  2. 1. Mapping and Merging Using Sound and Vision : Automatic Calibration and Map Fusion with Statistical Deformations

    Author : Gabrielle Flood; Matematik LTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Time of arrival; TOA; Time-difference of arrival; TDOA; Subsample methods; Uncertainty measure; Constant offset; RANSAC; Map merging; Map fusion; Change detection; Collaborative SLAM; Structure from motion; SfM; SLAM; Mapping; Localisation; Registration; Sparse maps; Point clouds;

    Abstract : Over the last couple of years both cameras, audio and radio sensors have become cheaper and more common in our everyday lives. Such sensors can be used to create maps of where the sensors are positioned and the appearance of the surroundings. READ MORE

  4. 2. Modelling, mapping and visualisation of flood inundation uncertainties

    Author : Nancy Joy Lim; Stefan Seipel; S. Anders Brandt; Eva A. U. Sahlin; Matthew Wilson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cartography; flood; hydraulic modelling; GIS; map; uncertainty; visualisation; GIS; hydraulisk modellering; karta; kartografi; osäkerhet; visualisering; översvämning; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : Flood maps showing extents of predicted flooding for a given extreme event have wide usage in all types of spatial planning tasks, as well as serving as information material for the public. However, the production processes that these maps undergo (including the different data, methods, models and decisions from the persons generating them), which include both Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and hydraulic modelling, affect the map’s content, and will be reflected in the final map.

  5. 3. Design flood estimation under uncertainty

    Author : Kenechukwu Okoli; Giuliano Di Baldassarre; András Bárdossy; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dimensionerande flöden; osäkerheter; avrinningsmodellering; frekvens analys.; Dimensionerande flöden; osäkerheter; avrinningsmodellering; frekvens analys.; Design flood; uncertainty; rainfall-runoff; frequency analysis.; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

    Abstract : Att bestämma dimensionerande flöden, d.v.s. sannolikheten för att vat-tenföringen i ett vattendrag överskrider ett givet värde, är ett allmänt hydrologiskt problem som exempelvis används för att utvärdera över-svämningsrisker i vattendrag samt för att dimensionera hydrauliska kon-struktioner.

  6. 4. Embracing the data flood : integrating diverse data to improve phenotype association discovery in forest trees

    Author : Bastian Schiffthaler; Nathaniel Street; Martin Rosvall; Nicolas Delhomme; Marek Mutwil; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systems Biology; Association Discovery; Genomics; Transcriptomics; Genome Assembly; Gene Networks; Forest Tree; Aspen; Spruce; biology; biologi;

    Abstract : Complex traits represent valuable research targets as many highly desirable properties of plants and animals (such as growth rate and height) fall into this group. However, associating biological markers with these traits is incredibly challenging, in part due to their small effect sizes. READ MORE

  7. 5. Supervised and Unsupervised Deep Learning Models for Flood Detection

    Author : Ritu Yadav; Yifang Ban; Andrea Nascetti; Nicolas Audebert; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Floods; Remote Sensing; Sentinel-1 SAR; Segmentation; Change Detection; DEM; Data Fusion; Time Series; Deep Learning; Unsupervised Learning; Contrastive Learning; Self-Attention; Convolutional LSTM; Variational AutoEncoder VAE ; Geoinformatik; Geoinformatics;

    Abstract : Human civilization has an increasingly powerful influence on the earthsystem. Affected by climate change and land-use change, floods are occurringacross the globe and are expected to increase in the coming years. Currentsituations urge more focus on efficient monitoring of floods and detecting impactedareas. READ MORE
