  1. 11. Bayesian Inference for Microwave Diagnostics at Joint European Torus

    Författare :Stefan Schmuck; Per Brunsell; Thomas Jonsson; Jakob Svensson; Laurie Porte; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ECE; Bayesian; Fourier transform; spectroscopy; joint inference; length-scale; Gaussian process; microwave diagnostic; JET; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The major goal of this thesis is to perform Bayesian inference jointly for electron kinetic profiles, a toroidal magnetic field correction, diagnostic sensitivities, and wall reflection properties given noisy measurements of four microwave diagnostics at the tokamak JET. Besides the measurements, this kind of inference considers prior knowledge, like profile length-scales, to update objectively the information about the physics parameters. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Option Pricing and Bayesian Learning

    Författare :Ola Jönsson; Nationalekonomiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; ekonomisk politik; ekonomiska system; ekonomisk teori; ekonometri; Bayesian learning; Volatility smile; Economics; Polya urn model; economic theory; econometrics; economic systems; Nationalekonomi; economic policy; Finansiering; Financial science;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three chapters devoted to both empirical and theoretical aspects of option pricing. The first chapter investigates the market for European options on the Swedish OMX index using daily data for the period 1993-2000. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Bayesian Modeling of Directional Data with Acoustic and Other Applications

    Författare :Jalil Taghia; Arne Leijon; W. Bastiaan Kleijn; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Directional statistics; directional distributions; axial distributions; von Mises-Fisher distribution; complex Watson distribution; complex Bingham distribution; Bayesian inference; probabilistic modeling; variational inference; two-dimensional hidden Markov models; Markov chain; blind source separation; frequency domain BSS; underdetermined BSS; online BSS; Bayesian recursive; gene expression data; gene-microarray data; line spectral frequency; speaker identification. ii;

    Sammanfattning : A direction is defined here as a multi-dimensional unit vector. Such unitvectors form directional data. Closely related to directional data are axialdata for which each direction is equivalent to the opposite direction.Directional data and axial data arise in various fields of science. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Bayesian Modeling of Conditional Densities

    Författare :Feng Li; Mattias Villani; Sylvia Frühwirth-Schnatter; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian inference; Density estimation; smooth mixtures; surface regression; copulas; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Statistics; statistik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis develops models and associated Bayesian inference methods for flexible univariate and multivariate conditional density estimation. The models are flexible in the sense that they can capture widely differing shapes of the data. The estimation methods are specifically designed to achieve flexibility while still avoiding overfitting. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Babblers, Biogeography and Bayesian Reasoning

    Författare :Magnus Gelang; Per Ericson; Per Alström; Isabel Sanmartín Bastida; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Africa; Asia; Bayesian inference; biogeography; Cettidae; dispersal; extinction; Middle East; persistence; Sylvioidea; Sylviidae; Timaliidae; vicariance; Systematic Zoology; zoologisk systematik och evolutionsforskning;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, I try to proceed one step further towards an understanding of the biogeographic processes forming the distribution patterns of organisms that we see today. Babblers and warblers are diverse groups of passerines that are phylogenetically intermixed with other groups in the superfamily Sylvioidea. LÄS MER
