Abstract:
In the last decades, computational models have become useful tools for studying biological neural networks. These models are typically constrained by either behavioural data from neuropsychological studies or by biological data from neuroscience. One model of the latter kind is the Bayesian Confidence Propagating Neural Network (BCPNN) - an attractor network with a Bayesian learning rule which has been proposed as a model for various types of memory. In this thesis, I have further studied the potential of the BCPNN in short-term sequential memory. More specifically, I have investigated if the

Abstract:
Missed hospital appointments is a globally acknowledged problem. In order to minimize the cost associated with this, attempts have been made to predict what appointments will be missed using statistical models and machine learning. However, in all previous models, information about a patient’s previous appointments has been ignored to some extent. In this thesis, a novel way of incorporating previous appointment data in more detail is proposed. This is done by firstly estimating a prior attendance probability based on general data using an artificial neural network, and then updating it using

Supply chain management (SCM) is the oversight of materials, information, and finances as they move in a process from supplier to manufacturer to wholesaler to retailer to consumer.

Therefore, an interruption in one subnetwork of the system may have an adverse effect on another subnetworks, which will result in a supply chain disruption. Disruptions from an event or

Abstract:
Human capability to recall episodic memories depends on how much time has passed since the memory was encoded. This dependency is described by a memory retrieval curve that reflects an interesting phenomenon referred to as a reminiscence bump - a tendency for older people to recall more memories formed during their young adulthood than in other periods of life. This phenomenon can be modelled with an attractor neural network, for example, the firing-rate Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN) with incremental learning.

Abstract:
Studying interactions between different brain regions or neural components is crucial in understanding neurological disorders. Dynamic Bayesian networks, a type of statistical graphical model, have been suggested as a promising tool to model neural communication systems. This thesis investigates the employment of dynamic Bayesian networks for analyzing neural connectivity, especially with focus on three topics: structural feature extraction, group analysis, and error control in learning network structures. Extracting interpretable features from experimental data is important for clinical diag

The aim in this work is to show that combining simple features in a Bayesian Network allows building an enhanced face detector system, increasing the detection rate and speeding up the face detection process. This face detector has been developed to work

Abstract:
We investigated the neuronal processes which occur during a decision- making task based on a perceptual classi cation judgment. For this purpose we have analysed three di erent experimental paradigms (somatosensory, visual, and auditory) in two di erent species (monkey and rat), with the common goal of shedding light into the information carried by neurons. In particular, we focused on how the information content is preserved in the underlying neuronal activity over time. Furthermore we considered how the decision, the stimuli, and the con dence are encoded in memory and, when the exp
