  1. 16. Prediction in Typical and Atypical Development

    Författare :Sheila Achermann; Terje Falck-Ytter; Pär Nyström; Sabine Hunnius; Jonathan Delafield-Butt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Prediction; Infancy; Developmental Psychology; Motor Development; Motor Control; Motion Tracking; Executive Functions; Embodied Cognition; Eye Tracking; Visual Motion; Predictive Coding; Autism Spectrum Disorder; Infant Siblings; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Forming predictions about what is going to happen next is a crucial ability that develops early in life. Theory and some empirical evidence suggest that predictive abilities may be impaired in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). LÄS MER

  3. 17. Bayesian Inference in Large Data Problems

    Författare :Matias Quiroz; Mattias Villani; Bani K. Mallick; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian inference; Large data sets; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Survey sampling; Pseudo-marginal MCMC; Delayed acceptance MCMC; Statistics; statistik;

    Sammanfattning : In the last decade or so, there has been a dramatic increase in storage facilities and the possibility of processing huge amounts of data. This has made large high-quality data sets widely accessible for practitioners. This technology innovation seriously challenges traditional modeling and inference methodology. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Water and Carbon Balance Modeling: Methods of Uncertainty Analysis

    Författare :John Juston; Per-Erik Jansson; Georg Lindgren; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modeling; uncertainty analysis; water balance; carbon balance; GLUE; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

    Sammanfattning : How do additional data of the same and/or different type contribute to reducing model parameter and predictive uncertainties? This was the question addressed with two models – the HBV hydrological water balance model and the ICBM soil carbon balance model – that were used to investigate the usefulness of the Generalized Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) method for calibrations and uncertainty analyses.  The GLUE method is based on threshold screening of Monte Carlo simulations using so-called informal likelihood measures and subjective acceptance criterion.

  5. 19. Causes and Consequences of Early-life Conditions : Alcohol, Pollution and Parental Leave Policies

    Författare :Jenny Jans; J. Peter Nilsson; Per Johansson; Arizo Karimi; Matthew Neidell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Air pollution; alcohol availability; parental leave policies; health; educational attainment; earnings; time investments; child outcomes; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : Essay I: This paper studies the effect of air pollution on infant health in Sweden. Combining register panel data on birth outcomes and family characteristics with pollution data, I estimate the effect of particulate matter (PM10) on several birth outcomes that previously have been shown to be predictive of future outcomes.

  7. 20. Development, Application and Evaluation of Statistical Tools in Pharmacometric Data Analysis

    Författare :Lars Lindbom; Niclas Jonsson; Mats Karlsson; Pascal Girard; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Pharmaceutical biosciences; pharmacometrics; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; methodology; statistics; model evaluation; resampling methods; Farmaceutisk biovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Pharmacometrics uses models based on pharmacology, physiology and disease for quantitative analysis of interactions between drugs and patients. The availability of software implementing modern statistical methods is important for efficient model building and evaluation throughout pharmacometric data analyses. LÄS MER
