  1. 21. Variational Methods in Combinatorial Optimization and Phylogeny Reconstruction

    Författare :Henrik Jönsson; Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; statistical physics; gravitation; relativity; annealing; variational; mean-field; phylogeny; constraint satisfaction; combinatorial optimization; maximum likelihood; Physics; Fysik; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; quantum mechanics; classical mechanics; klassisk mekanik; kvantmekanik; relativitet; statistisk fysik; termodynamik; Fysicumarkivet A:2001:Jönsson; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; thermodynamics;

    Sammanfattning : Algorithms based on the variational approach, as used in statistical physics, are developed. For constraint satisfaction problems a novel cost function, based on information-theoretic arguments, is introduced, and an algorithm similar to the mean-field annealing algorithm is proposed.

  3. 22. Characterisation and Some Statistical Aspects of Univariate and Multivariate Generalised Pareto Distributions

    Författare :Nader Tajvidi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; generalised Pareto distribution; multivariate extreme value theory; multivariate Pareto distribution; small sample properties; Bartlett s correction; maximum likelihood; statistical computations; simulation AMS 1991 subject classification: 62F11; 62E20; 60F17; 65U05; 62E20;

    Sammanfattning : Extreme value theory is about the distributions of very large or very small values in a time series or stochastic process. This has numerous applications connected with environmental science, civil engineering, materials science and insurance. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Vehicle-vehicle Interactions at Roundabouts and their Implications for the Entry Capacity - A Methodological Study with Applications to Two-lane Roundabouts

    Författare :Ola Hagring; Trafik och väg; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Samhällsvetenskaper; Social sciences; maximum likelihood; headways; critical gaps; driver behaviour; capacity; Gap acceptance; two-lane roundabouts; Technological sciences; Teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Problem: The thesis deals with the capacity of two-lane roundabouts and with vehicle-vehicle interactions there. Method: The interactions and the corresponding capacity are modelled by gap-acceptance theory. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Methods for interval-censored data and testing for stochastic dominance

    Författare :Angel G. Angelov; Magnus Ekström; Maria Karlsson; Bengt Kriström; Per Johansson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Interval-censored data; Informative censoring; Self-selected intervals; Questionnaire-based studies; Maximum likelihood; Permutation test; Two-sample test; Stochastic dominance; Four-decision test; Statistics; statistik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis includes four papers: the first three of them are concerned with methods for interval-censored data, while the forth paper is devoted to testing for stochastic dominance.In many studies, the variable of interest is observed to lie within an interval instead of being observed exactly, i.e. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Extensions and Applications of Affine Shape

    Författare :Rikard Berthilsson; Matematik LTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systems engineering; Matematik; Mathematics; density of shape; maximum likelihood; matching constraint; surface; curve; handwriting; recognition; affine shape; reconstruction; computer technology; Data- och systemvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : A central problem in computer vision is to reconstruct the three-dimensional structure of a scene from a set of two-dimensional images. Traditionally this is done by extracting a set of characteristic points in the scene and to compute a reconstruction of these points. LÄS MER
