Rang, Jugo (author)This paper presents a novel approach for the estimation of conditional multivariate cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) within a nonparametric framework. To achieve this, we introduce a binary random variable that indirectly represents conditional CDFs and construct a dataset by pairing input vectors with the binary variables. We developed...master thesis 2023

van der Linden, Hidde (author)In light of growing environmental challenges, the need to reconsider how we approach personal transportation is becoming increasingly evident. A shift from a private car-focused mobility system towards a more sustainable and equitable transportation system is desired. Car sharing is considered a means to achieve this. However, car sharing use...master thesis 2023

Corak, Nino (author)One possible way of proving the famous and important Riemann hypothesis would be to realize the Riemann zeta zeroes as the eigenvalues of some self-adjoint operator, using self-adjointness to show that the non-trivial zeroes all lie on the critical line. This is known as the Hilbert-Polya conjecture. Interpreting such a self-adjoint operator as...bachelor thesis 2023

Kaiser, Alina (author)Global temperatures are rising, and climate change is leading to an increase in extreme weather events such as heatwaves, droughts, floods, storms and fires (WMO, 2022). The increase in unusually hot days and heatwaves is also noticeable in Melbourne, Australia. By 2050, Melbourne is projected to have an annual average of 16 hot days above 35°C ...master thesis 2023

Borren, Noor (author)Introduction: Trauma-induced rib fractures are a common injury, affecting millions of individuals globally each year. Although anteroposterior thoracic radiographs are part of the standard posttraumatic screening, the most sensitive modality, and therefore golden standard for diagnosing rib fractures, is computed tomography (CT). Still, between...master thesis 2023

Lavana Perez, Matthew (author)Urban environments must be prepared to address the impacts of climate change and mitigate its repercussions. The rapidly surging rate of urbanization is expected to instigate significant land use and land cover changes, through expansion and densification of the built environment, on top of urban population growth. The Netherlands, a highly...master thesis 2023

Zwinkels, Anouk (author)<b>Introduction</b>: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an important therapeutic option for various neurological diseases. For certain indications the optimal target cannot be identified on structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), but can be visualized with tractography. A recent improvement for clinical practice is the probabilistic...master thesis 2023

Aguilera Chaves, Mónica (author)Breakwaters are built in coastal zones to alter sediment transport, or protect threatened habitats and port facilities. The rising sea level is causing more water to overtop these structures. Increasing amounts of overtopping discharge can compromise the security of people, or equipment standing on the crest of breakwaters. The overtopping flow...master thesis 2023

van der Poel, Fabian (author)In the early project phase, decisions are made when considering a port basin berth layout that affects the outcome and the success of the project. In order to make a decision regarding the berth layout, port planners create a set of variants for comparison and assessment in order to pick the basin berth layout that suits the project goals the...master thesis 2023

Delval, Mona (author)Food loss and waste (FLW) generation is a global issue that has recently gained an increasing attention. It has previously been estimated that approximately one third of all food globally produced is wasted. Recently, other accounts have been made, for various food products and focusing on various geographical scopes, sometimes disaggregating...master thesis 2023
