  1. 1. Evaluation of Probabilistic Programming Frameworks

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Carl Munkby; [2022]
    Keywords : Computational statistics; Bayesian statistics; Probabilistic programming; Probabilistic modelling; Stan; TensorFlow Probability; Pyro; NumPyro; Markov Chain Monte Carlo; Hamiltonian Monte Carlo; NUTS;

    Abstract : In recent years significant progress has been made in the area of Probabilistic Programming, contributing to a considerably easier workflow for quantitative research in many fields. However, as new Probabilistic Programming Frameworks (PPFs) are continuously being created and developed, there is a need for finding ways of evaluating and benchmarking these frameworks. READ MORE

  3. 2. Stochastic EM for generic topic modeling using probabilistic programming

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Robin Saberi Nasseri; [2021]
    Keywords : SEM; topic model; probabilistic programming; LDA; DMR; TFP;

    Abstract : Probabilistic topic models are a versatile class of models for discovering latent themes in document collections through unsupervised learning. Conventional inferential methods lack the scaling capabilities necessary for extensions to large-scale applications. READ MORE

  4. 3. Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) estimation using Probabilistic Graphical Models

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Zara Jackson; [2019]
    Keywords : Basal Metabolic Rate; Resting Metabolic Rate; Dynamic Bayesian Networks; Temporal Models; Food Tracking; Calories; Obesity; Pymc3; Probabilistic Programming;

    Abstract : Obesity is a growing problem globally. Currently 2.3 billion adults are overweight, and this number is rising. The most common method for weight loss is calorie counting, in which to lose weight a person should be in a calorie deficit. READ MORE

  5. 4. Interacting Particle Inferencefor Probabilistic Programming in Haskell

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Per Engström; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Probabilistic programming shows much promise as a declarative way to define statistical models, but inference is often expensive. A parallelisable particle Markovchain Monte Carlo sampler is implemented in Haskell and the domain-specific language Monad-Bayes. READ MORE

  6. 5. Strategic Battery Storage Integration into the Swedish Power Market

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Marius Lasse Kopiez; Kristofer Eidner Låås; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Omställningen mot fler förnyelsebara energikällor inom det svenska elsystemet innebär en större del variabel elproduktion. Detta ställer krav på en hög flexibilitet såsom att flytta energi i tiden där energilagring har en hög nyttjandegrad eftersom att det kan användas både för producent samt förbrukare. READ MORE
