  1. 11. Branching Out with Mixtures: Phylogenetic Inference That’s Not Afraid of a Little Uncertainty

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Ricky Molén; [2023]
    Keywords : Phylogeny; Bayesian analysis; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Variational inference; Mixture of proposal distributions; Fylogeni; Bayesiansk analys; Markov Chain Monte Carlo; Variationsinferens; Mixturer av förslagsfördelningar;

    Abstract : Phylogeny, the study of evolutionary relationships among species and other taxa, plays a crucial role in understanding the history of life. Bayesian analysis using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is a widely used approach for inferring phylogenetic trees, but it suffers from slow convergence in higher dimensions and is slow to converge.

  3. 12. Collaborative Mapping with Drone Swarms Utilizing Relative Distance Measurements

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Johan Forsman; Carl Tidén; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The field of use for unmanned aerial vehicles, UAVs, has completely exploded in the last decade. Today they are used for surveillance missions and inspecting places that are difficult for people to access. To increase the efficiency and robustness in the execution of these types of missions, swarms of cooperating drones can be used. READ MORE

  4. 13. Randomized Diagonal Estimation

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Niclas Joshua Popp; [2023]
    Keywords : Diagonal estimation; randomized numerical linear algebra; low-rank approximation; matrix functions; Diagonalestimering; randomiserad numerisk linjär algebra; lågrankad approximation; matrisfunktioner;

    Abstract : Implicit diagonal estimation is a long-standing problem that is concerned with approximating the diagonal of a matrix that can only be accessed through matrix-vector products. It is of interest in various fields of application, such as network science, material science and machine learning. READ MORE

  5. 14. Proficient speakers : A literature review on what it means to be orally proficient as a speaker of English

    University essay from Jönköping University/Högskolan för lärande och kommunikation

  6. 15. Using Quality Diversity in Genetic Programming to Improve Automatic Learning of Behaviour Trees

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

    Author : Alexander Willemsen; [2023]
    Keywords : Behaviour Trees; Genetic Programming; Quality Diversity; Gedragsbomen; Genetische Programmering; Kwaliteitsdiversiteit; Beteendeträd; Genetisk Programmering; Kvalitetsmångfald;

    Abstract : One of the main purposes of the fields of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence is to develop solutions that can autonomously solve problems. An important part of this is synthesising behaviours of robots. Behaviour Trees are a tree structure that enables combining existing lower level behaviours into a high level behaviour through task switching. READ MORE
