Understanding ‘many’ through the lens of Ukrainian багато
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-17)We reveal an ongoing language change in Ukrainian involving a construction with a sub- ject comprised of the indefinite quantifier багато ‘many’ modifying a noun phrase in the Genitive Plural. Number agreement on the verb varies, allowing both Singular (in 69.1% of attestations) and Plural (in 30.9% of attestations). Based on statistical analysis of corpus data, we investigate the influence of the ... -

What the textbooks don’t teach about the reality of running a digitally enabled health study: an interpretative phenomenological interview study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-09-24)Background Most studies do not produce their intended outcomes on time or within budget. However, it is challenging to identify the facilitators and barriers to successful study management when the “behind the scenes action” of especially digitally enabled health research studies are akin to a black box. Therefore, it is necessary to explore first-hand experience of the facilitators and barriers ... -
Cross-modality sub-image retrieval using contrastive multimodal image representations
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-13)In tissue characterization and cancer diagnostics, multimodal imaging has emerged as a powerful technique. Thanks to computational advances, large datasets can be exploited to discover patterns in pathologies and improve diagnosis. However, this requires efficient and scalable image retrieval methods. Cross-modality image retrieval is particularly challenging, since images of similar (or even the ... -

Future sea ice weakening amplifies wind-driven trends in surface stress and Arctic Ocean spin-up
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-12)Arctic sea ice mediates atmosphere-ocean momentum transfer, which drives upper ocean circulation. How Arctic Ocean surface stress and velocity respond to sea ice decline and changing winds under global warming is unclear. Here we show that state-of-the-art climate models consistently predict an increase in future (2015–2100) ocean surface stress in response to increased surface wind speed, declining ... -
Associations between levels of physical activity and satisfaction with life among Norwegian adolescents: a cross-sectional study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-01)Background: A robust association between physical activity (PA) and satisfaction with life (SWL) has been established, wherein self-efficacy has been identified as a mediator across different populations. However, there is a need to further examine the relationship between PA and SWL and whether self-efficacy act a as mediator within different levels of PA among Norwegian adolescents. Thus, the ... -
Overview of the First Pathloss Radio Map Prediction Challenge
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-06-26)Pathloss quantifies the reduction in power density of a signal radiated from a transmitter. The attenuation is due to large-scale effects such as free-space propagation loss and interactions (e.g., penetration, reflection, and diffraction) of the signal with objects such as buildings, vehicles, trees, and pedestrians in the propagation environment. Many current or planned wireless communications ... -
Prompt closure versus gradual weaning of external ventricular drain for hydrocephalus following aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage: a statistical analysis plan for the DRAIN randomised clinical trial
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-07-15)Background - Insertion of an external ventricular drain (EVD) is a first-line treatment of acute hydrocephalus caused by aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH). Once the patient is clinically stable, the EVD is either removed or replaced by a permanent internal shunt. The optimal strategy for cessation of the EVD is unknown. Prompt closure carries a risk of acute hydrocephalus or redundant shunt ... -
