(author), Gadiraju, Ujwal (author), Van Berkel, Niels (author), Wang, Danding (author), Chen, Si (author), Liu, Jiqun (author), Tag, Benjamin (author), Goncalves, Jorge (author), Dingler, Tilman (author)AI systems are increasingly incorporated into human decision-making. Yet, human decision-makers are often affected by their cognitive biases. In critical settings, such as medical diagnosis, criminal judgment, or information consumption, these cognitive biases hinder optimal decision outcomes, thereby resulting in dangerous decisions and...conference paper 2023

Wang, H. (author), Wang, L. Z. (author), Askarinejad, A. (author), Hong, Y. (author), He, B. (author)Piles have been widely used as foundations to resist lateral loads. For the design of a laterally loaded pile, one of the most important inputs is the ultimate soil resistance (p<sub>ult</sub> = K<sub>ult</sub>Dσv<sup>′,whereK</sup>ult is the ultimate lateral soil resistance coefficient, D is the pile diameter, and σv<sup>′</sup> is the...journal article 2023

He, Y. (author), Joseph, G. (author)This paper presents novel cascaded channel estimation techniques for an intelligent reflecting surface-aided multiple-input multiple-output system. Motivated by the channel angular sparsity at higher frequency bands, the channel estimation problem is formulated as a sparse vector recovery problem with an inherent Kronecker structure. We solve...conference paper 2023

El Jouhri, A. (author), El Sharkawy, A. (author), Paksoy, H. (author), Youssif, O.K.S.A. (author), He, X. (author), Kim, S. (author), Happee, R. (author)Introduction: SAE Level 3 is known as conditional driving automation. As long as certain conditions are met, there is no need to supervise the technology and the driver can engage in non-driving related tasks (NDRTs). However, a human driver must be present and alert to take over when the automation is facing its system limits. When such an...journal article 2023

He, Bryan (author)Configuration management systems are a class of software used to automate system administrative tasks, one of which is the configuration of software systems. Although the automation is less error-prone than manual configuration done by a human, bugs in the source code can still cause configuration errors. This can result into unwanted...bachelor thesis 2022

(author)The role of prior austenite grain size (PAGS) on the passive layer properties of martensitic steels is studied. Electron backscatter diffraction analysis shows that PAGS between 5 and 66 µm were obtained after applying different heat treatments. The barrier properties of passive film deteriorate with grain refinement up to 28 µm, attributed to...journal article 2022

(author)How can we plan efficiently in a large and complex environment when the time budget is limited? Given the original simulator of the environment, which may be computationally very demanding, we propose to learn online an approximate but much faster simulator that improves over time. To plan reliably and efficiently while the approximate simulator...conference paper 2022
