  1. 1. Active stabilisation of a micro-sized fibre cavity using tilt locking to enable quantum operations on single ions

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

    Author : Jannek Hansen; [2021]
    Keywords : Quantum computation; optical cavity; microcavity; locking; tilt locking; cavity stabilization; Gaussian-Hermitian modes; quantum computer; higher-order transverse modes; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the tilt locking scheme is applied to create an error signal that monitors length changes in a fibre-based microcavity. To find a robust and precise locking technique is an essential step towards quantum operations on single rare-earth ions doped in microcrystals. Quantum computing and information is a frontier of modern physics. READ MORE

  2. 2. Option Pricing using Artificial Neural Networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Jan Müller; [2021]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Neural networks have an increasingly important role in the financial market, by offering a solution to stationarity and non-linearity whilst also providing robustness and predictive power. Options and option pricing are a fundamental area of interest in the daily activities of investment banks, hedge funds and trading firms in the financial market. READ MORE

  3. 3. Estimation of Red Blood Cell-Count using Neural Networks

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

    Author : David Andersson; [2020]
    Keywords : Artificial neural networks; ANN; Convolutional neural networks; CNN; Red Blood Cells; Hematology; Image analysis; Regression; Malaria; Counting; Automation; Microscopy; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Quantification through image analysis is used in a multitude of fields, and often requires algorithms tailored to the specific task and object that needs to be quantified. The need for flexibility means that such segmentation algorithms are quickly becoming outdated with the advent of convolutional neural networks, which can be trained to fit the specific requirements of the user.

  4. 4. Patterning of the neural tube: A 3D computational modelling approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Ariane Ernst; [2019]
    Keywords : gene regulatory networks; neural tube patterning; patterning of the neural tube; dopaminergic neurons; parkinson s disease; computational modelling; stem cell; GRN; Biology and Life Sciences; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s can be treated with stem-cell derived specialized neurons. In order to achieve precise directed neural differentiation in vitro we need to understand the gene regulatory mechanisms behind in vivo neural tube patterning. READ MORE

  5. 5. Spatially Coupled Codes in Turbo Equalization

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Mgeni Makambi Mashauri; [2019]
    Keywords : Turbo equalization; spatial coupling; waterfall versus error floor; codes on graphs; iterative receivers; LDPC codes in turbo equalization; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this thesis we investigate the application of spatial coupling in turbo equalization. We show that with spatial coupling we can have a fresh perspective on the trade-off between performance in the waterfall and error floor region often encountered in the choice of codes for turbo equalization.
