Hijdra, Rens (author)In Sustainable Software Engineering there is a need for tooling and guidelines for developers. In this research we aim to provide such guidelines. We find that for our experimental setup and set of benchmarks 500 samples gives results that are likely stable at a 1% threshold in their Relative Confidence Interval Width. Running benchmarks with a...master thesis 2024

Leciñana, I. (author), Renart, J. (author), Carreras, L. (author), Turon, A. (author), Zurbitu, J. (author), Tijs, B.H.A.H. (author)The main objective of this paper is to present a delamination benchmark test concept for composite materials that develop non-self-similar delamination in characterization specimens. The non-self-similar delamination is induced by rotating the loading blocks. The simplicity of the test allows for analyzing the loading mode history by...journal article 2024

van Loevezijn, Wout (author)Benchmarks for quantum network systems currently are an underrepresented subject in the research field. This paper evaluates how informative a distributed CNOT gate application is, in recognizing errors in the total quantum system. The goal is to decide whether it should be included as a benchmark in a newly developed benchmark suite for quantum...bachelor thesis 2023

Dekeling, Casper (author)In the development of any new technology, it is essential to have methods to assess the quality of a system, to compare different systems to one another, and to compare different versions of the same system, to see if changes to the system can actually be classified as improvements. For quantum networks, this is no different. To further develop...bachelor thesis 2023

MALIAPPIS, THOMAS (author)The rapid advancement of Quantum Network architectures necessitates a comprehensive and quantitative comparison to assess their effectiveness and performance. Unfortunately, there does not exist an implemented quantum network benchmark suite capable of determining the superior architecture. Hence, our study aims to establish the foundation for...bachelor thesis 2023

Federated learning: a comparison of methods: How do different Federated Learning frameworks compare?Cristea, Vlad (author)Federated Learning is a machine learning paradigm for decentralized training over different clients. The training happens in rounds where each client learns a specific model which is then aggregated by a central server and passed back to the clients. Since the paradigm’s inception, many frameworks that provide Federated Learning tools and...bachelor thesis 2023

Kant, Henk (author)As the sharing of machine learning (ML) models has increased in popularity, more so-called model zoos are created. These repositories facilitate the sharing of models and their metadata, and other people to find and re-use an existing model. However, the metadata provided for models is insufficient, with little focus on practical aspects of a...master thesis 2023

Sun, Zhu (author), Fang, Hui (author), Yang, J. (author), Qu, Xinghua (author), Liu, Hongyang (author), Yu, Di (author), Ong, Yew Soon (author), Zhang, Jie (author)Recently, one critical issue looms large in the field of recommender systems - there are no effective benchmarks for rigorous evaluation - which consequently leads to unreproducible evaluation and unfair comparison. We, therefore, conduct studies from the perspectives of practical theory and experiments, aiming at benchmarking recommendation...journal article 2023

Kević, Karlo (author), Kuveždić Divjak, Ana (author), Welle Donker, F.M. (author)The 2019 European Open Data Directive identifies geospatial data as data that could have a major impact on human activities (high-value data, HVD) and advocates its provision as open data (OD), i.e., without barriers to access and re-use. Although Croatia has implemented OD policies to support the provision of open data, many geospatial data...journal article 2023
