  2. 1. A concrete dam assessment approach using probabilistic non-linear finite element analysis and scale model testing

    Author : Adrian Ulfberg; Gabriel Sas; Oisik Das; Jaime Gonzalez; Richard Malm; Fredrik Johansson; Marie Westberg Wilde; Leif Lia; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Finite element analysis; Scale model testing; Probabilistic analysis; Byggkonstruktion; Structural Engineering;

    Abstract : Dams are vital infrastructure for society as they provide various services (e.g., flood prevention, storage of byproducts from mining operations, water storage for irrigation and hydropower generation) by the impoundment of liquids. READ MORE

  4. 2. Learning of probabilistic inference tasks : effects of uncertainty and function form

    Author : Håkan Alm; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Inference; learning; cognition;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the problem of how people learn to use uncer­tain information for making judgments. The general framework for the thesis is Social Judgment Theory (SJT). First the S3T paradigm, and some research conducted within the paradigm, is briefly described, and a series of four empirical studies is summarized. READ MORE

  5. 3. Aspects on probabilistic approach to design : From uncertainties in pre-investigation to final design

    Author : Anders Prästings; Stefan Larsson; Rasmus Müller; Jan Laue; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reliability-based design; Geotechnical design; Geotechnical structures; Sheet-pile wall; Characterization of uncertainties; Geotechnical investigations;

    Abstract : Geotechnical engineering is strongly associated with large uncertainties. Exploring a medium (soil) that is almost entirely and completely hidden from us is no easy task. Investigations can be made only at discrete points, and the majority of a specific soil volume is never tested. READ MORE

  6. 4. Control-Theoretical Perspective in Feedback-Based Systems Testing

    Author : Claudio Mandrioli; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Self-Adaptive Systems (SAS) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) have received significant attention in recent computer engineering research. This is due to their ability to improve the level of autonomy of engineering artefacts. In both cases, this autonomy increase is achieved through feedback. READ MORE

  7. 5. Probalistic Methods In Genomic Data Analysis

    Author : Thomas Breslin; Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pathway profiling; Bioinformatics; medical informatics; biomathematics biometrics; Bioinformatik; medicinsk informatik; differential gene expression; probabilistic methods; Natural science; Naturvetenskap; biomatematik; annotation analysis; microarray; Fysicumarkivet A:2004:Breslin;

    Abstract : In this thesis, three aspects of gene expression data analysis are discussed: Differential gene expression is addressed by a probabilistic method. Gene annotation enrichment analysis is discussed in the context of multiple hypothesis testing and the choice of null hypothesis. READ MORE
