Multi-ancestry genome-wide association analyses improve resolution of genes and pathways influencing lung function and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease risk
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Lung-function impairment underlies chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and predicts mortality. In the largest multi-ancestry genome-wide association meta-analysis of lung function to date, comprising 580,869 ... -
Multi-Armed Bandit Networks: Exploring Online Learning with Networks
(Master thesis, 2018-06-26)Classical Multi-Armed Bandit solutions often assumes independent arms as a simplification of the problem. This has shown great results in many different fields of practice, but could in some cases, presumably leave untapped ... -
A multi-dating approach to age-modelling long continental records: The 135 ka El Cañizar de Villarquemado sequence (NE Spain)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)We present a multidisciplinary dating approach - including radiocarbon, Uranium/Thorium series (U/Th), paleomagnetism, single-grain optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), polymineral fine-grain infrared stimulated ... -
A multi-decadal record of oceanographic changes of the past ~165 years (1850-2015 AD) from Northwest of Iceland
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Extending oceanographic data beyond the instrumental period is highly needed to better characterize and understand multi-decadal to centennial natural ocean variability. Here, a stable isotope record at unprecedented ... -
Multi-decadal warming of Atlantic water and associated decline of dissolved oxygen in a deep fjord
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-11)Previous studies have shown decline in dissolved oxygen of the ocean basins. A hypothesis for this development is that ocean warming through increased stratification has caused reduced ventilation of the interior ocean. ... -
A multi-decade record of high-quality fCO2 data in version 3 of the Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (SOCAT)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-09-15)The Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (SOCAT) is a synthesis of quality-controlled fCO2 (fugacity of carbon dioxide) values for the global surface oceans and coastal seas with regular updates. Version 3 of SOCAT has 14.7 million ... -
Multi-ethnic Involvement? Production and Use of Soapstone in Northern Norway
(UBAS - University of Bergen Archaeological Series, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2017-08)The northern Norwegian soapstone quarries display small, mainly rectangular extractions possibly for the production of smaller types of artifact or a kind of blank or rough out for various objects. In addition, some soapstone ... -
Multi-frequency acoustic discrimination between gas bubble plumes and biological targets in the ocean
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-06-18)Seabed-originating gas bubble seeps have been observed worldwide from a variety of sources (e.g. Hovland and Judd, 1988) and are most frequently composed of methane and carbon dioxide. Some seabed gas leaks, such as ... -
Multi-GPU Rendering with Vulkan API
(Master thesis, 2018-08-21)Vulkan API provides a low level interface to modern Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). With this thesis, we demonstrate how to use Vulkan to send commands explicitly to separate GPUs for implementing platform- and vendor ... -
Multi-Instrument Observations of the Evolution of Polar Cap Patches Associated With Flow Shears and Particle Precipitation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Simultaneous observations from Defense Meteorological Satellite Program, Swarm, Resolute Bay all-sky imagers, GPS Total Electron Content and Super Dual Auroral Radar Network, are used to investigate the evolution and key ... -
A multi-layer perceptron network for perfusion parameter estimation in DCE-MRI studies of the healthy kidney
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is an imaging technique which helps in visualizing and quantifying perfusion—one of the most important indicators of an organ’s state. This paper ... -
Multi-Level Communication of Human Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells via Tunneling Nanotubes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-03-22)Background: Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) may offer a very specific and effective way of intercellular communication. Here we investigated TNTs in the human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell line ARPE-19. Morphology of ... -
Multi-level governance in a “Europe with the regions”.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-08)The concept of multilevel governance was introduced to reveal the impact of regions on European Union (EU) policy making in Brussels. In this contribution, I show that multilevel governance also exposes regional involvement ... -
Multi-list Food Recommender Systems for Healthier Choices
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)Recipe websites are a popular destination for home cooks to discover new recipes and find what to cook. However, the most popular way of recommending recipes to users is trough similarity and popularity-based recommendations, ... -
Multi-List Recommendations for Personalizing Streaming Content
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)The decision behind choosing a recommender system that yields accurate recommendations yet allows users to explore more content has been a topic of research in the last decades. This work attempts to find a recommender ... -
Multi-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis of the fish-pathogenic bacterium Yersinia ruckeri by multiplex PCR and capillary electrophoresis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-06-17)Yersinia ruckeri is an important pathogen of farmed salmonids worldwide, but simple tools suitable for epizootiological investigations (infection tracing, etc.) of this bacterium have been lacking. A Multi-Locus Variable-number ... -
