  1. 1. Knowledge predication : A semantic typology

    Author : Anna Sjöberg; Bernhard Wälchli; Maria Koptjevskaja-Tamm; Volker Gast; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; semantic typology; constructional typology; semantic maps; knowledge; epistemology; parallel texts; language sampling; token-based typology; cognitive semantics; Linguistics; lingvistik;

    Abstract : The present thesis is an investigation of the cross-linguistic expression of knowledge predication (‘He knows that it’s raining’, ‘she knows the boy’ etc.) Knowledge predication is investigated in parallel texts—specifically New Testament translations—in a genealogically and areally stratified variety sample of 83 languages.

  2. 2. Interpretation and Alignment of 2D Indoor Maps : Towards a Heterogeneous Map Representation

    Author : Saeed Gholami Shahbandi; Björn Åstrand; Roland Philippsen; Antanas Verikas; Patric Jensfelt; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Robotics; Mobile Robots; Autonomous Robots; Robot Perception; Robotic Mapping; Map Interpretation; Semantic Mapping; Place Categorization; Place Labeling; Semantic Annotation; Map Alignment; Region Segmentation; Region Decomposition; Map Representation; Heterogeneous Representation;

    Abstract : Mobile robots are increasingly being used in automation solutions with notable examples in service robots, such as home-care, and warehouses. Autonomy of mobile robots is particularly challenging, since their work space is not deterministic, known a priori, or fully predictable. READ MORE

  3. 3. Some Aspects of Mobile Map Services

    Author : Hanna Stigmar; Fastighetsvetenskap; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; amount of information; information services; cartography; map; mobile map services; usability;

    Abstract : The technology of today, with the use of computers and the Internet, has enabled new types of map usage. Screen maps provide possibilities that could never be offered by standard paper maps, and allow maps to be integrated into information services. READ MORE

  4. 4. Helping robots help us : Using prior information for localization, navigation, and human-robot interaction

    Author : Malcolm Mielle; Martin Magnusson; Achim Lilienthal; Erik Schaffernicht; Marjorie Skubic; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; graph-based SLAM; prior map; sketch map; emergency map; map matching; graph matching; segmentation; search and rescue;

    Abstract : Maps are often used to provide information and guide people. Emergency maps or floor plans are often displayed on walls and sketch maps can easily be drawn to give directions. However, robots typically assume that no knowledge of the environment is available before exploration even though making use of prior maps could enhance robotic mapping. READ MORE

  5. 5. Consumer knowledge and its implications for aspects of consumer purchasing behaviour in the case of information-intensive products

    Author : Debbie Vigar-Ellis; Esmail Salehi-Sangari; Leyland Pitt; Maria Styven Ek; KTH; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Consumer knowledge; Objective knowledge; Subjective knowledge; Opinion leadership; Exploratory acquisition; Variety-seeking behaviour; Wine; Information-intensive products;

    Abstract : The purpose of this research was to better understand consumer knowledge, its constituents, antecedents and consequences or implications for other consumer behaviours so as to assist wine marketers and marketers of other information-intensive products with their marketing strategy development.  Wine is a complex product difficult for consumers to evaluate particularly prior to purchase but it is also a difficult product for marketers.
