11. Exploiting conjugacy in state-space models with sequential Monte Carlo
Sammanfattning : Many processes we encounter in our daily lives are dynamical systems that can be described mathematically using state-space models. Exact inference of both states and parameters in these models is, in general, intractable. LÄS MER
12. On Degree Variance in Random Graphs
Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with degree moments and degree variance in random graphs. The degree of vertex i in a graph is the number of edges incident to vertex i.In the first paper, degree moments and functions of degree moments are investigated for three random graph models.

13. Extending the reach of uncertainty quantification in nuclear theory
Sammanfattning : The theory of the strong interaction—quantum chromodynamics (QCD)—is unsuited to practical calculations of nuclear observables and approximate models for nuclear interaction potentials are required. In contrast to phenomenological models, chiral effective field theories (χEFTs) of QCD grant a handle on the theoretical uncertainty arising from the truncation of the chiral expansion. LÄS MER
14. Essays on nonlinear time series modelling och hypothesis testing
Sammanfattning : There seems to be a common understanding nowadays that the economy is nonlinear. Economic theory suggests features that can not be incorporated into linear frameworks, and over the decades a solid body of empirical evidence of nonlinearities in economic time series has been gathered.

15. Stochastic model updating and model selection with application to structural dynamics
Sammanfattning : Uncertainty induced by our incomplete state of knowledge about engineering systems and their surrounding environment give rise to challenging problems in the process of building predictive models for the system behavior. One such challenge is the model selection problem, which arises due to the existence of invariably multiple candidate models with different mathematical forms to represent the system behavior, and so there is a need to assess their plausibility based on experimental data.
