1. 1. Univariate and Multivariate Surveillance of Outbreaks

   Författare :Linus Schiöler; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; change-points; expected delay; exponential family; false alarms; generalised likelihood; inference principles; influenza; MEWMA; monitoring; multivariate; ordered regression; performance metrics; outbreak; predictive value; subjective judgment; spatial; statistical models; surveillance; tularemia;

   Sammanfattning : In many areas there is a need to monitor observations in order to detect changes in the underlying processes as quickly as possible. The theory of statistical surveillance provides the possibility of making optimal decisions about whether a change has occurred or not based on the data available at the time of the decision.

4. 3. Self-Normalized Sums and Directional Conclusions

   Författare :Fredrik Jonsson; Allan Gut; Josef Steinebach; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Self-normalized sums; heavy-tailedness; Student s t-statistic; distributional symmetry; exponential tilting; directional conclusions; reversal rates; multiple statistical inference; the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of a summary and five papers, dealing with self-normalized sums of independent, identically distributed random variables, and three-decision procedures for directional conclusions. In Paper I, we investigate a general set-up for Student's t-statistic. LÄS MER

5. 4. On Bayesian graphical model determination

   Författare :Jukka Corander; Carlo Berzuini; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian inference; Entropy; Exponential models; Graphical models; Logarithmic utility; Statistics; Statistik; statistik; Statistics;

   Sammanfattning : A graphical model specifies a graph representation of the independence structure of a multivariate distribution, where nodes represent variables and edges association between variables.This thesis introduces methodology for determination of graphical models for multivariate distributions within the exponential family.

7. 5. Essays on Bayesian Inference for Social Networks

   Författare :Johan Koskinen; Ove Frank; Philippa Pattison; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian inference; social network analysis; Markov chain Monte Carlo; exponential random graphs; cognitive social structures; longitudinal social networks.; Statistics; Statistik;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis presents Bayesian solutions to inference problems for three types of social network data structures: a single observation of a social network, repeated observations on the same social network, and repeated observations on a social network developing through time.A social network is conceived as being a structure consisting of actors and their social interaction with each other.
