Exciting action : investigating efficient exploration for learning musculoskeletal humanoid locomotion

Learning a locomotion controller for a musculoskeletal system is challenging due to over-actuation and high-dimensional action space. While many reinforcement learning methods attempt to address this issue, they often struggle to learn human-like gaits because of the complexity involved in engineering an effective reward function. In this paper, we demonstrate that adversarial imitation learning c

Economic and Environmental Optimization of Retrofitting Options for a Community Building : A Case Study from Förslöv-Grevie Parish, Sweden

The research evaluated retrofitting options for a threestory church community building in Grevie, Sweden, assessing the impacts on energy efficiency, life cycle cost, and environmental concerns. An energy model was generated in IDA ICE to simulate the building performance. Various improvements were tested in two separate retrofit package scenarios. They had the following measures in common: the ad

Researching collaborative civil defence in a complex world

Following dramatic changes in the international security environment, civil defence has reemerged as a central priority of governments, which requires collaboration among many stakeholders across sectors and levels of authority. Conditions for achieving such collaboration is a long-standing topic in different literatures, yet this is still a nascent topic in the study of civil defence and prepared

A decade of applied groundwater modelling in Sweden: bridging the gaps between academic advancements, industry, and higher education

Groundwater models can be powerful tools for managing groundwater resources, optimizing their use, mitigating risks, and provide decision-makers with forecasts of different management actions. To fulfill this purpose, it is generally advocated that a model should quantify the uncertainty associated with the outcomes it aims to assess, the rationale being that decisions made without an understandin

A Conceptual Framework and Recommendations for Open Data and Artifacts in Empirical Software Engineering

Open science aims to improve research accessibility, replicability, and consequently its quality. Empirical software engineering entails both data and artifacts, which may be shared more or less openly, to support transparency. However, the trade-offs involved in balancing the openness against integrity and secrecy concerns need methodological guidance. Aim. We aim to derive such advice, based on

Divide and Surrender: Exploiting Variable Division Instruction Timing in HQC Key Recovery Attacks

We uncover a critical side-channel vulnerability in the Hamming Quasi-Cyclic (HQC) round 4 optimized implementation arising due to the use of the modulo operator. In some cases, compilers optimize uses of the modulo operator with compiletime known divisors into constant-time Barrett reductions. However, this optimization is not guaranteed: for example, when a modulo operation is used in a loop the

Understanding Flash Drought Dynamics : An Approach for Enhancing Sustainability in Resource Management

Drought is a multifaceted phenomenon driven by both natural climate fluctuations and human activities. Unlike traditional, slow-developing droughts, flash droughts (FDs) emerge suddenly and intensify rapidly, posing significant challenges for natural resource management. The lack of effective tools to quantify FDs exacerbates stakeholders' concerns, particularly due to the risks they pose to water

POLLENOMICS: Decoding the Farming History of Europe Using a Bayesian Approach Combining Compositional Data with a Point Process

This study uniquely combines advanced continental-scale data fromtwo distinct sources: pollen-based land cover (PbLC) and ancient DNA(aDNA), developing a novel statistical model for spatiotemporal reconstructionsof past land use across Europe.The aDNA data serves as a proxy for human habitation, differentiatinganthropogenic and natural land cover from PbLC reconstruction. Thiswill be accomplished

Exploring barriers to effective organisational change using combined approach : Soft Systems Methodology (SSM) and ETHICS (a socio-technical design approach)

This paper aims to show how systems thinking can be used to investigate barriers to organisational change management. The case study described in this paper would be useful to managers who want to implement change in their own organisations. Soft Systems Methodology and ETHICS were used due to their flexible, responsive, and emergent nature. Also, soft systems methodology (SSM) and ETHICS (Effecti

Key Recovery Attacks on Approximate Homomorphic Encryption with Non-Worst-Case Noise Flooding Countermeasures

In this paper, we present novel key-recovery attacks on Approximate Homomorphic Encryption schemes, such as CKKS, when employing noise-flooding countermeasures based on non-worst-case noise estimation. Our attacks build upon and enhance the seminal work by Li and Micciancio at EUROCRYPT 2021. We demonstrate that relying on average-case noise estimation undermines noise-flooding countermeasures, ev

Vanilla Bayesian Optimization Performs Great in High Dimensions

High-dimensional problems have long been considered the Achilles' heel of Bayesian optimization. Spurred by the curse of dimensionality, a large collection of algorithms aim to make it more performant in this setting, commonly by imposing various simplifying assumptions on the objective. In this paper, we identify the degeneracies that make vanilla Bayesian optimization poorly suited to high-dimen

Professionellas bemötande av hjälpsökandes skam vid akut matunderstöd

Många människor är idag beroende av matunderstöd från församlingar och kommuner, bland annat på grund av hög inflation och höjda matkostnader. Efterfrågan på hjälp till det nödvändigaste för med sig frågor om värdighet och skam.

Optimal Control on Positive Cones

An optimal control problem on finite-dimensional positive cones is stated. Under a critical assumption on the cone, the corresponding Bellman equation is satisfied by a linear function, which can be computed by convex optimization. A separate theorem relates the assumption on the cone to the existence of minimal elements in certain subsets of the dual cone. Three special cases are derived as examp
