2. 1. Hidden Markov models : Identification, control and inverse filtering

   Author : Robert Mattila; Bo Wahlberg; Eric Moulines; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hidden markov models; system identification; method of moments; inverse filtering; abdominal aortic aneurysm; medical; markov decision process; structure; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : The hidden Markov model (HMM) is one of the workhorse tools in, for example, statistical signal processing and machine learning. It has found applications in a vast number of fields, ranging all the way from bioscience to speech recognition to modeling of user interactions in social networks. READ MORE

4. 2. Markov Decision Problems in ATM Traffic Control

   Author : Ernst Nordström; Lars Asplund; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer Systems; Datorteknik;

   Abstract : This thesis discusses how to make cost-effective use of the communication resources in the Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN), which is based on the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) switching and multiplexing technique.The thesis deals with two important functions in ATM traffic control, namely Call Admission Control (CAC) and routing, which affects both the network operator's revenue over time and the users' Quality of Service (QOS) and Grade of Service (GOS).

5. 3. Learning from Interactions : Forward and Inverse Decision-Making for Autonomous Dynamical Systems

   Author : Inês de Miranda de Matos Lourenço; Bo Wahlberg; Sandra Hirche; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Intelligent systems; autonomous decision-making; Reinforcement Learning; Markov models; Human-Robot Interaction; Biologically-inspired systems; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : Decision-making is the mechanism of using available information to generate solutions to given problems by forming preferences, beliefs, and selecting courses of action amongst several alternatives. In this thesis, we study the mechanisms that generate behavior (the forward problem) and how their characteristics can explain observed behavior (the inverse problem). READ MORE

6. 4. Opinion Dynamic Models of Decision-Making in Traffic

   Author : Carl-Johan Heiker; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; decision-making; Autonomous vehicles; continuous-time Markov chains; human road users; model predictive control; opinion dynamics;

   Abstract : Autonomous vehicles (AVs) have the potential to improve both the efficiency and the safety of road traffic. Vehicles that can plan their routes, anticipate accidents and communicate open the door to transportation that is nearly free of human error. READ MORE

7. 5. Dynamic Traffic Control in Multiservice Networks - Applications of Decision Models

   Author : Ulf Ahlfors; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Distributed-Memory Systems; Overload Control; Call Admission Control; Routing; Optimization; Multiservice Networks; Markov Decision Process; Telecommunication engineering; Telekommunikationsteknik;

   Abstract : In this thesis, we develop and examine decision models intended for traffic engineering analysis of multiservice networks. Two important issues are addressed, namely call admission and routing control in multiservice broadband networks, and overload control in distributed-memory systems. READ MORE
