  2. 11. Risk and survival for colorectal cancer in northern Sweden : sociodemographic factors and surveillance programs

    Author : Olle Sjöström; Beatrice S. Melin; Lars H Lindholm; Richard Palmqvist; Johannes Blom; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Colorectal cancer; Risk factors; Cancer epidemiology; Endoscopy general; Health economy; Cancer prevention; Hereditary colorectal; Surveillance colonoscopy; Cancer Epidemiology; cancerepidemiologi; Genetics; genetik; Surgery; kirurgi; Oncology; onkologi;

    Abstract : BackgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) – i.e., cancer in the colon or rectum – is one of the most common cancers both globally and in Sweden. The risk for CRC is mainly related to age, heredity, and life-style risk factors. READ MORE

  4. 12. The role of wastewater in surveillance and emergence of antibiotic resistant bacteria

    Author : Marion Hutinel; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microbiology; Bacteriology; Antibiotic resistance; Surveillance; Horizontal gene transfer; HGT; Conjugation; Plasmids; Epidemiology; CPE; E. coli; Carbapenamase; Linezolid; Colistin; Selection; sul4; OXA-48; gar; NDM; mcr; wastewater; sewage; sewer;

    Abstract : As antibiotic resistance spreads among bacterial pathogens, it reduces treatment options and increases treatment failures of infectious diseases. Strategies employed to reduce this spread or adapt to its consequences need to be based on reliable surveillance data which is lacking in many countries, often due to limited resources. READ MORE

  5. 13. Anomaly detection in the surveillance domain

    Author : Christoffer Brax; Lars Niklasson; Göran Falkman; Dimiter Driankov; Henric Johnson; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Anomaly Detection; Information Fusion; Visual Surveillance; Maritime Domain Awareness; Datalogi; Computer and Systems Science; Teknik;

    Abstract : In the post September 11 era, the demand for security has increased in virtually all parts of the society. The need for increased security originates from the emergence of new threats which differ from the traditional ones in such a way that they cannot be easily defined and are sometimes unknown or hidden in the “noise” of daily life.

  6. 14. On Cooperative Surveillance, Online Trajectory Planning and Observer Based Control

    Author : David A. Anisi; Xiaoming Hu; Randal Beard; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Surveillance Missions; Minimum-Time Surveillance; Unmanned Ground Vehicles; Connectivity Constraints; Combinatorial Optimization; Computational Optimal Control; Receding Horizon Control; Mission Uncertainty; Safety; Task Completion; Adaptive Grid Methods; Missile Guidance; Nonlinear Observer Design; Active Observers; Non--uniformly Observable Systems; Mobile Robotic Systems; Intrinsic Observers; Differential Geometric Methods; Euler-Lagrange Systems; Contraction Analysis.; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori; Applied mathematics; Tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : The main body of this thesis consists of six appended papers. In the  first two, different  cooperative surveillance problems are considered. The second two consider different aspects of the trajectory planning problem, while the last two deal with observer design for mobile robotic and Euler-Lagrange systems respectively. READ MORE

  7. 15. Resource Allocation in Airborne Surveillance Radar

    Author : Johannes Wintenby; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; radar resource management; radar control; sensor management; surveillance radar; electronically scanned antenna; adaptive tracking; resource allocation;

    Abstract : Radars equipped with an Electronically Scanned Antenna (ESA) have the potential of directing the electromagnetic radar beam without mechanically adjusting the antenna. Furthermore, the beam can be redirected instantaneously towards any location in space. READ MORE
