1. Model-based coding : extraction, coding, and evaluation of face model parameters
Abstract : This thesis deals with model-based coding of human faces for low bitrate communication. The basicidea of model-based coding is that the appearance and motion of a human face are analysed. By thisanalysis, compact parameters allowing realistic visualization of a synthetic face are extracted. READ MORE

2. Model Based Fault Diagnosis : Methods, Theory, and Automotive Engine Applications
Abstract : Model based fault diagnosis is to perform fault diagnosis by means of models. An important question is how to use the models to construct a diagnosis system. To develop a general theory for this, useful in real applications, is the topic of the first part of this thesis. READ MORE

3. Mean-Variance Portfolio Optimization : Eigendecomposition-Based Methods
Abstract : Modern portfolio theory is about determining how to distribute capital among available securities such that, for a given level of risk, the expected return is maximized, or for a given level of return, the associated risk is minimized. In the pioneering work of Markowitz in 1952, variance was used as a measure of risk, which gave rise to the wellknown mean-variance portfolio optimization model. READ MORE

4. Production scheduling and shipment planning at oil refineries : optimization based methods
Abstract : In the oil refinery industry, companies need to have a high utilization of production, storage, and transportation resources to be competitive. This can only be achieved by proper planning The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to the development of optimization models and solution methods that support the scheduling and planning at refinery companies.

5. Distributed System Simulation Methods : For Model-Based Product Development
Abstract : Distributed system simulation can increase performance, re-usability and modularity in model-based product development. This thesis investigates four aspects of distributed simulation: multi-threaded simulations, simulation tool coupling, distributed equation solvers and parallel optimization algorithms. READ MORE
