1. Feature Selection for Microarray Data via Stochastic Approximation
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknikAbstract : This thesis explores the challenge of feature selection (FS) in machine learning, which involves reducing the dimensionality of data. The selection of a relevant subset of features from a larger pool has demonstrated its effectiveness in enhancing the performance of various machine learning algorithms. READ MORE

2. A temporal Hawkes process model for shooting occurrences in Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionenAbstract : The Hawkes process, also referred to as a self-exciting point process, is a class of point processes where the intensity is conditioned on previous events. More specifically, an event occurrence excites the process, temporarily increasing the probability of more events occurring. READ MORE

3. Predictive Modeling and Statistical Inference for CTA returns : A Hidden Markov Approach with Sparse Logistic Regression
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistikAbstract : This thesis focuses on predicting trends in Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs), also known as trend-following hedge funds. The paper applies a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) for classifying trends. Additionally, by incorporating additional features, a regularized logistic regression model is used to enhance prediction capability. READ MORE

4. Improved Statistical Methods for Elliptic Stochastic Homogenization Problems : Application of Multi Level- and Multi Index Monte Carlo on Elliptic Stochastic Homogenization Problems
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad beräkningsvetenskapAbstract : In numerical multiscale methods, one relies on a coupling between macroscopic model and a microscopic model. The macroscopic model does not include the microscopic properties that the microscopic model offers and that are vital for the desired solution. READ MORE

5. Random curves and their scaling limits
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)Abstract : We focus on planar Random Walks and some related stochastic processes. The discrete models are introduced and some of their core properties examined. We then turn to the question of continuous analogues, starting with the well-known convergence of the Random Walk to Brownian Motion. READ MORE
