  1. 1. Increasing Autonomy of Unmanned Aircraft Systems Through the Use of Imaging Sensors

    Author : Piotr Rudol; Andrzej Szalas; Pascual Campoy; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; UAV; UAS; UAV autonomy; human-body detection; color-thermal image fusion; vehicle tracking; geolocation; UAV indoor navigation;

    Abstract : The range of missions performed by Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) has been steadily growing in the past decades thanks to continued development in several disciplines. The goal of increasing the autonomy of UAS's is widening the range of tasks which can be carried out without, or with minimal, external help. READ MORE

  2. 2. Accumulation and Cellular Clearance of IAPP and Proteotoxicity of ATTR in Drosophila Models

    Author : Xiaohong Gu; Gunilla Westermark; Anders Olofsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; amyloid; IAPP; ATTR; ATTR amyloidosis; crystalline structure; aggrephagy; Drosophila melanogaster; Gal4-UAS; electron tomography; DAMS; SOHA; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Abstract : Proteins’ functions are dependent on their three-dimensional (3D) structure. Under certain circumstances, proteins misfold and form aggregates, sometimes leading to amyloidosis. Islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) builds up amyloid in the pancreatic islet of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

  3. 3. Selected Aspects of Navigation and Path Planning in Unmanned Aircraft Systems

    Author : Mariusz Wzorek; Andrzej Szałas; Jacek Malec; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Path planning; motion planning; autonomous Unmanned Aircraft Systems UAS ; Hierarchical Concurrent State Machines HCSM ; UAV;

    Abstract : Unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) are an important future technology with early generations already being used in many areas of application encompassing both military and civilian domains. This thesis proposes a number of integration techniques for combining control-based navigation with more abstract path planning functionality for UASs. READ MORE

  4. 4. Images from unmanned aircraft systems for surveying aquatic and riparian vegetation

    Author : Eva Husson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Aquatic and riparian vegetation in lakes, streams, and wetlands has important ecological and regulatory functions and should be monitored to detect ecosystem changes. Field surveys are often tedious and in countries with numerous lakes and streams a nationwide assessment is difficult to achieve. READ MORE

  5. 5. The potential of an unmanned aircraft system for surveying lake and river vegetation

    Author : Eva Husson; Seppo Hellsten; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Landscape Ecology; Landskapsekologi;

    Abstract : Vegetation in and along aquatic systems has important regulatory and ecological functions. Aquatic vegetation is also frequently used as an indicator of environmental conditions. To enhance our knowledge of the complex natural processes in the littoral zone, i.e. READ MORE
