1	Performance and soundness of european banking systems / Performance et stabilité des systèmes bancaires européens Tomuleasa, Ioana iuliana 14 July 2017 (has links) Le système financier joue un rôle crucial dans la société moderne, devenant indispensable dans le développement économique d’une nation. Un système financier optimal et un secteur bancaire performant sont considères comme les conditions les plus importantes pour un développement économique durable. Témoignant de l’importance du secteur bancaire, en particulier au cours du dernier siècle, cette thèse discute les plus important indicateurs, désignes méthodologiques et déterminants de la performance et solidité des secteurs bancaires. La thèse explore en détail l’impact des facteurs spécifique à la banque, à l’industrie et ceux macroéconomique sur l’évolution de la performance et solidité bancaires européennes pendant la crise financière internationale. En outre, la thèse souligne les efforts importants déployés par les décideurs politiques pendant les dernières années pour efficacement stimuler les secteurs économiques et pour assurer un bon fonctionnement des systèmes financiers. / The financial system plays a crucial role in the modern society, becoming indispensable in the economic development of a nation. It was stated that an optimal financial system and well-functioning banking sector are commonly considered to be among the most important conditions for a sustainable economic development. Witnessing the importance of the banking sector, particularly in the last century, this thesis discusses the most important indicators, methodological designs and determinants of bank performance and soundness, exploring in detail the impact of bank-specific, industry-specific and macroeconomic factors on the evolution of European bank performance and soundness during the international financial crisis. Moreover, it emphasizes the important efforts made by policy-makers in recent years to provide effectively a sufficient stimulus to the economic sectors and to ensure a sound functioning of financial systems.

3	Advanced Modeling of Longitudinal Spectroscopy Data Kundu, Madan Gopal January 2014 (has links) Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy is a neuroimaging technique. It is widely used to quantify the concentration of important metabolites in a brain tissue. Imbalance in concentration of brain metabolites has been found to be associated with development of neurological impairment. There has been increasing trend of using MR spectroscopy as a diagnosis tool for neurological disorders. We established statistical methodology to analyze data obtained from the MR spectroscopy in the context of the HIV associated neurological disorder. First, we have developed novel methodology to study the association of marker of neurological disorder with MR spectrum from brain and how this association evolves with time. The entire problem fits into the framework of scalar-on-function regression model with individual spectrum being the functional predictor. We have extended one of the existing cross-sectional scalar-on-function regression techniques to longitudinal set-up. Advantage of proposed method includes: 1) ability to model flexible time-varying association between response and functional predictor and (2) ability to incorporate prior information. Second part of research attempts to study the influence of the clinical and demographic factors on the progression of brain metabolites over time. In order to understand the influence of these factors in fully non-parametric way, we proposed LongCART algorithm to construct regression tree with longitudinal data. Such a regression tree helps to identify smaller subpopulations (characterized by baseline factors) with differential longitudinal profile and hence helps us to identify influence of baseline factors. Advantage of LongCART algorithm includes: (1) it maintains of type-I error in determining best split, (2) substantially reduces computation time and (2) applicable even observations are taken at subject-specific time-points. Finally, we carried out an in-depth analysis of longitudinal changes in the brain metabolite concentrations in three brain regions, namely, white matter, gray matter and basal ganglia in chronically infected HIV patients enrolled in HIV Neuroimaging Consortium study. We studied the influence of important baseline factors (clinical and demographic) on these longitudinal profiles of brain metabolites using LongCART algorithm in order to identify subgroup of patients at higher risk of neurological impairment. / Partial research support was provided by the National Institutes of Health grants U01-MH083545, R01-CA126205 and U01-CA086368 Spectroscopy Functional Data Analysis Longitudinal Functional Data Analysis Brownian Bridge Longitudinal CART Longitudinal Regression Tree HIV Brain metabolites HIV neuroimaging consortium LongPEER PEER Decomposition based penalty NAA Creatine Myo-inositol Choline Glutamine and Glutamate White matter Gray matter Basal ganglia LongCART neurological disorder Global deficit score GSVD General Singular Value Decomposition Microbial metabolites -- Research HIV infections -- Complications Myelinated neurofibrils Research -- Methodology Trees (Graph theory) -- Research Biometry -- Research -- Methodology Cerebral cortex Central nervous system -- Abnormalities Spectrum analysis -- Research HIV (Viruses) -- Research -- Analysis Creatine Choline Glutamine
