Classification of genomic and proteomic data using support vector machines

Supervised learning methods are used when one wants to construct a classifier. To use such a method, one has to know the correct classification of at least some samples, which are used to train the classifier. Once a classifier has been trained it can be used to predict the class of unknown samples. Supervised learning methods have been used numerous times in genomic applications and we will only

Theoretical studies of response properties of organic molecules

In this thesis eight papers are presented. They represent development of theory and implementation technique in quantum chemistry, as well applications. The first two papers describe advances in geometry optimization techniques. In the first of these papers a technique for achieving an approximate curvature description of the energy surface is presented and in the next a technique for inter molec

Contribution of pseudogenes to sequence diversity.

Pseudogenes are very common in the genomes of a wide range of organisms and, although they were originally considered as genetic junk, now several functions have been attributed to them. One important function of pseudogenes, as discussed in this chapter, is to provide material for genetic diversity. This is most prominent in the case of immunological recognition molecules such as immunoglobulins

Trunk posture: reliability, accuracy, and risk estimates for low back pain from a video based assessment method

It has been recently reported that both dynamic movement characteristics, as well as the duration of postures adopted during work, are important in the development of low back pain (LBP). This paper presents a video-based posture assessment method capable of measuring trunk angles and angular velocities in industrial workplaces. The interobserver reliability, system accuracy, and the relationship

The distribution of brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) in streams in southern Sweden.

This thesis examines the effect of water quality, habitat and species interactions on the occurrence and abundance of stream fishes in southern Sweden. I found that improvements in water quality between the 1960s and 1990s have led to recolonization of streams by brown trout (Salmo trutta L.), stone loach (Barbatula barbatula L.) and eel (Anguilla anguilla L.). The response was greatest for brown

Ultrasonic energy for cutting, coagulating, and dissecting.

With a new surgical instrument, a haemostatic dissecting tool driven by ultrasonic energy, different surgical procedures is described within the neck, the chest, and abdomen both for open and laparo- and thoracoscopic procedures. Also orthopedic procedures are described. I also wrote the chapter 5: Esophageal resection with the Ultracision blade and shears.

Simulation of Hcci-Addressing Compression Ratio and Turbocharging

This paper focuses on the performance and efficiency of an HCCI (Homogenous Charge Compression Ignition) engine system running on natural gas or landfill gas for stationary applications. Zero-dimensional modelling and simulation of the engine, turbo, inlet and exhaust manifolds and inlet air conditioner (intercooler/heater) are used to study the effect of compression ratio and exhaust turbine size
