Pojkar spelar fotboll och flickor hoppar hage : En undersökning av kön och genus och dess relation till skolan

Uppsatsens första syfte är att utreda begreppen kön och genus. Vad kan dessa omdebatterade begrepp ha för olika betydelse? Uppsatsen andra syfte är att, med hjälp av en liten studie, ge exempel på hur en undersökning av kön och genus i skolan kan se ut. Studien tar sin utgångspunkt i På lika villkor, ett jämställdhetsprojekt som startade i Falu kommun 1994. Påverkar lärarens deltagande i projektet elevernas sätt att vara i förhållande till genus? Svaret blir både nej och ja.

Machine vision for the automatic classification of images acquired from Non-destructive tests

This project is based on Artificial Intelligence (A.I) and Digital Image processing (I.P) for automatic condition monitoring of sleepers in the railway track. Rail inspection is a very important task in railway maintenance for traffic safety issues and in preventing dangerous situations. Monitoring railway track infrastructure is an important aspect in which the periodical inspection of rail rolling plane is required.Up to the present days the inspection of the railroad is operated manually by trained personnel. A human operator walks along the railway track searching for sleeper anomalies. This monitoring way is not more acceptable for its slowness and subjectivity. Hence, it is desired to automate such intuitive human skills for the development of more robust and reliable testing methods. Images of wooden sleepers have been used as data for my project. The aim of this project is to present a vision based technique for inspecting railway sleepers (wooden planks under the railway track) by automatic interpretation of Non Destructive Test (NDT) data using A.I. techniques in determining the results of inspection.
