      The purpose of this report is to exchange our experience with parallelizing existing scientific codes by utilizing profiling tools and the OpenMP application programming interface (API) for multi-platform shared-memory ...
    • Parameter estimation in a Markov mesh model by reversible jump MCMC simulation 

      Norstein, Johanne (Master thesis, 2012)
      We have a model for simulating facies values in a rock. We can use the model to find facies structures in a 2-dimensional area, which we can use to find properties of a rock in a petroleum reservoir. The model is a Markov ...
    • Parameter estimation in convolved categorical models 

      Lindberg, David (Master thesis, 2010)
      In this thesis, we solve the seismic inverse problem in a Bayesian setting and perform the associated model parameter estimation. The subsurface rock layers are represented by categorical variables, which depends on some ...
    • Parameter Estimation in Extreme Value Models with Markov Chain Monte Carlo Methods 

      Gausland, Eivind Blomholm (Master thesis, 2010)
      In this thesis I have studied how to estimate parameters in an extreme value model with Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) given a data set. This is done with synthetic Gaussian time series generated by spectral densities, ...
    • Parameter selection for total variation regularization with applications in imaging 

      Ludvigsen, Martin (Master thesis, 2020)
      Regulariseringsmetoder er ofte brukt for å løse inverse problemer. Spesielt har total variasjon- regulering vist seg å være effektiv for støyfjerning av bilder. Regulariseringsmetoder kr- ever vanligvis valg av én eller ...
