1. Bridges with Random Length and Pinning Point for Modelling the Financial Information
Sammanfattning : The impact of the information concerning an event of interest occurring at a future random time is the main topic of this work. The event can massively influence financial markets and the problem of modelling the information on the time at which it occurs is of crucial importance in financial modelling. LÄS MER
2. Decision Making in Fire Risk Management
Sammanfattning : Various normative decision theories are discussed in the context of fire risk management. A method suitable for practical decision making in respect to fire safety investments is presented and exemplified. The method involves the use of second-order probabilities to represent uncertainty regarding probability values. LÄS MER
3. Bayesian learning of structured dynamical systems
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we propose some Bayesian approaches to the identificationof structured dynamical systems. In particular, we consider block-orientedmodels in which a complex system is built starting from simple linear andnonlinear building blocks. LÄS MER
4. Analytical Approximations for Bayesian Inference
Sammanfattning : Bayesian inference is a statistical inference technique in which Bayes’ theorem is used to update the probability distribution of a random variable using observations. Except for few simple cases, expression of such probability distributions using compact analytical expressions is infeasible. LÄS MER
5. Structural Health Monitoring of Bridges : Model-free damage detection method using Machine Learning
Sammanfattning : This is probably the most appropriate time for the development of robust and reliable structural damage detection systems as aging civil engineering structures, such as bridges, are being used past their life expectancy and beyond their original design loads. Often, when a significant damage to the structure is discovered, the deterioration has already progressed far and required repair is substantial. LÄS MER
