Functional brain connectivity plays an important role on understanding how human brain functions and neuropsychological diseases such as Autism, Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) is one of the most...

HTLV-I is the first discovered human retrovirus and a causative agent of both adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and HTLV-I-associated myelopathy (or tropical spastic paraparesis) (HAM/TSP). Previous models have been successful in providing insight into the progression of HTLV-I infection. The...

The main purpose of this thesis is to explore different risk-adjusted ratios, add correlation into account and see which one of them accommodates for risk the best way. In finance it is well-known that investors can not rely on pure return. Some fund managers can produce high return but at the...

In this work, the CF00N polysomnograph data of 75 patients, with ranging severeties of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), is presented and analyzed in terms of sleep state classification. The pre-processing and cleaning of each polysomnograph recording were performed in R (R Core Team, 2019) using...

Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group defined over a ground field $k$, and let $\mu$ be a $\Gal(k^\sep/k)$-module.A \tb{cohomological invariant} is a morphism $a:H^1(-,G)\to H^n(-,\mu)$ of two functors from the category of field extensions over $k$ to the category of setswhere $H^1(-,G)$ is the...

This thesis is about the theory of vertex operator algebras and their representations. Its main results provide new examples of logarithmic C2-cofinite vertex operator algebras. These include closure of the characters under modular transformations with explicit determination of the modular...

In this thesis we are interested in fixed point properties of representations of semi-topological semigroups of non-expansive mappings on weak and weak* compact convex sets in Banach or dual spaces. More particularly, we study the following problems : Problem 1 : Let F be any commuting family of...

$G$-structures on fusion categories have been shown to be an important tool to understand orbifolds of vertex operator algebras \cite{Kirillov}\cite{Gcrossedmuger}\cite{Orbifold_Paper}. We continue to develop this idea by generalizing Eilenberg-Maclane's notion of an Abelian $3$-cocycle to...

Bayesian nonparametric models have gained increasing attention due to their flexibility in modelling natural and social phenomena and have been widely applied in machine learning, biology, social science and so on. Unlike traditional Bayesian parametric models, Bayesian nonparametric models place...

Many standard approaches for conducting statistical inference on regression parameters rely heavily on parametric assumptions and asymptotic results. The wild bootstrap (Mammen, 1993) was developed as a nonparametric means to estimate a sampling distribution and is particularly useful when...
