Searching indirectly for physics beyond the standard model requires careful investigation of collider data and methodological advances that are the subject of this thesis. In the first part, we develop a multivariate analysis tool to compare data with the ...
We present a novel technique of neutron noise detection and experimental data interpretation developed during the EU H2020 project CORTEX aiming to improve the capabilities for identification and localization of neutron noise sources. The experimental data ...
Satellite conjunctions involving "near misses" of space objects are becoming increasingly likely. One approach to risk analysis for them involves the computation of the collision probability, but this has been regarded as having some counterintuitive prope ...
Humans can rapidly estimate the statistical properties of groups of stimuli, including their average and variability. But recent studies of so-called Feature Distribution Learning (FDL) have shown that observers can quickly learn even more complex aspects ...
There is sustained and widespread interest in understanding the limit, if there is any, to the human life span. Apart from its intrinsic and biological interest, changes in survival in old age have implications for the sustainability of social security sys ...
The goal of habitat suitability mapping is to predict the lo-cations in which a given species could be present. This is typically accomplished by statistical models which use envi-ronmental variables to predict species observation data. The relationship be ...
