  2. 11. Modelling and Inference for Spatio-Temporal Marked Point Processes

    Author : Ottmar Cronie; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asymptotic normality; Consistency; Cox-Ingersoll-Ross process; Diffusion process; Edge correction; Goodness-of-fit; Richards growth function; Growth-interaction process; Immigration-death process; Least squares estimation; Markov process; Maximum likelihood estimation; Open-growth; Spatio-temporal marked point process; Stationarity; Stochastic differential equation; Transition density; Asymptotic normality;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with inference problems related to the growth-interaction process (GI-process). The GI-process is a continuous time spatio-temporal point process with dynamic interacting marks (closed disks), in which the immigration-death process (ID-process) controls the arrivals of new marked points as well as their potential life-times.

  4. 12. The relationship between orthology, protein domain architecture and protein function

    Author : Kristoffer Forslund; Erik Sonnhammer; Cristina Al-Khalili Szigyarto; Sarah Teichmann; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; homology; orthology; paralogy; gene duplications; protein function prediction; low-complexity regions; protein domains; domain architecture evolution; introns; intron position conservation; orthology conjecture; domain grammar hypothesis; biokemi; inriktning teoretisk kemi; Biochemistry with Emphasis on Theoretical Chemistry;

    Abstract : Lacking experimental data, protein function is often predicted from evolutionary and protein structure theory. Under the 'domain grammar' hypothesis the function of a protein follows from the domains it encodes. READ MORE

  5. 13. Probabilistic Reconciliation Analysis for Genes and Pseudogenes

    Author : Owais Mahmudi; Jens Lagergren; Cedric Chauve; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Phylogenetics; Evolution; Reconciliation Analysis; Bayesian Inference; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Abstract : Phylogeneticists have studied the evolution of life from single celled organisms to the astonishing biodiversity around us for a long time now. The relationship between species is often expressed as a binary tree - the tree of life. READ MORE

  6. 14. Genetic factors affecting pregnancy duration in humans

    Author : Jonas Bacelis; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; genomics; GWAS; Mendelian randomization; causal inference; preterm birth; pregnancy; gestation; height; text mining;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the mechanisms behind human pregnancy duration. Too short gestation is a direct cause of perinatal, neonatal, and infant mortality. Deviation from normal pregnancy length is also associated with a child's morbidity, even in the adulthood. READ MORE

  7. 15. Estimation of hazard ratios from observational data with applications related to stroke

    Author : Guilherme Barros; Jenny Häggström; Marie Eriksson; Daniel Nevo; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; survival analysis; causal inference; hazard ratios; marginal hazard ratio; stroke; balancing; Statistics; statistik;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to examine some challenges that may emerge when conducting time-to-event studies based on observational data. Time-to-event (also called survival) is a setting that involves analyzing how different factors may influence the length of time until an individual experiences the event of interest. READ MORE
