Approaches to pollen taxonomic harmonisation in Quaternary palynology
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Pollen taxonomic harmonisation involves the standardisation of the nomenclature of pollen and fern spores with similar morphotypes at the determination level that is common to all grains or spores with that morphotype ... -
Approaches to Social Investment and Their Implications for Poverty in Sweden and the European Union
(Global Challenges - Working Paper Series, Working paper, 2017-09-11)The concept of social investment has gained increasing traction among European Union policymakers, as a strategy to reconcile the goals of employment, growth, and social inclusion. In recent years, however, scholars have ... -
Approaches to work and education over the life course. A two-cohort study of men skilled in male-dominated manual occupations in Norway
(Doctoral thesis, 2013-04-12)This thesis explores the approaches to work and education of men skilled in maledominated manual occupations in Norway. Its focus is on how their approaches to work and education have 1) changed over historical time and ... -
Approaching a diagnostic point-of-care test for pediatric tuberculosis through evaluation of immune biomarkers across the clinical disease spectrum
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01-04)The World Health Organization (WHO) calls for an accurate, rapid, and simple point-of-care (POC) test for the diagnosis of pediatric tuberculosis (TB) in order to make progress “Towards Zero Deaths”. Whereas the sensitivity ... -
Approaching the Arctic: the occurrence of Parin’s spinyfin Diretmichthys parini (Beryciformes: Diretmidae) in the Nordic Seas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Two adult specimens of the tropical to subtropical fish species Diretmichthys parini are reported from the North Sea and the northern Norwegian Sea, respectively. Both were accidentally caught as bycatch by commercial ... -
Approaching the boundary problem: Self-determination, inclusion, and the unpuzzling of transboundary conflicts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In recent decades, decisionmakers have increasingly faced conflicts juxtaposing demands for self-determination and inclusion. Political theorists term this juxtaposition “the boundary problem.” They have offered normative ... -

Appropriate waist circumference cut points for identifying insulin resistance in black youth: a cross sectional analysis of the 1986 Jamaica birth cohort
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-12-07)Background While the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) has ethnic specific waist circumference (WC) cut-points for the metabolic syndrome for Asian populations it is not known whether the cut-points for black populations ... -
The appropriation of a religion: The case of Zoroastrianism in contemporary Russia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-10-10)This paper distinguishes between the (ontological) creation, (historical) emergence and (legal) ‘making’ of religion. Many religions claim plausibility by invoking long chains of (invented) traditions, while some post-modern ... -
An approximate hybrid method for modeling of electromagnetic scattering from an underground target
(Doctoral thesis, 2010-12-09)The detection of a potential petroleum reservoir is achieved through inversion of electromagnetic data acquired in sea floor receivers. Inversion of electromagnetic data requires a number of repeated solves of the ... -
Approximating Acyclicity Parameters of Sparse Hypergraphs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009)The notions of hypertree width and generalized hypertree width were introduced by Gottlob, Leone, and Scarcello (PODS'99, PODS'01) in order to extend the concept of hypergraph acyclicity. These notions were further generalized ... -

Approximating Long Cycle Above Dirac's Guarantee
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Parameterization above (or below) a guarantee is a successful concept in parameterized algorithms. The idea is that many computational problems admit "natural" guarantees bringing to algorithmic questions whether a better ... -
Approximation algorithms in combinatorial scientific computing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)We survey recent work on approximation algorithms for computing degreeconstrained subgraphs in graphs and their applications in combinatorial scientific computing. The problems we consider include maximization versions of ... -
Approximation in (poly-) logarithmic space
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We develop new approximation algorithms for classical graph and set problems in the RAM model under space constraints. As one of our main results, we devise an algorithm for d–Hitting Set that runs in time nO(d2+(d/ε)), ... -
Apps as Companions: How Quantified Self Apps Become Our Audience and Our Companions
(Palgrave Pivot, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2018)Self-tracking apps gather intimate information about our daily lives. Sometimes, they take the role of a confidante, an anthropomorphised companion we can trust. Humans have long confided in non-human companions, such as ... -
