2. 16. Nonparametric Message Passing Methods for Cooperative Localization and Tracking

   Author : Vladimir Savic; Santiago Zazo; Spain Technical University of Madrid; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cooperative localization; tracking; wireless sensor networks; message passing; particle filtering; belief propagation; RFID;

   Abstract : The objective of this thesis is the development of cooperative localization and tracking algorithms using nonparametric message passing techniques. In contrast to the most well-known techniques, the goal is to estimate the posterior probability density function (PDF) of the position of each sensor. READ MORE

4. 17. A Resource for Quantum Computation

   Author : Niklas Johansson; Jan-Åke Larsson; Peter Jonsson; Christian Calude; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : In this thesis we address the question, what is the resource, or property, that enables the advantage of quantum computers? The theory of quantum computers dates back to the eighties, so one would think there already is an answer to this question. There are several proposed solutions, but to this date, there is no consensus on an answer. READ MORE

5. 18. On Distributed Optimization in Networked Systems

   Author : Björn Johansson; Mikael Johansson; Asuman Ozdaglar; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; convex optimization; resource allocation; networked systems; peer-to-peer; distributed optimization; Telecommunication; Telekommunikation; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

   Abstract : Numerous control and decision problems in networked systems can be posed as optimization problems. Examples include the framework of network utility maximization for resource allocation in communication networks, multi-agent coordination in robotics, and collaborative estimation in wireless sensor networks (WSNs).

   Abstract : Background: Careful airway management, including tracheal intubation, is important when performing anaesthesia in order to achieve safe tracheal intubation. Aim: To study airway management in anaesthesia care from both the professional and patient perspectives. READ MORE

7. 20. Neural Network Ensembles and Combinatorial Optimization with Applications in Medicine

   Author : Henrik Haraldsson; Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; numerisk analys; machine learning; artificial neural networks; ensemble methods; feature extraction; ECG; combinatorial optimization; mean field annealing; Computer science; numerical analysis; systems; Datalogi; control; system; kontroll; Artificial intelligens; Artificiell intelligens; Fysicumarkivet A:2003:Haraldsson;

   Abstract : Artificial neural network (ANN) and combinatorial optimization algorithms are developed, and applied to the medical domain. A novel method for training an ensemble of ANN is presented, based on random weight updates alternated with replication of networks with low error. READ MORE
