1. 1. Feature Selection for Microarray Data via Stochastic Approximation

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

   Author : Erik Rosvall; [2024-03-18]
   Keywords : feature selection; feature ranking; microarray data; stochastic approximation; Barzilai and Borwein method; Machine Learning; AI;

   Abstract : This thesis explores the challenge of feature selection (FS) in machine learning, which involves reducing the dimensionality of data. The selection of a relevant subset of features from a larger pool has demonstrated its effectiveness in enhancing the performance of various machine learning algorithms. READ MORE

3. 2. Energy efficiency and fiscal incentives : A stochastic frontier analysis of Swedish manufacturing sectors 2008-2020

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

   Author : William Blombäck; [2024]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis is a case study of the Swedish manufacturing industry in which I measure how efficiently each sector uses energy (fuel and electricity) as input goods in their production processes, and how significant the impact of Sweden’s energy tax is in regard to energy efficiency. The purpose of this is to analyze energy security and preparedness for short-term demand shocks for electricity, as many ‘mega-investments’ of industrial nature are being planned in Sweden – which are predicted to require the installed capacity of Sweden’s electricity production to almost double by 2045.

   Keywords : Employee growth; SaaS Industries; Profitability; Technical efficiency; Stochastic Frontier Analysis; Marginal Product of Labor; Panel data Models;

   Abstract : Background: High-tech's rapid growth and prioritization of expansion over profitability can lead to vulnerability in economic downturns. The SaaS market, a part of the high-tech industry, offers affordable and flexible software solutions but is also susceptible to market volatility. READ MORE

6. 5. Towards a Stochastic Operation of Switzerland’s Power Grid

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Alban Maury; [2023]
   Keywords : Monte-Carlo simulations; probabilistic forecasting; copula theory; power flow analysis; Monte Carlo-simuleringar; probabilistiska prognoser; kopulateori; analys av energiflöden;

   Abstract : As Europe’s power production becomes increasingly reliant on intermittent renewable energy sources, uncertainties are likely to arise in power generation plans. Similarly, with the growing prevalence of electric vehicles, electric demand is also becoming more uncertain. READ MORE
