  1. 1. On Informative Path Planning for Tracking and Surveillance

    Author : Per Boström-Rost; Gustaf Hendeby; Daniel Axehill; Petter Ögren; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis studies a class of sensor management problems called informative path planning (IPP). Sensor management refers to the problem of optimizing control inputs for sensor systems in dynamic environments in order to achieve operational objectives. READ MORE

  2. 2. Methods for interval-censored data and testing for stochastic dominance

    Author : Angel G. Angelov; Magnus Ekström; Maria Karlsson; Bengt Kriström; Per Johansson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Interval-censored data; Informative censoring; Self-selected intervals; Questionnaire-based studies; Maximum likelihood; Permutation test; Two-sample test; Stochastic dominance; Four-decision test; Statistics; statistik;

    Abstract : This thesis includes four papers: the first three of them are concerned with methods for interval-censored data, while the forth paper is devoted to testing for stochastic dominance.In many studies, the variable of interest is observed to lie within an interval instead of being observed exactly, i.e. READ MORE

  3. 3. What can genetically informative designs add to the understanding of ADHD?

    Author : Qi Chen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []

  4. 4. Informative Paternalism. Case studies in the ethics of promoting and predicting health

    Author : Nina Nikku; Lennart Nordenfelt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : paternalism; medical ethics; health promotion; predictive medicine; health information; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This dissertation deals with the ethical conflict between promoting health and respecting the individual's right to self-determination. An action which is performed with the intention of benefiting the recipient but without his informed consent is defined as paternalistic. READ MORE

  5. 5. Test Design for Finite Element Model Updating - Identifiable Parameters and Informative Test Data

    Author : Andreas Linderholt; Thomas Abrahamsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; modal tests; test design; identifiability; Fisher information; optimization; data informativeness; model updating; Maskinteknik;

    Abstract : It is important to predict structural phenomena, such as noise and fatigue, stemming from vibrations. To do this, reliable structural dynamic models are needed. To be useful the models have to compare well with reality in the validation against test data; if not, the models should be modified. READ MORE
