  1. 1. Holocene environmental changes recorded by diatom stratigraphy in the southern Baltic Sea

    Author : Elinor Andrén; Rick W. Batterbee; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; allmän och historisk geologi; General and Historical Geology;

    Abstract : Sediment cores from the southern Baltic Sea and the Oder River estuary are analysed for their siliceous microfossil assemblages and organic carbon content. Long piston cores from the Bornholm and Gotland Basins provide data on the long-term Holocene history of the Baltic proper and serve as a natural background when evaluating the most recent environmental changes recorded in the short gravity cores.

  5. 5. Pose-invariant, model-based objectrecognition, using linear combination of viewsand Bayesian statistics

    Author : Vasileios Zografos; Bernard Buxton; UK London University College; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This thesis presents an in-depth study on the problem of object recognition, and in particular the detectionof 3-D objects in 2-D intensity images which may be viewed from a variety of angles. A solution to thisproblem remains elusive to this day, since it involves dealing with variations in geometry, photometryand viewing angle, noise, occlusions and incomplete data. READ MORE
