  1. 16. Movement patterns and displacement of a soil insect

    Author : Elna Nilsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; attraction; repellence; fatty acid; Ecology; Ekologi; alarm; autoregressive model; autocorrelation; random walk; Protaphorura armata; Collembola; migration; dispersal; movement; displacement;

    Abstract : Movement and dispersal are important determinants of the spatial distribution and persistence of animal populations in a heterogeneous environment. I studied the small-scale movement pattern of a soil-living insect, Protaphorura armata (Collembola) by using a video-equipment. READ MORE

  2. 17. Fluctuations of smooth linear statistics of determinantal point processes

    Author : Lambert Gaultier; Kurt Johansson; Igor Krasovsky; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : We study eigenvalues of unitary invariant random matrices and other de-terminantal point processes. Paper A investigates some generalizations ofthe Gaussian Unitary Ensemble which are motivated by the physics of freefermions. READ MORE

  3. 18. Quantum properties of light and matter in one dimension

    Author : Axel Gagge; Jonas Larson; Jack Lidmar; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis concerns topics in non-interacting and interacting quantum physics in one dimension. We present the notions of Wannier functions and tight-binding models. Quantum walks are discussed, quantum mechanical analogues to random walks. READ MORE

  4. 19. On Importance Sampling and Dependence Modeling

    Author : Jens Svensson; Boualem Djehiche; Thomas Mikosch; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers. In the first paper, Monte Carlo simulation for tail probabilities of heavy-tailed random walks is considered. Importance sampling algorithms are constructed by using mixtures of the original distribution with some other state-dependent distributions. READ MORE

  5. 20. Study on Decentralized Machine Learning and Applications to Wireless Caching Networks

    Author : Yu Ye; Ming Xiao; Zhu Han; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Distributed multi-task learning; decentralized optimization; ADMM; mobility-aware wireless caching; Distribuerat lärande med flera uppgifter; decentraliserad optimering; ADMM; mobilitetsmedveten trådlös cache; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : To promote the development of distributed machine learning, it is crucial to provide efficient models and training algorithms. This thesis is devoted to the design of distributed multi-task learning and decentralized algorithms, as well as the application of distributed machine learning in wireless caching networks. READ MORE
