Comparison of face verification results on the XM2VTS database
- 2000

In: Proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Pattern Recognition (ICPR'00) - Volume 4. - 0769507506 ; , s. 858-863

Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The paper presents results of the face verification contest that was organized in conjunction with International Conference on Pattern Recognition 2000 [14]. Participants had to use identical data sets from a large, publicly available multimodal database XM2VTSDB. Training and evaluation was carried out according to an a priori known protocol ([7]). Verification results of all tested algorithms have been collected and made public on the XM2VTSDB website [15], facilitating large scale experiments on classifier combination and fusion. Tested methods included, among others, representatives of the most common approaches to face verification - elastic graph matching, Fisher's linear discriminant and Support vector machines.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Background: Participation of children with ID it is argued must be understood in relation to the fit with the environment. Since caregivers are a vital factor within the close environment of a child with intellectual disability, their perceptions are unequivocally important.Aims: The main aim of this study is to describe the self-reported participation of children with ID and the perceptions of their primary caregivers. Both frequency of attendance and perceived importance of activity was measured with self-reported and proxy-reports.Methods & Procedures: A custom developed Picture my Participation (PmP) survey was utilised in an interview format with children with intellectual disability whilst their primary caregivers completed the survey independently.Results: Overall, the perceptions of children with intellectual disabilities and of primary caregivers showed similarities regarding attendance and activities considered important. On group level, both children and primary caregivers perceived the child to have a high level of attendance ofFormal learning in school, Family mealtime, Interacting with family and Celebrations. An overall poor agreement in perceived frequency of attendance was found. However, in child-primary cargiver-dyads poor agreement in perceived frequency of attendance was found.Conclusions: While primary caregivers and children's ratings of attendance and selection of the most important activities appeared somewhat similar, there was a noted difference, in that primary caregivers’ were uniform in their selection, whilst there was a diversity in the selection of activities amongst children.

General overview of the problems, needs and solutions in the Swedish urban building envelopes
- 2007

In: Improving The Quality Of Existing Urban Building Envelopes. - : IOS Press. - 9781586037352 ; , s. 131-139
-
Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In Sweden the most important issues referring to the Urban Building Envelopes from the1960s and 70s are today (2006): - to maintain and repair facades, roofs and installments for water and sewage - to save energy for heating and to transmit to renewable sources of energy - to get rid of materials and constructions that are hazardous for health - to improve accessibility in buildings and areas - to make the areas and buildings more attractive and safe Improvements of these conditions are on the agenda of national policies. In the building code it is also stated that the measures should be undertaken with respect and care for existing architectural and cultural values and characteristic features in buildings and environments. They shall be planned in participation with the residents.
