generation; load modeling; power conversion; power distribution control; power distribution faults; power distribution protection; power electronics; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

   Abstract : Current trends in electric power consumption indicate an increasing use of dc in end-user equipment, such as computers and other electronic appliances used in households and offices. With a dc power system, ac/dc conversion within these loads can be avoided, and losses reduced. READ MORE

4. 17. In search for the conversational homunculus : serving to understand spoken human face-to-face interaction

   Author : Jens Edlund; Joakim Gustafson; David Traum; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Acoustics; Akustik;

   Abstract : In the group of people with whom I have worked most closely, we recently attempted to dress our visionary goal in words: “to learn enough about human face-to-face interaction that we are able to create an artificial conversational partner that is humanlike”. The “conversational homunculus” figuring in the title of this book represents this “artificial conversational partner”. READ MORE

5. 18. Computational models for intent recognition in robotic systems

   Author : Michele Persiani; Thomas Hellström; Sven Magg; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Intent Recognition; Robotics; Plan Recognition; Speech; Affordances; Computer Science; datalogi;

   Abstract : The ability to infer and mediate intentions has been recognized as a crucial task in recent robotics research, where it is agreed that robots are required to be equipped with intentional mechanisms in order to participate in collaborative tasks with humans.Reasoning about - or rather, perceiving - intentions enables robots to infer what other agents are doing, to communicate what are their plans, or to take proactive decisions.

6. 19. Mutual Understanding in Situated Interactions with Conversational User Interfaces : Theory, Studies, and Computation

   Author : Dimosthenis Kontogiorgos; Joakim Gustafsson; Gabriel Skantze; Catherine Pelachaud; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; human-computer interaction; social robots; smart-speakers; multimodal behaviours; social signal processing; common ground; dialogue and discourse; joint-construction tasks; embodiment; conversational failures; Computer Science; Datalogi;

   Abstract : This dissertation presents advances in HCI through a series of studies focusing on task-oriented interactions between humans and between humans and machines. The notion of mutual understanding is central, also known as grounding in psycholinguistics, in particular how people establish understanding in conversations and what interactional phenomena are present in that process.

7. 20. Development and Characterization of Large Area Pressure Sensors and Sitting Posture Monitoring Systems

   Author : Jawad Ahmad; Johan Sidén; Henrik Andersson; Leena Ukkonen; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : With the emergence of the Internet and rapid development of science and technology over the past few decades, many individuals worldwide now rely on the Internet to conduct daily activities ranging from education, business and creativity to communication and shopping. As we tend to spend more and more time on the Internet and engage less in physical activities, this persistent behaviour could result in some health-related issues within a relatively short period of time.
