The increasing popularity of social networks and users’ tendency towards sharing their feelings, expressions, and opinions in text, visual, and audio content have opened new opportunities and challenges in sentiment analysis. While sentiment analysis of text streams has been widely explored in the literature, sentiment analysis from images and videos is relatively new. This article focuses on ...

We argue that plebiscitary theories of secession have more permissive implications than has thus far been recognized, by proponents and critics alike. The plebiscitary theory aims to devise a principle for the moral right to secede. This principle implies, we claim, that the view under many circumstances is unable to distinguish between secession of collectives and individuals. Thus, not only large ...

This paper investigates the means through which a series of artistic works invite critical responses to algorithmic governance and the systems of surveillance and data capture these draw upon. In combining the theoretical frameworks of Cornelius Castoriadis, Jacques Ranciére, and Chantal Mouffe, we conceptualize how, and to what possible effects, art can engage politics and focus the discussion on ...

We combine quartz textural analysis with Titanium-in-quartz (TitaniQ) geothermometry to investigate the late stages of deformation in mylonitic rocks from the Sucuru dike swarm in the Borborema Province. The wide range in TitaniQ temperatures (>340 to 740 °C) closely related to grain sizes are attributed to inefficient Ti resetting during bulging (BLG) and subgrain rotation (SGR) recrystallization. ...

I et tankevekkende intervju i Adresseavisen på lørdag tar dirigenten og bratsjisten Torodd Wigum til orde for bedre mediedekning av klassisk musikk. Det er gode grunner til å støtte Wigums initiativ. Men Wigum sier ikke mye om hva slags musikkjournalistikk han vil ha. La oss ta debatten!

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are propelling advances in a range of different computer vision tasks such as object detection and object segmentation. Their success has motivated research in applications of such models for medical image analysis. If CNN-based models are to be helpful in a medical context, they need to be precise, interpretable, and uncertainty in predictions must be well ...

Mange unge voksne reiser til utviklingsland for å delta på prosjekter som skal hjelpe lokale samfunn og samtidig være en lærerik opplevelse for de som velger å jobbe som internasjonale frivillige. Jeg har tatt reisen til Brasil for å gå nærmere inn på hvorfor unge voksne ønsker å delta i en frivillighetskultur og hvordan det fungerer. Og til slutt sett på hvordan frivillig arbeid og bistandsorganisasjoner ...

The Collaborative Symbiotic Weather Forecasting system, CSWF, let individual users do on-demand small region, short-term, and very high-resolution forecasts. When the regions have some overlap, a symbiotic forecast can be produced based on the individual forecasts from each region. Small differences in where the center of the region is located when there is complex terrain in the region, leads to ...

Integration has become a buzzword in debates and discussions on immigration which also reflects upon Norwegian policymaking. In this article, we do a policy analysis of twenty-nine Norwegian governmental documents published between 1973 and 2021 and ask how the understanding of integration has changed during that time. We further ask how integration has been problematized in these documents. Our ...
