• Implementing Motivational Features for an Augmented Reality Game Encouraging Physical Activity for Persons with Intellectual Disabilities 

      Luzi, Thomas (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-31)
      Evidence shows lower physical activity (PA) levels in persons with an intellectual disability (ID) compared to the general population. Physical activity promotes multiple health benefits, such as prolonged life and reduced risk for obtaining various chronic diseases. There are numerous applications targeting increased physical activity for the general population, but these tend to be too complex to ...

      Elsebø, Kristian (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2015-06-01)
      With the development of SSDs, performance limitations in persistent storage have shifted from the underlying medium to the interface through which the host and disk communicates. NVMe is a recently developed standard for operating SSDs connected to a host through PCI Express, and offers significant performance improvements compared to conventional interfaces, as well as features designed for ...
    • Improving freshness of web-extracted metadata 

      Heimdal, Tord-Arne (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2009-12-18)
      Live video search is emerging as a platform for multimedia production and entertainment service. Such systems rely on a stream of live video and metadata describing the video content. A high quality source for such metadata can be found on the web. Identifying and extracting metadata from web pages can be done by crawling and scraping. However, general crawler politeness rules limit per-site ...

With SynQLite sites update their local replica without coordination from others sites, and sites converge once they have applied the same sets of updates. These sets of updates are fetched from the CRR and ...
    • Improving the usefulness of multimedia archives by applying data reduction techniques 

      Aarflot, Tjalve (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2009-02-05)
      In recent years, an increasing amount of personal images, video, sound and text data are captured and stored in a digital format. Increased storage capacity at lower cost entice us to attempt to store everything, but without effective information retrieval techniques, the usefulness of the data becomes limited. Some people have taken personal data capture to extremes and have begun to capture ...

    • Internet of Things Mini Display-based Motivation, Notification and Warning System for Groups of People with Diabetes Type 1 

      Mikalsen, Martin Haugen (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-06-01)
      Diabetes is a complex and time-consuming affair for the people that are afflicted by the disease. A strict self-management regime needs to be followed to avoid short- and long-term complications, which requires a great deal of motivation and support from others. Low- or high-blood glucose levels can cause short- and long-term consequences, ranging from headaches and thirst to coma. In the last few ...
    • Investigating and developing efficient federated learning for air pollution monitoring 

      Reinnes, Jørgen (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-06-01)
      Location-based data may be considered highly private; as such, handling location-based data requires that it cannot be used to track a user. In a network of multiple edge devices that each collect data, training a machine learning model would typically involve transmitting the data securely to a central server which requires strict privacy rules. Federated learning solves the privacy problem ...
    • Investigating the latency cost of statistical learning of a Gaussian mixture simulating on a convolutional density network with adaptive batch size technique for background modeling 

      Phan, Hung Ngoc (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-05-31)
