  1. 1. Modeling Collective Decision-Making in Animal Groups

    Author : Boris Granovskiy; David J. T. Sumpter; Mary R. Myerscough; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; collective animal behavior; collective intelligence; swarm intelligence; wisdom of crowds; mathematical modeling; stochastic modeling; agent-based modeling; Markov chain models;

    Abstract : Many animal groups benefit from making decisions collectively. For example, colonies of many ant species are able to select the best possible nest to move into without every ant needing to visit each available nest site. READ MORE

  2. 2. Distributed Photovoltaics, Household Electricity Use and Electric Vehicle Charging : Mathematical Modeling and Case Studies

    Author : Joakim Munkhammar; Joakim Widén; Ewa Wäckelgård; Jesper Rydén; Peter Lund; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Distributed Photovoltaics; Household Electricity Use; Electric Vehicle Charging; Markov Chain Modeling; Probability Distribution Modeling; Data Analysis; Self-Consumption; Grid Interaction.; Engineering Science; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : Technological improvements along with falling prices on photovoltaic (PV) panels and electric vehicles (EVs) suggest that they might become more common in the future. The introduction of distributed PV power production and EV charging has a considerable impact on the power system, in particular at the end-user in the electricity grid. READ MORE

  3. 3. Bayesian Modeling of Directional Data with Acoustic and Other Applications

    Author : Jalil Taghia; Arne Leijon; W. Bastiaan Kleijn; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Directional statistics; directional distributions; axial distributions; von Mises-Fisher distribution; complex Watson distribution; complex Bingham distribution; Bayesian inference; probabilistic modeling; variational inference; two-dimensional hidden Markov models; Markov chain; blind source separation; frequency domain BSS; underdetermined BSS; online BSS; Bayesian recursive; gene expression data; gene-microarray data; line spectral frequency; speaker identification. ii;

    Abstract : A direction is defined here as a multi-dimensional unit vector. Such unitvectors form directional data. Closely related to directional data are axialdata for which each direction is equivalent to the opposite direction.Directional data and axial data arise in various fields of science. READ MORE

  4. 4. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling in risk assessment - Development of Bayesian population methods

    Author : Fredrik Jonsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical biosciences; methyl chloride; dichloromethane; toluene; styrene; uncertainty; intra- individual variability; risk assessment; physiologically based modeling; Markov chain Monte Carlo; PBPK; Bayesian; population modeling; Farmaceutisk biovetenskap; Biopharmacy; Biofarmaci; Biopharmaceutics; biofarmaci;

    Abstract : In risk assessment of risk chemicals, variability in susceptibility in the population is an important aspect. The health hazard of a pollutant is related to the internal exposure to the chemical, i.e. the target dose, rather than the external exposure. READ MORE

  5. 5. Markov-chain modeling of energy users and electric vehicles : Applications to distributed photovoltaics

    Author : Joakim Munkhammar; Joakim Widén; Ola Carlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Abstract : Technological improvements and falling prices on photovoltaic panels andelectric vehicles suggest that they might become more common in future households.The introduction of a photovoltaic system and an electric vehiclehas considerable impact on the energy balance of a household.
