  2. 1. Investigations of neural attractor dynamics in human visual awareness

    Author : David N. Silverstein; Pawel Herman; Martin Ingvar; Karl Friston; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; attractor dynamics; visual awareness; visual perception; visual attention; attentional blink; backward masking; gliomas; brain tumor; white matter; cell assemblies; neocortical model; threat response; fear signaling; amygdala; Biological Physics; Biologisk fysik; Computer Science; Datalogi; Tillämpad matematik och beräkningsmatematik; Applied and Computational Mathematics;

    Abstract : What we see, how we see it and what emotions may arise from stimuli has long been studied by philosophers, psychologists, medical doctors and neuroscientists. This thesis work investigates a particular view on the possible dynamics, utilizing computational models of spiking neural attractor networks. READ MORE

  4. 2. Driving in Virtual Reality : Investigations in Effects of Latency and Level of Virtuality

    Author : Björn Blissing; Johan Ölvander; Fredrik Bruzelius; Henrik Engström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Virtual Reality; Augmented Reality; Mixed Reality; Latency; Driver Behavior; Active Safety Testing;

    Abstract : When developing new active safety systems or improving existing systems, conducting performance evaluations is necessary. By performing these evaluations during early development stages, potential problems can be identified and mitigated before the system moves into the production phase. READ MORE

  5. 3. The constitutive power of maps in the Arctic

    Author : Helena Gonzales Lindberg; BECC: Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in a Changing Climate; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Maps; Power; Politics; Representation; Visual politics; Critical cartography; the Arctic; Google Maps; NSIDC; USGS; kartor; makt; politik; representationer; visuell politik; kritisk kartografi; Arktis; Google Maps; NSIDC; USGS;

    Abstract : As maps are widely used, circulated, and recognised, they have consequences for how people view and understand the world. They mediate political meaning-making and frame the conditions for political alternatives to emerge or to be silenced. READ MORE

  6. 4. Evaluating the Effects of Variation on Product Appearance through Visual Robustness

    Author : Karin Nordvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; product experience; visual quality appearance; visual sensitivity; optical quality; industrial design; perceived quality; craftsmanship; robust design; non-nominal visualization; geometrical variation; visual robustness;

    Abstract : For consumer products where the product appearance plays an important role in meeting expectations, the visible effects of manufacturing variation can have a negative influence on the product experience. A concomitant of mass production is that no manufactured units are exactly identical, as a result of variation. READ MORE

  7. 5. Visual replenishment methods in the manufacturing industry and suggestion for a decision tool

    Author : Stefan Eriksson; Lars Bengtsson; Mauro Onori; Peter Gröndahl; Stig-Arne Mattsson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; materials supply; replenishment methods; visual; selecting methods; decision tool;

    Abstract : In almost all supply chains, materials need to be stored or buffered, implying that manufacturing companies need effective replenishment methods. However, this is challenging, since companies must balance inventory costs and customer service in complex and different situations. Therefore, it is important to choose replenishment methods carefully. READ MORE
