  1. 1. Bridging the gap between caring theory and nursing practice : Learning experiences of undergraduate nursing students in a caring behavior course

    Author : Sophie Mårtensson; Maria Björk; Susanne Knutsson; Anders Broström; Eric A. Hodges; Mariann Fossum; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Caring; Narrative pedagogy; Observational behavioral instrument; Qualitative method; Quantitative observational method; Reflective practice; Student-centered learning approach; Simulation; Swanson’s Theory of Caring; Undergraduate nursing education;

    Abstract : Background: Healthcare providers are obligated to practice with scientific knowledge in order to deliver high quality and safe care based on patients’ needs. Despite this obligation, complaints from care recipients and their significant others regarding healthcare providers’ lack of compassion and competent care in their professional encounters have increased.

  2. 2. Efficient Online Learning under Bandit Feedback

    Author : Stefan Magureanu; Alexandre Proutiere; Odalric-Ambrym Maillard; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; multi-armed bandits; reinforcement learning; learning to rank; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In this thesis we address the multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem with stochastic rewards and correlated arms. Particularly, we investigate the case when the expected rewards are a Lipschitz function of the arm and extend these results to bandits with arbitrary structure that is known to the decision maker.

  3. 3. Applications of Information Inequalities to Linear Systems : Adaptive Control and Security

    Author : Ingvar Ziemann; Henrik Sandberg; Alexandre Proutiere; Nikolai Matni; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Stochastic Adaptive Control; Machine Learning; Fisher Information; Secure Control; Fundamental Limitations; Reinforcement Learning; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis considers the application of information inequalities, Cramér-Rao type bounds, based on Fisher information, to linear systems. These tools are used to study the trade-offs between learning and performance in two application areas: adaptive control and control systems security. READ MORE

  4. 4. Contributions to the theory and applications of tree languages

    Author : Johanna Högberg; Frank Drewes; Manfred Droste; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; regular tree languages; tree series; algorithmic learning; MAT-learning; bisimulation minimisation; tree-based generation; algorithmic composition; music algebra; Computer science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with theoretical as well as practical aspects of tree languages. It consists of an introduction and eight papers, organised into three parts. READ MORE

  5. 5. Structured Stochastic Bandits

    Author : Stefan Magureanu; Alexandre Proutiere; Emilie Kaufmann; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-armed bandits; Learning to rank; reinforcement learning; Lipschitz Bandits; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In this thesis we address the multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem with stochastic rewards and correlated arms. Particularly, we investigate the case when the expected rewards are a Lipschitz function of the arm, and the learning to rank problem, as viewed from a MAB perspective. READ MORE
