This thesis treats the problem of positioning in WiFi networks and proposes a solution using hidden Markov models and particle lters based on sequential importance sampling with resampling. Hidden Markov models prove to be a powerful framework for this type of problem exhibiting both an intuitive and adaptive model structure. One of the diculties encountered when ltering this model is that it is i
Ghana and Kenya have both made significant efforts to strengthen the skills profile of their young and growing workforces.

The Sardinian dhole (Cynotherium sardous) was an iconic and unique canid species that was endemic to Sardinia and Corsica until it became extinct at the end of the Late Pleistocene. Given its peculiar dental morphology, small body size, and high level of endemism, several extant canids have been proposed as possible relatives of the Sardinian dhole, including the Asian dhole and African hunting doThe Sardinian dhole (Cynotherium sardous)1 was an iconic and unique canid species that was endemic to Sardinia and Corsica until it became extinct at the end of the Late Pleistocene.2-5 Given its peculiar dental morphology, small body size, and high level of endemism, several extant canids have been proposed as possible relatives of the Sardinian dhole, including the Asian dhole and African huntin
