1. Some properties of measures of disagreement and disorder in paired ordinal data
Sammanfattning : The measures studied in this thesis were a measure of disorder, D, and a measure of the individual part of the disagreement, the measure of relative rank variance, RV, proposed by Svensson in 1993. The measure of disorder is a useful measure of order consistency in paired assessments of scales with a different number of possible values. LÄS MER
2. Nonparametric tests for comparing two treatments by using ordinal data
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns four nonparametric tests for comparing two treatments in a randomized controlled clinical trial when the main response variable generates discrete or continuous ordinal data and measurements are made at baseline and follow-up. In the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test (WMW) the baseline values are not taken into account at all, but in the other three tests both baseline and follow-up values are used. LÄS MER
3. Methods for interval-censored data and testing for stochastic dominance
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
4. On Rank-invariant Methods for Ordinal Data
Sammanfattning : Data from rating scale assessments have rank-invariant properties only, which means that the data represent an ordering, but lack of standardized magnitude, inter-categorical distances, and linearity. Even though the judgments often are coded by natural numbers they are not really metric. LÄS MER
5. Data association algorithms and metric design for trajectory estimation
Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with trajectory estimation, which finds applications in various fields such as automotive safety and air traffic surveillance. More specifically, the thesis focuses on the data association part of the problem, for single and multiple targets, and on performance metrics. LÄS MER
