International Courts as Venues for Climate Activists: Conceptualizing the Effectiveness of International Climate Litigation Through Norm Development
Date: 2025-01-01
Creator: Ciara McMillan Tran
Access: Open access
- This thesis explores the emergence of international courts as venues for climate activists, and how climate litigation connects climate change-related damages to human rights law to broaden human rights norms related to the environment. Through three case studies of international climate cases, this project evaluates the effectiveness of international climate litigation through direct effectiveness, indirect effectiveness, and normative effectiveness. It argues that international climate cases are involved in the work of larger transnational advocacy networks who engage with issue framing that presents their causes to both a legal and a public audience. Framing is an ongoing, contested process that both activists and respondent states engage with, but the processes of norm development and socialization it prompts may ultimately work to advance the idea of climate and environment-related rights.

Hybrid Pixel-Superpixel Structures for Enhanced Image Segmentation:
Integrating Boundary Information in Deep Learning Models
Date: 2025-01-01
Creator: Jack Roberts
Access: Open access
- This project explores novel approaches to image segmentation using U-Net, leveraging superpixels to enhance accuracy. The first part investigates augmenting standard image inputs by encoding and integrating superpixel information, including an extension that reintroduces this information throughout the encoder. While results show that these methods can offer consistent improvements over the baseline, the gains are modest and suggest room for further optimization. The second part introduces a hybrid data structure, the Superpixel-Integrated Grid (SIGrid), which embeds superpixel boundary, shape, and color descriptors into a regular n × n grid. SIGrid enables more efficient training on smaller architectures while achieving noticeably higher segmentation accuracy, highlighting its potential as a lightweight and effective input representation.
