Preserving Inter-gene Relations During Test Case Generation using Intelligent Evolutionary Operators

Randomized variational operators can be very disruptive to the search process, especially when there exist dependencies between the variables under search. Within test-cases, these dependencies exist as well. This makes it interesting to evaluate the benefits of preserving these dependencies during test-case generation.<br/><br/>In this paper,...

Procedural automation of general game level generation: the good, the bad and the ugly

The monumental goal of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is to model general solutions that can be applied to perform a variety of tasks that normally demand human intelligence to solve. Traditionally human game developers painstakingly design and tweak levels until achieving the precise output of their heart’s desire. In the gaming industry, AI for...

Analysis of Steady Multiphase Flow in Porous Media: Across a Hypothetical 2D Percolating Network

Steady multiphase flow in two-dimensional (2D) porous media has not been established without the continuous fluctuation in pore occupancy. Cox (2019) proves the ability of liquid to bridge a gas-filled pore throat that is narrow and deeply etched, allowing liquid and gas to flow simultaneously. In this investigation, a pore network study was...

Battery Free Jogger Light: Energy Harvester

This thesis treats designing and building a linear generator which is used to power the Battery Free Jogger Light. This harvester needs to be able to generate power from the movement of a jogger. This Battery Free Jogger Light is meant to be used by people while jogging in dark environments to improve their visibility and thus safety. The...

On Covariant Emergent Gravity

This Bachelor thesis is on Covariant Emergent Gravity (CEG): a covariant formulation by Sabine Hossenfelder of the ideas of Erik Verlinde on gravity as an emergent force. In this work, the ideas of Erik Verlinde are presented as well as the field equations of CEG. The aim of this thesis is to find experimentally verifiable results for CEG. From...

Automatic Generation of Legally and Ethically Correct Email Replies

In this paper, we will explain how our research into a classified field resulted in the creation of an entity recognizer that can recognize 10 different characteristics, and an intent classifier which is able to classify 21 different intents and automatically generate a response to incoming emails. This is all done within legal and ethical...

Project Delphi: What is Innovation?

Being a company with over 1500 employees, a lot of data is available about people and their day-to-day pursuits, including projects they are working on. Company X has requested to gain more insight into this data, as it is currently scattered over multiple systems. Specifically, they requested to gain insight into which projects have been...

Comparing Quantitative Metrics for Generative Adversarial Neural Networks

Since their conception in 2014, a large number of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) [2] has been pro- posed and developed. GANs have achieved great results in realistic image generation, among other fields. Recently, stunning images have been produced. The theory and application of GANs has received much attention. However, the evaluation...

Design and fabrication of a measurement interface for smart IoT sensors: Signal generation and hardware control

This project is to design and implement a reconfigurable measurement interface for Internet of Things sensors, for the Microelectronics Department of the Delft University of Technology. This thesis will discuss the functionality and design process taken in designing such a reconfigurable measurement interface, focusing on generating signals and...

Exploiting synthetic images for real-world image recognition

Creating big datasets is often difficult or expensive which causes people to augment their dataset with rendered images. This often fails to significantly improve accuracy due to a difference in distribution between real and rendered datasets. This paper shows that the gap between synthetic and real-world image distributions can be closed by...

Arbitrary Waveform Generator for a High Frequency Arbitrary Waveform Neural Stimulator

The goal of this Bachelor graduation project is to make an electrical stimulator that can be used to help people empty their urinary bladder. Patients that are unable to relax the urethral sphincter are most commonly treated by mechanically emptying the bladder or by sacral root stimulation where the roots are selectively cut. <br/><br/>The...

Automated report generation from agricultural robot log data

Note: some parts of the abstract have been censored to hide company secrets.<br/><br/>This project was performed for Orchid N.V., an innovator in agriculture. The project focuses on their Scalar system. This is a system that consists out of multiple machines that automatically feed cows. While farmers are generally pleased with these systems, --...

Generating a full 3D Model of The Windmill (Molen de Roos)

Merging interior and exterior laser scanning point clouds of the historical windmill, completing the missing parts from airborne laser scanning data and trying different mesh generation methods for full 3D windmill model generation in order to be able to perform virtual visits in the future.

De elektromechanische omzetting voor het draagbare fitnessapparaat DISQ

Deze bachelor afstudeerthesis gaat over het ontwerpen van een elektrische versie van het fitnessapparaat DISQ. De DISQ is een bestaand product, dat bestaat uit twee katrollen die op een heupband zijn gemonteerd. Door middel van wrijving wordt mechanische weerstand gecreëerd, voelbaar als het koord wordt uitgetrokken. Doordat er gebruik wordt...

Effect of oil on foam flow in porous media modeled by the Stochastic Bubble Population model

The Stochastic Bubble Population (SBP) model invented in 2006 by Prof. Dr. Zitha has been improved to take in account for the oil presence in the porous medium through which foam flows. The assumptions of the SBP model are that foam flow in porous media is a complex fluid and bubble generation is a stochastic process. The SBP model is a simple...

Rapid and Efficient Procedural Building Generation

Het modelleren van steden en andere geometrische objecten gaat voor veel projecten steeds meer tijd kosten omdat de verwachtingen steeds hoger zijn. Het is ook mogelijk om steden procedureel te genereren, wat natuurlijk veel tijd scheelt. Onze doelstelling was om een zo flexibel mogelijk framework te creëren, waarin het mogelijk is om toch snel...
