1. Learning Stochastic Nonlinear Dynamical Systems Using Non-stationary Linear Predictors
Sammanfattning : The estimation problem of stochastic nonlinear parametric models is recognized to be very challenging due to the intractability of the likelihood function. Recently, several methods have been developed to approximate the maximum likelihood estimator and the optimal mean-square error predictor using Monte Carlo methods. LÄS MER
2. Novel likelihood-based inference techniques for sequential data with medical and biological applications
Sammanfattning : The probabilistic approach is crucial in modern machine learning, as it provides transparency and quantification of uncertainty. This thesis is concerned with the probabilistic building blocks, i.e., probabilistic graphical models (PGM) followed by application of standard deterministic approximate inference, i. LÄS MER
3. Brain functional near infrared spectroscopy in human infants : cerebral cortical haemodynamics coupled to neuronal activation in response to sensory stimulation
Sammanfattning : The assessment of cortical activation in the neonatal brain is crucial in the study of brain development, as it provides precious information for how the newborn infant processes external or internal stimuli. Thus far functional studies of neonates aimed to assess cortical responses to certain external stimuli are very few, due to the lack of suitable techniques to monitor brain activity of the newborn.

4. Multidimensional Markov-Functional and Stochastic Volatiliy Interest Rate Modelling
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three papers in the area of interest rate derivatives modelling. The pricing and hedging of (exotic) interest rate derivatives is one of the most demanding and complex problems in option pricing theory and is of great practical importance in the market. LÄS MER
5. Deep Learning for Wildfire Progression Monitoring Using SAR and Optical Satellite Image Time Series
Sammanfattning : Wildfires have coexisted with human societies for more than 350 million years, always playing an important role in affecting the Earth's surface and climate. Across the globe, wildfires are becoming larger, more frequent, and longer-duration, and tend to be more destructive both in lives lost and economic costs, because of climate change and human activities.
