1. 1. Does industry survey data improve GDP forecasting?

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

   Author : Oscar Andersson; Ludvig Fornstedt; [2024-03-06]
   Keywords : Bayesian; BVAR; Forecasting; GDP; survey data;

   Abstract : This study assesses the integration of industry survey data into Bayesian Vector Auto Regressive (BVAR) models for GDP forecasting in Sweden. Analyzing a combination of macro economic indicators, CPI and unemployment rates, with survey data from NIER, it explores the effects of different variable combinations on the forecasting ability of different models.

3. 2. Variational AutoEncoders and Differential Privacy : balancing data synthesis and privacy constraints

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

   Author : Baptiste Bremond; [2024]
   Keywords : TVAE; Differential privacy; Tabular data; Synthetic data; DP-SGD; TVAE; differentiell integritet; tabelldata; syntetiska data; DP-SGD;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates the effectiveness of Tabular Variational Auto Encoders (TVAEs) in generating high-quality synthetic tabular data and assesses their compliance with differential privacy principles. The study shows that while TVAEs are better than VAEs at generating synthetic data that faithfully reproduces the distribution of real data as measured by the Synthetic Data Vault (SDV) metrics, the latter does not guarantee that the synthetic data is up to the task in practical industrial applications.

4. 3. The active phase of Pt(110) during catalytic CO oxidation

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

   Author : Hira Qazilbash; [2024]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : CO oxidation is an important topic in heterogeneous catalysis, due to its role in industrial processes such as pollution reduction in the auto industry, and ethanol or other fuel production. In the automotive catalytic converters CO oxidation reduces the poisonous CO to CO2 by reacting with O2. READ MORE

5. 4. Experiencing Lockrop : A phenomenological approach to contemporary practice of Swedish herding calls

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för musikvetenskap

   Author : Elizabeth Carlyon; [2023]
   Keywords : herding calls; folk music; lockrop; forest; nature; ethnography; music; ethnomusicology; phenomenology; performance; well-being; performance anxiety; aesthetics; interview; participant-observation; autoethnography; kulning; Sweden; musical practice;

   Abstract : The purpose of this master’s thesis is to gain knowledge and understand of contemporary lockrop(Swedish herding calls) practices from the perspectives of those who engage with it. It aims to dothis by paying close attention to the nuanced phenomenological aspects that may shape experiencewithin the moment in which practice occurs. READ MORE

6. 5. Effects of phosphorylation on the ADP-ribosylation activity of PARP16

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

   Author : Virginia Martín Cristóbal; [2023]
   Keywords : ADP-ribosylation; Kinases; PARP16; Phosphorylation; UPR biochemistry; Biochemistry; Chemistry;

   Abstract : PARP16/ARTD15 is an intracellular mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase that catalyzes auto- and heteromodification by transfer of a single ADP-ribose moiety. It belongs to the ADP-ribosyltransferase (ART) superfamily. READ MORE
