3. 7. Self-supervised representation learning from electrocardiogram data for medical applications

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

   Author : Matilda Andersson; [2023]
   Keywords : Self-supervised learning; Deep learning; Cardiovascular disease; Electrocardiogram; ECG; SimCLR; BYOL; VICReg; Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, increasing yearly. However, many abnormalities in heart cycles can be discovered and treated years before the onset of diseases. But in most societies, regular health checkups are a concept reserved for cars, not humans. READ MORE

4. 8. Discussion of Python Implementation Techniques for Discontinuous Galerkin Methods

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); Lunds universitet/Matematikcentrum

   Author : Ulf Vestberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Best approximation; Orthogonal polynomials; Legendre polynomials; Integration; Full tensor product; Sum-factorization; Dune; Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : This paper discusses implementation techniques for integration methods within the Discontinuous Galerkin Methods. These methods are used to approximate solutions for differential equations. To do so, one must compute a polynomial, which is an approximation of the used function. READ MORE

5. 9. Evaluating the Effect of Meta-Labeling on Equity Market Neutral Strategy

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionen

   Author : Niclas Wölner-Hanssen; [2023]
   Keywords : Meta-Labeling; Probabilistic Sharpe Ratio; Equity Market Neutral; Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : This thesis aims to construct an Equity Market Neutral (EMN) strategy framework to predict intraday excess returns of stocks within the S&P 500 index by utilizing machine learning techniques proposed by (López de Prado, 2018). The constructed EMN strategies within the framework utilizes techniques such as Stacked Single Feature Importance (SSFI), sample weighting, Probabilistic Sharpe Ratio (PSR), and meta-labeling.

6. 10. Elastic Net Regression for Prosthesis Control in Short Residual Limb Amputees: Performance and Generalizability

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Oskar Berg; [2023]
   Keywords : Neuroengineering; Statistics; Biomedical Signal Processing; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This Master's thesis in Biomedical Engineering investigates the performance and generalizability of linear regression models in context of prosthesis control for short residual limb amputees. This thesis uses intramuscular electromyography data, and a regression and emplys a regression technique called Elastic Net Regression - a technique that combines L1 and L2-regularization - to predict 1-DOF isometric forces outputs from fingers and the wrist.
