Uncontrolled over-fishing has been exemplified by the UN as a serious ecological challenge and a major threat to sustainable food supplies. Emerging trends within governing bodies point towards digital solutions by deploying CCTV-based video monitoring systems on a large scale. We conjecture that such systems are not feasible when reliant on satell...

Over the past decades, histopathological cancer diagnostics has become more complex, and the increasing number of biopsies is a challenge for most pathology laboratories. Thus, development of automatic methods for evaluation of histopathological cancer sections would be of value. In this study, we used 624 whole slide images (WSIs) of breast cancer...

Video monitoring and surveillance of commercial fisheries in world oceans has been proposed by the governing bodies of several nations as a response to crimes such as overfishing. Traditional video monitoring systems may not be suitable due to limitations in the offshore fishing environment, including low bandwidth, unstable satellite network conne...

Sustainable Commercial Fishing is the second challenge at the Nordic AI Meet following the successful MedAI, which had a focus on medical image segmentation and transparency in machine learning (ML)-based systems. FishAI focuses on a new domain, namely, commercial fishing and how to make it more sustainable with the help of machine learning. A rang...

The transaction-rate bottleneck built into popular proof-of-work-based cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin and Ethereum, leads to fee markets where transactions are included according to a first-price auction for block space. Many attempts have been made to adjust and predict the fee volatility, but even well-formed transactions sometimes experience une...

This document contains the table with adjusted p-values from the pairwise Tukey's range tests referenced in section 3.3 (see Table S1). Red colour indicate no significance (p-value ≥ 0.05), green colour indicate slight significance (p-value ∈ [0.001, 0.05], and light green colour indicate strong significance (p-value < 0.001). Pairwise comparisons...

Histopathological cancer diagnostics has become more complex, and the increasing number of biopsies is a challenge for most pathology laboratories. Thus, development of automatic methods for evaluation of histopathological cancer sections would be of value. In this study, we used 624 whole slide images (WSIs) of breast cancer from a Norwegian cohor...

In this paper, we present initial results from our distributed edge systems research in the domain of sustainable harvesting of common good resources in the Arctic Ocean. Specifically, we are developing a digital platform for real-time privacy-preserving sustainability management in the domain of commercial fishery surveillance operations. This is...

Fish crime is considered a global and serious problem for a healthy and sustainable development of one of mankind's important sources of food. Technological surveillance and control solutions are emerging as remedies to combat criminal activities, but such solutions might also come with impractical and negative side-effects and challenges. In this...
