1. On the Asymptotics of Increasing Dimension Models : Methods for Complete or Incomplete Data
Abstract : In some multivariate contexts there is a close relation between the number of parameters (p) and the number of observations (n). In a situation where p grows with n it frequently happens that the statistic does not converge to its true parameter. READ MORE

2. Birth cohort differences in cognitive aging: Secular trends in cognitive functioning and decline over 30 years in three population-based Swedish samples
Abstract : The overarching aim of this thesis was to investigate birth cohort differences in level of cognitive functioning and change in later life in three population-based representative samples drawn from the Gerontological and Geriatric Population Studies in Gothenburg (H70), Sweden. We used data from cohorts, born in 1901-02, 1906-07, and 1930, measured at ages 70, 75, and 79 on the same cognitive measures. READ MORE

3. Issues of incompleteness, outliers and asymptotics in high dimensional data
Abstract : This thesis consists of four individual essays and an introduction chapter. The essays are in the field of multivariate statistical analysis of High dimensional data. The first essay presents the issue of estimating the inverse covariance matrix alone and when it is used within the Mahalanobis distance in High-dimensional data. READ MORE

4. Additive Integration of Information in Multiple-Cue Judgment
Abstract : This thesis investigates adaptive shifts between different cognitive processes in multiple-cue judgment tasks. At least two qualitatively and quantitatively different cognitive strategies can be identified: one process in which abstraction and integration of cue-criterion relations form the basis for the judgment (Einhorn, Kleinmutz & Kleinmutz, 1979) and one which is based onsimilarity comparisons between a probe and similar exemplars stored in memory (Medin & Schaffer, 1978; Nosofsky, 1984; Nosofsky & Johanssen, 2000).

5. Direct Extraction of MOS Transistor Current Model Parameters
Abstract : This thesis presents a study of MOS transistor model parameter extraction. The objective of this study was to develop an efficient, accurate, robust extraction strategy which determines physically reasonable parameter values. The direct parameter extraction approach was chosen to meet these requirements. READ MORE
