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

17. Ultrasound prediction of large fetuses. Epidemiological and clinical investigations
Abstract : The proportions of newborns with a birth weight (BW) >4,000 g and of macrosomic newborns (BW >4,500 g) have increased during the last two decades, parallel with an increasing maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and age at the time for pregnancy. Delivery of a large fetus, especially >4,500 g might cause perinatal complications for both the mother and her child. READ MORE

18. Assessment of mobile radiometry data in radiological emergencies using Bayesian statistical methods
Abstract : Nuclear technology and the use of radiation sources have been extensively adopted in the modern world. Despite that, a number of radiological accidents, significantly affecting population and the environment, has happened. Few of the most known are accidents in Chernobyl and Fukushima nuclear power plants. READ MORE

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

20. On computational methods for nonlinear estimation
Abstract : The Bayesian approach provides a rather powerful framework for handling nonlinear, as well as linear, estimation problems. We can in fact pose a general solution to the nonlinear estimation problem. However, in the general case there does not exist any closed-form solution and we are forced to use approximate techniques.
