1. Endogenous antioxidants in human skeletal muscle and adaption in energy metabolism : with reference to exercise-training, exercise-related factors and nutrition
Abstract : The antioxidant homeostasis is determined by a wide array of interacting cellular antioxidants, as well as being influenced by the homeostasis in energy metabolism. Changes in antioxidant homeostasis, as a consequences of altered production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). and/or by changes in the resident levels of antioxidants. READ MORE

2. Learning probabilistic models of dynamical phenomena using particle filters
Abstract : Dynamical behavior can be seen in many real-life phenomena, typically as a dependence over time. This thesis studies and develops methods and probabilistic models for statistical learning of such dynamical phenomena.A probabilistic model is a mathematical model expressed using probability theory.

3. Machine learning with state-space models, Gaussian processes and Monte Carlo methods
Abstract : Numbers are present everywhere, and when they are collected and recorded we refer to them as data. Machine learning is the science of learning mathematical models from data. Such models, once learned from data, can be used to draw conclusions, understand behavior, predict future evolution, and make decisions. READ MORE

4. Platelets and airway remodeling : Mechanisms involved in platelet-induced fibroblast and airway smooth muscle cell proliferation in vitro
Abstract : Airway remodeling is a contributing cause to the pathological structural changes, such as increased cell proliferation, observed in asthma. Platelets have been found in autopsy lungmaterial obtained from asthmatic patients and are well known to induce proliferation in vitro of a variety of cells. READ MORE
