  2. 1. Array-based Autoantibody Profiling and Epitope Mapping

    Author : Arash Zandian; Peter Nilsson; Jochen M. Schwenk; Maja Neiman; Morten Nielsen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; antibody; antigens; peptide; epitope mapping; autoimmunity; autoantibodies; microarrays; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Antibodies are a class of proteins that are made by the immune system to recognize harmful organisms and molecules. Their exceptional capability of specifically recognizing molecules has been investigated for over a century and information thereof has been utilized for a variety of applications including vaccine and generation of therapeutic antibodies.

  4. 2. Hopf and Frobenius algebras in conformal field theory

    Author : Carl Stigner; Jürgen Fuchs; Jens Fjelstad; Ingo Runkel; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; conformal field theory; category theory; Hopf algebra; Frobenius algebra; coends; mapping class group; defect lines; factorization constraints; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : There are several reasons to be interested in conformal field theories in two dimensions. Apart from arising in various physical applications, ranging from statistical mechanics to string theory, conformal field theory is a class of quantum field theories that is interesting on its own. First of all there is a large amount of symmetries. READ MORE

  5. 3. Mapping of the specificity in MHC class I recognition by natural killer cells

    Author : Margareta Waldenström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Natural killer (NK) cells represent the third major lymphocyte subpopulation. They are distinguishable from B and T lymphocytes by their surface phenotype, cytokine profile and the ability to mediate spontaneous cytotoxicity, without prior sensitization, against certain tumor cells and virally infected cells.

  6. 4. Stable invariants of some topological moduli spaces

    Author : Erik Lindell; Dan Petersen; Alexander Berglund; Andrew Putman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Moduli spaces; mapping class groups; stable invariants; matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of three papers, treating stability phenomena in various automorphism groups in topology. In Papers I and III, we study the group (co)homology of certain mapping class groups of surfaces and graphs, or their respective Torelli subgroups, while the subject of Paper II is homotopy automorphisms of higher-dimensional spaces and manifolds.

  7. 5. Mining Speech Sounds : Machine Learning Methods for Automatic Speech Recognition and Analysis

    Author : Giampiero Salvi; Björn Granström; Torbjørn Svendsen; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; speech; machine learning; data mining; signal processing; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis collects studies on machine learning methods applied to speech technology and speech research problems. The six research papers included in this thesis are organised in three main areas. The first group of studies were carried out within the European project Synface. READ MORE
