The Department of Statistics and Operations Research at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) was created in 1987 as a result of the University Reform Law, which brought together various university groups that had previously been working separately in areas of statistics and operations research.

The Department has a staff of 40 professors who work between the School of Industrial Engineering of Barcelona (ETSEIB); the School of Industrial, Aerospace and Audio-visual Engineering of Terrassa (ESEIAAT); the Barcelona School of Informatics (FIB) and the School of Mathematics and Statistics (FME). The Department offers its own doctoral programme as well as master’s and postgraduate courses.

The Department is involved in a large number of research activities (mostly in the field of industrial engineering), the development of intelligent interfaces and automatic data processing systems, the optimisation and simulation of flows in networks and related applications.

Duration of studies and dedication regime

Duration
The maximum period of study for full-time doctoral studies is four years, counted from the date of first enrolment in the relevant programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited. The academic committee of the doctoral programme may authorise a doctoral candidate to pursue doctoral studies on a part-time basis. In this case, the maximum period of study is seven years from the date of first enrolment in the programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited. To calculate these periods, the date of deposit is considered to be the date on which the thesis is made publicly available for review.

If a doctoral candidate has a degree of disability equal to or greater than 33%, the maximum period of study is six years for full-time students and nine years for part-time students.

For full-time doctoral candidates, the minimum period of study is two years, counted from the date of an applicant's admission to the programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited; for part-time doctoral candidates it is four years.

When there are justified grounds for doing so, and the thesis supervisor and academic tutor have given their authorisation, doctoral candidates may request that the academic committee of their doctoral programme exempt them from the requirement to complete this minimum period of study.

Temporary disability leave and leave for the birth of a child, adoption or fostering for the purposes of adoption, temporary foster care, risk during pregnancy or infant feeding, gender violence and any other situation provided for in current regulations do not count towards these periods. Students who find themselves in any of these circumstances must notify the academic committee of the doctoral programme, which must inform the Doctoral School.

Doctoral candidates may request periods of temporary withdrawal from the programme for up to a total of two years. Requests must be justified and addressed to the academic committee responsible for the programme, which will decide whether or not to grant the candidate's request.

Extension of studies
If a doctoral candidate has not applied to deposit their thesis before the expiry of the deadlines specified in the previous section, the academic committee of the doctoral programme may, at the request of the doctoral candidate, authorise an extension of this deadline of one year under the conditions specified for the doctoral programme in question.

Dismissal from the doctoral programme
A doctoral candidate may be dismissed from a doctoral programme for the following reasons:

The doctoral candidate submitting a justified application to withdraw from the programme.
The doctoral candidate not having completed their annual enrolment or applied for a temporary interruption.
The doctoral candidate not having formalised annual enrolment on the day after the end of the authorisation to temporarily interrupt or withdraw from the programme.
The doctoral candidate receiving a negative reassessment after the deadline set by the academic committee of the doctoral programme to remedy the deficiencies that led to a previous negative assessment.
The doctoral candidate having been the subject of disciplinary proceedings leading to their suspension or permanent exclusion from the UPC.
A refusal to authorise the extensions applied for, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.3 of these regulations.
The doctoral candidate not having submitted the research plan in the period established in Section 8.2 of these regulations.
The maximum period of study for the doctoral degree having ended, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4 of these regulations.

Dismissal from the programme means that the doctoral candidate cannot continue studying at the UPC and that their academic record will be closed. This notwithstanding, they may apply to the academic committee of the programme for readmission, and the committee must reevaluate the candidate in accordance with the criteria established in the regulations.

A doctoral candidate who has been dismissed due to having exceeded the time limit for completing doctoral studies or due to an unsatisfactory assessment may not be Academic Regulations for Doctoral Studies Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya Page 17 of 33 admitted to the same doctoral programme until at least two years have elapsed from the date of dismissal, as provided for in sections 3.4 and 9.2 of these regulations.

Legal framework

Admission criteria and merits assessment

Students who have completed the UPC’s master’s degree programme in Statistics and Operations Research, having earned marks of at least 7 out of 10, will be accepted into the programme.

Students who have not participated in this specific master’s programme but have completed another one in statistics and/or operations research at another university at a similar level and who have an undergraduate degree in sciences or technology (such as a bachelors’ degrees Statistical Techniques and Sciences, Mathematics, Computer Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering, Biology, Economics or Medicine) will be evaluated on the following criteria (weights in parentheses):
• Academic transcript in undergraduate and mater’s programmes (60%).
• Level of undergraduate and/or master’s studies completed or the universities where they were completed (30%).
• Knowledge of one or more of the languages in which the doctoral programme is taught (English, Catalan or Spanish) (10%).

Students are required to have earned at least 70% of the maximum grade possible in both their undergraduate and master’s studies. Standard university rankings will be used to assess the university the applicant attended (for example, http://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings). The Academic Committee may require these students to complete up to 60 credits of bridging courses (subjects from the master’s programme in Statistics and Operations Research).

Training complements

The academic committee for the programme may require that doctoral students pass specific bridging courses. In this case, the committee will monitor the bridging courses and set up appropriate criteria to limit their length.

The courses could involve training in research or transversal education, but in no case will candidates be required to enrol in 60 or more ECTS credits.

Depending on the doctoral student activity report, the programme’s Academic Committee may propose measures, in addition to those established by current regulations, that would disassociate candidates who do not meet the established requisites.

The bridging courses will be agreed upon by the programme’s Academic Committee and each student’s tutor/supervisor. The bridging courses will be made up of subjects from the master’s degree programme in Statistics and Operations Research offered by UPC.

Students who have completed the master’s degree programme in Statistics and Operations Research at the UPC will not have to take any bridging courses.

Students who have been admitted to the doctoral programme and who have completed a different master’s programme will, as a general rule, have to complete some bridging courses (a minimum of 30, usually, and up to a maximum of 60 credits).

Students who have been admitted to the doctoral programme with an “Operations Research” background, will, if they have not acquired the knowledge in their previous master’s studies, have to take general common foundational courses and those covering the foundations of operations research from the master’s degree programme in statistics and operations research: Simulation, Modelling in Mathematical Programming, Optimisation, Stochastic Optimisation, Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimisation, Large Scale Optimisation, Heuristic Methods in Mathematical Programming, Network Flows.

Students who have been admitted to the programme and who have a background in “Statistics” will have to take, if they have not previously acquired such knowledge in their previous master’s studies, the following common foundational and fundamental statistical courses from the master’s degree programme in Statistics and Operations Research: Probability and Stochastic Processes, Multivariate Analysis, Inference, Generalised Linear Models, Design of Experiments, Bayesian Inference, Survival Analysis, Forecasting and Time Series, Discrete Data Analysis, Longitudinal Data Analysis, Non-Parametric Models, Sampling Techniques.

Enrolment period for new doctoral students

Students enrolling in the doctoral programme for the first time must do so by the deadline specified in the admission decision.
Unless otherwise expressly indicated, enrolments corresponding to admission decisions issued from the second half of April on must be completed within the ordinary enrolment period for the current academic year.

Monitoring and evaluation of the doctoral student

Formation activities

The following educational activities make up the doctoral programme in statistics and operations research:

Tutorial. This involves tutors following-up with students via weekly meetings lasting around two hours. These meetings are mandatory and without them, the doctoral thesis cannot progress.
Master’s courses and Summer School. These are aimed to supplement candidates’ education if they have not completed the master’s degree programme in Statistics and Operations Research at the UPC. This includes advanced courses taught by visiting professors under the framework of the Summer School for the University’s master’s degree programme in Statistics and Operations Research (School of Mathematics and Statistics). The number of hours could reach those required to complete 60 credits (varying based on students’ backgrounds). In general, they include optional activities, though the Academic Committee or thesis supervisors could require that some of the courses be taken depending on the student’s background.
Seminars. Candidates will be required to regularly attend the Statistics and Operations Research Department’s seminars so that they may network with renowned researchers on both the national and international level and in order to expose themselves to cutting-edge research problems. Seminars typically last one hour, and the Department organises at least eight of them per year. Attending the seminars is optional.
Research stays. Doctoral candidates will be able to participate in research stays at other national or foreign research centres in order to educate themselves in specific areas or to carry out research work in order to be awarded the International Doctorate mention. Research stays tend to require a minimum stay of three months and are often optional, but they are required for students who wish to be awarded the International Doctorate mention.
Attending conferences. Candidates will be able to attend national and international conferences both to give their own presentations and to network with other researchers. International conferences often schedule intensive courses on topics that are of specific interest to doctoral candidates.
External courses. The Academic Committee communicates to candidates information regarding these intensive courses that are on specific topics that could be of interest to those in the degree programme. For example, the committee reports information on the courses offered by the Barcelona Graduate School of Mathematics (BSGMath). In general, they are optional courses that last for one week
UPC courses. The Academic Committee will inform doctoral candidates about courses of interest to scientific research, such as those organised by the UPC libraries (bibliographic research; training in information skills; learning to identify when and why information is needed; where to find information and how to assess it, use it and communicate it ethically) and the Institute of Education Sciences (improving language and communication skills; and acquiring the set of knowledge, abilities and attitudes needed to interpret and produce messages and communicate effectively in various contexts). In general, these are one- or two-day optional courses.

Procedure for assignment of tutor and thesis director

The academic committee of the doctoral programme assigns a thesis supervisor to each doctoral candidate when they are admitted or enrol for the first time, taking account of the thesis supervision commitment referred to in the admission decision.

The thesis supervisor will ensure that training activities carried out by the doctoral candidate are coherent and suitable, and that the topic of the candidate’s doctoral thesis will have an impact and make a novel contribution to knowledge in the relevant field. The thesis supervisor will also guide the doctoral candidate in planning the thesis and, if necessary, tailoring it to any other projects or activities undertaken. The thesis supervisor will generally be a UPC professor or researcher who holds a doctoral degree and has documented research experience. This includes PhD-holding staff at associated schools (as determined by the Governing Council) and UPC-affiliated research institutes (in accordance with corresponding collaboration and affiliation agreements). When thesis supervisors are UPC staff members, they also act as the doctoral candidate’s tutor.

PhD holders who do not meet these criteria (as a result of their contractual relationship or the nature of the institution to which they are attached) must be approved by the UPC Doctoral School's Standing Committee in order to participate in a doctoral programme as researchers with documented research experience.

The academic committee of the doctoral programme may approve the appointment of a PhD-holding expert who is not a UPC staff member as a candidate’s thesis supervisor. In such cases, the prior authorisation of the UPC Doctoral School's Standing Committee is required. A UPC staff member who holds a doctoral degree and has documented research experience must also be proposed to act as a co-supervisor, or as the doctoral candidate’s tutor if one has not been assigned.

A thesis supervisor may step down from this role if there are justified reasons (recognised as valid by the committee) for doing so. If this occurs, the academic committee of the doctoral programme will assign the doctoral candidate a new thesis supervisor.

Provided there are justified reasons for doing so, and after hearing any relevant input from the doctoral candidate, the academic committee of the doctoral programme may assign a new thesis supervisor at any time during the period of doctoral study.

If there are academic reasons for doing so (an interdisciplinary topic, joint or international programmes, etc.) and the academic committee of the programme gives its approval, an additional thesis supervisor may be assigned. Supervisors and co-supervisors have the same responsibilities and academic recognition.

The maximum number of supervisors of a doctoral thesis is two: a supervisor and a co-supervisor.

For theses carried out under a cotutelle agreement or as part of an Industrial Doctorate, if necessary and if the agreement foresees it this maximum number of supervisors may not apply. This notwithstanding, the maximum number of supervisors belonging to the UPC is two.

More information at the PhD theses section

Permanence

The maximum period of study for full-time doctoral studies is four years, counted from the date of first enrolment in the relevant programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited. The academic committee of the doctoral programme may authorise a doctoral candidate to pursue doctoral studies on a part-time basis. In this case, the maximum period of study is seven years from the date of first enrolment in the programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited. To calculate these periods, the date of deposit is considered to be the date on which the thesis is made publicly available for review.

If a doctoral candidate has a degree of disability equal to or greater than 33%, the maximum period of study is six years for full-time students and nine years for part-time students.

If a doctoral candidate has not applied to deposit their thesis before the expiry of the deadlines specified in the previous section, the academic committee of the doctoral programme may, at the request of the doctoral candidate, authorise an extension of this deadline of one year under the conditions specified for the doctoral programme in question.

Dismissal from the doctoral programme
A doctoral candidate may be dismissed from a doctoral programme for the following reasons:

The doctoral candidate submitting a justified application to withdraw from the programme.
The doctoral candidate not having completed their annual enrolment or applied for a temporary interruption.
The doctoral candidate not having formalised annual enrolment on the day after the end of the authorisation to temporarily interrupt or withdraw from the programme.
The doctoral candidate receiving a negative reassessment after the deadline set by the academic committee of the doctoral programme to remedy the deficiencies that led to a previous negative assessment.
The doctoral candidate having been the subject of disciplinary proceedings leading to their suspension or permanent exclusion from the UPC.
A refusal to authorise the extensions applied for, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.3 of these regulations.
The doctoral candidate not having submitted the research plan in the period established in Section 8.2 of these regulations.
The maximum period of study for the doctoral degree having ended, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4 of these regulations.

Learning resources

The doctoral programme was given the Quality Award MCD2003-00128 from 2003 to 2009. In 2011 it was given the Excellence Award MEE2011-0384, which was renewed in 2012 and 2013. This gives the programme access to calls for mobility aid for professors (visiting professors who give classes in the programme), for thesis panels recognised across Europe and for students to achieve the European mention. In the recent 2011 call for mobility, this doctoral programme was awarded all of the aid that it requested: 3 for foreign professors to take part on panels for the European mention, 2 for visiting professors to teach classes in the programme’s Summer School and 3 for students to perform stays and earn the European mention. When the budget has allowed, the programme has also offered travel packages to help with the travel costs of attending conferences and completing stays. In 2011 a call was held and it ended up benefiting ten candidates in the programme.

Thesis abstract: Part of research in environmental epidemiology focuses on the assessment of associations betweenthe exposure to environmental factors and health outcomes based on aggregated longitudinal data in a given population. To model such associations, time series analysis is typically used, in which informational units are time points (e.g. days or weeks). An aggregated measure of the outcome at each time point (e.g. yearly mean cognitive test score or daily mortality count) is linked to an aggregated measure of exposure to some environmental factor of interest at the same time point (e.g. yearly mean air pollution level or daily mean ambient temperature) using a suitable regression (e.g. linear or Poisson) model. In this context, this thesis develops two studies.The first study deals with collinearity. Distributed lag models (DLNMs) have been increasingly used to model delayed effects of environmental factors on health. DLNMs include as predictors the same exposure measured at different time points. Those lagged variables are often highly correlated resulting in correlations between the estimated regression coefficients corresponding to different lags, which can lead to unreliable results. We first illustrate such problems and then propose a visual diagnosis tool to assess consequences of such collinearity. Essentially, new values of the outcome are simulated under an alternative hypothetical effect of the exposure of interest. Then, the original model is fitted again but now using the simulated data. Finally, both original and new results are compared graphically to assess if unexpected results obtained in the original analysis could be driven by collinearity. The tool is implemented in the R package collin. We provide illustrative examples and a user’s guide.The second study extends the Poisson regression model in multi-zone time series analysis for a count outcome. Those models need to control for trends and seasonality, which can be done by including time-stratum indicators (e.g. unique combinations of year, month and day of week). That implies having to include in the model a typically high number of nuisance parameters that can cause computational issues in the estimation process. This problem can be avoided with the conditional Poisson regression model, by conditioning by the sum of the outcome event counts in each stratum, which results in a multinomial regression model. By doing this, the nuisance parameters do not need to be estimated while the model provides relative risks (e.g. change in the mean mortality for a given increase in air pollution concentration) that are adjusted for long-term trends and seasonality. In cases of data from different geographical zones, a two-stage modelling procedure is usually performed, first analysing each zone separately and then combining zone-specific results into a single overall measure using, for instance, meta-analysis. A one-stage analysis, by analysing simultaneously data from all geographic zones, could be performed by including a random effect at zone level. However, the available (frequentist) software for conditional Poisson regression does not allow including random effects. In this context, we propose and develop a one-stage modelling approach, which is computationally feasible, namely Bayesian conditional Poisson mixed model, to analyse time series data for a count outcome that analyses all zones simultaneously while maintaining the good properties of the two-stage analysis. Our approach is based on conditioning out by the sum of the outcome event counts in each zone-time stratum and the inclusion of a random effect to model zone-specific association of interest. In addition, our method allows for including a spatial structure of the random effects as well as considering potential overdispersion. In the study, we derive model equations and implement the modelling procedure in R. To facilitate usage, we develop illustrative examples and provide code and data.

Thesis abstract: Machine learning (ML) is a branch of artificial intelligence that allows human capabilities to be imitated through various algorithms and techniques that learn from data using learning processes (supervised, unsupervised, or reinforcement) for decision-making with minimal human intervention. Classic ML models have generated great results in the automation of classification and regression processes in various areas. Within classification, artificial neural networks (ANN) have gained relevance due to their ability to learn and model complex nonlinear relationships. Similarly, the XGBoost model based on decision trees has demonstrated great efficiency, speed, scalability, and performance, winning several competitions. On the other hand, Bayesian inference has provided a probabilistic and revolutionary framework for optimizing machine learning models, with the implementation of uncertainty in the estimation process, combining evidence with prior beliefs, in order to reduce overfitting and improve predictions by adjusting parameters and hyperparameters.This research aims to optimize two classic machine learning techniques (artificial neural networks and XGBoost) for classification using Bayesian inference and to build a diabetes prevention model for the Ecuadorian population. The study begins with a theoretical and mathematical conceptualization of each algorithm, followed by an analysis of the various points of intervention, programming, and implementation of Bayesian models using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation techniques and variational inference (VI), validation using public databases, implementation of a client-server system with multiple specialized backends, and, finally, the development of a real application as predictors of type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes.As a result, a Bayesian model was implemented in artificial neural networks (ANN) at two inference points. The first adjusted the parameters at each backpropagation step; however, it presented itself as an option with a prohibitive computational overhead. As a second intervention, an adjustment was made to the activation function in the final layer, obtaining positive and computationally viable results. In the case of XGBoost, the predictions were adjusted at each boosting step before vectorization, demonstrating high predictive power in both the use of the MCMC technique and IV. Validation with the Pima Indians Diabetes database and the use of various distribution functions demonstrated the robustness and sensitivity of the implemented models, while generalization and consistency were verified through application to various databases. In all cases, results superior to or equal to those obtained using the traditional model were obtained, depending on the characteristics of the data.In addition, a web application (client-server) was implemented with Bayesian proposals, allowing users to interact with the models in an easy and intuitive way, with options for data loading, parameter configuration and probability distributions, estimation techniques (MCMC or IV), training-validation process or use of cross-validation, real-time results, and model download options. The application of the Bayesian proposal to a real case, such as the prediction of type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes, with data from Ecuadorian patients, presented encouraging results (accuracy = 99.47%), becoming the first predictive model for the three types of diabetes at the regional and national level, confirming that the use of this approach is an excellent alternative for the optimization of machine learning models.

Quality

The Validation, Monitoring, Modification and Accreditation Framework (VSMA Framework) for official degrees ties the quality assurance processes (validation, monitoring, modification and accreditation) carried out over the lifetime of a course to two objectives—the goal of establishing coherent links between these processes, and that of achieving greater efficiency in their management—all with the overarching aim of improving programmes.
