Open-door policy versus treatment-as-usual in urban psychiatric inpatient wards: a pragmatic, randomised controlled, non-inferiority trial in Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-06)Background - Open-door policy is a recommended framework to reduce coercion in psychiatric wards. However, existing observational data might not fully capture potential increases in harm and use of coercion associated with open-door policies. In this first randomised controlled trial, we compared coercive practices in open-door policy and treatment-as-usual wards in an urban hospital setting. We ... -
Teknologi for automatisk sortering av tørrfisk
(Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2024-04-15)Tørking av fisk ute på hjell er en tradisjonell og mye brukt metode for konservering av fisk. Kvaliteten på sluttproduktet blir i stor grad avhengig av værforhold under tørking og kvaliteten på råstoffet som henges. Når fisken tørkes ute blir den utsatt for variasjon i temperatur, vind, sol og fuktighet. Til sammen gir dette en tørket og modnet fisk som har karakteristisk lukt, smak og konsistens. ... -

Decision-making styles and trust across farmers and bankers: Global survey results
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-02-15)Understanding in which contexts professionals come to trust their gut is critical both for human relations as well as for human–computer interaction. A prominent viewpoint promotes a deliberate trust development approach for professionals in all industries and at all levels of organizations (people use good thinking). The use of intuition has also been related to trust development. There is little ... -

Barnehagelærere med ny identitet. Ikke lenger profesjonsnomader?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023-08-15)When professionals leave the profession for which they were trained, it is reasonable to assume that society has a challenge. Important theoretical and practical expertise and knowledge leave the sector. Often, escape routes from a profession are also a signal that those who are professionally educated are not satisfied with the working conditions at their workplace - a signal of an identity crisis ... -

Long-term operational planning for flexible residential buildings with seasonal storage and capacity-based grid tariffs
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-07)When performing operation of the energy system in a building, it is difficult to accurately represent the uncertain long-term objectives in the short-term window, and the correlation between long-term objectives. This work investigates a strategic modelling framework for representing long-term incentives during short-term operational planning for an energy system within flexible buildings. Multi-stage ... -

Data-driven approaches for identifying hyperparameters in multi-step retrosynthesis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-07)The multi-step retrosynthesis problem can be solved by a search algorithm, such as Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS). The performance of multistep retrosynthesis, as measured by a trade-off in search time and route solvability, therefore depends on the hyperparameters of the search algorithm. In this paper, we demonstrated the effect of three MCTS hyperparameters (number of iterations, tree depth, and ... -

Multiscaling Differential Contraction Integral Method for Inverse Scattering Problems with Inhomogeneous Media
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-10)Practical applications of microwave imaging often require the solution of inverse scattering problems with inhomogeneous backgrounds. Toward this end, a novel inversion strategy, which combines the multiscaling (MS) regularization scheme and the difference contraction integral equation (DCIE) formulation, is proposed. Such an integrated approach mitigates the nonlinearity and the ill-posedness of ... -
Learning-Assisted Inversion for Solving Nonlinear Inverse Scattering Problem
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-21)Solving inverse scattering problems (ISPs) is challenging because of its intrinsic ill-posedness and the nonlinearity. When dealing with highly nonlinear ISPs, i.e., those scatterers with high contrast and/or electrically large size, the traditional iterative nonlinear inversion methods converge slowly and take lots of computation time, even maybe trapped into local wrong solution. To alleviate the ... -
Small collections remembered: Sámi material culture and community-based digitization at the Smithsonian Institution
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-18)Of the 158 million things housed by the Smithsonian Institution, about 56 objects originate from Sámi communities. By all accounts a small group of objects—even by the standards of the Arctic collections at the Institution—it may be easily overlooked or dismissed as insignificant, based on entrenched ideologies about idealized collections. Presenting a community-based methodology for the engagement ... -
High rifampicin peak plasma concentrations accelerate the slow phase of bacterial decline in tuberculosis patients: Evidence for heteroresistance
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-13)Background - Antibiotic treatments are often associated with a late slowdown in bacterial killing. This separates the killing of bacteria into at least two distinct phases: a quick phase followed by a slower phase, the latter of which is linked to treatment success. Current mechanistic explanations for the in vitro slowdown are either antibiotic persistence or heteroresistance. Persistence is defined ...
