2. 1. Optimal Design of Experiments for the Quadratic Logistic Model

   Author : Ellinor Fackle Fornius; Hans Nyquist; Christos Kitsos; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Logistic regression; D-optimality; c-optimality; Canonical design space; Maximum likelihood estimation; Sequential design; Stochastic approximation; Statistics; Statistik; statistik; Statistics;

   Abstract : Optimal design of experiments for binary data is the topic of this thesis. A particular logistic model including a quadratic term in the linear predictor is considered. Determining an optimal design for this model is complicated by the fact that the optimal design is dependent on the unknown true parameters. READ MORE

4. 2. Regression on high-dimensional predictor space : with application in chemometrics and microarray data

   Author : Arief Gusnanto; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Regression; near-infrared calibration; microarray; mixed model; logistic regression; random effects; variable selection; differential expression; mixture distribution;

   Abstract : This thesis focuses on regression methodology for prediction and classification in situations where there are many predictors but limited number of observations. This situation is common in chemometrics and microarray data. READ MORE

5. 3. Spatial modelling and simulation for disease surveillance

   Author : Mohammadreza Rajabi; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; GISgeografiska informationssystem; Agent Based Modeling; spatial epidemiology; machine learning;

   Abstract : This thesis addresses the application of spatial approaches to disease surveillance and control from three different aspects. First, temporal trends, geographical distribution and spatial pattern of cardiovascular disease admission rates were explored on a national level in Sweden. READ MORE

6. 4. The Urban Tapestry : Essays on the Relationship Between Social Networks and Residential Segregation

   Author : Laura Fürsich; Maria Brandén; Benjamin Jarvis; Sarah Valdez; Peter Rich; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Social networks; Segregation; Agent-based modeling; Social infrastructure; Residential choice; Analytical sociology; Register data;

   Abstract : Dominant explanations of segregation argue that patterns of spatial residential sorting are shaped by the aggregation of individual residential choices, guided by discrimination, differences in resources, and preference-based explanations of neighborhood ethnic composition. However, research on social networks indicates that social influence can serve as a driver of collective outcomes that result in social organization. READ MORE

7. 5. Head Injuries in Car-to-Pedestrian Accidents - Investigation of Head Impact Dynamics, Injury Mechanisms and Countermeasures

   Author : Jianfeng Yao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; accident analysis; head injury; head protection; mathematical simulation; accident reconstruction; injury mechanism; Pedestrian accident;

   Abstract : The aim of this study was to investigate head impact dynamics and to establish risk functions for head injuries by mathematical reconstructions of real-world car-to-pedestrian accidents. Furthermore, an attempt was made to develop an approach for the design and evaluation of head-protective devices. READ MORE
