Choices and omissions of knowledge and social impact in Finnish committee reports on Sámi policies
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)In Finland, the involvement of scholars in politics has been particularly strong: scholars and professors have occupied positions in high politics, produced research that was meant as a direct comment on topical political debates, and been active in civil society (Häggman, 2012). In addition to advising high politics and acting in civil society, the Finnish committee institution, a third emerging ... -
Global Paradoxes and Provocations in Education: Exploring Sustainable Futures for Children and Youth
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)Global trends in education are accompanied by both paradoxes and provocations. The paradoxes constitute inherent educational dilemmas, such as the paradox of institutional education, wherein social rules and mandatory tasks are played out as a means of imparting lessons about freedom and independence. Our argument in this chapter is that we should reconsider the ‘future’ of planned and controlled ... -
Nature Protection, Indigenous Rights, and Climate Action
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)Climate change is affecting indigenous peoples and their rights. However, indigenous peoples themselves are at the forefront of climate action, having protected nature for millennia, and now becoming increasingly aware of the active role they can play in the formulating and implementing processes of the international legal climate-change agenda.2 <p> <p>This chapter explores to what extent existing ... -
Vad hände med Johannes Schefferus bibliotek?
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)Mitt i Uppsala finns ett oansenligt, lågt hus som har stått på sin plats i hela 370 år: Genom 370 heta somrar och bitande kalla vintrar, vårstormar och höststormar, skyfall och stadsbränder, medan hus runt omkring kommit och gått, och stadens centrum sakta omvandlats till det vi har i dag, 2021. Johannes Schefferus (1621–1679) ”stenhus”, eller hans biblioteks- och museibyggnad, som vi talar om, är ... -

A Two-Stage Deep Modeling Approach to Articulatory Inversion
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021-05-13)This paper proposes a two-stage deep feed-forward neural network (DNN) to tackle the acoustic-to-articulatory inversion (AAI) problem. DNNs are a viable solution for the AAI task, but the temporal continuity of the estimated articulatory values has not been exploited properly when a DNN is employed. In this work, we propose to address the lack of any temporal constraints while enforcing a ... -
The Aesthetic Model of Disability
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021-08-16)This chapter explores the questions of how and why certain behaviours are perceived as an expression of a disability – and not, for example, as an mic expression – and what role art can play when it comes to constructing and (re) framing disability as a phenomenon. The chapter is based on three field studies conducted at the NewYoungArt [NyUngKunst] festival in Northern Norway during the period ... -

Shakespeare in Ibsen's Drama
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)Through comparative reading, I elaborate on claims in previous Ibsen research on Shakespeare’s influence on Ibsen. The main point is that aspects of Ibsen’s wayof creating dramatic characters from Brand (1866), Ibsen’s Scandinavian breakthrough, via An Enemy ofthe people (1882) to his last and modernistic play When We Dead Awaken (1899), can be regarded asinfluenced by Shakespeare, ... -
LightLayers: Parameter Efficient Dense and Convolutional Layers for Image Classification
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021-02-21)Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have become the de-facto standard in computer vision, as well as in many other pattern recognition tasks. A key drawback of DNNs is that the training phase can be very computationally expensive. Organizations or individuals that cannot afford purchasing state-of-the-art hardware or tapping into cloud hosted infrastructures may face a long waiting time before the training ... -
Skolers læringspraksiser og nyutdannede lærere
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)I dette kapitlet bruker vi teorien om praksisarkitekturer som en linse for å undersøke hvordan nyutdannede lærere med en femårig integrert masterutdanning erfarer å inkluderes og få støtte gjennom skolens læringspraksis det første året i yrket. Kapitlet gir innsikt i hvordan individuelle og sosiale læringspraksiser i skolen får konsekvenser for nyutdannede læreres videre læring og utvikling og deres ... -
Cost-Efficient High-Resolution Linear Absorption Spectra Through Extrapolating the Dipole Moment from Real-Time Time-Dependent Electronic-Structure Theory
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023)We present a novel function fitting method for approximating the propagation of the time-dependent electric dipole moment from real-time electronic structure calculations. Real-time calculations of the electronic absorption spectrum require discrete Fourier transforms of the electric dipole moment. The spectral resolution is determined by the total propagation time, i.e. the trajectory length of the ... -

Automatic Unsupervised Clustering of Videos of the Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) Procedure
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023-02-02)The in vitro fertilization procedure called intracytoplasmic sperm injection can be used to help fertilize an egg by injecting a single sperm cell directly into the cytoplasm of the egg. In order to evaluate, refine and improve the method in the fertility clinic, the procedure is usually observed at the clinic. Alternatively, a video of the procedure can be examined and labeled in a time-consuming ... -
Markedsundersøkelse: Norsk varmrøkt laks til Japan
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-11-16)min studie vil jeg se på muligheten for å introdusere et nytt lakseprodukt til Japan, Varmrøykt laks. Varmrøkt laks ble valgt som utgangspunkt fordi dette er et bearbeidet lakseprodukt som antatt hadde ingen eller lite anerkjennelse i Japan. Ved å introdusere et bearbeidet lakseprodukt ingen hadde noe forhold til og deretter måle oppfatning av dette produktet, kunne man si noe om mulighetene for ... -
