  1. 1. Digital Twins : High Resolution Disease Models for Optimized Diagnosis and Treatment

    Author : Sandra Lilja; Mikael Benson; Huan Zhang; Claudio Altafini; Yvan Saeys; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : To study immune-mediated diseases, which can affect the expression of thousands of genes among many different cell types and organs, is a daunting challenge. However, for effective diagnosis and therapeutic treatment it is relevant to understand the regulatory functions of disease. READ MORE

  2. 2. Epidemiology and genetics in ulcerative colitis with special reference to twins and smoking

    Author : Curt Tysk; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ulcerative colitis; ulcerative proctitis; epidemiology; incidence; prevalence; genetics; twins; colonic glycoproteins; smoking; primary sclerosing cholangitis; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : In an epidemiologic study of ulcerative proctocolitis during the period 1963-1987, annual incidence rates increased fourfold and was during the last 10 years 13.1/105 inhabitants. The prevalence on December 31, 1987 was 234/105 inhabitants. Both rates are high but close to recent reports. READ MORE

  3. 3. Crohn's disease : Studies on epidemiology, twins, aetiological factors and clinical course with special reference to smoking

    Abstract : In an epidemiological study of the incidence of Crohn's disease in Orebro county during the 25-year period 1963-1987, the mean annual incidence was 6.1/105 inhabitants. During the first five year period the mean incidence was 4.3 but during the following four quinquennia the incidence was stable at around 6. READ MORE

  4. 4. Digital Twins for Asset Management of Structures

    Author : Vanessa Saback; Björn Täljsten; Rasmus Rempling; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Digital Twins; BIM; Asset Management; Common Data Environment; Finite Element Modelling; Fiber Optic Sensors; Byggkonstruktion; Structural Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with asset management of structures through Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Digital Twins.Background: Current inspection and management processes for civil structures are time-consuming and can even be inaccurate. There is an increasingly high potential to improve these processes through recent advances in technology. READ MORE

  5. 5. On Reinforcement Learning and Digital Twins for Intelligent Automation

    Author : Constantin Cronrath; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Digital Twins; Intelligent Automation; Reinforcement Learning; manufacturing;

    Abstract : Current trends, such as the fourth industrial revolution and sustainable manufacturing, enable and necessitate manufacturing automation to become more intelligent to meet ever new design requirements in terms of flexibility, speed, quality, and cost. Two distinct research streams towards intelligent manufacturing exist in the scientific literature: the model-based digital twin approach and the data-driven learning approach. READ MORE
