Chen, Ivo (author)Large language models (LMs) are increasingly used in critical tasks, making it important that these models can be trusted. The confidence an LM assigns to its prediction is often used to indicate how much trust can be placed in that prediction. However, a high confidence can be incorrectly trusted if it turns out to be incorrect, also known as a...master thesis 2024

Chen, Yuwei (author)Our understanding of mental workload (MWL) is still limited compared to well-known physiological data like blood pressure and heart rate. MWL measures the cognitive resources required for tasks against what's available. Innovative technologies offer more comprehensive and objective cognitive data, but their impact on individuals and their...master thesis 2024

Chen, Hsukang (author)To achieve greater specificity in neurostimulation, bidirectional neural interfaces are required to verify the recorded neural response after stimulation. The specific neural interface targeted in this thesis is the epiretinal implant. Due to the heterogeneity of the retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), high-fidelity vision is only possible when all...master thesis 2024

Zhang, Liang (author), Li, Guang (author), Chen, Huang (author), Tang, Jingtian (author), Yang, Guanci (author), Yu, Mingbiao (author), Hu, Yong (author), Xu, Jun (author), Sun, J. (author)Audio magnetotelluric (AMT) is commonly used in mineral resource exploration. However, the weak energy of AMT signals makes them susceptible to being overwhelmed by noise, leading to erroneous geophysical interpretations. In recent years, deep learning has been applied to AMT denoising and has shown better denoising performance compared to...journal article 2024

Jan, A. (author), Chen, M. (author), Nijboer, Michiel (author), Luiten-Olieman, Mieke W.J. (author), Rietveld, L.C. (author), Heijman, Sebastiaan (author)Sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) is widely used for the chemical cleaning of fouled ultrafiltration (UF) membranes. Various studies performed on polymeric membranes demonstrate that long-term (>100 h) exposure to NaClO deteriorates the physicochemical properties of the membranes, leading to reduced performance and service life. However, the effect...journal article 2024

Chen, Mingzhe (author), Ramachandra Rao, P. (author), Venialgo Araujo, E. (author)In direct time-of-flight (D-TOF) light detection and ranging (LIDAR), accuracy and full-scale range (FSR) are the main performance parameters to consider. Particularly, in single-photon avalanche diodes (SPAD) based systems, the photon-counting statistics plays a fundamental role in determining the LIDAR performance. Also, the intrinsic...journal article 2024
