Are team personality and climate related to satisfaction and software quality? Aggregating results from a twice replicated experiment
(2015)Context Research into software engineering teams focuses on human and social team factors. Social psychology deals with the study of team formation and has found that personality factors and group processes such as team ... -
The Arts of Michael Moore and American Soft Power
(2009)Michael Moore is one of the most disputed authors and filmmakers in the United States. The purpose with this article is to try to shed some new insights and understandings of Moore's political views as they are represented ... -
Assessing Islamic State’s Commitment to Attacking the West
(2015)How much of a terrorist threat does the Islamic State (IS) pose to Western countries? This article looks at what IS has said and done with regard to attacks in the West. We examine IS statements and take stock of IS-related ... -
Assessment of intake of copper and lead by sheep grazing on a shooting range for small arms: a case study.
(2018-04-11)The Norwegian Armed Forces’ shooting ranges contain contamination by metals such as lead (Pb) and copper (Cu) and are often used as grazing pastures for livestock. To determine whether the sheep were at risk from grazing ... -
Assessment of the dispersion of Legionella-containing aerosols from a biological treatment plant
(2011)Legionella was detected in aeration ponds (biological treatment plant) at Borregaard Ind. Ltd., Norway, and in air samples harvested directly above these ponds. Since 2005, three outbreaks of legionellosis occurred within ... -
Assessment of the impact of wastewater and sewage sludge treatment methods on antimicrobial resistance. Scientific opinion of the Panel on Microbial Ecology of the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment
(2020-10-01)The request from NFSA and NEA: Antimicrobial agents and microorganisms are introduced to sewage systems by different human activities, from private homes, institutions such as schools and hospitals, office buildings, ... -
An ATR architecture for algorithm development and testing
(2013)A research platform with four cameras in the infrared and visible spectral domains is under development at the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI). The platform will be mounted on a high-speed jet aircraft and ... -
Augmented Lagrangian method for an Euler's elastica based segmentation model that promotes convex contours
(2017)In this paper, we propose an image segmentation model where an L1 variant of the Euler's elastica energy is used as boundary regularization. An interesting feature of this model lies in its preference for convex segmentation ... -
Augmenting Radar Doppler Resolution with Neural Networks
(2021-12-08)In order to generate high-resolution Doppler profiles a radar needs to emit a large number of pulses within a coherent processing interval (CPI). For a radar operating in demanding scenarios it can be difficult to sustain ... -
Automatic detection of marine gas seeps using an interferometric sidescan sonar
(2016)There is a significant need for reliable, cost-effective, and preferably automatic methods for detecting and monitoring marine gas seeps. Seeps at the seafloor may originate from natural sources including sediments releasing ... -
Automatic object recognition within point clouds in clustered or scattered scenes
(2020)We consider the problem of automatically locating, classifying and identifying an object within a point cloud that has been acquired by scanning a scene with a ladar. The recent work [E. Bae, Automatic scene understanding ... -
Automatic scene understanding and object identification in point clouds
(2019-10-10)A ladar can acquire a dense set of 3D coordinates of a scene, a so-called point cloud, in sub-second time from ranges of several kilometers. This paper presents algorithms for segmenting a point cloud into meaningful classes ... -
Automatic Security Classification by Machine Learning for Cross-Domain Information Exchange
(2015)Cross-domain information exchange is necessary to obtain information superiority in the military domain, and should be based on assigning appropriate security labels to the information objects. Most of the data found in a ... -
Automating Behaviour Tree Generation for Simulating Troop Movements
(2018-08-08)Computer generated forces are simulated units that are used in simulation based training and decision support in the military. These simulations are used to help trainees build a mental model of how different scenarios ... -
Automating Event-B invariant proofs by rippling and proof patching
(2019-01-02)The use of formal method techniques can contribute to the production of more reliable and dependable systems. However, a common bottleneck for industrial adoption of such techniques is the needs for interactive proofs. We ... -
Autonomous Optical Survey Based on Unsupervised Segmentation of Acoustic Backscatter
(2018)The application of acoustics to study the seabed have for decades provided industry and science with valuable information, and is still excels in terms of spatial coverage and detail. An acoustic response from the seabed ... -
Autonomous, Cooperative UAV Operations Using COTS Consumer Drones and Custom Ground Control Station
(2018)The benefits of using UA Vs for inexpensive aerial surveillance and survey have been widely accepted, and UAVs are routinely assisting humans performing ISR operations. While large countries and well-funded military ... -
Autophagic activity in BC3H1 cells exposed to yessotoxin
(2016)The marine toxin yessotoxin (YTX) can induce programmed cell death through both caspase-dependent and -independent pathways in various cellular systems. It appears to stimulate different forms of cellular stress causing ... -
Avoidance responses of minke whales to 1?4 kHz naval sonar
(2017)Minke whales are difficult to study and little information exists regarding their responses to anthropogenic sound. This study pools data from behavioural response studies off California and Norway. Data are derived from ...
