Optimal Equity Share in the Norwegian Government Pension Fund Global in Terms of the Downside Risk
(Master thesis, 2022)Being a sovereign wealth fund (SWF), the Norwegian Government Pension Fund Global (NGPFG) operates in a political environment and must adapt to several considerations. We address to what extent the combination of equity ... -
Optimal Location of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in Norway using the Flow refueling Location Model
(Master thesis, 2022)This thesis investigates optimal locations for charging stations across the road network of Norway. To solve this problem, we deploy a flow-refueling location model, which considers the optimal locations based on traffic ... -
Optimal Monetary Policy with Nominal Rigidities and Lumpy Investment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)New Keynesian theory generally abstracts from the lumpy nature of plant-level investment. Given the prominent role of investment spending for shaping optimal monetary policy, this simplification could be problematic. Our ... -
Optimal offshore installation of floating wind turbines, using Mixed-Integer Linear Programming with AMPL
(Master thesis, 2022)The demand for renewable energy in Europe is increasing. The largest potential is offshore wind energy where future wind farms consist of floating wind turbines. The wind is stronger at sea and the floating wind turbines ... -
Optimal Portfolio Choice under Decision-Based Model Combinations
(CAMP Working Paper Series;9/2015, Working paper, 2015)We extend the density combination approach of Billio et al. (2013) to feature combination weights that depend on the past forecasting performance of the individual models entering the combination through a utility-based ... -
Optimal sequential decision making with probabilistic digital twins
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)In this study, we present a formal defnition of the probabilistic digital twin (PDT). Digital twins are emerging in many industries, typically consisting of simulation models and data associated with a specifc physical ... -
Optimalisering av M&A - Et juridisk strategisk perspektiv
(Master thesis, 2023)Det er forsket mye på fusjoner og oppkjøp (M&A), og det blir hyppig diskutert i forskningslitteraturen om det lønner seg å gjøre en M&A eller ikke. Studier viser at 70 % til 90 % av M&A ikke blir vellykket, men årsaken til ... -
OPTIMISING MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES: AUTOFLEX - AN AUTOML APPROACH
(Master thesis, 2023)Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) has emerged as a promising solution to tackle the challenges of algorithm selection, hyperparameter optimisation, feature engineering, scalability, and interpretability in ML tasks. This ... -
Optimising Personnel Rostering Through Mixed Integer Linear Programming
(Master thesis, 2023)Personnel planning is an important component of business management. Improved personnel planning can lead to more satisfied employees and decreased personnel costs. This thesis explores how mixed integer linear programming ... -
Optimists and Pessimists in (In)Complete Markets
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)We study the effects of market incompleteness on speculation, investor survival, and asset pricing moments, when investors disagree about the likelihood of jumps and have recursive preferences. We consider two models. In ... -

Optimizing insect metabarcoding using replicated mock communities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Metabarcoding (high-throughput sequencing of marker gene amplicons) has emerged as a promising and cost-effective method for characterizing insect community samples. Yet, the methodology varies greatly among studies and ... -
Optimizing multiple qualifications of products on non-identical parallel machines
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In some manufacturing contexts, such as semiconductor manufacturing, machines must be qualified, or eligible, to process a product, and machines cannot be qualified for all products. This paper investigates the problem of ... -
Optimizing Sports Scheduling: Mathematical and Constraint Programming to Minimize Traveled Distance with Benchmark From The Norwegian Professional Volleyball League
(Master thesis, 2018)In this thesis, we present models to schedule round-robin tournaments. Based on attributes of the 2017/2018 schedule for the Norwegian top volleyball league, the Mizuno League, the models aim to (1) distribute the number ... -

Orchestrating international production networks when formal authority shifts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)We investigate how a brand-owning MNE can coordinate and safeguard exchanges in its international production network following a decline in formal authority and a shift in ‘hub firm’ status to another member of the network. ... -
Order flow and the Polish zloty : an empirical investigation
(Master thesis, 2017)This paper analyses price variations in the euro-zloty and dollar-zloty ex- change rates. Drawing from market microstructure, we use order ow|signed buy and sell orders|to model price variations. Our work adds support ... -
Order flow information and spot rate dynamics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)This paper examines why order flows are empirically important drivers of spot exchange rate dynamics. We consider a decomposition for the depreciation rate that must hold in any model and show that order flows will appear ... -
