1. Novel Statistical Methods in Quantitative Genetics : Modeling Genetic Variance for Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping and Genomic Evaluation
Sammanfattning : This thesis develops and evaluates statistical methods for different types of genetic analyses, including quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis, genome-wide association study (GWAS), and genomic evaluation. The main contribution of the thesis is to provide novel insights in modeling genetic variance, especially via random effects models. LÄS MER
2. Towards the Inclusion of Pelvis Population Variance in Human Body Models
Sammanfattning : With a future large-scale introduction of autonomous vehicles, the proportion of intersection crashes on the total number of motor vehicle crashes is expected to increase. The pelvis is frequently exposed to high loads in several of these impacts. LÄS MER
3. Semi-Markov Models for Insurance and Option Rewards
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents studies of semi-Markov models for insurance and option rewards. The thesis consists of the introduction and six papers. The introduction presents the results of the thesis in an informal way.In paper A, a general semi-Markov reward model is presented. LÄS MER
4. Robust Design Experimentation and Dispersion Effects
Sammanfattning : One of the most common methods in robust design methodology is design of experiments. This method makes it possible to identify settings of design factors that make products and production processes robust with respect to noise factors. LÄS MER
5. Development of Variance Component Methods for Genetic Dissection of Complex Traits
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents several developments on Variance component (VC) approach for Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) mapping. The first part consists of methodological improvements: a new fast and efficient method for estimating IBD matrices, have been developed. LÄS MER
