Binär matchning av bilder med hjälp av vektorer från deneuklidiska avståndstransformen
This thesis shows the result from investigations of methods that use distance vectors when matching pictures. The distance vectors are available in a distance map made by the Euclidean Distance Transform. The investigated methods use the two characteristic features of the distance vector when matching pictures, length and direction. The length of the vector is used to calculate a value of how good a match is and the direction of the vector is used to predict a transformation to get a better match. The results shows that the number of calculation steps that are used during a search can be reduced compared to matching methods that only uses the distance during the matching..
"Är jag smal så blir jag lycklig." : En kvalitativ studie om hur behandlingspersonal reflekterar kring sociala påverkansfaktorer till ätstörningar
The background of the study consists of the fact that knowledge about how eating disorders are developed and maintained is extensive. Socio-cultural factors and media influence when developing an eating disorder is of significance. When reviewing literature and previous research, knowledge about practical attainments when treating eating disorders are insufficient. The aim of the study was therefore to examine how staff who treats eating disordered patients think about body ideals, strive for success and media influence in treatment and rehabilitation. The theory consists of Foucault?s theory of power, how beauty ideals are dependent of the cultural context in which we live and what qualities are associated with beauty and body ideals.
Barn med koncentrationssvårigheter
Detta examensarbete handlar om barn med koncentrationssvårigheter. Det övergripande syftet med arbetet är få en bred kunskapsbas inom området. Metoderna vi använt oss av är litteraturstudier och empiriska studier. För att skapa en ingående förståelse för barn med dessa svårigheter beskriver vi hur olika forskare definierar begreppet, vilka olika typer av koncentrationssvårigheter som finns, samt hur lärare och andra pedagoger kan hjälpa dessa barn. En viktig slutsats som kan dras är att pedagogerna i barnets omgivning måste ha goda kunskaper om, samt vara väl insatta i problematiken för att arbetet ska fungera och ge positivt resultat.
Posthuset blir hotell En studie av Centralposthuset i Göteborg och dess omvandling
This essay in Art History treats the former Central Post Office in Gothenburg, Sweden, and its recent transformation into a luxury hotel. The magnificent original building in neo-classical style, inaugurated in 1925, has been supplemented by a twelve stories high tower in postmodern style containing hotel rooms and suites, creating a complex architecture. The approach of this essay is that of ?lived architecture?, that is, how people experience and act in relation to the building. It is argued that the history of the building is rewritten in the marketing of the hotel and the management?s concept of creating a comfortable ?mini-world?for its guests.
Boksamtal : En språkutvecklande metod för andraspråkstalare
The main purpose of this essay is to study how classroom interaction can take place in a class for Second Language Learners (SLL).1 I have applied a case study methodology on a linguistic method used by a Teacher in Swedish as Second Language working on a primary school situated in the Southern suburbs of Stockholm. The learning method is based on extensive reading of books which comprehend several learning techniques organized into a process that support the development of linguistic skills such as discussing in a group, writing, reading and thinking in a second language. The methodology applied is based on observations, on an interview with a Teacher in Swedish as Second Language and on a questionnaire answered by 11 students that participated on ?Boksamtal?.Based on a theoretical framework about socio cultural theories on learning and scaffolding,2 I attempt to integrate theory and practice to investigate how the Teacher succeed on applying effective methods for second language learning. Through the analyses of the data is also my intention to emphasize the advantages and disadvantages of such a method.
?TOMMA HUS ALLAS HUS? - En studie om husockupationer
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the relationship between urban transformation and the occupation movement in Sweden, aiming to identify the movement's characteristics and comprehend its changes over time. By analyzing qualitative material collected from occupants active within a span from the 1980 to the present, we examine how the occupation movement has evolved. We investigate the motivations behind the movement, the lifestyle of occupants, and their potential gains to get a better understanding of the culture. We explore the prefigurative politics of the resistance where occupant activists create alternative lifestyles aligned with their desired future, bypassing the wait for broader societal changes. Finally we inquire the current possibilities of creating and defending meaningful urban spaces and social scenes..
Lärande i bråk - transformationer mellan representationsformer ur ett socialsemiotiskt multimodalt perspektiv
Denna studie presenterar ett preliminärt ramverk för analys av lärande i bråk inom ramen för transformationer mellan olika former av representationer. Ramverket används i en empirisk studie där åtta 10-åriga elever genomför uppgifter i bråk, som utvecklats för att utmana dem att reflektera över olika sätt att representera aspekter av begreppet bråk. Ramverket bygger på socialsemiotikens multimodala perspektiv. Analysen belyser hur ramverket hjälper till att strukturera förståelse för samspelet mellan representationer i inlärningen av bråk. Specifikt såg vi hur konkret fysiskt material och gester kompletterar symboliskt representation och talat språk i elevernas lösningar. .

Discourse analysis of the swedish integration politics
This essay is a discourse analysis of the integration politics of the different parties
in the Swedish parliament and the non-parliamentary party ?the Swedish
Democrats?, as it is presented on their respective web pages. The overall purpose
is to problematize and shed a light on how the current discourse(s) about
integration are constituted. Also of interest is how these construct our knowledge
and experience of the phenomena. We furthermore want to illustrate the social
consequences of such discourses on the construction and organization of identities
and groups, and, as a result, the courses of action that becomes available.
"Rom byggdes inte på en dag". En kvalitativ studie om strategiskt HR-arbete efter genomförandet av HR-transformation, samt förväntningarna mellan HR och linjecheferna
HR är en förkortning av Human Resources och kan på svenska översättas med begreppet humankapital. HR-funktionen utgörs vanligtvis av de tre områdena strategi, operativt arbete samt administration. Under de senaste åren har HR-funktionen genomgått en transformation där syftet har varit att skapa ett strategiskt och styrningsinriktat HR. Administrativa uppgifter flyttas ut till externa leverantörer (outsourcing) eller centraliseras och effektiviseras med hjälp av IT och alltmer personalansvar flyttas över till linjecheferna. Målet med transformationen är att det nya HR ska inriktas mot att skapa värde till både interna och externa aktörer.Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur det strategiska HR-arbetet genomförs i praktiken samt hur HR och linjechefer tillsammans arbetar mot att uppnå organisationsstrategin.
Det nya IV-programmet : en kvalitativ textanalys
The purpose of this study is to examine the view of knowledge and the view of learner which are prominent in the ministry memorandum Specific programs and access to vocational programs (U2009/5552/G) and thereby understand the potential impact of the new transformation of the current individual program and what it brings to the students who do not achieve the objectives in grade 9. We have used a qualitative text analysis method. The background to the study describes in particular today's individual program, view of knowledge and view of learner. The result shows that the most prominent in the memorandum is that knowledge is divided into theory and practice, that individualization is the focus and the text shows freedom for interpretation..
