- Nowadays, the soar of photovoltaic performance of perovskite solar cells has set off a fever in the study of metal halide perovskite materials. The excellent optoelectronic properties and defect tolerance feature allow metal halide perovskite to be employed in a wide variety of applications. This article provides a holistic review over the current progress and future prospects of metal halide perovskite materials in representative promising applications, including traditional optoelectronic devices (solar cells, light-emitting diodes, photodetectors, lasers), and cutting-edge technologies in terms of neuromorphic devices (artificial synapses and memristors) and pressure-induced emission. This review highlights the fundamentals, the current progress and the remaining challenges for each application, aiming to provide a comprehensive overview of the development status and a navigation of future research for metal halide perovskite materials and devices.

- In this paper, we present an active contour model for image segmentation based on a nonparametric distribution metric without any intensity a priori of the image. A novel nonparametric distance metric, which is called joint probability classification, is established to drive the active contour avoiding the instability induced by multimodal intensity distribution. Considering an image as a Riemannian manifold with spatial and intensity information, the contour evolution is performed on the image manifold by embedding geometric image feature into the active contour model. The experimental results on medical and texture images demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method.

Wireless video sensor network and its applications in digital zoo

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Most computing and communicating devices have been personal computers that were connected to Internet through a fixed network connection. It is believed that future communication devices will not be of this type. Instead the intelligence and communication capability will move into various objects that surround us. This is often referred to as the "Internet of Things" or "Wireless Embedded Internet". This thesis deals with video processing and communication in these types of systems. One application scenario that is dealt with in this thesis is real-time video transmission over wireless ad-hoc networks. Here a set of devices automatically form a network and start to communicate without the need for any previous infrastructure. These devices act as both hosts and routers and can build up large networks where they forward information for each other. We have identified two major problems when sending real-time video over wireless ad-hoc networks. One is the reactive design used by most ad-hoc routing protocols. When nodes move some links that are used in the communication path between the sender and the receiver may disappear. The reactive routing protocols wait until some links on the path breaks and then start to search for a new path. This will lead to long interruptions in packet delivery and does not work well for real-time video transmission. Instead we propose an approach where we identify when a route is about to break and start to search for new routes before this happen. This is called a proactive approach. Another problem is that video codecs are very sensitive for packet losses and at the same time the wireless ad-hoc network is very error prone. The most common way to handle lost packets in video codecs is to periodically insert frames that are not predictively coded. This method periodically corrects errors regardless there has been an error or not. The method we propose is to insert frames that are not predictively coded directly after a packet has been lost, and only if a packet has been lost. Another area that is dealt with in this thesis is video sensor networks. These are small devices that have communication and computational capacity, they are equipped with an image sensor so that they can capture video. Since these devices in general have very limited resources in terms of energy, computation, communication and memory they demand a lot of the video compression algorithms used. In standard video compression algorithms the complexity is high for the encoder while the decoder has low complexity and is just passively controlled by the encoder. We propose video compression algorithms for wireless video sensor networks where complexity is reduced in the encoder by moving some of the image analysis to the decoder side. We have implemented our approach on actual low-power sensor nodes to test our developed algorithms. Finally we have built a "Digital Zoo" that is a complete system including a large scale outdoor video sensor network. The goal is to use the collected data from the video sensor network to create new experiences for physical visitors in the zoo, or "cyber" visitors from home. Here several topics that relate to practical deployments of sensor networks are addressed.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A highly efficient iridium N,P-ligand-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of functionalized tetrasubstituted olefins lacking a directing group has been developed. Various structural diverse chiral succinate derivatives were obtained in high yields and excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivities (up to 99% ee) using 0.5-1.0 mol % catalyst loadings. This stereoselective reaction is applicable for the synthesis of chiral acyclic molecules (up to >99% ee) having two contiguous stereogenic centers and is compatible with various aromatic, aliphatic, and heterocyclic systems, a variety of functional groups of different electronic nature. Furthermore, this asymmetric protocol allows a short enantioselective route to the butyrolactone building block, an intermediate in the synthesis of anticancer agent BMS-871 and pharmaceuticals (2S)-(-)-Verapamil and (2S)-(-)-Gallopamil.

Chemoselective Iridium-catalysed Peterson olefination/Asymmetric Hydrogenation of beta-Hydroxy Silaned
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Herein we report the use of Ir-N,P catalysts for the asymmetric hydrogenation of β-hydroxy silanes via an in-situ generated olefin intermediate. The reaction proceeds via an acid catalysed Peterson olefination reaction and provides hydrogenated products in excellent ee’s of up to 99% accompanied with high isolated yields under mild reaction conditions and short reaction times. Modification of the reaction conditions provides a choice to hydrogenate either an olefin or a β-hydroxy silane in a chemo-selective manner leaving the other functionality unaffected in the product.

- Here, we report the first Ir-N,P complex catalyzed tandem Peterson olefination and asymmetric hydrogenation of -hydroxy silanes. This reaction resulted in the formation of chiral alkanes in high isolated yields (up to 99%) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee) under mild conditions. Modification of the reaction conditions provides a choice to transform either an olefin or the -hydroxy silane in a chemoselective manner. Additionally, based on this method, an expedient enantioselective synthesis of (S)-(+)--curcumene, from a simple ketone, was accomplished in two steps with 75% overall yield and 95% ee.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper proposes a novel swarm intelligence optimization method which integrates bacterial foraging optimization (BFO) with quantum computing, called quantum bacterial foraging optimization (QBFO) algorithm. In QBFO, a multi-qubit which can represent a linear superposition of states in search space probabilistically is used to represent a bacterium, so that the quantum bacteria representation has a better characteristic of population diversity. A quantum rotation gate is designed to simulate the chemotactic step to drive the bacteria toward better solutions. Several tests are conducted based on benchmark functions including multi-peak function to evaluate optimization performance of the proposed algorithm. The numeric results show that the proposed QBFO has more powerful properties in convergence rate, stability and the ability of searching for the global optimal solution than the original BFO and quantum genetic algorithm. In addition, we applied our proposed QBFO to solve the traveling salesman problem, which is a well-known NP-hard problem in combinatorial optimization. The results indicate that the proposed QBFO shows better convergence behavior without premature convergence, and has more powerful properties in convergence rate, stability and the ability of searching for the global optimal solution, as compared to ant colony optimization algorithm and quantum genetic algorithm.

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the biological immune process, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) plays an indispensable role in the expression of HLA molecules in the human body when viral infection activates the T-cell response to remove the virus. Since the first case of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in 2019, how to address and prevent SARS-CoV-2 has become a common problem facing all mankind. The T-cell immune response activated by MHC peptides is a way to construct a defense line and reduce the transmission and harm of the virus. Presentation of SARS-CoV-2 antigen is associated with different types of HLA phenotypes, and different HLA phenotypes induce different immune responses. The prediction of SARS-CoV-2 mutation information and the design of vaccines based on HLAs can effectively activate autoimmunity and cope with virus mutations, which can provide some references for the prevention and treatment of SARS-CoV-2.
