Ontology-based clinical decision support system applied on diabetes
2017
Master's thesis Information- and communication technology IKT590 - University of Agder 2017 Medical diagnosis is a multi-step process which is complex as it requires the consideration of many factors. Additionally, the accuracy of diagnosis varies depending on the skill and knowledge a physician has in the medical field. Using ICT solution, the physicians can be assisted so that they can make an accurate decision. Many applications have been developed to enhance physician performance and improve the patient outcome, however, the quality of these applications varies depending on knowledge representation methodology and reasoning approach adopted. Nowadays, ontology is being used in many clin…
Achieving Sustainability Through Geodata: An Empirical Study of Challenges and Barriers
2020
Master's thesis in Information systems (IS501) Research within data management is often based on the elements of the data lifecycle. Organizations and businesses are also becoming more interested in data lifecycle management to leverage their data streams, compounded by an interest in geographical attributes within the data –referred to as geodata. Geodata provides a richer basis for analysis and is increasingly important within urban planning. Furthermore, the pressure to achieve sustainability goals calls for improving the data lifecycle. The challenge remainsas to what can be improvedwithin the data lifecycle –with geodata as an important input –to achieve sustainability dimensions. Our …
Project report : Evaluering av INSITU skogbrannøvelse
2021
Rapporten presenterer resultater fra evaluering av en digital tabletop-øvelse arrangert av INSITU-prosjektet i april 2021, der scenarioet omfattet 3 samtidige skogbranner i Agder. Hensikt med øvelsen var å gi erfaring med hvordan situasjonsbilde kan deles fra innsatsleder til sentrale myndigheter med bruk av felles digital kartstøtte. Øvelsen involverte ca. 70 deltagere fra 20 etater og organisasjoner, i tillegg til prosjektgruppen fra INSITU.

State Estimator using Hybrid Kalman and Particle Filter for Indoor UAV Navigation
2021
Master's thesis in Mechatronics (MAS500) Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are being used for outdoors inspection and surveying tasks. When operating in an outdoor environment, the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is predominantly used for position aiding, and magnetometers are used for heading aiding. In combination with an inertial sensor, these sensors form the backbone for state estimation for drones operating in an outdoor environment. A desire to utilize UAVs for inspections in indoor environments means that new challenges are faced. One of these challenges is that the traditional GNSS is unavailable for position aiding, and magnetometers can be unreliable in the presence of in…
Implementering av maskinsyn for montering av fasadeplater
2017
Masteroppgave i mekatronikk MAS500 - Universitetet i Agder 2017 The construction industry has seen a surge in efficiency and automation solutions in recent years. MacGregor, in cooperation with the University of Agder want to use crane and lifting technology to streamline construction processes. Facade panels are widely used due to ease of installation and require minimal maintenance. The process associated with installation has an automation potential. This thesis looks at the implementation of machine vision for installation of facade panels. Installation is done using a ABB IRB6600 industrial robot and a vacuum tool. The machine vision is based on OpenCV and C++. The main components of t…
Using AI and Robotics for EV battery cable detection.: Development and implementation of end-to-end model-free 3D instance segmentation for industria…
2021
Master's thesis in Information- and communication technology (IKT590) This thesis describes a novel method for capturing point clouds and segmenting instances of cabling found on electric vehicle battery packs. The use of cutting-edge perception algorithm architectures, such as graph-based and voxel-based convolution, in industrial autonomous lithium-ion battery pack disassembly is being investigated. The thesis focuses on the challenge of getting a desirable representation of any battery pack using an ABB robot in conjunction with a high-end structured light camera, with "end-to-end" and "model-free" as design constraints. The thesis employs self-captured datasets comprised of several batt…
Learning Automata based Shiftable Domestic Load Scheduling in Smart Grid: Accuracy and Fairness
2016
Master's thesis in Information- and communication technology IKT590 - University of Agder 2016 In this thesis, investigation is carried out on scheduling of shiftable loads which involves partly selection of loads within the power budget of operator. Domestic shiftable loads are scheduled along multiple timeslots with the considerations of the accuracy of scheduling in terms of optimization of capacity and of the fairness between appliances in terms of frequency of usage in smart grids. Since the scheduled load can not be over the capacity, the global optimal point is a combination of loads which are most close or equal to but not over the capacity. This optimization problem is shown to be …
