  1. 11. Regularization Methods and High Dimensional Data: A Comparative Study Based on Frequentist and Bayesian Methods

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Markus Gerholm; Johan Sörstadius; [2024]
    Keywords : Linear regression; high dimensional data; regularization; Bayesian methods; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : As the amount of high dimensional data becomes increasingly accessible and common, the need for reliable methods to combat problems such as overfitting and multicollinearity increases. Models need to be able to manage large data sets where predictor variables often outnumber the amount of observations. READ MORE

  3. 12. Quantum Optical Description of High-order Harmonic Generation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Isabel Moreno; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : High-order Harmonic Generation (HHG) is a highly non-linear process in which an atom interacts with a strong laser field. The laser field lowers the atomic potential barrier allowing bound electrons to escape into the continuum through tunnel ionization, propagate, and, with some probability, recombine with the parent ion.

  4. 13. A Comparative Investigation of Classical Random and Quantum Walks in Terms of Algorithms, Implementation, and Characteristics

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Naoki Moriya; [2024]
    Keywords : Qunatum computing; quantum walk;

    Abstract : In recent years, there has been a significant development in high performance computing, driven by advances in hardware and software technology. The performance of the computers to the present has improved in accordance with Moore’s law, on the other hand, it seems to be reaching the limits in the near future. READ MORE

  5. 14. The Impact of Soft-Close Auctions on Bid Behavior: A Randomised Controlled Experiment

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

    Author : Martin Kellgren; [2023-10-10]
    Keywords : Online Auctions; soft-close auctions; longer extension; randomised controlled experiment; private value; common value; seller’s revenue;

    Abstract : This thesis studies the effect of longer extensions on bidding behaviour in online auctions. The study uses a randomised controlled experiment through Pantbanken Sverige, a Swedish pawnbroker. The results indicate positive effects on the seller’s revenue due to longer extensions, although these effects were not statistically significant. READ MORE

  6. 15. A computational model of metapopulation dynamics and organism-mediated nutrient flow

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Amanda Hansson; [2023-08-07]
    Keywords : computational model; population dynamics; metapopulation dynamics; nutrient flow; simulation; spatially explicit; individual-based;

    Abstract : The aim of this project was to assess, using in-silico experiments, how different life history char-acteristics, such as age at maturity and dispersal ability of individuals, influence the dynamics of a metapopulation. To achieve this, a novel model of a spatially explicit metapopulation, with organ-ism-mediated nutrient flow between fragmented habitat patches, was implemented by means of computer simulations.
