This paper investigates the impact of financial development as a bi-dimensional concept on inequality in a regional comparison of Asian as well as Latin American countries. The policy has previously been explicitly proposed for middle-income economies to boost growth and overall prosperity. While allowing for nonlinearities, this paper exploits both static, fixed effects as well as dynamic GMM est

Följande studie strävar efter att sammanställa uppfattningar och insikter hos erfarna pianolärare på gymnasium i frågor kring gehör och notläsning. Samtliga informanter undervisar främst i gehörsmusik som jazz och rock/pop. Studien använder sig av kvalitativa intervjuer Målet är att ta reda på lärares syn på nyttan deras gymnasieelever har i ett starkt gehör och i notläsningskunskaper. Studien undThe study aims at compiling the views of experienced piano teachers at gymnasium in matters of playing music, hearing based and/or by reading music. All participants in the study teach mainly in hearing-based genres such as jazz and rock/pop. The study is using qualitative interviews. The aim is to find out the teachers views about which use their students may have of hearing based compared to not

Estimating depth from an image is an ill-fitted problem, since we project a three-dimensional space to a two-dimensional image. However, human can estimate a plausible depth from only a single eye and often are we relaying on this for quick estimation of moving objects. Although machine learning has shown to be powerful in computer vision tasks, the process of constructing deep learning models is

Electric cars are by many considered a sustainable solution to the ever-growing demand for road vehicles and fuel. The transportation sector is responsible for almost a third of the total greenhouse gas emissions globally and approximately 80% of these emissions can be attributed to road vehicles. Thus, there is an urgent need for a shift away from fossil fuels in the sector. While the consumer in

In this thesis, dynamically controlled machine learning algorithms running on state of the art Arm microNPUs, with an attached Cortex-M CPU, were investigated. The machine learning framework used was Tensorflow and different subsets of it, such as Tensorflow Lite micro. Compiling the network to run on the microNPU was done with the use of an open-source compiler called, Vela. In order to investiga

Since the beginning of wireless communication, one of the central problems has been resource management and maximization of network throughput. Solving these recurring issues is an important topic in the field of wireless communication to increase application options and the user experience. The existing methods for solving the issue of inter cell interference by maximizing the network capacity ar

HBTQIA+ personer i Sverige är relativt jämställda med heterosexuella cis-personer i jämförelse med andra länder men det finns tidigare forskning som visar på att det finns informella processer som förhindrar den jämställdheten. Syftet med studien är därför att belysa dessa processer och se hur de påverkar homosexuella personer i Sverige för att synliggöra eventuella problem. Studien avgränsar sig

Laser induced shockwaves have previously been shown to prompt structural changes in germanium. Similar experiments have now been performed in InSb, with powder diffraction patterns displaying a peak at 2.3Å indicating the formation of an unknown structure. In this work, large scale molecular dynamics simulations of shockwave propagation in germanium and InSb are presented. The results are in excel

Aviation is known to be safe, partly due to highly specialized pilots who undergo extensive training to fulfill and maintain their function at the sharp end. More demands are placed on the pilots as complexity continues to grow in aviation. This is due to more technology, more rules of compliance, more diversity in operations, and less time to do it all in the aggressive competitive world of avia

The aim of this paper is to examine how the covid-19 pandemic and the restrictions around have effected domestic violence against women in Sweden. The year 2020 has been affected hard by the coronavirus spreading throughout the world. Alot of nations applied a lockdown strategy to fight the spread of the virus. Sweden choosed to handle things differently and let the government give out recommendat

The momentum effect is a persistent and stable phenomenon, achieving very high abnormal returns, which could not yet be explained by conventional pricing models. However, this very high returns are punctuated by extreme strategy crashes leading to high losses, for which investors need decades to recover from. This makes momentum less attractive for risk-averse investors and motivates an appropriat

Aviation in Europe has undergone an enormous change from national rulemaking to common European rulemaking. Behind this change is the European Union’s decision to delegate some policy implementation functions to decentralised agencies. The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) is one of these EU agencies and has specific authorisation to implement decisions that directly impact individuals,

In nature, for example through mechanical degradation (e.g., plastic waste in the sea) and through the exposure to UV-radiation, plastics can degrade to microplastics and eventually to even smaller plastic nanoparticles. Studies performed under laboratory conditions have shown that plastic nanoparticles can accumulate in the liver and the brain of fishes, hence plastic nanoparticles can cause brai

I dagens samhälle finns det en stor drivkraft att verka för mer hållbara alternativ till de fossila material som varit allmänt förekommande i flera områden av bland annat energiproduktion. Den begränsade mängden kombinerat med de klimatförändrande effekterna av växthusgasutsläpp skapar inte bara en efterfrågan utan gör det ytterst nödvändigt att hitta nya vägar för samhällsutveckling. En sektor soAs concerns grow ever larger about the negative effects of CO2 emissions, the use of hydrogen gas as an alternative to fossil fuels is becoming a more attractive objective. This however, requires practical ways of storing and transporting a highly flammable gas and is generally not compatible with much of the existing infrastructure. One proposed solution to this problem is implementation of liqui

This thesis examines the Global Britain discourse and its articulation in the Integrated Review, a foreign policy paper, published by the British Government in March 2021. Global Britain is not a new phenomenon but an imperial legacy. The study highlights this legacy and underlines what British foreign policy focuses on in the future post-Brexit world. Faircloughian critical discourse analysis and

In 5G communications, Non-terrestrial Network (NTN) is envisioned to complement Terrestrial Network (TN) to increase network availability, scalability and continuity. Positioning of User Equipment (UE) is critical for the operation of NTN. Currently, NTN uses Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) for positioning. However, the use of GNSS to complement NTN operation has some drawbacks such as h

Packaging of fast food and take-out food involves a significant amount of material that ends up in landfills, recycling and litter. This is because the packaging is designed only for a single-use. There’s no future in single-use products and that includes single-use takeaway packaging. Influenced by the negative image of plastic, individual restaurants and food vendors are increasingly switching
