  2. 1. Accelerating Monte Carlo methods for Bayesian inference in dynamical models

    Author : Johan Dahlin; Thomas B. Schön; Fredrik Lindsten; Richard Everitt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computational statistics; Monte Carlo; Markov chains; Particle filters; Machine learning; Bayesian optimisation; Approximate Bayesian Computations; Gaussian processes; Particle Metropolis-Hastings; Approximate inference; Pseudo-marginal methods;

    Abstract : Making decisions and predictions from noisy observations are two important and challenging problems in many areas of society. Some examples of applications are recommendation systems for online shopping and streaming services, connecting genes with certain diseases and modelling climate change. READ MORE

  4. 2. Bayesian Inference for Nonlinear Dynamical Systems : Applications and Software Implementation

    Author : Jerker Nordh; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Indoor Navigation; pyParticleEst; Software Implementation; Simultaneous Localization and Mapping; Parameter Estimation; System Identification; Sequential Importance Sampling; Particle Filter; Bayesian Inference; Markov Chain Monte Carlo; Particle Smoother;

    Abstract : The topic of this thesis is estimation of nonlinear dynamical systems, focusing on the use of methods such as particle filtering and smoothing. There are three areas of contributions: software implementation, applications of nonlinear estimation and some theoretical extensions to existing algorithms. READ MORE

  5. 3. Computational methods for Bayesian inference in macroeconomic models

    Author : Ingvar Strid; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The New Macroeconometrics may succinctly be described as the application of Bayesian analysis to the class of macroeconomic models called Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models. A prominent local example from this research area is the development and estimation of the RAMSES model, the main macroeconomic model in use at Sveriges Riksbank. READ MORE

  6. 4. Sequential Monte Carlo for inference in nonlinear state space models

    Author : Johan Dahlin; Thomas Schön; Fredrik Lindsten; Adam M. Johansen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Nonlinear state space models (SSMs) are a useful class of models to describe many different kinds of systems. Some examples of its applications are to model; the volatility in financial markets, the number of infected persons during an influenza epidemic and the annual number of major earthquakes around the world.
