  1. 1. Tau-Leaping Implementations outside of chemistry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Lotta Kornö; [2024]
    Keywords : Tau leaping; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Tau-leaping is an algorithm for model simulations most often used in kinetic chemistry. It was created to make simulations more efficient at the cost of some accuracy. However, its uses outside of chemistry are limited but could help make some model simulations more efficient. READ MORE

  2. 2. Detection and quantification of post-translational modifications in non-invasive samples : Phosphoproteins as biomarkers and a market analysis of protein quantification technologies

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Sammi Baudin; Hillevi Fjellström; Aron Kraft; Erica Lamberg; Måns Rosenbaum; Hanna Sjöstrand; [2023]
    Keywords : Phorphorylation; Proteomics; Biomarkers; Phosphoproteins; PTM; Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; ALS; Alzheimer s disease; Parkinson s disease; Cancer; xMAP; SIMOA; NULISA; PEA; ELISA; Mass spectrometry; SomaScan;

    Abstract : Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins can be a sign and/or cause of disease. These modified proteins have the potential to be used as biomarkers for diagnostic purposes. However, research in the field is limited. READ MORE

  3. 3. Event categorisation and Machine-learning Techniques in Searches for Higgs Boson Pairs in the ATLAS Experiment at the LHC

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Milads Emadi; [2023]
    Keywords : Particle Physics; ATLAS; BDT; Boosted Decision Tree; Decision Tree; Optimization; Machine Learning; Analysis;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the pair production of Higgs bosons (di-Higgs events) at the ATLAS experiment in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), focusing on the channel where one Higgs boson decays into two bottom quarks and the other decays into two tau leptons. The main objective was to determine whether introducing a split in the invariant mass of the decay products from the two Higgs bosons (the di-Higgs mass) and using this as an analysis variable improves the sensitivity of the Boosted Decision Tree (BDT) machine learning algorithm to the di-Higgs signal.

  4. 4. Characterization of familial Alzheimer’s disease using unsupervised learningalgorithmsA data analysis of Alzheimer’s disease cases

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Tim Littau; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Familial Alzheimer's Disease (FAD) is characterized by an early onset, cognitive impairment and dementia. Besides the symptomatic characterization, FAD shows an abundance of amyloid beta and tau protein in the patients' brains. READ MORE

  5. 5. Signatures of Dark Matter at the LHC : A phenomenological study combining collider and cosmological bounds to constrain a vector dark matter particle model

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Anton Olsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Dark matter; particle phenomenology; LHC; MadGraph; standard model; beyond standard model;

    Abstract : Everything that humans have ever touched, created or built something from consists of a type of matter that only makes up 15 percent of the total matter in the universe. The remaining 85 percent is attributed to dark matter, a so far not discovered and non-luminous type of matter. READ MORE
