1. Predictive Healthcare : Cervical Cancer Screening Risk Stratification and Genetic Disease Markers
Sammanfattning : The use of Machine Learning is rapidly expanding into previously uncharted waters. In the medicine fields there are vast troves of data available from hospitals, biobanks and registries that now are being explored due to the tremendous advancement in computer science and its related hardware. LÄS MER
2. Predictive eyes precede retrieval : visual recognition as hypothesis testing
Sammanfattning : Does visual recognition entail verifying an idea about what is perceived? This question was addressed in the three studies of this thesis. The main hypothesis underlying the investigation was that visual recognition is an active process involving hypothesis testing. LÄS MER
3. Learning local predictive accuracy for expert evaluation and forecast combination
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers that study several topics related to expert evaluation and aggregation. Paper I explores the properties of Bayes factors. Bayes factors, which are used for Bayesian hypothesis testing as well as to aggregate models using Bayesian model averaging, are sometimes observed to behave erratically. LÄS MER
4. Exercise Testing in Firefighters : Work Capacity and Cardiovascular Risk Assessment in a Low-Risk Population
Sammanfattning : Background. Firefighting is one of the most physically demanding occupations and it requires a high cardiorespiratory fitness level. LÄS MER
5. Predictive Modelling of Heavy Metals in Urban Lakes
Sammanfattning : Heavy metals are well-known environmental pollutants. In this thesis predictive models for heavy metals in urban lakes are discussed and new models presented. The base of predictive modelling is empirical data from field investigations of many ecosystems covering a wide range of ecosystem characteristics. LÄS MER
