1. 1. Information, Security, Privacy, and Anonymity : Definitional and Conceptual Issues

   Författare :Björn Lundgren; Niklas Möller; Sven Ove Hansson; Kevin Macnish; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; definitions; distinctions; conceptual analysis; philosophy of information; philosophy of risk; security; information; information security; semantics; semantic information; veridicality thesis; informativity; appropriate access; CIA; privacy; control; context; pro tanto good; social relations; anonymity; deanonymization; ability to be anonymous; Filosofi; Philosophy;

   Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis consists of five research papers that address four tangential topics, all of which are relevant for the challenges we are facing in our socio-technical society: information, security, privacy, and anonymity. All topics are approached by similar methods, i.e. with a concern about conceptual and definitional issues. LÄS MER

3. 2. Semantic Information and Information Security : Definitional Issues

4. 3. Objective Chance : A Study in the Lewisian Tradition

   Författare :George Masterton; Lars-Göran Johansson; Ulf Danielsson; Carl Hoefer; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Theoretical philosophy; Teoretisk filosofi; Theoretical Philosophy; Teoretisk filosofi;

   Sammanfattning : This dissertation explores the notion of objective chance as reasonable degree of belief given what might loosely be called our ultimate evidence. The goal is to develop a notion of objective chance that is broadly Humean: where chance ascriptions are construed as projected, De Dicto, physical modalities. LÄS MER

5. 4. Dual control concepts for linear dynamical systems

   Författare :Mina Ferizbegovic; Håkan Hjalmarsson; Thomas B. Schön; Cristian R. Rojas; Roy Smith; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : We study simultaneous learning and control of linear dynamical systems. In such a setting, control policies are derived with respect to two objectives: i) to control the system as well as possible, given the current knowledge of system dynamics (exploitation), and ii) to gather as much information as possible about the unknown system that can improve control (exploration).

7. 5. Analysis of domestic dog mitochondrial DNA sequence variation for forensic investigations

   Författare :Helen Angleby; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biotechnology; forensics; mtDNA; control region; hair; domestic dog; breed; Bioteknik; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The first method for DNA analysis in forensics was presented in 1985. Since then, the introduction of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has rendered possible the analysis of small amounts of DNA and automated sequencing and fragment analysis techniques have facilitated the analyses.
