  4. 17. Design and analysis of response selective samples in observational studies

    Author : Maria Grünewald; Ola Hössjer; Keith Humphreys; Marie Reilly; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ascertainment; missing data; outcome dependent sampling; response selective samples; sequential design; stochastic EM algorithm; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : Outcome dependent sampling may increase efficiency in observational studies. It is however not always obvious how to sample efficiently, and how to analyze the resulting data without introducing bias. READ MORE

  5. 18. On perfect simulation and EM estimation

    Author : Kajsa Larson; Sara Sjöstedt de Luna; Mats Rudemo; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Perfect simulation; coupling from the past; Markov chain Monte Carlo; point process; Widom-Rowlinson model; EM algorithm; dispersal distribution; fecundity; first-passage percolation; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : Perfect simulation  and the EM algorithm are the main topics in this thesis. In paper I, we present coupling from the past (CFTP) algorithms that generate perfectly distributed samples from the multi-type Widom--Rowlin-son (W--R) model and some generalizations of it. READ MORE

  6. 19. Theoretical and Practical Applications of Probability : Excursions in Brownian Motion, Risk Capital Stress Testing, and Hedging of Power Derivatives

    Author : Andreas Lindell; Håkan Andersson; Mogens Steffensen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics;

    Abstract : The thesis treats three different areas; (i) Ranked increments of stable processes and ranked excursions of Brownian motion, (ii) Sufficient capital levels for banks, and (iii) Trading strategies for reduction of the fluctuations of revenues for power plants.The first part is a theoretcial investigation involved with the calculation of distribution functions concerning special properties of stable processes.

  7. 20. Stochastic Epidemic Models : Different Aspects of Heterogeneity

    Author : Mathias Lindholm; Tom Britton; Maria Deijfen; Gianpaolo Scalia Tomba; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the study of stochastic epidemic models for infectious diseases in heterogeneous populations. All diseases treated are of SIR type, i.e. individuals are either Susceptible, Infectious or Recovered (and immune). READ MORE
