  1. 1. Dynamic Optimization for Agent-Based Systems and Inverse Optimal Control

    Author : Yibei Li; Xiaoming Hu; Per Enqvist; Yishao Zhou; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Inverse optimal control; formation control; differential game; credit scoring; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : This dissertation is concerned with three problems within the field of optimization for agent--based systems. Firstly, the inverse optimal control problem is investigated for the single-agent system. Given a dynamic process, the goal is to recover the quadratic cost function from the observation of optimal control sequences. READ MORE

  2. 2. Essays on Field Experiments and Impact Evaluation

    Author : Remidius Denis Ruhinduka; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; adaptation to climate change; ambiguity; artefactual field experiment; behavioraleconomics; charcoal; credit; deforestation; endogenous switching regression; field experiment; guilt; honesty; impact evaluation; kindness; liquidity constraint; LPG stoves; rice marketing; risk preferences; system of rice intensification; Tanzania; time preferences;

    Abstract : Paper 1: Improving Welfare Through Climate-Friendly Agriculture: The Case of the System of Rice Intensification We use rich survey data to investigate the economic impact of a climate-friendly rice farming method known as the system of rice intensification (SRI) on the welfare of rain-dependent small-holder farmers in Tanzania. SRI reduces water consumption by half, which makes it a promising farming system in the adaptation to climate change in moisture constrained areas, and it does not require flooding of rice fields, resulting in reduced methane emissions.

  3. 3. Inverse and Forward Approaches for Optimal Control and Estimation in Agent-Based Systems

    Author : Yibei Li; Xiaoming Hu; Per Enqvist; Bijoy Ghosh; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Autonomous systems; inverse optimal control; system identification; nonlinear systems; formation control; differential game; credit scoring.; Autonoma system; invers optimal styrning; system identifiering; olinjära system; formationsstyrning; differentialspel; kreditvärdering.; Optimeringslära och systemteori; Optimization and Systems Theory;

    Abstract : This dissertation is concerned with three topics within the field of optimal control and estimation in dynamical agent-based systems, with potential applications that meet both engineering and societal needs. Firstly, the inverse optimal control problem is studied. READ MORE

  4. 4. On the Foundations of Information-Flow Control and Effects

    Author : Carlos Tomé Cortiñas; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; security; programming languages; information-flow control;

    Abstract : There is no doubt that society depends crucially on software systems. Correct software is therefore a pressing matter. An important aspect of software correctness is security: for example, a banking application is secure, if at least it does not send your credit card number to an unauthorised third party. READ MORE

  5. 5. Empirical studies in money, credit and banking : the Swedish credit market in transition under the silver and gold standards 1834-1913

    Author : Anders Ögren; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The empirical results reached in this thesis contradict the traditional theoretical view of money as being exogenously introduced into an economy as a medium of exchange intended to reduce the transactions costs associated with barter. Instead money was endogenously created in the form of credit. READ MORE
