1. Particle filters and Markov chains for learning of dynamical systems
Sammanfattning : Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods provide computational tools for systematic inference and learning in complex dynamical systems, such as nonlinear and non-Gaussian state-space models. This thesis builds upon several methodological advances within these classes of Monte Carlo methods. LÄS MER
2. Inverse Modeling of Cloud – Aerosol Interactions
Sammanfattning : The role of aerosols and clouds is one of the largest sources of uncertainty in understanding climate change. The primary scientific goal of this thesis is to improve the understanding of cloud-aerosol interactions by applying inverse modeling using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation. LÄS MER
3. Accelerating Monte Carlo methods for Bayesian inference in dynamical models
Sammanfattning : Making decisions and predictions from noisy observations are two important and challenging problems in many areas of society. Some examples of applications are recommendation systems for online shopping and streaming services, connecting genes with certain diseases and modelling climate change. LÄS MER
4. Simulation-based Inference : From Approximate Bayesian Computation and Particle Methods to Neural Density Estimation
Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis in computational statistics utilizes both Monte Carlo methods(approximate Bayesian computation and sequential Monte Carlo) and machine-learning methods (deep learning and normalizing flows) to develop novel algorithms for inference in implicit Bayesian models. Implicit models are those for which calculating the likelihood function is very challenging (and often impossible), but model simulation is feasible. LÄS MER
5. Recursive Bayesian Estimation : Navigation and Tracking Applications
Sammanfattning : Recursive estimation deals with the problem of extracting information about parameters, or states, of a dynamical system in real time, given noisy measurements of the system output. Recursive estimation plays a central role in many applications of signal processing, system identification and automatic control. LÄS MER
