1. Point process learning for non-parametric intensity estimation with focus on Voronoi estimation
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för matematiska vetenskaperAbstract : Point process learning is a new statistical theory that gives us a way to estimate parameters using cross-validation for point processes. By thinning a point pattern we are able to create training and validation sets which are then used in prediction errors. READ MORE

2. Failure Probability and Lifetime Estimation for Industrial Robots : A Logistic Regression and Lifetime Analysis Approach
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistikAbstract : The ability to handle and process data for information extraction is getting more and more important. Using extracted data from the business to improve productivity is seen as an important part in developing the business processes. In this thesis, industrial robots and their survival times are analyzed. READ MORE

3. Robust Non-Linear State Estimation for Underwater Acoustic Localization : Expanding on Gaussian Mixture Methods
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Robust state estimation solutions must deal with faulty measurements, called outliers, and unknown data associations, which lead to multiple feasible hypotheses. Take, for instance, the scenario of tracking two indistinguishable targets based on position measurements, where each measurement could refer to either of the targets or even be a faulty reading.

4. Forecasting Value-at-Risk and Expected Shortfall: A comparison of non- and parametric methods for crude oil amidst extreme volatility
University essay from Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionenAbstract : Practitioners primarily utilise nonparametric methods when estimating Value-at- Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) for computing capital requirements. However, various researchers assert that there are issues with those estimates, particularly amidst periods of market turmoil. READ MORE

5. Assessing the Eco-efficiency of Swedish Crop Farms and the Role of Subsidies : a Directional Distance Function Approach
University essay from SLU/Dept. of EconomicsAbstract : The agriculture sector’s contribution to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and its increasing vulnerability to the effects of climate change warrants assessments considering not only on-farm productivity but also the industry’s environmental sustainability. Utilizing the concept of eco-efficiency, this study analyzes the environmental performance of Swedish crop farms by incorporating farm-level GHG emissions as an undesirable output in the production function.
