Common trends in recruitment dynamics of north-east Atlantic fish stocks and their links to environment, ecology and management
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-13)Recruitment dynamics are challenging to assess or predict because of the many underlying drivers that vary in their relevance over time and space. Stock size, demographic and trait composition, condition and distribution ... -
A common-garden experiment to quantify evolutionary processes in copepods: the case of emamectin benzoate resistance in the parasitic sea louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-05-19)Background: The development of pesticide resistance represents a global challenge to food production. Specifically for the Atlantic salmon aquaculture industry, parasitic sea lice and their developing resistance to delousing ... -
Communicating Electroconvulsive Therapy Information via Web-based Narrative Medical Visualization
(Master thesis, 2022-10-13)The essence of this project is to create an accessible, comprehensive and engaging information resource about electroconvulsive therapy in the form of a scroll-based website. Frequently abbreviated to just ECT, electroconvulsive ... -
Communication in Turn Based Multiplayer Games Using Deep Reinforcement Learning
(Master thesis, 2022-09-01)This work investigates communication in cooperative settings of multi-agent reinforcement learning. We look at what conditions make it easier or harder for meaningful communication to arise between the agents. This includes ... -
Community Composition and Habitat Characterization of a Rock Sponge Aggregation (Porifera, Corallistidae) in the Cantabrian Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Deep-sea sponge-dominated communities are complex habitats considered hotspots of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. They are classified as Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem and are listed as threatened or declining as a ... -
Community composition, population structure and phylogeny of coastal sympagic meiofauna in eastern Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2019-06-19)Coastal sea ice communities constitute a highly vulnerable yet little investigated part of the Arctic ecosystem. A better understanding of the Arctic sea ice ecosystem will aid in more accurate predictions of the ecological ... -
Community curation of bioinformatics software and data resources
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The corpus of bioinformatics resources is huge and expanding rapidly, presenting life scientists with a growing challenge in selecting tools that fit the desired purpose. To address this, the European Infrastructure for ... -
Community Detection in Complex Networks
(Master thesis, 2017-06-20) -
Community Detection in Social Networks
(Master thesis, 2015-05-01)Social networks usually display a hierarchy of communities and it is the task of community detection algorithms to detect these communities and preferably also their hierarchical relationships. One common class of such ... -
Community Detection on the GPU
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2017)We present and evaluate a new GPU algorithm based on the Louvain method for community detection. Our algorithm is the first for this problem that parallelizes the access to individual edges. In this way we can fine tune ... -
A community-based geological reconstruction of Antarctic Ice Sheet deglaciation since the Last Glacial Maximum
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-09-15)A robust understanding of Antarctic Ice Sheet deglacial history since the Last Glacial Maximum is important in order to constrain ice sheet and glacial-isostatic adjustment models, and to explore the forcing mechanisms ... -
Community-driven development for computational biology at Sprints, Hackathons and Codefests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-11-27)Background: Computational biology comprises a wide range of technologies and approaches. Multiple technologies can be combined to create more powerful workflows if the individuals contributing the data or providing tools ... -

Comparative analysis defines a broader FMRFamide-gated sodium channel family and determinants of neuropeptide sensitivity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)FMRFamide (Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-amide, FMRFa) and similar neuropeptides are important physiological modulators in most invertebrates, but the molecular basis of FMRFa activity at its receptors is unknown. We therefore sought ... -
Comparative analysis of acoel embryonic development
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-10-02)Acoels are bilaterally symmetric aquatic worms, that lack a through gut and have a single body opening to their digestive syncytium. Although they were initially placed within spiralians, because of their morphological ... -
A Comparative Analysis of Feature Selection Methods for Biomarker Discovery in Study of Toxicant-Treated Atlantic Cod (Gadus Morhua) Liver
(Communications in Computer and Information Science; 1056, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2019)Univariate and multivariate feature selection methods can be used for biomarker discovery in analysis of toxicant exposure. Among the univariate methods, differential expression analysis (DEA) is often applied for its ... -
Comparative biology and population mixing among local, coastal and offshore Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) in the North Sea, Skagerrak, Kattegat and western Baltic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-10-30)The population structure of Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) from 13 local, coastal and offshore areas of the North Sea, Skagerrak, Kattegat and western Baltic (northeast Atlantic) was studied using biological and ... -
Comparative development of spiralian larvae
(Doctoral thesis, 2016-03-04)Bryozoans and brachiopods are sessile, mostly marine animals, that use an elegant crown of tentacles for filter-feeding. They are related to molluscs, segmented worms and other animals in a outstandingly diverse group of ... -
Comparative feeding ecology of roundnose grenadier (Coryphaenoides rupestris) in Norwegian fjords
(Master thesis, 2017-06-16)In the ocean, energy is transferred from the productive primary producers at the surface, down to the demersal fish fauna at the sea floor. When moving away from the surface layer, there is a decline in food availability, ...
