1. Bayesian Phylogenetic Inference : Estimating Diversification Rates from Reconstructed Phylogenies
Abstract : Phylogenetics is the study of the evolutionary relationship between species. Inference of phylogeny relies heavily on statistical models that have been extended and refined tremendously over the past years into very complex hierarchical models. READ MORE

2. Enhanced block sparse signal recovery and bayesian hierarchical models with applications
Abstract : This thesis is carried out within two projects ‘Statistical modelling and intelligentdata sampling in Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron-emission tomography(PET) measurements for cancer therapy assessment’ and ‘WindCoE -Nordic Wind Energy Center’ during my PhD study. It mainly focuses on applicationsof Bayesian hierarchical models (BHMs) and theoretical developments ofcompressive sensing (CS). READ MORE

3. Spatial analysis and modeling of nerve fiber patterns
Abstract : Diabetic neuropathy is a condition associated with diabetes affecting the epidermal nerve fibers (ENFs). This thesis presents analysis methods and models for ENF data, with two main puroposes: to find early signs of diabetic neuropathy and to characterize how this condition changes the nerve fiber structure.

4. Assesing performance of PCR analysis using Bayesian modelling
Abstract : Different analytical methods are available to analyse the DNA samples from crime scenes or to screen samples for the presence of some target bacterium. For this purpose a method known as Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) can often be used. READ MORE

5. Prognostics and Health Management of Engineering Systems for Operation and Maintenance Optimisation
Abstract : Prognostics and health management (PHM) is an engineering discipline that aims to maintain system behaviour and function and ensure mission success, safety and effectiveness. Prognostics is defined as the estimation of remaining useful life. READ MORE
