Information extraction from verbal autopsies
(2022-12-23)
Civil registration and vital statistics registers births and deaths and compiles statistics. These statistics are a key factor to promote public health policies, register longevity and the health of the population. Death ...
Building hybrid classical-quantum classifiers to deal with unbalanced datasets
(2022-12-23)
Quantum circuits offer a different approach to process data through quantum operations and measurements of quantum states. At the same time, the increasing number of advances in technology has opened a path to turning these ...
The “Extended Reach” method: exploring the neighbors of the neighbors to escape from local optima
(2022-12-23)
[EN] Local search is a widely used meta-heuristic due to its simple yet effective approach for solving computationally hard optimization problems. Despite their popularity, hill-climbing algorithms get stuck in local optima, ...
Dimensionless numerical analysis of cracked materials by means of infrared lock-in thermography
(2022-08-02)
In this master’s thesis a dimensionless numerical model of the lock-in infrared thermography ex-
periment for the detection of open-surface cracks is developed. Starting with the constitutive equation
and the boundary ...
Evolutionary computation in hierarchical model discovery
(2022-12-23)
Despite its continuous growth, probabilistic programming is still a great
unknown among scientists, specially those whose research areas involve sampling dis-
tributions, statistical modeling or statistical inference. ...
Caracterización y simulación del comportamiento mecánico de aglomerantes vítreos para muelas de rectificado de alúmina
(2022-08-02)
Este trabajo tiene como objetivo principal la caracterización del comportamiento mecánico de una muela de alúmina vitrificada. Nace de la necesidad por parte de los fabricantes de muelas abrasivas de obtener información ...
Impact of wind generation on line protection
(2020-10-21)
Resumen del proyecto:
La generación basada en energía renovable, como parques eólicos o solares presentan una respuesta ante cortocircuito diferente a los generadores síncronos convencionales debido a su acoplamiento a ...
Electricity Price Forecasting using Sale and Purchase Curves: The X-Model Evidence for Spain
(2022)
In this Master Thesis, we implement in the Spanish electricity market the X-Model proposed by Ziel and Steinert (2016), combining the insights of market structure models with econometric techniques. Instead of directly ...
A discriminatory auction for the day-ahead electricity market: its effect on windfall profits
(2022-07-29)
The main goal of the present Master Thesis is to analyze the Spanish elec- tricity day-ahead market from the design perspective, which like most European countries follows a uniform auction. Indeed, the price is set by the ...
An Analysis of the Tourism Demand in the Dominican Republic From 2001 to 2021
(2022)
In this study, we estimate the tourism demand elasticities model by income and prices in the Dominican Republic from the top ten leading countries in tourism, from the first quarter of 2001 to the last quarter of 2021. The ...
