1. Resistensbestämning av bakterier : Studie av odlingsbuljongens påverkan på resultatet i tidigare rapporterad forskning samt genom experimentell undersökning.
Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kemi och biomedicin (KOB)Sammanfattning : Ökande antibiotikaresistens utgör en allvarlig samhällsutmaning. För resistensbestämning av bakterier används standardmetoden buljongspädning. Då bestäms minsta inhiberande koncentration (MIC) som den lägsta koncentration av antibiotika som kan förhindra tillväxt.

2. Orientation of plasma jet fronts in the Earth's magnetotail
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi; Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, UppsalaavdelningenSammanfattning : This project aims to investigate the orientation of plasma jet fronts in Earth's magnetotail using multi-spacecraft measurement data. The orientations are estimated by applying minimum variance analysis (MVA) and multi-spacecraft timing analysis for finding normal vectors to the jet fronts as they pass over the spacecraft. LÄS MER
3. A Multi-Level Extension of the Hierarchical PCA Framework with Applications to Portfolio Construction with Futures Contracts
Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : With an increasingly globalised market and growing asset universe, estimating the market covariance matrix becomes even more challenging. In recent years, there has been an extensive development of methods aimed at mitigating these issues. LÄS MER
4. Is reaching for the whisky bottle justified? Examining the value of whisky and its inclusion in the optimal portfolio
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionenSammanfattning : This study aims to evaluate whisky as an investment through two research questions: “What affects the value of whisky?” and “Should whisky be included in the optimal portfolio?”. The value of whisky is examined by constructing a hedonic regression using five hedonic attributes. Also, the convenience yield associated with whisky is examined. LÄS MER
5. Portfolio Optimization: The search for an optimal portfolio with cryptocurrencies and S&P 500
Kandidat-uppsats,Sammanfattning : This thesis’ aim is to create an optimal portfolio consisting of Bitcoin, Ethereum and S&P 500. We also examine the minimum variance portfolio with the framework of Markowitz's mean variance optimization model. LÄS MER
