"Det var inte mitt val" - en narrativ studie om upplevelser av elektrokonvulsiv terapi (ECT)

Moberg, Jennie January 2013 (has links)
This study aims to highlight patients´ experiences about and thoughts of side effects fromelectroconvulsive therapy (ECT), a therapeutic method commonly used when having severedepressions. The framing of questions were how the respondents of this study describe theirlife before, during and after ECT-treatment, how the treatment has affected their daily life andhow these experiences may contribute to the awareness of power in professional relations.The study is based on three semi-structured narrative interviews and the main result showedthat, according to my interpretation, ECT as a treatment obliterated memories, quality of lifeand daily structure for all participants. Unfortunately they have all become subjects ofpsychiatric power and have faced considerable difficulty in getting professional recognitionaccording to their severe memory issues. The respondents have lost the ability to relate totheir past which clearly makes them struggle in their present context. A point in commonamong them is that neither of them wanted ECT but, because of the lack of communicationbetween them as patients and the health care in general, they all ended up getting it.

Continual Learning and Biomedical Image Data : Attempting to sequentially learn medical imaging datasets using continual learning approaches / Kontinuerligt lärande och Biomedicinsk bilddata : Försöker att sekventiellt lära sig medicinska bilddata genom att använda metoder för kontinuerligt lärande

Soselia, Davit January 2022 (has links)
While deep learning has proved to be useful in a large variety of tasks, a limitation remains of needing all classes and samples to be present at the training stage in supervised problems. This is a major issue in the field of biomedical imaging since keeping samples in the training sets consistently is often a liability. Furthermore, this issue prevents the simple updating of older models with only the new data when it is introduced, and prevents collaboration between companies. In this work, we examine an array of Continual Learning approaches to try to improve upon the baseline of the naive finetuning approach when retraining on new tasks, and achieve accuracy levels similar to the ones seen when all the data is available at the same time. Continual learning approaches with which we attempt to mitigate the problem are EWC, UCB, EWC Online, SI, MAS, CN-DPM. We explore some complex scenarios with varied classes being included in the tasks, as well as close to ideal scenarios where the sample size is balanced among the tasks. Overall, we focus on X-ray images, since they encompass a large variety of diseases, with new diseases requiring retraining. In the preferred setting, where classes are relatively balanced, we get an accuracy of 63.30 versus a baseline of 53.92 and the target score of 66.83. For the continued training on the same classes, we get an accuracy of 35.52 versus a baseline of 27.73. We also examine whether learning rate adjustments at task level improve accuracy, with some improvements for EWC Online. The preliminary results indicate that CL approaches such as EWC Online and SI could be integrated into radiography data learning pipelines to reduce catastrophic forgetting in situations where some level of sequential training ability justifies the significant computational overhead. / Även om djupinlärning har visat sig vara användbart i en mängd olika uppgifter, kvarstår en begränsning av att behöva alla klasser och prover som finns på utbildningsstadiet i övervakade problem. Detta är en viktig fråga inom området biomedicinsk avbildning eftersom det ofta är en belastning att hålla prover i träningsuppsättningarna. Dessutom förhindrar det här problemet enkel uppdatering av äldre modeller med endast nya data när de introduceras och förhindrar samarbete mellan företag. I det här arbetet undersöker vi en rad kontinuerliga inlärningsmetoder för att försöka förbättra baslinjen för den naiva finjusteringsmetoden vid omskolning på nya uppgifter och närma sig noggrannhetsnivåer som de som ses när alla data är tillgängliga samtidigt. Kontinuerliga inlärningsmetoder som vi försöker mildra problemet med inkluderar bland annat EWC, UCB, EWC Online, SI. Vi utforskar några komplexa scenarier med olika klasser som ingår i uppgifterna, samt nära idealiska scenarier där exempelstorleken balanseras mellan uppgifterna. Sammantaget fokuserar vi på röntgenbilder, eftersom de omfattar ett stort antal sjukdomar, med nya sjukdomar som kräver omskolning. I den föredragna inställningen får vi en noggrannhet på 63,30 jämfört med en baslinje på 53,92 och målpoängen på 66,83. Medan vi för den utökade träningen på samma klasser får en noggrannhet på 35,52 jämfört med en baslinje på 27,73. Vi undersöker också om justeringar av inlärningsfrekvensen på uppgiftsnivå förbättrar noggrannheten, med vissa förbättringar för EWC Online. De preliminära resultaten tyder på att CL-metoder som EWC Online och SI kan integreras i rörledningar för röntgendatainlärning för att minska katastrofal glömska i situationer där en viss nivå av sekventiell utbildningsförmåga motiverar den betydande beräkningskostnaden.

En kropp av spöken : A Body of Ghosts

Verseau, Victoria January 2020 (has links)
Based on a series of attempts to capture, focus and preserve memories and what has been lost, A Body of Ghosts evokes what moves in the destructive, towards oblivion or forgetfulness. Before I forget, I want to tell you about the loss of a close friend and about a time that changed us fundamentally. I want you to see the struggles that take place on the periphery of society. I want to talk about the transition, both physical and invisible, from boy to woman. This work is a construction containing our stories, Meril’s and mine, wherein memories and collected objects meet and reconfigure, the everyday and the suggestive intertwine. I find myself in the gap between dream and reality, a process that has led me to an obscure place where a distortion occurs; a place where time uncovers fragments from then and now. Emotions, situations and events have been loaded into these objects: an H&M jacket I wore when I got dumped at the age of 24, and after which I never felt the same kind of youthful, burning love. Casts of a vaginal dilator, at 5, 6, 7, 8, inches, to be used after gender reassignment surgery and forever more.  Thus objects undergo transitions into sculptures. Sculptures become symbols of crucial memories, repetitions and imitations of the original. Time has been left in the material, something non-physical placed in the physical.  My life mirrors Meril, but something remains out of reach. Screens of latex and metal shield my ambivalence towards this revelation of self. The camera inhibiting the act of remembering, keeping me from a long-lost friend. Photosensitive, only to be kept in the dark. Here, the works are partially concealed; the visitor must enter behind architectural partitions or into a hidden room in order to receive the whole story. The visitor is a voyeur outside the work but once inside it, becomes the observed. Behind each layer is a new fragment of the whole and thus the story unfolds. A Body of Ghosts in the void.
