6. Electoral Incentives and Information Content in Macroeconomic Forecasts
Sammanfattning : Essay I (with Davide Cipullo): This essay introduces macroeconomic forecasters as new political agents and suggests that they use their forecasts to influence voting outcomes. The essay develops a probabilistic voting model in which voters do not have complete information about the future economy and rely on professional forecasters when forming beliefs. LÄS MER
7. Exploring Cognitive Spare Capacity : Executive Processing of Degraded Speech
Sammanfattning : Cognitive resources, specifically working memory capacity are used for listening to speech, especially in noise. Cognitive resources are limited, and if listeners allocate a greater share of these resources to recovering the input signal in noise, fewer resources are available for interpreting and encoding its linguistic content.

8. Experimental Design and Updating of Finite Element Models
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with two partly related topics: model updating and actuator/sensor placement concerning finite element (FE) models of large, flexible mechanical structures.The importance of accurate dynamical FE models of mechanical structures in, e.g., aviation/aerospace applications are steadily increasing.

9. Assessing cognitive spare capacity as a measure of listening effort using the Auditory Inference Span Test
Sammanfattning : Hearing loss has a negative effect on the daily life of 10-15% of the world’s population. One of the most common ways to treat a hearing loss is to fit hearing aids which increases audibility by providing amplification. Hearing aids thus improve speech reception in quiet, but listening in noise is nevertheless often difficult and stressful. LÄS MER
10. On the Fundamentals of Analysis and Detection of Computer Misuse
Sammanfattning : Most computerized information systems we use in our everyday lives provide very little protection against hostile manipulation. At the same time, there is a rapidly increasing dependence on services provided by these computer systems and networks, and security is thus not only an interesting and challenging research discipline but has indeed developed into a critical issue for society.
