6. On Bounds and Asymptotics of Sequential Monte Carlo Methods for Filtering, Smoothing, and Maximum Likelihood Estimation in State Space Models
Abstract : This thesis is based on four papers (A-D) treating filtering, smoothing, and maximum likelihood (ML) estimation in general state space models using stochastic particle filters (also referred to as sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods). The aim of Paper A is to study the bias of Monte Carlo integration estimates produced by the so-called bootstrap particle filter. READ MORE

7. Fatigue limit, inclusion and finite lives - a statistical point of view
Abstract : An important design property of steel is the fatigue limit, i.e. the load level where a specimen has infinite life. For the material it can also be defined an endurance limit, which is the stress level at which the specimen has a certain life. READ MORE

8. Analysis of Relay Channels and Improved Iterative Decoders for Turbo-Coded Decode-and-Forward Relay Channels
Abstract : Three-node relay channels which consist of a source, a relay and a destinationare considered in this thesis. In the first part, an uncoded relay channelis studied. READ MORE

9. Essays on Estimation Methods for Factor Models and Structural Equation Models
Abstract : This thesis which consists of four papers is concerned with estimation methods in factor analysis and structural equation models. New estimation methods are proposed and investigated.In paper I an approximation of the penalized maximum likelihood (ML) is introduced to fit an exploratory factor analysis model. READ MORE

10. Maximum likelihood detection for the linear MIMO channel
Abstract : this thesis the problem of maximum likelihood (ML) detection for the linear multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel is considered. The thesis investigates two algorithms previously proposed in the literature for implementing the ML detector, namely semide nite relaxation and sphere decoding. READ MORE
