1. 1. Robustness Analysis of Perfusion Parameter Calculations

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

   Author : Alicia Palmér; [2024]
   Keywords : Perfusion; Medical image analysis; Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Tofts model; Functional imaging; Optimization; T1 map; Perfusion; Medicinsk bildanalys; Dynamisk kontrastförstärkt magnetisk resonanstomografibildtagning; Tofts-modell; Funktionell bildbehandling; Optimering; T1 karta;

   Abstract : Cancer is one of the most common causes of death worldwide. When given optimal treatment, however, the risk of severe illness may greatly be reduced. Determining optimal treatment in turn requires evaluation of disease progression and response to potential, previous treatment. READ MORE

3. 2. A Novel Method for Measuring Low Energy Excitations with BLS

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialfysik

   Author : Christopher Borchert; [2024]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This report presents the work done on an optical setup combining Raman and BLS spectroscopy and discusses the achieved improvements of the system. After some general optimization and minor redesigning, a new alternative beam path was implemented. READ MORE

4. 3. Ventilation for reduced indoor spread of Covid 19 and similar diseases : A literature review focusing on hospital environments

   University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

   Author : Cyrus Ourak Pour; [2023]
   Keywords : COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2; Ventilation system; Mixing ventilation MV ; Displacement ventilation DV ; Under floor air distribution UFAD ; Ultraviolet light UV ; HEPA filter; COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2; Ventilationssystem; Blandningsventilation; Deplacementventilation; Luftfördelning under golv; Ultraviolett ljus; HEPA-filter;

   Abstract : Today, a significant portion of individuals’ time is spent indoors, estimated at approximately 90% of their total time. This raises concerns about the transmission of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) instigating Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and similar viruses and highlights the critical role of ventilation systems in indoor environments, which this study aims to investigate.

5. 4. Robust Portfolio Optimization with Correlation Penalties

   University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Pelle Nydahl; [2023]
   Keywords : Portfolio Optimization; Portfolio Allocation; Robust Optimization; Correlation; Risk Factor Model; EMA Filtering; Weighted Linear Regression; Portföljoptimering; Portföljallokering; Robust optimering; Korrelation; Riskfaktor-modell; EMA-filtrering; Viktad linjär regression;

   Abstract : Robust portfolio optimization models attempt to address the standard optimization method's high sensitivity to noise in the parameter estimates, by taking an investor's uncertainty about the estimates into account when finding an optimal portfolio. In this thesis, we study robust variations of an extension of the mean-variance problem, where an additional term penalizing the portfolio's correlation with an exogenous return sequence is included in the objective.

6. 5. Energy-Efficient Fixed-Coefficient FIR Filters for Millimeter-Wave Radios

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

   Author : Erik Lundell; Gustav Molin; [2023]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : With the introduction of millimeter-wave antenna arrays in 5G base-stations and ever-increasing data volumes, the power consumption of the signal processing in digital radio systems has increased over the last decade. This, combined with increased cost and environmental awareness, has put focus on power optimization. READ MORE
