16. Hyperoxia avoidance and aggregation behavior in C. elegans
Sammanfattning : Living in the soil, C. elegans can move in three dimensions in search for food. To navigate, it partly uses oxygen levels as a description of its habitat. Oxygen tension may indicate presence of microbial food and location with respect to the surface, where oxygen is 21%. LÄS MER
17. IMPROVING DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTION WITH ADAPTIVE AND LOCAL SEARCH METHODS
Sammanfattning : Differential Evolution (DE) is a population-based algorithm that belongs to the Evolutionary algorithm family. During recent years, DE has become a popular algorithm in optimization due to its strength solving different types of optimization problems and due to its easy usage and implementation. LÄS MER
18. Employment Dynamics
Sammanfattning : The main focus of this thesis is the employment decisions of firms. The thesis consists of three self-contained but closely related essays, all enlightening employment dynamics in different ways. The thesis is mainly empirical but there are also some theoretical developments when existing theory is insufficient to explain the empirical findings. LÄS MER
19. Convergence Analysis and Improvements for Projection Algorithms and Splitting Methods
Sammanfattning : Non-smooth convex optimization problems occur in all fields of engineering. A common approach to solving this class of problems is proximal algorithms, or splitting methods. These first-order optimization algorithms are often simple, well suited to solve large-scale problems and have a low computational cost per iteration. LÄS MER
