1. 1. Uncertainty Estimation in Radiation Dose Prediction U-Net

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Författare :Frida Skarf; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Radiation dose prediction models; U-net; quantile regression; Monte Carlo Dropout; epistemic uncertainty estimation; aleatoric uncertainty estimation; Stråldospredicerande modeller; U-net; kvantilregression; Monte Carlo Dropout; epistemisk osäkerhetsskattning; aletorisk osäkerhetsskattning;

   Sammanfattning : The ability to quantify uncertainties associated with neural network predictions is crucial when they are relied upon in decision-making processes, especially in safety-critical applications like radiation therapy. In this paper, a single-model estimator of both epistemic and aleatoric uncertainties in a regression 3D U-net used for radiation dose prediction is presented. LÄS MER

3. 2. Unionism and Income An analysis of the Right to work laws on wage dispersion in the United States

   Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

   Författare :Karl Palmgren; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Right-to-work; Right to work; wage dispersion; Difference in Difference; Business and Economics;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis, I investigate the effect of introducing Right-to-work laws on wages and the dispersion of wages in the United States, using a staggered Difference in Difference model pioneered by Callaway & Sant’Anna (2021) on wages and individual wage quantiles. Introducing Right-to-work laws appear to have a generally positive effect on wages and wage dispersion for all wages. LÄS MER

4. 3. Institutional Quality and Public Renewable Energy Investments : A panel quantile regression analysis on the effects ofcorruption on the renewable energy transition in middle-income countries

   Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Nationalekonomi; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

   Författare :Filip Halldén; Anna Hultberg; [2023]
   Nyckelord :quantile regression; panel data; renewable energy investments; public investments; determinants of investments; middle-income countries; corruption;

   Sammanfattning : To avoid the worst effects of climate change, we need to end our reliance on fossil fuels and invest in alternative, renewable sources. Despite making up only 25% of total renewable energy investments, public investment is still vital due to its ability to encourage investments through policy measures and programs. LÄS MER

5. 4. The Great Recession’s Impact on Gender Wage in the Top Quantiles in the US

   Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för nationalekonomi och statistik (NS)

   Nyckelord :Gender wage gap; Discrimination; Great recession; Exogenous shock; Quantile regression; Women; Labour market; Wage differentials;

   Sammanfattning : The gender wage gap in the labour market has long been a topic of study, highlighting the disadvantages faced by women in terms of earningscompared to men. This study aims to investigate if the Great Recession had additional impacts on women's earnings differentials. LÄS MER

7. 5. Geopolitisk risk och dess påverkan på Stockholmsbörsens volatilitet

   Kandidat-uppsats,

   Författare :Nicklas Bergström; Julius Larsson; [2022-07-11]
   Nyckelord :Geopolitical risk; Volatility; Efficient market hypothesis; Geopolitisk risk; Volatilitet; Effektiva marknadshypotesen;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to analyze if geopolitical risk has an effect on the volatility of the Swedish stock market. The methods: OLS-regression and quantile-regressions are used. Geopolitical risk is quantified using an index created by Caldara and Iacoviello (2018) that measures the geopolitical risk. LÄS MER
