1. 21. The design of the optical touchpointer system for brain tumorresections : The electrical system design

   University essay from Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

   Author : Zhiyuan Xie; [2014]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and aggressive form of brain malignancy. The morphological similarities of the malignant and the surrounding tissue cause difficulties in distinguishing the tumors during surgery. READ MORE

3. 22. Pricing and Hedging using Hedge Monte-Carlo Method

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Arzu Eski; [2014]
   Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : In this master’s thesis The Hedge Monte-Carlo method (HMC) is evaluated. The HMC method is used to price financial derivatives and at the same time obtain optimal hedge portfolios. The optimal hedge is of great importance as it enables risk management in option trading. READ MORE

   Abstract : This thesis describes a system developed for assisting Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) brain tumor surgery. The thesis starts with providing some facts of GBM tumor, and introduces some traditional diagnostic methods and their short comes. In the later chapters, the system development details and some tests for the system performances are described.. READ MORE

5. 24. Development of a novel combined fluorescence and reflectance spectroscopy system for guiding high-grade glioma resections

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Monirehalsadat Mousavi; [2013]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Total resection of glioblastoma multiform (GBM), the most common and aggressive malignant brain tumor, continues to be a challenge. Achieving complete resection is limited by difficulty in intraoperative discrimination between normal and residual tumor cells. READ MORE

6. 25. Structured Products Modelled as Stochastic Processes

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Fredrik Nordin; [2013]
   Keywords : Auto-call; GBM; GARCH; Structured products; Sprinter; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the value of the two composed financial products (structured products), sprinters and auto-calls, are studied and compared to the European call option. The study is preformed using both analytical and numerical solutions, where the underlying is either said to follow a GBM-process (Geometric Brownian Motion) or a GARCH-process (Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity).
