  2. 11. Bayesian Inference in Large Data Problems

    Author : Matias Quiroz; Mattias Villani; Bani K. Mallick; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian inference; Large data sets; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Survey sampling; Pseudo-marginal MCMC; Delayed acceptance MCMC; Statistics; statistik;

    Abstract : In the last decade or so, there has been a dramatic increase in storage facilities and the possibility of processing huge amounts of data. This has made large high-quality data sets widely accessible for practitioners. This technology innovation seriously challenges traditional modeling and inference methodology. READ MORE

  4. 12. Variational Inference of Dynamic Factor Models

    Author : Erik Spånberg; Pär Stockhammar; Gebrenegus Ghilagaber; Sune Karlsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dynamic factor models; variational inference; missing data; nowcasting; expectation maximization; statistik; Statistics;

    Abstract : When we make difficult and crucial decisions, forecasts are powerful and important tools. For that purpose, statistical models can be our most effective aid. Ideally, these models can incorporate large sets of multifaceted data. READ MORE

  5. 13. Towards Reliable Gene Regulatory Network Inference

    Author : Daniel Morgan; Erik Sonnhammer; John Quackenbush; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GRN; network inference; biological systems; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik;

    Abstract : Phenotypic traits are now known to stem from the interplay between genetic variables across many if not every level of biology. The field of gene regulatory network (GRN) inference is concerned with understanding the regulatory interactions between genes in a cell, in order to build a model that captures the behaviour of the system.

  6. 14. Robust inference of gene regulatory networks : System properties, variable selection, subnetworks, and design of experiments

    Author : Torbjörn E. M. Nordling; Elling W Jacobsen; Rolf Findeisen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; network inference; reverse engineering; variable selection; model selection; feature selection; subset selection; system identification; system theory; network theory; subnetworks; design of experiments; perturbation experiments; gene regulatory networks; biological networks;

    Abstract : In this thesis, inference of biological networks from in vivo data generated by perturbation experiments is considered, i.e. deduction of causal interactions that exist among the observed variables. Knowledge of such regulatory influences is essential in biology. READ MORE

  7. 15. Bayesian inference in probabilistic graphical models

    Author : Felix Leopoldo Rios; Tatjana Pavlenko; Alun Thomas; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Graphical models; Bayesian inference; predictive classification; decomposable graphs; Tillämpad matematik och beräkningsmatematik; Applied and Computational Mathematics;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers studying structure learning and Bayesian inference in probabilistic graphical models for both undirected and directed acyclic graphs (DAGs).Paper A presents a novel algorithm, called the Christmas tree algorithm (CTA), that incrementally construct junction trees for decomposable graphs by adding one node at a time to the underlying graph.
