    Abstract : The discourse on Norrland (literally ‘North land’ in English) as essentially ‘different’ has been(re)produced in literature, politics and science for as long as the idea of ‘Norrland’ has existed.

    Abstract : The number of persons who are not employed has increased in Sweden since the early 1990s. Unemployment has been found to influence health, especially when unemployment rates are low.

  6. 19. Towards Emotion inspired Computational Intelligence (EiCI)

    Author : Mahboobeh Parsapoor; Bertil Svensson; Urban Bilstrup; Jorge Armony; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : One of the main challenges in the computational intelligence (CI) community is to develop nature-inspired algorithms that can efficiently solve real-world problems such as the prediction of space weather phenomena. An early example in this context is taking inspiration from the biological neurons in the mammal’s nervous system and developing an artificial neuron. READ MORE

  7. 20. The Doctor, the Task and the Group : Balint Groups as a Means of Developing New Understanding in the Physician-Patient Relationship
