  2. 1. Organizing for Social Change : Worker Cooperatives as Resistance to Capitalism

    Author : Kristin Wiksell; Satu Heikkinen; Andreas Henriksson; Åsa Wettergren; Roland Paulsen; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Worker cooperatives; Capitalism; Resistance; Constructive resistance; Power; Social change; Organizing; Timebanks; Work relations; Temporality; Knowledge; Discourse; Sociologi; Sociology;

    Abstract : When people around the globe are increasingly confronted with the challenges of rising economic inequalities and declining democratization, often associated with the spread of globalized capitalism, it becomes difficult to defend a position of business as usual. Worker co-ops are economic associations equally owned and democratically governed by workers with the potential to contribute to economic democracy and social change. READ MORE

  4. 2. Sense of Touch in Robots

    Author : Magnus Johnsson; Kognitionsvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; touch perception; neural network; robot hand; brain model; cognitive model; robot model; tensor network; associative self-organizing map; SOM; proprioception;

    Abstract : This thesis discusses a number of robot touch perception systems. All these systems are self-organizing and model different aspects of human touch perception. The thesis starts out with introductions to the anatomy and the physiology of the human hand. READ MORE

  5. 3. Morphometric and Landscape Feature Analysis with Artificial Neural Networks and SRTM data : Applications in Humid and Arid Environments

    Author : Amir Houshang Ehsani; Friedrich Quiel; Wolfgang Wagner; KTH; []
    Keywords : Self Organizing Map; Neural Network; Morphometric Feature; Landscape; Yardang; Lut Desert; Potential natural vegetation; geoecosystem; Landform; Landsat ETM ; Morphometric Parameters; SRTM; Resolution; Curvatures; DEM.; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a semi-automatic method to analyze morphometric features and landscape elements based on Self Organizing Map (SOM) as an unsupervised Artificial Neural Network algorithm in two completely different environments: 1) the Man and Biosphere Reserve “Eastern Carpathians” (Central Europe) as a complex mountainous humid area and 2) Lut Desert, Iran, a hyper arid region characterized by repetition of wind-eroded features. In 2003, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) released the SRTM/ SIR-C band data with 3 arc seconds (approx. READ MORE

  6. 4. High-Level Synthesis for SiLago : Advances in Optimization of High-Level Synthesis Tool and Neural Network Algorithms

    Author : Yu Yang; Ahmed Hemani; Zhonghai Lu; Madhura Purnaprajna; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronic Design Automation EDA ; Computer Aided Design CAD ; Algorithm-level Synthesis; SiLago; Optimization Techniques; Neural Network; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Embedded hardware designs and their automation improve energy and engineering efficiency. However, these two goals are often contradictory. The attempts to improve energy efficiency often come at the cost of engineering efficiency and vice-versa. High-level synthesis (HLS) is a good example of this challenge. READ MORE

  7. 5. Modelling the offset lithographic printing process

    Author : Cristofer Englund; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Neural networks; Self-organizing map; Data mining; Outlier detection; Leverages; Committee; Adaptive modelling; Image analysis; Bildanalys;

    Abstract : A concept for data management and adaptive modelling of the offset lithographic printing process is proposed. Artificial neural networks built from historical process data are used to model the offset printing process aiming to develop tools for online ink flow control. READ MORE
