1. Stress system function in abdominal obesity. The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and the sympathetic nervous system in middle-aged men
Sammanfattning : Background: There is a strong relationship between central (abdominal, visceral) obesity, impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and elevated blood pressure. These abnormalities are included in the term Metabolic Syndrome, and indicate an elevated risk for cardiovascular disease and diabetes type 2. LÄS MER
2. Efficient Methods for Direct Volume Rendering of Large Data Sets
Sammanfattning : Direct Volume Rendering (DVR) is a technique for creating images directly from a representation of a function defined over a three-dimensional domain. The technique has many application fields, such as scientific visualization and medical imaging. LÄS MER
3. Inverse system identification with applications in predistortion
Sammanfattning : Models are commonly used to simulate events and processes, and can be constructed from measured data using system identification. The common way is to model the system from input to output, but in this thesis we want to obtain the inverse of the system. LÄS MER
4. Particle filters and Markov chains for learning of dynamical systems
Sammanfattning : Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods provide computational tools for systematic inference and learning in complex dynamical systems, such as nonlinear and non-Gaussian state-space models. This thesis builds upon several methodological advances within these classes of Monte Carlo methods. LÄS MER
5. Rao-Blackwellised particle methods for inference and identification
Sammanfattning : We consider the two related problems of state inference in nonlinear dynamical systems and nonlinear system identification. More precisely, based on noisy observations from some (in general) nonlinear and/or non-Gaussian dynamical system, we seek to estimate the system state as well as possible unknown static parameters of the system.
