Résumé :
Objective prior distributions represent a fundamental part of Bayesian inference. Although several approaches for continuous parameter spaces have been developed, Bayesian theory lacks of a general method that allows to obtain priors for the discrete case. In the present work we propose a novel idea, based on losses, to derive objective priors for discrete parameter spaces. We objectively measure the worth of each parameter values, and link it to the prior probability by means of the self information loss function. The worth is measured by taking into consideration the surroundings of each ele

Résumé :
Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels develop from existing vessels. Angiogenesis is important in a number of conditions such as embryogenesis, wound healing and cancer. It has been modelled phenomenologically at the macroscale, using the well-known 'snail-trail' approach in which trailing endothelial cells follow the paths of other, leading endothelial cells. In this thesis, we systematically determine the collective behaviour of endothelial cells from their behaviour at the cell-level during corneal angiogenesis. We formulate an agent-based model, based on the snail-trail pr

Résumé :
The Discrete Controller Synthesis (DCS) technique is used for automatic generation of correct-by-construction hardware controllers. For a given plant (a state-based model), and an associated control specification (a behavioral requirement), DCS generates a controller which, composed with the plant, guarantees the satisfaction of the specification. The DCS technique used relies on binary decision diagrams (BDDs). The controllers generated must be compliant with standard RTL hardware synthesis tools.

The Poincare-Miranda Theorem is a topological result about the existence of a zero of a function under particular boundary conditions. In this thesis, we explore proofs of the Poincare-Miranda Theorem that are discrete in nature - that is, they prove a continuous result using an intermediate lemma about discrete objects. We explain a proof by Tkacz and Turzanski that proves the Poincare-Miranda theorem via the Steinhaus Chessboard Theorem, involving colorings of partitions of n-dimensional cubes. Then, we develop a new proof of the Poincare-Miranda Theorem that relies on a polytopal generaliza

This paper is a study on some upper bounds of the Mertens function, which is often considered somewhat of a ``mysterious" function in mathematics and is closely related to the Riemann Hypothesis. We discuss some known bounds of the Mertens function, and also seek new bounds with the help of an automated conjecture-making program named CONJECTURING, which was created by C. Larson and N. Van Cleemput, and inspired by Fajtowicz's Dalmatian Heuristic. By utilizing this powerful program, we were able to form, validate, and disprove hypotheses regarding the Mertens function and how it is bounded.

Résumé :
The problem of representing decision making behaviour in discrete event simulation was investigated. Of particular interest was modelling variety in the decisions, where different people might make different decisions even where the same circumstances hold. An initial investigation of existing and alternative approaches for representing decision making was carried out. This led to the suggestion of using a neural network to represent the decision making behaviour in the form of a multi-criteria probability distribution based on data of observed decision making. The feasibility of the stochasti

Résumé :
In complex flow situations, it is common to use numerical tools to evaluate the aerodynamic unsteady behavior. The present work presents an alternate formulation for the state space representation of aeroelastic systems based on digital control theory that is shown to be effective and accurate for the coupling of numerical solutions with such systems. The application of the z transform allows for direct frequency domain representations of the aerodynamic solutions without the need for approximating models, as generally occurs in other state space formulations. This fact makes this new methodol

Résumé :
Bibliography: leaves 100-103.<br>The Discrete Element Method (DEM) is a collection of numerical techniques based on a discontinuum idealisation of a physical system. Discrete Element Methods have been successfully applied to the simulation of the dynamic behaviour of granular media. Using the Finite Element Method to model the behaviour of each discrete element has resulted in the Combined Finite Discrete Element Method. This combination allows researchers to investigate the behaviour of assemblies of particles in which each particle need not behave in an entirely elastic mamrer. More importan
