  2. 11. Classification of Remotely Sensed Data Utilising the Autocorrelation between Spatio-Temporal Neighbours

    Author : Ann-Marie Flygare; Sweden Umeå Umeå University Department of Mathematical Statistics; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Image classification; strong mixing; spatio-temporal model; autocorrelation model; autocorrelation estimator; robustness aspects; strong consistency; asymptotic normality; evaluation; Statistik; Statistics;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis is methods for classifying land using satellite images, and adherent parameter estimation. A satellite image consists of a set of pixels where measurements of spectral intensities are observed. Based on these spectral intensities, each pixel is assigned a class. READ MORE

  4. 12. Analytical and Iterative Methods of Computing PageRank of Networks

    Author : Pitos Seleka Biganda; Sergei Silvestrov; Christopher Engström; Dmitrii Silvestrov; Anatoliy Malyarenko; Milica Rancic; Oleg Seleznjev; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics Applied Mathematics; matematik tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : This thesis is about variants of PageRank, methods of PageRank computation and perturbation analysis of a PageRank vector as a stationary distribution of a kind of perturbed Markov chain model. Chapter 2 of this thesis gives closed form formulae for ordinary and lazy PageRanks for some specific simple line graphs.

  5. 13. Nonparametric Statistical Inference for Entropy-type Functionals

    Author : David Källberg; Oleg Seleznjev; Timo Koski; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; entropy estimation; Rényi entropy; divergence estimation; quadratic density functional; U-statistics; consistency; asymptotic normality; Poisson convergence; stationary m-dependent sequence; inter-point distances; entropy maximizing distribution; two-sample problem; approximate matching; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we study statistical inference for entropy, divergence, and related functionals of one or two probability distributions. Asymptotic properties of particular nonparametric estimators of such functionals are investigated. We consider estimation from both independent and dependent observations. READ MORE

  6. 14. Inference in a Partially Observed Percolation Process

    Author : Oscar Hammar; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Percolation; Bayesian inference; frequentistic inference; consistency; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Monte Carlo Expectation Maximization; Markov chain Monte Carlo;

    Abstract : In this licentiate thesis, inference in a partially oberved percolation process living on a graph, is considered. Each edge of the graph is declared open with probability $\theta$ and closed with probability $1-\theta$ independently of the states of all other edges. READ MORE

  7. 15. Spins and Giants : Fundamental Excitations in Weakly and  Strongly Coupled ABJM Theory

    Author : Olof Ohlsson Sax; Joseph A. Minahan; Gianluca Grignani; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; String theory; AdS CFT correspondence; Integrable field theory; Mathematical physics; Matematisk fysik; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : The discovery of integrability on both sides of the duality between planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory and free type IIB string theory in AdS5 × S5 has lead to great progress in our understanding of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Similar integrable structures also appear in the more recent three-dimensional superconformal N=6 Chern-Simons-matter theory constructed by Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and Maldacena (ABJM), as well as in its gravity dual, type IIA string theory on AdS4 × CP3.
