Smart phones and sensor technology represent a key part of everyday life and are being used in areas such as safety, training, healthcare and others. Utilizing an array of internal sensors and a metal detector requires an evaluation of the precision of the measurements and performance reviews. Metal detectors are versatile, with uses in healthcare as well as recreational, but a common issue often ...

The goal of this thesis is to perform analysis of local climate effects for Martineåsen development project in Larvik. The Norwegian regulatory acts place a strict requirements on outdoor areas comfort criteria and thus for the purpose of said development project, strict adherence to these acts is necessary. The outdoor comfort in cold climate is mostly governed by wind, and thus study of local ...

The additive manufacturing or 3D printing (3DP) technologies have undergone exponential expansion, particularly in the previous couple of decades. Additive manufacturing technologies have paved the way for easy component manufacturing in large-scale and high-performance businesses. The introduction of desktop 3D printers has established 3DP as a reliable technique for generating prototypes and direct ...

In a bounded domain with a thin periodically punctured interface we study the limit behavior of the bottom of spectrum for a Steklov type spectral problem, the Steklov boundary condition being imposed on the perforation surface. For a certain range of parameters we construct the effective spectral problem and justify the convergence of eigenpairs.

In this article, we describe an approach to give automatic formative evaluation by atomizing the feedback. The mechanics in this approach is a large number of multiple-choice tests. The multiplechoice tests are used as voluntary assignments and gives controlled progression by releasing the tests in an order. Instruction is in the spirit of flipped classroom with short video lectures accompanied by ...

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether or not it is possible to perform automatic verification of UI Tests using Neural Networks. The problem being looked at is variance tied to the operating system, graphics card, or other hardware. This can cause false positives during UI testing, and thus we wanted to find a solution that could learn to ignore this, while still verifying the result. ...

Most simple blending functions are polynomials, while more advanced blending functions are, for example, rational or expo-rational fractions. The Fabius function has the required properties of a blending function, but is a nowhere analytic function and cannot be calculated exactly everywhere on the required domain. We present a new set of trigonometric and polynomial blending functions with the shape ...

We establish characterizations of both boundedness and of compactness of a general class of fractional integral operators involving the Riemann-Liouville, Hadamard, and Erdelyi-Kober operators. In particular, these results imply new results in the theory of Hardy type inequalities. As applications both new and well-known results are pointed out.

The purpose of this thesis is to set the groundwork for future research on developing a machine-learning based anomaly detection system for hospitalized patients. Our first step was to study and analyze the project’s needs, background, and literature examining similar criteria. In the second step, we interviewed medical experts and researchers. Based on our research and the suggestions received ...
