  2. 1. Topics on fractional Brownian motion and regular variation for stochastic processes

    Author : Henrik Hult; KTH; []
    Keywords : stochastic processes; regular variation; extreme value theory; fractional Brownian motion; parameter estimation;

    Abstract : The first part of this thesis studies tail probabilities forelliptical distributions and probabilities of extreme eventsfor multivariate stochastic processes. It is assumed that thetails of the probability distributions satisfy a regularvariation condition. READ MORE

  5. 3. Tools and annotations for variation

    Author : Gerard C.P. Schaafsma; Proteinbioinformatik; []
    Keywords : Annotation; genetic variation; benchmarks; databases; disease groups; pathogenicity; proteins; representativeness; sensitivity; variant effect analysis;

    Abstract : Since the finishing of the Human Genome Project, many next-generation (NGS) or high-throughput sequencing platforms have emerged. One of the applications of NGS technology, variant discovery, can serve as a basis for precision medicine. READ MORE

  6. 4. Genetic, morphological and chemical variation in the genus Harpagophytum

    Author : Mbaki Muzila; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Harpagophytum procumbens is a valuable medicinal plant but mistakes with plant identification at harvesting, and wilful adulteration using the presumably less efficient H. zeyheri are suggested. A multidisciplinary study with plant material from Botswana was conducted. READ MORE

  7. 5. Learning to solve problems that you have not learned to solve: Strategies in mathematical problem solving

    Author : Éva Fülöp; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Problem-solving strategies; Problem-solving ability; Variation theory; Design principles; Classroom teaching; Design-based research DBR ;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the relationship between problem-solving strategies and success in mathematical problem solving. In its introductory part, it pursues and describes the term strategy in mathematics and discusses its relationship to the method and algorithm concepts. READ MORE
