  2. 1. Non-parametric methods for functional data

    Author : Johan Strandberg; Sara Sjöstedt de Luna; Konrad Abramowicz; Lina Schelin; Charlotte Häger; Pedro Delicado; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; functional data analysis; testing; clustering; prediction; inference; bagging Voronoi strategy; kriging; dependency; matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics;

    Abstract : In this thesis we develop and study non-parametric methods within three major areas of functional data analysis: testing, clustering and prediction. The thesis consists of an introduction to the field, a presentation and discussion of the three areas, and six papers. READ MORE

  4. 2. Pathway analysis: methods and perspectives

    Author : Gustavo Stolf Jeuken; Lukas Käll; Mika Gustafsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pathway analysis; mutual information; survival analysis; enrichment analysis; transcriptomics.; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : The amount of data being generated by high throughput molecular biology experiments grows every day, both in quantity and quality. With this comes the desire to have more powerful and comprehensive methods for statistical analysis that have been developed with the nature of this data in mind. READ MORE

  5. 3. Functional association networks for disease gene prediction

    Author : Dimitri Guala; Erik L L Sonnhammer; Hjalmar Brismar; Yves Moreau; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; network biology; biological networks; network prediction; functional association; functional coupling; network integration; functional association networks; genome-wide association networks; gene networks; protein networks; fret; functional enrichment analysis; network cross-talk; pathway annotation; gene prioritisation; network-based gene prioritization; benchmarking; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik;

    Abstract : Mapping of the human genome has been instrumental in understanding diseasescaused by changes in single genes. However, disease mechanisms involvingmultiple genes have proven to be much more elusive. Their complexityemerges from interactions of intracellular molecules and makes them immuneto the traditional reductionist approach. READ MORE

  6. 4. Characterisation of Functional Pressing Die Surfaces

    Author : Johan C Berglund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; functional correlation; functional surface; functional filtration; pressing die; multi-scale analysis; characterisation; finish milling; texture anisotropy; polishing; surface topography;

    Abstract : The manufacture of dies and moulds is a critical aspect of many production systems since the manufacturing and try-out of new dies and moulds often is essential in determining the lead-time and quality of a new production system. In the automotive industry, many new car models are introduced each year and for each of these models, a new set of pressing dies has to be designed and manufactured. READ MORE

  7. 5. Adaptive analysis of functional MRI data

    Author : Ola Friman; William M. Wells III; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) is a recently developed neuroimaging technique with capacity to map neural activity with high spatial precision. To locate active brain areas, the method utilizes local blood oxygenation changes which are reflected as small intensity changes in a special type of MR images. READ MORE
