1. A perfect score : Validity arguments for college admission tests
Abstract : College admission tests are of great importance for admissions systems in general and for candidates in particular. The SweSAT (Högskoleprovet in Swedish) has been used for college admission in Sweden for more than 30 years, and today it is alongside with the upper-secondary school GPA the most widely used instrument for selection of college applicants.

2. Analysis of ICP pulsatility and CSF dynamics : the pulsatility curve and effects of postural changes, with implications for idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus
Abstract : The volume defined by the rigid cranium is shared by the brain, blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). With every heartbeat the arterial blood volume briefly increases and venous blood and CSF are forced out of the cranium, leading to pulsatility in CSF flow and intracranial pressure (ICP). READ MORE

3. Predictive model of perceived driving stability at high speeds under aerodynamic excitations
Abstract : The automotive industry is continuously advancing towards more energy-efficient vehicle designs. Streamlined vehicles have low aerodynamic drag but have the potential to be unstable when exposed to external excitations such as unsteady aerodynamic forces created by the flow of air around them.

4. Predictability in Equity Markets: Estimation and Inference
Abstract : The thesis consists of three chapters dealing with predictability in equity markets. The first chapter analyses predictive regressions in a predictive system framework, where the predictor is an imperfect proxy for the expected returns. READ MORE

5. Toward Predictive Maintenance in a Cloud Manufacturing Environment : A population-wide approach
Abstract : The research presented in this thesis is focused on improving industrial maintenance by using better decision support that is based on a wider range of input information. The core objective is to research how to integrate information from a population of similar monitored objects. READ MORE
