A study of wavelets combined, if desired, with other methods for use in edge sharpening of ultrasound images
(Master thesis, 2003)The increased use of laparoscopic surgery has resulted in a growing interest in use of ultrasounds. Ultrasounds do not have any known side effects, and it provides the surgeon with real-time imaging. In spite of its ... -
A study of Wavelets for edge detection of anatomical structure on medical images
(Master thesis, 2004)Osteoporosis is a bone disease that makes your bone crumble away. To find out how thick your bone structure is, medical personnel uses x-ray images and measure the thickness of your bones. Today this is done manually by ... -
A study on permanent deformation and fatigue damage interaction in asphalt concrete
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The dominant load-induced damages, permanent deformation (PD) and fatigue cracking (F), are traditionally predicted separately by taking temperature as a variable of departure. This paper presents an experimental study of ... -
Study on support vector machine-based fault detection in Tennessee Eastman process
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This paper investigates the proficiency of support vector machine (SVM) using datasets generated by Tennessee Eastman process simulation for fault detection. Due to its excellent performance in generalization, the ... -
Study on the characteristics of electromagnetic noise of axial flux permanent magnet synchronous motor
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The normal electromagnetic force distribution in stator system of axial flux permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) has been thoroughly analyzed in this paper. The main composition of force wave causing vibration and ... -
Studying pupils’ mathematical thinking through problem solving and view of mathematics : Case studies of Finnish comprehensive school pupils
(Doctoral dissertations at University of Agder, Doctoral thesis, 2018) -
Successive losses of central immune genes characterize the Gadiformes’ alternate immunity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Great genetic variability among teleost immunomes, with gene losses and expansions of central adaptive and innate components, has been discovered through genome sequencing over the last few years. Here, we demonstrate that ... -
Sudoku meta-model
(Master thesis, 2008)This project is connected to the SMILE project at the University of Agder. In order to deal with the continuously increasing level of complexity in software, we need to use higher levels of abstraction. By using models ... -
Super-twisting based sliding mode control of hydraulic actuator without velocity state
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This paper provides a novel surface design and experimental evaluation of a super-twisting algorithm (STA) based control for hydraulic cylinder actuators. The proposed integral sliding surface allows to track a sufficiently ... -
A Supervised Attention-Based Multiclass Classifier for Tile Discarding in Japanese Mahjong
(Master thesis, 2021)Japanese Mahjong, an imperfect-information, multiplayer, multi-round game, has become an area of interest for the AI community due to its immense imperfect-information space and complex playing and scoring rules. In 2020 ... -
Supporting active learning through immersive mixed and virtual reality technologies
(Master thesis, 2023)As the world economies continue to grow, natural resources are being used at such high rates that may negatively affect future generations. One of the issues is that the general population may know some solutions for ... -

Supporting Effective Online Learning Groups for eLearning Systems
(Doctoral Dissertations at the University of Agder; no. 286, Doctoral thesis, 2020)Learning in groups has been advocated to increase learning based on the social constructivist learning theory. ICT has been preferred to bridge the gap between distance learning students for possibilities to enhance the ... -
Supporting fine-grained generative model-driven evolution
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)In the standard generative Model-driven Architecture (MDA), adapting the models of an existing system requires re-generation and restarting of that system. This is due to a strong separation between the modeling environment ... -
