In this thesis, we focus on mathematical optimization models and algorithms for solving routing and logistic problems. The first contribution regards a path and mission planning problem, called Carrier-Vehicle Traveling Salesman Problem (CVTSP), for a system of heterogeneous vehicles. A Mixed-Integer Second Order Conic Programming (MISOCP) model and a Benders-like enumeration algorithm are presented for solving CVTSP. The second work concerns a class of routing problems, referred to as Intercept...

The Bayesian approach to logistic regression modelling for credit scoring is useful when there are data quantity issues. Data quantity issues might occur when a bank is opening in a new location or there is change in the scoring procedure. Making use of prior information (available from the coefficients estimated on other data sets, or expert knowledge about the coefficients) a Bayesian approach is proposed to improve the credit scoring models. To achieve this, a data set is split into two sets,...

The main reason for the low production efficiencies at North Coast Milling is the frequent stoppages due to equipment breakdowns and the requirement for unscheduled maintenance. In order for this factory to be able to reach the desired efficiencies, it is imperative that downtime and cost drivers in the production lines be identified and rectified. In order to achieve world-class performance, more and more companies are replacing their reactive strategies for maintenance with proactive strategie...

This paper evaluates the logistics for production chemicals used on the offshore installations of the coast of Norway. Statoil provided the following problem description: There are an increasing number of fields on the Norwegian continental shelf that are going in to mature stage of its production. In this part of the field’s life cycle the need for production chemicals are increasing. The problem for the supply chain is that the tank capacity on-board the installations are limited and the procu...

The relative merits of the Fisher linear discriminant function (Efron, 1975) and logistic regression procedure (Press and Wilson, 1978; McLachlan and Byth, 1979), applied to the two group discrimination problem under conditions of multivariate normality and common covariance, have been debated. In related research, DiPillo (1976, 1977, 1979) has argued that a biased Fisher linear discriminant function is preferable when one or more collinearities exist among the classifying variables. This paper...

In this paper, we study the existence of positive solutions of a one-parameter family of logistic equations on R+ or on R. These equations are stationary versions of the Fisher equations and the KPP equations. We also study the blow up region of a sequence of the solutions when the parameter approachs a critical value and the nonexistence of positive solutions beyond the critical value. We use the direct method and the sub and super solution method.

The generalized linear model and particularly the logistic model are widely used in public health, medicine, and epidemiology. Goodness-of-fit tests for these models are popularly used to describe how well a proposed model fits a set of observations. These different goodness-of-fit tests all have individual advantages and disadvantages. In this thesis, we mainly consider the performance of the "Hosmer-Lemeshow" test, the Pearson's chi-square test, the unweighted sum of squares test and the cumul...

Aggregation is a technique for representing conditional probability distributions as an analytic function of parents. Logistic regression is a commonly used representation for aggregators in Bayesian belief networks when a child has multiple parents. In this thesis, we consider extending logistic regression to directed relational models, where there are objects and relations among them, and we want to model varying populations and interactions among parents. We first examine the representationa...

My Masters research aims to deepen our understanding of the behaviour of robust methods in logistic regression. Logistic regression is a special case of Generalized Linear Modelling (GLM), which is a powerful and popular technique for modelling a large variety of data. Robust methods are useful in reducing the effect of outlying values in the response variable on parameter estimates. A literature survey shows that we are still at the beginning of being able to detect extreme observations in logi...

Logistic regression is commonly used in epidemiology to model the relationship between risk factors and presence/absence of a disease. Usually it is difficult to look for interaction structure (many possible pairwise interactions, for instance) to include in the model. So a model which is additive on the logit scale is fitted. If the number of risk factors is relatively large such an additive relationship may not make good sense. A new logistic regression model is proposed to incorporate non-add...

The primary objective of this paper is a focused introduction to the logistic regression model and its use in methods for modeling the relationship between a dichotomous outcome variable and a set of covariates. The approach we will take is to develop the model from a regression analysis point of view. Also in this paper, an estimator of the common odds ratio in one-to-one matched case-control studies is proposed. The connection between this estimator and the James-Stein estimating procedure is ...
