  1. 1. Predictive Techniques and Methods for Decision Support in Situations with Poor Data Quality

    Author : Rikard König; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Rule Extraction; Genetic Programming; Uncertainty estimation; Machine Learning; Artificial Neural Networks; Data Mining; Information Fusion; Information technology; Informationsteknik; Teknik; Technology;

    Abstract : Today, decision support systems based on predictive modeling are becoming more common, since organizations often collect more data than decision makers can handle manually. Predictive models are used to find potentially valuable patterns in the data, or to predict the outcome of some event. READ MORE

  2. 2. Genetic Information - Values and Rights. The morality of presymptomatic genetic testing

    Author : Niklas Juth; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; morality; biomedical ethics; genetic information; genetic testing; presymptomatic; values; rights; autonomy; well-being; justice; genetic counselling; Kantian ethics; authenticity; privacy; confidentiality; insurance;

    Abstract : The focal point of this dissertation is the question of the value of and right to genetic information from presymptomatic genetic testing that may reveal risk of disease. This question is discussed regarding first parties, that is, the person on whom the test is performed, second parties, that is, blood relatives’ of first parties, and third parties, such as insurance companies and employers.

  3. 3. Tactical decision-making for autonomous driving: A reinforcement learning approach

    Author : Carl-Johan E Hoel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; genetic algorithm; Monte Carlo tree search; deep reinforcement learning; tactical decision-making; autonomous driving; neural network;

    Abstract : The tactical decision-making task of an autonomous vehicle is challenging, due to the diversity of the environments the vehicle operates in, the uncertainty in the sensor information, and the complex interaction with other road users. This thesis introduces and compares three general approaches, based on reinforcement learning, to creating a tactical decision-making agent. READ MORE

  4. 4. INDIVIDUAL GENETIC RESEARCH RESULTS : Uncertainties, Conceptions, and Preferences

    Author : Jennifer Viberg Johansson; M G Hansson; Pär Segerdahl; Sophie Langenskiöld; Marion McAllister; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Incidental findings; genetic risk information; research participants; risk perception; free choice; framing; conceptions of genetic risk; making sense of genetic risk; preferences for genetic risk information;

    Abstract : This thesis contributes to the ethical discussion on how to handle incidental findings in biomedical research using sequencing technologies from a theoretical and an empirical perspective. Study I and II are theoretical studies that used conceptual analysis. READ MORE
