  1. 11. Modelling and Inference for Spatio-Temporal Marked Point Processes

    Author : Ottmar Cronie; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asymptotic normality; Consistency; Cox-Ingersoll-Ross process; Diffusion process; Edge correction; Goodness-of-fit; Richards growth function; Growth-interaction process; Immigration-death process; Least squares estimation; Markov process; Maximum likelihood estimation; Open-growth; Spatio-temporal marked point process; Stationarity; Stochastic differential equation; Transition density; Asymptotic normality;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with inference problems related to the growth-interaction process (GI-process). The GI-process is a continuous time spatio-temporal point process with dynamic interacting marks (closed disks), in which the immigration-death process (ID-process) controls the arrivals of new marked points as well as their potential life-times.

  2. 12. Channel Estimation and Prediction for MIMO OFDM Systems : Key Design and Performance Aspects of Kalman-based Algorithms

    Author : Daniel Aronsson; Mikael Sternad; Ove Edfors; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : channel estimation; channel prediction; OFDM; Kalman filtering; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Signal Processing; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot signalbehandling;

    Abstract : Wireless broadband systems based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) are being introduced to meet demands for high data transfer rates. In multiple users systems, the available bandwidth has to be shared efficiently by several users. The radio channel quality will fluctuate, or fade, as users move. READ MORE

  3. 13. Bayesian Modeling of Conditional Densities

    Author : Feng Li; Mattias Villani; Sylvia Frühwirth-Schnatter; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian inference; Density estimation; smooth mixtures; surface regression; copulas; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Statistics; statistik;

    Abstract : This thesis develops models and associated Bayesian inference methods for flexible univariate and multivariate conditional density estimation. The models are flexible in the sense that they can capture widely differing shapes of the data. The estimation methods are specifically designed to achieve flexibility while still avoiding overfitting. READ MORE

  4. 14. Continuous-Time Models in Kernel Smoothing

    Author : Martin Sköld; Matematisk statistik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; deconvolution; errors-in-variables; continuous time; dependent data; bandwidth selection; asymptotic variance; Density estimation; kernel smoothing; size bias.; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of five papers (Papers A-E) treating problems in non-parametric statistics, especially methods of kernel smoothing applied to density estimation for stochastic processes (Papers A-D) and regression analysis (Paper E). A recurrent theme is to, instead of treating highly positively correlated data as ``asymptotically independent'', take advantage of local dependence structures by using continuous-time models.

  5. 15. Investigations of thermophysical properties of slags with focus on slag-metal interface

    Author : Luckman Muhmood; Seshadri Seetharaman; Nurni Neelakandan Viswanathan; Allan Cramb; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; slags; density; diffusivity; sessile drop; interfacial velocity; interfacial viscosity; interfacial dilatational modulus; interfacial shear viscosity; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik;

    Abstract : The objective of this research work was to develop a methodology for experimentally estimating the interfacial properties at slag-metal interfaces. From previous experiments carried out in the division, it was decided to use surface active elements like sulfur or oxygen to trace any motion at the interface. READ MORE
