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. Modelling transport, accessibility and productivity in Öresund

   Author : Tom Petersen; KTH; []
   Keywords : infrastructure assessment; regional consequences; validation; microlevel panel data; non-parametric method;

   Abstract : This licentiate thesis is about the provision of transportinfrastructure and the regional impacts of such provision.Three different techniques have been investigated that can beused for the assessment and forecasting of the effects ofinfrastructure: transport demand models and parametric andnon-parametric econometric estimation techniques.

5. 3. A Non-Stationary perspective on the European and Swedish Business Cycle

   Author : Louise Holm; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Business cycles; business cycle dating; non-parametric smoothing; non-stationarity; recession prediction; interest rate spread; binary respons models; Business and economics; Ekonomi; Humanities and Social sciences; Humaniora-samhällsvetenskap; Business cycles; business cycle dating; non-parametric smoothing; non-stationarity; recession prediction; interest rate spread; binary response models.;

   Abstract : Business cycles, the ups and downs observed somewhat simultaneously in numerous macroeconomic variables in an economy and often measured using real GDP, are important and, despite much economic research, still incom- pletely understood. Dating the business cycle has always been of interest in macroeconomic research. READ MORE

6. 4. On the Treatment of Flow in Traffic Safety Analysis, - a non-parametric approach applied on vulnerable road users

   Author : Lars Ekman; Trafik och väg; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Social sciences; Samhällsvetenskaper; Teknik; Technological sciences; safety performance function; accuracy; simulation; bootstrap; bicyclist; pedestrian; risk; Traffic Safety; accident rate;

   Abstract : The treatment of flow in the area of traffic safety has a long tradition. The influence flow has on the number of accidents is, however, often considered so obvious that it tends to be trivial. In this thesis I can show that the relation between flow and accidents holds interesting information. READ MORE

7. 5. Model-based and matched-filterbank signal analysis

   Author : Andreas Jakobsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-parametric spectral estimation; efficient implementations; array processing; parameter estimation; identifiability; subspace fitting; Signal processing; Signalbehandling; Signal Processing; Signalbehandling;

   Abstract : The dissertation deals with model-based and matched-filterbank signal analysis. The matched-filterbank (MAFI) spectral estimation approach is introduced, and it is shown that both the amplitude spectrum Capon (ASC) and the amplitude and phase estimation (APES) spectral estimators can be expressed as MAFI spectral estimators.
