  1. 21. Semi-Supervised Domain Adaptation for Pick Classification in Pick and Place Machines

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

    Author : Mitra Strandberg; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Pick and Place (PnP) machines collect and use large amounts of image data of Printed Circuit Board (PCB) components. The data is used to train automated image analysis methods to improve the decisions in the mounting process. Previous work with Neural Networks has shown promising results in the classification of the component status. READ MORE

  2. 22. Measuring the Risk-neutral Probability Distribution of Equity Index Options

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Produktionsekonomi

    Author : Gustav Dackner; Linus Falk; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The focus of this master thesis is to develop a model that measures the risk-neutral probability distributionof the future value of a portfolio consisting of options on the S&P 500 index. The cornerstone of the model is an explicit and thorough construction of the local volatility surface. The parametric model of Coleman etal. READ MORE

  3. 23. Bidding models for bond market auctions

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Kristofer Engman; [2019]
    Keywords : Auction; winner s curse; request for quote; RFQ; statistics; applied mathematics; financial mathematics; bond; e-auction; fixed income; skew exponential power; mifid II; pricing; Budgivning; winner s curse; request for quote; RFQ; statistik; tillämpad matematik; finansiell matematik; obligation; e-auktion; fixed income; skew exponential power; mifid II; prissättning;

    Abstract : In this study, we explore models for optimal bidding in auctions on the bond market using data gathered from the Bloomberg Fixed Income Trading platform and MIFID II reporting. We define models that aim to fulfill two purposes. The first is to hit the best competitor price, such that a dealer can win the trade with the lowest possible margin. READ MORE

  4. 24. Robustness of a neural network used for image classification : The effect of applying distortions on adversarial examples

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Datavetenskap

    Author : Rasmus Östberg; [2018]
    Keywords : LeNet; Distorted Images; MNIST; Adversarial Examples;

    Abstract : Powerful classifiers as neural networks have long been used to recognise images; these images might depict objects like animals, people or plain text. Distorted images affect the neural network's ability to recognise them, they might be distorted or changed due to distortions related to the camera. READ MORE

  5. 25. Distribution of stresses and displacements in skewed concrete slabs

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Eman Ismail; [2017]
    Keywords : Skew Slab; Finite Element Analysis; FEM; slab behavior;

    Abstract : A 3D nonlinear finite element analysis was developed for simulating the behavior of skewed concrete slabs and to identify the response of the slab with different angles and element sizes. The purpose of this research is helping the engineering and construction industry to utilize the FEM study and results more in different structural applications. READ MORE
