  3. 2. 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.

  4. 3. Estimating stellar limb darkening using exoplanet transits

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

    Author : Sora Ishida; [2023]
    Keywords : Limb-darkening; CHEOPS; Transit; Exoplanet; PYCHEOPS; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The brightness of the stars is not uniform over the surface as it varies depending on the wavelength and the atmosphere that the light propagates. Limb darkening is an optical effect caused by a decrease in brightness of the star towards the edge. READ MORE

  5. 4. Supervised classification for human movement data : A comparative study of functional and traditional methods

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Statistik

    Author : Markus Lindvall; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Functional data analysis (FDA) has a growing importance in statistics, especially in disciplines like biomechanics, where it is common to observe data over time. The objective of this thesis is to employ FDA techniques and compare the classification performance of supervised classification models utilizing functional data with the same models using a discrete summary measurement (max-values) as input.

  6. 5. Effects of stratospheric wildfire smoke on ozone depleting substances and ozone levels in the northern midlatitudes

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

    Author : Christopher Grüner; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The goal of this project was to examine whether there are correlations between recent wildfires in the northern hemisphere and stratospheric ozone anomalies in the midlatitudes following the creation of ozone depleting substances. To achieve this goal, data from the Aura satellite's Microwave Limb Sounder instrument was used and processed with self-written Python scripts. READ MORE
