2. 1. Methods for Reliable Image Registration : Algorithms, Distance Measures, and Representations

   Author : Johan Öfverstedt; Natasa Sladoje; Mattias Heinrich; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Image registration; alignment; local optimization; global optimization; mutual information; normalized gradient fields; representation learning; Computerized Image Processing; Datoriserad bildbehandling;

   Abstract : Much biomedical and medical research relies on the collection of ever-larger amounts of image data (both 2D images and 3D volumes, as well as time-series) and increasingly from multiple sources. Image registration, the process of finding correspondences between images based on the affinity of features of interest, is often required as a vital step towards the final analysis, which may consist of a comparison of images, measurement of movement, or fusion of complementary information.

4. 2. From Domain Adaptation to Federated Learning

   Author : Zahra Taghiyarrenani; Sławomir Nowaczyk; Sepideh Pashami; Mohamed-Rafik Bouguelia; Eirini Ntoutsi; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Data-driven methods have been gaining increasing attention; however, along with the benefits they offer, they also present several challenges, particularly concerning data availability, accessibility, and heterogeneity, the three factors that have shaped the development of this thesis. Data availability is the primary consideration when employing data-driven methodologies. READ MORE

5. 3. (Investigating) MNCs' CSR-related behaviour and impacts in institutionally and culturally distant markets : African developing-countries in focus

   Author : Gideon Jojo Amos; Gabriel Baffour Awuah; Ulf Aagerup; Niklas Egels-Zandén; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; multinational enterprises MNEs ; corporate social responsibility CSR ; corporate social responsibility reporting CSRR ; African developing-countries; legitimacy; stakeholders; institutional theories; organizational learning;

   Abstract : The overall purpose of this thesis is to explore why and how institutional distance and contextual differences influence MNCs’ CSR-related behavior in African developing-countries. In order to achieve the purpose stated above, the thesis seeks to answer the overarching research question: How do institutional distance and contextual differences influence MNCs’ CSR-related behavior in African developing countries? To answer the research question this thesis employed an interpretive methodological approach in order to increase my understanding of the CSR phenomenon in a specific contextual environment characterized by different institutional distance through different theoretical and empirical perspectives (Guba and Lincoln, 1994; Lincoln and Guba, 2000).

6. 4. Learning Convolution Operators for Visual Tracking

   Author : Martin Danelljan; Michael Felsberg; Fahad Shahbaz Khan; Jiri Matas; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Visual tracking is one of the fundamental problems in computer vision. Its numerous applications include robotics, autonomous driving, augmented reality and 3D reconstruction. In essence, visual tracking can be described as the problem of estimating the trajectory of a target in a sequence of images. READ MORE

   Author : Shahriar Hasan; Elisabeth Uhlemann; Svetlana Girs; Javier Manuel Gozalvez Sempere; Mälardalens universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ACC; CACC; Communication Systems; Systems-of-systems; Fault tolerance; fail-operational; fail-safe; transient communication outages; platooning; connected and automated vehicles; V2V; V2X; emergency braking; collision avoidance; string stability; machine learning; artificial intelligence; ML AI; X-AI; communication delays; discrete-even simulations; SUMO; PLEXE; Veins; OMNeT ; PlatoonSAFE; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

   Abstract : Recent advances in wireless technology facilitating Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication have paved the way towards connected and more cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs), enhancing road safety and sustainability. Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) can exchange information with one another and their surrounding infrastructure, thereby enabling cooperative automated maneuvering such as vehicle platooning.
