  4. 3. Asymptotics of beta-Hermite Ensembles

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Matematisk statistik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Filip Berglund; [2020]
    Keywords : beta-Hermite ensembles; Gaussian ensembles; empirical distribution function; level density; largest eigenvalue; order statistic; Sturm sequence; Hermite polynomials; beta-Hermite ensemblerna; gaussiska ensemblerna; empiriska fördelningsfunktionen; nivåtäthet; största egenvärdet; ordningsstatiska; Sturmföljder; Hermitepolynom;

    Abstract : In this thesis we present results about some eigenvalue statistics of the beta-Hermite ensembles, both in the classical cases corresponding to beta = 1, 2, 4, that is the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (consisting of real symmetric matrices), the Gaussian unitary ensemble (consisting of complex Hermitian matrices) and the Gaussian symplectic ensembles (consisting of quaternionic self-dual matrices) respectively. We also look at the less explored general beta-Hermite ensembles (consisting of real tridiagonal symmetric matrices). READ MORE

  5. 4. Crucial Parameters for Additive Manufacturing of Metals : A Study in Quality Improvement

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Lina Berglund; Filip Ivarsson; Marcus Rostmark; [2019]
    Keywords : Additive manufacturing; Production parameters; Sandvik; Quality improvement; Selective laser melting; Powder bed fusion; Process control;

    Abstract : Production by Additive Manufacturing creates opportunities to make customized products in small batches with less material than in traditional manufacturing. It is more sustainable and suitable for niche products, but entails new production demands to ensure quality. READ MORE

  6. 5. Simplifying interaction on mobile devices using context-aware computing

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Author : Jakob Berglund; Filip Lindqvist; [2015]
    Keywords : User-Experience; Adaptive User Interface; Context-Awareness; Handheld Computing; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates how context-awareness and learning from user patterns could improve the user interaction for a smartphone applica- tion that can control the computer and home and how it could create a smarter more personal experience. It looks at both how a existing cus- tomers would react in three different experiments (a survey, interviews and a prototype of the application), and how non-users would like an application that could control their home with respect to context- awareness.
