  2. 16. Creating Safety in Air Traffic Control

    Author : Johan M. Sanne; Boel Berner; Jane Summerton; Dave Randall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Risk; safety; air traffic control; ethnography; schemes; rules; resources; cognitive; social; interaction; coordination; socio-technical systems; Social anthropology ethnography; Socialantrolopologi etnografi;

    Abstract : Is flying safe? Indeed it is -- statistics tell us that it is far more dangerous to drive a car or take the train. But flight safety does not just happen. Instead, as it is argued in this book, it is created by a well-developed air traffic control system that continues to be highly effective -- despite increasing volumes of traffic. READ MORE

  4. 17. Random Multigraphs : Complexity Measures, Probability Models and Statistical Inference

    Author : Termeh Shafie; Ove Frank; Krzysztof Nowicki; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; multigraph; vertex labeled graph; edge labeled graph; isomorphism; edge multiplicity; simplicity and complexity; entropy; joint information; information divergence; goodness-of-fit; Statistics; statistik;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with multigraphs and their complexity which is defined and quantified by the distribution of edge multiplicities. Two random multigraph models are considered.  The first model is random stub matching (RSM) where the edges are formed by randomly coupling pairs of stubs according to a fixed stub multiplicity sequence.

  6. 19. Bayesian Sequential Inference for Dynamic Regression Models

    Author : Parfait Munezero; Mattias Villani; Helga Wagner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Bayesian sequential inference; Dynamic regression models; Particle filter; Online prediction; Particle smoothing; Linear Bayes; Statistics; statistik;

    Abstract : Many processes evolve over time and statistical models need to be adaptive to change. This thesis proposes flexible models and statistical methods for inference about a data generating process that varies over time. The models considered are quite general dynamic predictive models with parameters linked to a set of covariates via link functions. READ MORE

  7. 20. Evaluation of supply chains and post-harvest losses of selected food commodities in Ethiopia

    Author : Tadesse Kenea Amentae; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Supply chain management practices and losses in food value chains of three major food commodities in Ethiopia (milk, teff and warqe or enset) were evaluated in this thesis. Teff is a cereal, while warqe is a perennial plant from which the food products kocho and bulla are extracted. Teff, kocho and bulla are staple foods for many Ethiopians. READ MORE
