Estimating the distance between a sound source and receiver is an important problem. This thesis explores the possibility of estimating distance from a sound source using the attenuations regarding different frequencies over a distance. This method can be useful in cases where currently existing distance approxima- tion methods are not an option. We aimed to use an image recognition convolu- tiona

EU har under de senaste åren satt upp målet att bli klimatneutral till 2050. För att nå upp till målet har EU-kommissionen identifierat att det behövs en massiv ekonomisk investering i hållbara ekonomiska aktiviteter runt om i EU. Denna omställning kan inte lösas utan stöd från privata investeringar och som en lösning på detta har EU-kommissionen infört EU:s gröna taxonomi som ska hjälpa entiteterThe EU has over the last few years set up the objective to become climate neutral by the year 2050. To achieve this objective, the European Commission has recognised the need for a massive transition investment into sustainable economic activities. The European Commission has also recognised that this investment cannot be done without the help of private funding which is why the European Commissio
Under de senaste årtiondena har det skett en ökning av antalet anmälda sexualbrott, inte minst sexuella ofredanden. Därtill synliggjorde #metoo- rörelsen omfattningen av mäns sexuella våld mot kvinnor och gav nytt bränsle åt diskussionen om rättvisa för brottsoffer. Arbetet skrivs i ljuset av denna utveckling och syftar till att undersöka hur många anmälningar om sexuella ofredanden som leder tiIn recent decades, there has been an increase in the number of reported sexual offences in Sweden, including sexual molestation. Additionally, the #metoo movement highlighted the extent of men's sexual violence against women and created momentum for the debate on justice for victims. Considering these developments, this study aims to examine how many reports of sexual molestation result in a
Den ”nya” rättegångsbalken trädde i kraft 1948 vilket satte grunden för den svenska straffprocessen med flertalet grundläggande rättssäkerhetsprinci-per. Samhället som processen hade att hantera då – 1948 – avviker väsent-ligt från såväl dagens samhälle som brottslighet. Trots detta har reglerna som reglerar den svenska rättsprocessen, sedan de infördes förhållit sig relativt oförändrade. Den 1 j
År 1994 såg det internationella samfundet passivt på medan uppskattnings-vis 800 000 människor förlorade sina liv i ett folkmord i Rwanda. Fem år senare inledde NATO en militär intervention i Kosovo med argumentet att det rörde sig om en "humanitär intervention". I båda fallen var säkerhetsrå-det oförmöget eller ovilligt att agera, trots att det var tänkt att agera som beskyddare av värlIn 1994 the international community stood idly by while an estimated 800.000 people lost their lives in a genocide in Rwanda. Five years later, NATO launched its military intervention in Kosovo, with the argument that it was a ‘humanitarian intervention’. In both cases, the Security Council was unable or unwilling to act although it was supposed to act as the protector of world peace and security.
Lots of old properties in Italy are in need of getting a restoration, renovation or modernization. Most of these buildings have been abandoned many years ago, and people are now trying to raise awareness about the situation in Italy.

Just because a desert is a dry and arid wasteland today does not mean that it has always been, nor that it forever will be. This document will test the potential and feasibility of establishing or re-establishing a healthy, self-sustaining, green ecosystem in a desert or arid environment by the use of an intelligent autonomous robotic network functioning as one system. The project’s architecture
Civil society is regarded to be a cornerstone in democratic societies and therefore an essential field of social science (Wijkström & Lundström 2002, Harding 2012). However the leadership of civil society organizations (CSOs) has been bypassed (Wijkström & Malmborg 2005). In this study I have interviewed three leaders from the Swedish Red Cross and three others from Swedish Save the Childr
Bakgrund: Diabetes typ 2 är en kronisk och ökande folksjukdom som kräver livslång behandling.
