11. Feasible computation of generalized linear mixed models with application to credit risk modelling
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with developing and testing feasible computational procedures to facilitate the estimation of and carry out the prediction with the generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) with a scope of applying them to large data sets. The work of this thesis is motivated from an issue arising incredit risk modelling. LÄS MER
12. Prediction-driven approaches to discrete choicemodels with application to forecasting car typedemand
Sammanfattning : Models that can predict consumer choices are essential technical support fordecision makers in many contexts. The focus of this thesis is to address predictionproblems in discrete choice models and to develop methods to increase the predictivepower of these models with application to car type choice. LÄS MER
13. Towards application of explicit likelihoods in inference for Dark Matter Direct Detection
Sammanfattning : Despite the many empirical hints for the existence of Dark Matter in the Universe, Dark Matter has yet to be observed experimentally, be it directly through its scatterings in detectors, indirectly through its annihilation in the galaxy, or implicitly through its production and decay in particle colliders. Even though observations from astrophysics and cosmology placed constraints on the Dark Matter energy density and self-interaction cross section and with Standard Model particles, much about the nature of Dark Matter is still unknown, leaving much to the creativity of model builders.

14. Simulation of Combustion and Mixture Formation for Gasoline Direct Injection Engine Application
Sammanfattning : The development and introduction of new engine technologies are primarily motivated by the need to comply with increasingly stringent emissions legislation and to reduce fuel consumption. One of the most important of these new engine technologies is direct gasoline injection, which is considered to be an important and cost-effective measure to meet both targets. LÄS MER
15. Development and application of techniques for predicting and analysing phonon-derived materials properties
Sammanfattning : The thermodynamic properties of materials are of great interest for both scientists and engineers. A large contribution to many properties stems from the vibrational motion of the atoms in the material. An understanding of the dynamics of the vibrating atoms is therefore important for many other areas as well, including, e.g. LÄS MER
