  1. 1. Extreme Value Analysis of Huge Datasets: Tail Estimation Methods in High-Throughput Screening and Bioinformatics

    Författare :Dmitrii Zholud; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Extreme Value Statistics; High-Throughput Screening; HTS; Bioinformatics; analysis of huge datasets; quality control; correction of theoretical p-values; comparison of pre-processing methods; SmartTail; estimation of False Discovery Rates; test power; distribution tail; high level excursions; quantile estimation; multiple testing; Student t−test; Welch statistic; small sample sizes; F−test; Wiener process; Gaussian random walk; Shepp statistic; limit theorems; exotic options.; estimation of False Discovery Rates;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents results in Extreme Value Theory with applications to High-Throughput Screening and Bioinformatics. The methods described here, however, are applicable to statistical analysis of huge datasets in general. The main results are covered in four papers. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Parameter estimation in heterogeneous catalysis

    Författare :Jonas Sjöblom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microkinetic modelling; Jacobian; Parameter estimation; Latent Variable models; Design of experiments; heterogeneous catalysis; sensitivity analysis; Experimental design;

    Sammanfattning : The detailed modelling of heterogeneous catalytic systems is challenging due to the unknown nature of new catalytic materials as well as the often required transient nature of the resulting models. Thus, this thesis deals with the methodologies involved in the kinetic modelling of heterogeneous catalysis and in particular NOx reduction systems. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Optimisation of Clinical Trials using Bayesian Decision Theory

    Författare :Sebastian Jobjörnsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; decision theory; drug regulation; ; Bayesian statistics; subgroup analysis; clinical trials; health economics; multiple testing; decision theory;

    Sammanfattning : A decision maker confronted with the task of designing a clinical trial has to consider a multitude of aspects. Large trials lead to more evidence,which in turn makes it less likely that harmful decisions are taken when deciding on future treatments for patients. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Computational methods for assessing chemical risk : focusing on toxicokinetic modelling in zebrafish (danio rerio)

    Författare :Ioana C. Chelcea; Patrik L. Andersson; Timo Hamers; Jessica Legradi; Stefan Örn; Carolina Vogs; Nynke Kramer; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PBTK; Toxicokinetics; Endocrine disruptors; bisphenols; zebrafish; embryo; Toxicology; toxikologi;

    Sammanfattning : New chemicals are constantly produced and large data gaps exist on hazards of currently used industrial chemicals, stressing the need for rapid, ethically sound and cost-efficient hazard assessment methods. Traditional methods for effect assessment based on animal testing, do not meet these requirements and thus the toxicology field has been moving towards the development of new approach methodologies which include in vitro approaches but also computational methods.

  5. 5. Statistical modelling in chemistry - applications to nuclear magnetic resonance and polymerase chain reaction

    Författare :Halfdan Grage; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Statistik; operationsanalys; programmering; aktuariematematik; programming; actuarial mathematics; Statistics; operations research; experimental design.; logistic regression; detection probability; region of operability; sampling. Diagnostic PCR; Cramér-Rao bounds; maximum likelihood estimation; NMR spectroscopy; Gaussian noise;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of two parts with the common theme of statistical modelling in chemistry. The first part is concerned with applications in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, while the second part deals with applications in polymerase chain reaction (PCR). LÄS MER
