  1. 11. Branching Out with Mixtures: Phylogenetic Inference That’s Not Afraid of a Little Uncertainty

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Ricky Molén; [2023]
    Keywords : Phylogeny; Bayesian analysis; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Variational inference; Mixture of proposal distributions; Fylogeni; Bayesiansk analys; Markov Chain Monte Carlo; Variationsinferens; Mixturer av förslagsfördelningar;

    Abstract : Phylogeny, the study of evolutionary relationships among species and other taxa, plays a crucial role in understanding the history of life. Bayesian analysis using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is a widely used approach for inferring phylogenetic trees, but it suffers from slow convergence in higher dimensions and is slow to converge.

  2. 12. Deep Learning Model Deployment for Spaceborne Reconfigurable Hardware : A flexible acceleration approach

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

    Author : Javier Ferre Martin; [2023]
    Keywords : Space Situational Awareness; Deep Learning; Convolutional Neural Networks; FieldProgrammable Gate Arrays; System-On-Chip; Computer Vision; Dynamic Partial Reconfiguration; High-Level Synthesis; Rymdsituationstänksamhet; Djupinlärning; Konvolutionsnätverk; Omkonfigurerbara Field-Programmable Gate Arrays FPGAs ; System-On-Chip SoC ; Datorseende; Dynamisk partiell omkonfigurering; Högnivåsyntes.;

    Abstract : Space debris and space situational awareness (SSA) have become growing concerns for national security and the sustainability of space operations, where timely detection and tracking of space objects is critical in preventing collision events. Traditional computer-vision algorithms have been used extensively to solve detection and tracking problems in flight, but recently deep learning approaches have seen widespread adoption in non-space related applications for their high accuracy.

  3. 13. The effect of autocorrelation when performing theapproximated permutation test

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Amerik Schouten; Linus Thor; [2023]
    Keywords : exchangeability assumption; Monte Carlo; temporal autocorrelation; type I error; simulation; re-sampling methods;

    Abstract : In meteorology, permutation tests are a commonly recommended tool because standard paramet-ric methods of inference often is insufficient when analysing weather. Therefore other methodswith less stringent assumptions like permutation testing is used. READ MORE

  4. 14. Reshoring in the Fashion Industry – An Actual Trend or Industry Window Dressing?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Author : Svante Gummesson; [2023]
    Keywords : Reshoring; Fashion industry; Fashion conglomerates; Supply Chain Management; Manufacturing Sustainability; Global supply chains; Manufacturing Location Decision; Inditex; H M Group; GAP Inc; Fast retailing; Gap Inc.; PVH; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : The research aims to determine whether there is a trend of reshoring among major fashion conglomerates and whether supply chain resilience and sustainable manufacturing may contribute to understanding this trend. The study takes a quantitative approach, using a combination of inference statistics and descriptive statistics. READ MORE

  5. 15. Predictive Modeling and Statistical Inference for CTA returns : A Hidden Markov Approach with Sparse Logistic Regression

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistik

    Author : Oskar Fransson; [2023]
    Keywords : Probability theory; Statistical inference; finance; CTA; managed futures; machine learning; statistical learning; stochastic process; sparse logistic regression; Markov Chain Monte Carlo; Hidden Markov model;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on predicting trends in Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs), also known as trend-following hedge funds. The paper applies a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) for classifying trends. Additionally, by incorporating additional features, a regularized logistic regression model is used to enhance prediction capability. READ MORE
