  1. 16. Ability Estimation Methods : An Introduction to Item Response Theory and Elo Education Systems

    Kandidat-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Författare :Sebastian Hedberg; Salma Nasra; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The foundational testing of knowledge and ability is and has always been very important. These days we can create a computerized test that can vary based on the estimated skill of the examinee. This is called an adaptive test. And the aim of this is to estimate the ability of the examinee more precisely. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Predicting Nordic Takeover Targets: A Binary Logit Analysis

    C-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för redovisning och finansiering

    Författare :Joanna Danielson; Siri Ridderstråle; [2023]
    Nyckelord :binary logit model; prediction; Nordics; takeover; target;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to investigate if certain firm characteristics increase the likelihood of a company being acquired and if these factors can successfully predict which firms become subjects to takeovers in the Nordic setting. We compare data on a sample of Nordic targets and non-targets between the years 2012 and 2021, and test hypotheses regarding firm and industry characteristics, as well as market sentiments through binary logit models.

  3. 18. #DeGenderFashion : A Visual Analysis of How Fashion Is Used to Challenge Gender Norms and Heteronormative Expectations

    Magister-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för konst, kultur och kommunikation (K3)

    Författare :Alexandra Edelsbrunner; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Fashion Theory; Gender Theory; Social Media Activism; Identity; Cultural Studies; Gender Norms;

    Sammanfattning : The study aims to answer the question of whether fashion can communicate meaning, by addressing how creators on Instagram challenge dominant gender norms through fashion, with a focus on the activist movement of #DeGenderFashion. The research questions will be answered using fashion theory and gender theory as guiding points, with literature on social media activism, representations of gender, and cultural studies giving further insight into the dynamics of the movement.

  4. 19. Damned if you do, damned if you don't : How nonbinary students navigate identity in higher education

    Magister-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Sociologiska institutionen

    Författare :Amanda Berglund; [2023]
    Nyckelord :cisnormativity; nonbinary; nonbinary identities; non-binary; Sweden; higher education; microaggressions; gender minority stress;

    Sammanfattning : The gender binary is a pervasive idea in society which suggests that there only exist two genders – man and woman. The wide array of differing gender identities would suggest otherwise. Identifying as nonbinary means that you reject the gender binary and identify somewhere between, in both, or beyond the binary.

  5. 20. Scalable Nonparametric L1 Density Estimation via Sparse Subtree Partitioning

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Statistik, AI och data science

    Författare :Axel Sandstedt; [2023]
    Nyckelord :density estimation; scalable density estimation; nonparametric density estimation; scalable nonparametric density estimation; L1; L_1; anomaly detection; regression analysis;

    Sammanfattning : We consider the construction of multivariate histogram estimators for any density f seeking to minimize its L1 distance to the true underlying density using arbitrarily large sample sizes. Theory for such estimators exist and the early stages of distributed implementations are available. LÄS MER
