2. 6. Some Aspects on Confirmatory Factor Analysis of Ordinal Variables and Generating Non-normal Data

   Author : Hao Luo; Fan Yang-Wallentin; Johan Lyhagen; Karl Jöreskog; Marie Wiberg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; confirmatory factor analysis; ordinal variables; maximum likelihood; weighted least squares; polychoric correlation; non-normal data; Fleishman s method; Monte Carlo simulation; Statistics; Statistik; Statistics; Statistik;

   Abstract : This thesis, which consists of five papers, is concerned with various aspects of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of ordinal variables and the generation of non-normal data. The first paper studies the performances of different estimation methods used in CFA when ordinal data are encountered. READ MORE

4. 7. Channel Estimation for Amplify and Forward Relay Networks

   Author : Panagiota Lioliou; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; channel estimation; relay networks; Multiple-input-multiple-output MIMO ; Cramer-Rao Lower Bound CRB .; least squares LS ;

   Abstract : The use of intermediate-relaying nodes has been identified as a promising technique for enhancing coverage and combating the impairments of Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) wireless channels. The main ideais to introduce relays that forward the data to the destination which isotherwise out of the reach of the source. READ MORE

5. 8. On Parameter Estimation and Control of Time-Varying Stochastic Systems

   Author : Bengt Lindoff; Matematisk statistik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Statistics; Adaptive Predictive Control; Adaptive Stochastic Control; Dual Control; Convergence Analysis; Quadratic Forms; Forgetting Factor; Recursive Least Squares; Recursive Estimation; Linear Systems; Time-Varying Stochastic Systems; operations research; programming; actuarial mathematics; Statistik; operationsanalys; programmering; aktuariematematik;

   Abstract : This thesis is about parameter estimation and control of time-varying stochastic systems. It can be divided into two parts. The first part deals with an estimation algorithm commonly used when estimating parameters in time-varying stochastic systems, the Recursive Least Squares (RLS) algorithm with forgetting factor.

6. 9. Different Aspects of Inference for Spatio-Temporal Point Processes

   Author : Ottmar Cronie; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asymptotic normality; Consistency; Edge correction; Immigration-death process; Least squares estimation; Maximum likelihood estimation; Spatio-temporal marked point process; Transition probability.; Consistency;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with inference problems related to the Renshaw-Särkkä growth interaction model (RS-model). It is a continuous time spatio-temporal point process with time dependent interacting marks, in which the immigrationdeath process (a continuous time Markov chain) controls the arrivals of new marked points as well as their potential life-times.

7. 10. Spectral analysis and magnetic resonance spectroscopy

   Author : Tomas Sundin; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nonparametric spectral analysis; magnetic resonance spectroscopy; parameter estimation; maximum likelihood estimation; nonlinear least squares; Signal processing; Signalbehandling; Signal Processing; Signalbehandling;

   Abstract : This dissertation is concerned with nonparametric approaches for spectral analysis (SA) and algorithms for magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) data analysis.A method to obtain the optimal smoothing window for the class of SA methods based on local smoothing of the periodogram is proposed.
