  1. 16. Spatial Spread of Organisms : Modeling ecological and epidemiological processes

    Författare :Tom Lindström; Uno Wennergren; Colleen Webb; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Spatial kernel; Spatially explicit modeling; Disease transmission; Animal movements; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the spread of organisms in both ecological and epidemiological contexts. In most of the studies presented, displacement is modeled with a spatial kernel function, which is characterized by scale and shape. These are measured by the net squared displacement (or kernel variance) and kurtosis, respectively. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Offline and Online Models for Learning Pairwise Relations in Data

    Författare :Fazeleh Sadat Hoseini; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mulit-Armed Bandit; Pairwise Relations; Performance Modeling; Motion Trajectory Clustering; Minimax Distance; Bottleneck Identification; Online Learning; Representation Learning; Memory Efficiency; Concurrent Programming; Thompson Sampling;

    Sammanfattning : Pairwise relations between data points are essential for numerous machine learning algorithms. Many representation learning methods consider pairwise relations to identify the latent features and patterns in the data. This thesis, investigates learning of pairwise relations from two different perspectives: offline learning and online learning. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Risk-based methods for reliability investments in electric power distribution systems

    Författare :Karin Alvehag; Lennart Söder; Kjølle Gerd; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Distribution system reliability; risk management; quality regulation design; customer interruption costs; weather modeling; Monte Carlo simulations; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Society relies more and more on a continuous supply of electricity. However, while underinvestments in reliability lead to an unacceptable number of power interruptions, overinvestments result in too high costs for society. LÄS MER

  4. 19. A Microdata Analysis Approach to Transport Infrastructure Maintenance

    Författare :Kristin Svenson; Lars Rönnegård; Karin Edvardsson; Nasir Gharaibeh; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transport Infrastructure Asset Management; Transport Infrastructure Maintenance; Statistical Modeling; Microdata Analysis; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys;

    Sammanfattning : Maintenance of transport infrastructure assets is widely advocated as the key in minimizing current and future costs of the transportation network. While effective maintenance decisions are often a result of engineering skills and practical knowledge, efficient decisions must also account for the net result over an asset's life-cycle. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Group-Sparse Regression : With Applications in Spectral Analysis and Audio Signal Processing

    Författare :Ted Kronvall; Statistical Signal Processing Group; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sparse regression; group-sparsity; statistical modeling; regularization; hyperparameter-selection; spectral analysis; audio signal processing; classification; localization; multi-pitch estimation; chroma; convex optimization; ADMM; cyclic coordinate descent; proximal gradient;

    Sammanfattning : This doctorate thesis focuses on sparse regression, a statistical modeling tool for selecting valuable predictors in underdetermined linear models. By imposing different constraints on the structure of the variable vector in the regression problem, one obtains estimates which have sparse supports, i.e. LÄS MER
