1. Algorithms for the Weighted Orthogonal Procrustes Problem and other Least Squares Problems
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we present algorithms for local and global minimization of some Procrustes type problems. Typically, these problems are about rotating and scaling a known set of data to fit another set with applications related to determination of rigid body movements, factor analysis and multidimensional scaling.

2. Development and Applications of Chemometric Methods for Spectral Deconvolution
Sammanfattning : Chemometric methods are very useful in analyzing complex mixtures. In this thesis two methods are presented that allow resolution of overlapping spectra from mixtures without knowledge of the pure component spectra. It also includes applications of these methods, in which the spectroscopic properties of the fluorescein system are characterized. LÄS MER
3. Towards Reliable, Stable and Fast Learning for Smart Home Activity Recognition
Sammanfattning : The current population age grows increasingly in industrialized societies and calls for more intelligent tools to monitor human activities. The aims of these intelligent tools are often to support senior people in their homes, to keep track of their daily activities, and to early detect potential health problems to facilitate a long and independent life.

4. Towards Fully Automatic Optimal Shape Modeling
Sammanfattning : Shape models and the automatic building of such models have proven over the last decades to be powerful tools in image segmentation and analysis. This thesis makes contributions to this field. The segmentation algorithm typically uses an objective function summing up contributions from each sample point. LÄS MER
5. 100 million years of shark macroevolution : A morphometric dive into tooth shape diversity
Sammanfattning : Few vertebrate clades exhibit the evolutionary longevity and versatility of sharks, which constitute nearly half of all current chondrichthyan biodiversity and represent an ecological diversity of mid-to-apex trophic-level predators in both marine and freshwater environments. The rich fossil record of shark teeth from Mesozoic and Cenozoic rocks also makes the group amenable to large-scale quantitative analyses. LÄS MER
