Lessons Learned Developing and Using a Machine Learning Model to Automatically Transcribe 2.3 Million Handwritten Occupation Codes
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-06)Machine learning approaches achieve high accuracy for text recognition and are therefore increasingly used for the transcription of handwritten historical sources. However, using machine learning in production requires a streamlined end-to-end pipeline that scales to the dataset size and a model that achieves high accuracy with few manual transcriptions. The correctness of the model results must ... -
Living with Heritage: Involuntary Entanglements of the Anthropocene – An Introduction
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-20)Heritage has come to be understood as a set of valued objects, landscapes and prac-tices to be preserved and maintained for the benefit of present and future generations (Harrison 2020, 20–31).

This paper explores this legacy through the perspective of contemporary archaeology to better understand how material culture from the Soviet period is being ... -
Long-Term Exposure to Low-Level formula PM2.5 and Mortality: Investigation of Heterogeneity by Harmonizing Analyses in Large Cohort Studies in Canada, United States, and Europe
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-01)Background: Studies across the globe generally reported increased mortality risks associated with particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter ≤ 2,5 μm (PM<sub>2,5</sub>) exposure with large heterogeneity in the magnitude of reported associations and the shape of concentration-response functions (CRFs). We aimed to evaluate the impact of key study design factors (including confounders, applied ... -
Læstadianismens Jerusalem: Om konstruksjoner av hellige steder
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018)The article examines the early ecclesiology of the Firstborn Laestadians in Northern Sweden and Norway where the geographical concept of “Lappland” (lappmark) became a significant term for the Laestadian congregations.

Mesolithic Pyrotechnology: Practices and Perceptions in Early Holocene Coastal Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-01)Substantial pyrotechnological structures and large quantities of charcoal are rarely found on Early Holocene sites in coastal Norway. Nevertheless, information on the use of fire and fuel types is available and presented in this article, a survey of sites dating from 10,000 to 8000 uncal BP. Possible fuel types and preferences are discussed and it is argued that most fires would have been small and ...
