Background Until now, no method is available for automatic extraction of indicators of image quality and view standardization from echocardiographic recordings. Thus, description of data quality has been indirect, often by description of operators experience and the methodology used. Peak systolic...

We are delighted to present the annual issue of the Norwegian Sports and Exercise Medicine Society in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. This year, we proudly embrace the slogan of the Oslo Sports Trauma Research Center’s (OSTRC) 25th anniversary conference: ‘25 Years of Protecting Athlete...

Background The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated mental health challenges among adolescents, particularly among those with limited socioeconomic resources. It is unclear whether this trend is consistent across various features of adolescents’ residential area. We compare trends in socioeconomic...

Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS)-a cluster of conditions including dysglycemia, abdominal obesity, dyslipidemia, and hypertension-raises the risk of cardiovascular disease and other systemic complications. Emerging evidence suggests it may also be associated with dental caries, possibly due to...

Ensuring the legal compliance of data pipelines with evolving EU legislation, such as the AI Act, presents a significant challenge due to the complexity of both technical infrastructures and regulatory texts. This paper explores the potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) to support automated...

We introduce a data-driven method for learning the equations of motion of mechanical systems directly from position measurements, without requiring access to velocity data. This is particularly relevant in system identification tasks where only positional information is available, such as motion...

Machinery failure prognostic, aiming to predict remaining useful life (RUL) of equipment by a series of measures, is rarely applied in the mineral processing industry. The commonly used algorithms ignore the spatial heterogeneity and temporal characteristics of equipment degradation, affecting the...

We develop a general framework for numerically solving differential equations while preserving invariants. As in standard projection methods, we project an arbitrary base integrator onto an invariant-preserving manifold, however, our method exploits homogeneous symmetries to evaluate the projection...

The Blue Economy is undergoing a transformative shift driven by advancements in green shipping, automation, and digitalization. As maritime operations become increasingly complex, the demand for high-capacity, low-latency, and reliable communication has intensified. To address these challenges, we...

We report experiments in a long tank showing that transverse Benjamin–Feir instability of Stokes waves can lead to a significant energy transfer into oscillations across the tank. We observe frequency downshift in the long-term evolution of Stokes waves essentially when significant energy is...

This study investigates the impact of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems on electricity consumption and grid dynamics in Norwegian households. Using hourly smart meter data from 81 households, the study compares two years before and after PV system installation to quantify changes in load profiles...

I denne veilederen beskriver vi hva som må vurderes ved prosjektering av vanntåke som automatisk brannslokkesystem i bygninger, og hvordan det kan gjøres. Veilederen behandler både det tekniske anlegget og brannsikkerheten i bygningen. Videre beskriver vi kriterier for anleggets egenskaper og...

The paper describes a model to predict and analyze the time-dependent closure of a borehole drilled in a soft rock subjected to an initial isotropic stress, and the build-up of stress on a rigid casing after contact with the deforming rock. The rock behaves as a viscoplastic material characterized...

Norsk industri importerer store mengder kull fra Sør-Amerika, samtidig som norsk kull blir liggende urørt på Svalbard. Kortere transportavstand og bedre kvalitet trekkes frem som argumenter for å etablere ny gruvedrift på Svalbard. – Å bruke kull fra Svalbard gir et langt mindre fotavtrykk for...

The disease burden from Legionella spp. infections has been increasing in many industrialized countries and, despite decades of scientific advances, ranks amongst the highest for waterborne diseases. We review here several key research areas from a multidisciplinary perspective and list critical...

Deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) on edge devices presents significant challenges due to computational constraints, memory limitations, inference speed, and energy consumption. Model quantization has emerged as a key technique to enable efficient LLM inference by reducing model size and...
