    • Tracking the distribution of bugs across software release versions 

      Ó Ríordáin, Seán (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2015)
      Real software systems always contain bugs and the question on every release manager’s mind coming up to a release centres around how many undiscovered bugs there still remain. This work looks at one model, (Goel and ...

    • Bayesian inference for short term traffic forecasting 

      Mai, Tiep K. (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2013)
      In intelligent transport systems, short term traffic forecasting is one of the most important problems, reflecting the network state in the near future and feeding information to other application modules. Even though ...

    • 3D object reconstruction using multiple views 

      Kim, Donghoon (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2011)
      3D object modelling from multiple view images has recently been of increasing interest in computer vision. Two techniques, Visual Hull and Photo Hull, have been extensively studied in the hope of developing 3D shape ...

    • A new method to implement Bayesian inference on stochastic differential equation models 

      Joshi, Chaitanya (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2011)
      Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) are widely used to model numerous real-life phenomena. However, transition densities of most of the SDE models used in practice are not known, making both likelihood based and ...

    • Reliability updating in linear opinion pooling for multiple decision makers 

      Bolger, Donnacha (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2016)
      Accurate information sources are vital prerequisites for good decision making. In this thesis we consider a multiple participant setting, where all decision makers (DMs) have a collection of neighbours with whom they share ...

    • Fast sequential parameter inference for dynamic state space models 

      Bhattacharya, Arnab (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2012)
      Many problems in science require estimation and inference on systems that generate data over time. Such systems, quite common in statistical signal processing, time series analysis and econometrics, can be stated in a ...

    • L_ Inference for shape parameter estimation 

      Arellano Vidal, Claudia L. (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2014)
      In this thesis, we propose a method to robustly estimate the parameters that controls the mapping of a shape (model shape) onto another (target shape). The shapes of interest are contours in the 2D space, surfaces in the ...

    • MCMC for inference on phase-type and masked system lifetime models 

      Aslett, Louis J.M. (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2012)
      Common reliability data consist of lifetimes (of censoring information) on all components and systems under examination. However, masked system lifetime data represents an important class of problems where the information ...
