6. Mathematical programming for optimal probability weighting
Sammanfattning : In spite of the fact that probability weighting is widely used in statistics to correct for unequal sampling, control for confounding, and handle missing data, it has two main limitations. First, statistical inferences may be inefficient in the presence of extreme probability weights. LÄS MER
7. Price measurement and index construction : some contributions to theory and application
Sammanfattning : Four different problems are treated, all concerned with problems arising when compiling price indexes in official statistics. One deals with the computation of so called elementary aggregates, low level indexes for single products, when proper weights for the observations are not available. LÄS MER
8. Carlson type inequalities and their applications
Sammanfattning : This thesis treats inequalities of Carlson type, i.e. inequalities of the form∥f∥x≤K∏i=1m∥f∥Aiθiwhere ∑i=1mθi =1 and K is some constant, independent of the function f. X and Ai are normed spaces, embedded in some Hausdorff topological vector space. LÄS MER
9. On Invertibility of the Radon Transform and Compressive Sensing
Sammanfattning : This thesis contains three articles. The first two concern inversion andlocal injectivity of the weighted Radon transform in the plane. The thirdpaper concerns two of the key results from compressive sensing.In Paper A we prove an identity involving three singular double integrals. LÄS MER
10. Asymptotics, weak convergence and duality in population genetics
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers on asymptotic results and stochastic duality for some processes in mathematical population genetics. The focus is on Wright-Fisher diffusions and coalescent processes, which model, respectively, the evolution of frequencies of genetic types and genealogies in a population,and play a key role in inference on genetic data sets.
