Martonová, Denisa (author), Peirlinck, M. (author), Linka, Kevin (author), Holzapfel, Gerhard A. (author), Leyendecker, Sigrid (author), Kuhl, Ellen (author)For more than half a century, scientists have developed mathematical models to understand the behavior of the human heart. Today, we have dozens of heart tissue models to choose from, but selecting the best model is limited to expert professionals, prone to user bias, and vulnerable to human error. Here we take the human out of the loop and...journal article 2024

Holtgrefe, Tim (author)Microtubules are long cylindrical polymers, assembled from tubulin proteins. Microtubule ends can be visualized using fluorescence and confocal microscopy. This allows for the study of microtubule dynamics. However, the manual annotation of microtubules is laborious, which is why automated tracking methods are used. In this project we have...bachelor thesis 2023

van Asselt, Koen (author)To reduce computational efforts, surrogate models have been developed for dune erosion prediction. Current surrogate models can describe the relationship between the XBeach input and output (Athanasiou, 2022) and provides a prediction of a morphological indicator based on a parameterized input (profile shape parameters and hydrodynamics). In...master thesis 2023

Blom, Joris (author)Fog plays a major role in chain collisions. Proper fog detection is essential for the Dutch road authority to anticipate foggy weather conditions. Dozens of stations in the Netherlands can measure fog. However, fog can be a very local phenomenon. Therefore, more local measurements are needed. There are about 5,000 traffic cameras in...master thesis 2023

MENG, YUQI (author)Traditionally, archaeological investigations, especially archaeological remains detection, mostly depend on human observation. In order to find the objects in large areas, a lot of fieldwork has to be done and it takes a long time for archaeologists to travel around. Nowadays, the development of LIDAR provides accurate 3D geometric information,...master thesis 2023

Theisen, M.F. (author), Nishizaki Flores, K.F. (author), Schulze Balhorn, L. (author), Schweidtmann, A.M. (author)Advances in deep convolutional neural networks led to breakthroughs in many computer vision applications. In chemical engineering, a number of tools have been developed for the digitization of Process and Instrumentation Diagrams. However, there is no framework for the digitization of process flow diagrams (PFDs). PFDs are difficult to...journal article 2023
