  1. 1. Stock market analysis with a Markovian approach: Properties and prediction of OMXS30

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Max Aronsson; Anna Folkesson; [2023]
    Keywords : Markov chain; OMXS30; Markov chain properties; voting ensemble model; markovkedja; OMXS30; egenskaper hos markovkedjor; ensemble-modell;

    Abstract : This paper investigates how Markov chain modelling can be applied to the Swedish stock index OMXS30. The investigation is two-fold. Firstly, a Markov chain is based on index data from recent years, where properties such as transition matrix, stationary distribution and hitting time are studied. READ MORE

  4. 3. A Statistical Approach to Understand the Evolution of Exotic Butterfly Species

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Elin Eliasson; Rebecka Haraldsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Phylogenetics; Tree reconstruction; COI barcoding; General Time Reversible Model; K80 Model; Evolution; Butterflies; Fylogenetik; Rekonstruktion av träd; COI barcoding; General Time Reversible modell; K80 modell; Evolution; Fjärilar;

    Abstract : The alarming rate at which we see the decline in biodiversity due to human activity has raised concerns about the well-being of our planet. Butterflies which serve as pollinators are an essential part of many ecosystems and sensitive indicators of environmental changes and can provide valuable insight into how ecosystems function and evolve.

  5. 4. Perron-Frobenius' Theory and Applications

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Algebra, geometri och diskret matematik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Karl Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Positive matrices; nonnegative matrices; Perron-Frobenius; linear dynamical systems; Leslie matrices; Markov chain; Google s PageRank algorithm; Positiva matriser; icke-negativa matriser; Perron-Frobenius; linjära dynamiska system; Leslie matris; Markov-kedja; Google s PageRank algoritm;

    Abstract : This is a literature study, in linear algebra, about positive and nonnegative matrices and their special properties. We say that a matrix or a vector is positive/nonnegative if all of its entries are positive/nonnegative. First, we study some generalities and become acquainted with two types of nonnegative matrices; irreducible and reducible. READ MORE

  6. 5. Dynamic Covariance Modelling Using Generalised Wishart Processes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Fredrik Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Covariance matrix; generalised Wishart process; Bayesian inference; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Hamiltonian Monte Carlo; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Modern portfolio theory was pioneered by Markowitz who formulated the mean-variance problem, without which any discussion on quantitative approaches to portfolio selection would be incomplete. The framework boils down to finding the expected return $\mu$ and covariance $\Sigma$, after which the solution is proportional to $\Sigma^{-1}\mu$. READ MORE
