This thesis addresses the challenge of segmenting ultra-high-resolution images. Limitations of current approaches to segment these are that either detailed spatial contextual information is lost or many redundant computations are necessary. To overcome these issues, we propose a novel approach combining the U-Net architecture with domain...

The traumatic loss of a hand is a horrific experience usually followed by significant psychological, functional and rehabilitation challenges. Even though much progress has been made in the past decades, the prosthetic challenge of restoring the human hand functionality is still far from being achieved. Autonomous prosthetic hands showed...

Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved current state-of-the-art in image denoising, but require large datasets for training. Their performance remains limited on smaller real-noise datasets. In this paper, we investigate robust deep learning denoising using transfer learning. We explore the impact of dataset sizes, CNN parameter...

The production of cocoa beans contributes to 7.5% of European Union (EU) driven deforestation. For this reason, the recent European Union Deforestation-free Regulation (EUDR) requires producers to perform comprehensive tracking of cocoa farm extents. However, cocoa crops present unique detection challenges due to their complex canopy structure,...

To reduce computational efforts, surrogate models have been developed for dune erosion prediction. Current surrogate models can describe the relationship between the XBeach input and output (Athanasiou, 2022) and provides a prediction of a morphological indicator based on a parameterized input (profile shape parameters and hydrodynamics). In...

Transforming the global energy sector from fossil-fuel based to renewable energy sources is key to limiting global warming and efficiently achieving climate neutrality. The decentralized nature of the renewable energy system allows private households to install photovoltaic (PV) systems on their rooftops. In this context, planning an efficient...

Global warming causes coral bleaching which threatens the health and existence of coral reefs and therefore also the future of a lot of species, including human beings. Efforts to automate coral reef monitoring using annotated coral images to detect coral bleaching are hindered by the lack of a complete dataset that specifies the health and...

Nano quadcopters are small, agile, and cheap platforms well suited for deployment in narrow, cluttered environments. Due to their limited payload, nano quadcopters are highly constrained in processing power, rendering conventional vision-based methods for autonomous navigation incompatible. Recent machine learning developments promise high...

Automated reconstruction of detailed semantic 3D city models is challenging due to the need for high-resolution (HR) and large-scale input datasets, the ambiguous definition of the ensuing model, the intricacy of the processing pipeline, and its costs. Furthermore, existing methods mainly focus on geometry rather than semantics. Detailed...

Most deep learning models fail to generalize in production. Indeed, sometimes data used during training does not completely reflect the deployed environment. The test data is then considered out-of-distribution compared to the training data. In this paper, we focus on out-of-distribution performance for image classification. In fact,...

This research proposes a novel method to classify cognitive behavior based on eye-movement data. Most state-of-the-art approaches use conventional machine learning techniques needing manual feature extraction. This experiment explores the possibility of applying deep learning algorithms to cognitive activity recognition for feature extraction...

Traditional convolutional neural networks exhibit an inherent limitation, they can not adapt their computation to the input while some inputs require less computation to arrive at an accurate prediction than others. Early-exiting setups exploit this fact by only spending as much computation as is necessary and subsequently exiting the sample...

The possibility to improve an existing method by making (part of) it learnable is explored in this research. The work that this research extends added prior knowledge to a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to improve its performance when dealing with an illumination shift. The method used for the preprocessing, is the color invariant. The...

Earthquakes can do great harm to the environment and people's daily lives. Being able to predict an earthquake moments before it happens could therefore reduce harm and save human lives. Traditional methods have not been successful yet, but with the rise of techniques focused on deep learning, there is a growing interest to apply them to the...

Aside from developing methods to embed the equivariant priors into the architectures, one can also study how the networks learn equivariant properties. In this work, we conduct a study on the influence of different factors on learned equivariance. We propose a method to quantify equivariance and argue why using the correlation to compare...

<br/>The fight against the illegal hunting of African wildlife is a never-ending process. In order to preserve animal habitats and save them from extinction, many national parks utilize surveilling solutions to prevent, detect and locate intruders. One strategy to detect and locate the illegal hunters or so-called \textit{poachers} is to detect...

Deep Neural Network (DNNs) have increased significantly in size over the past decade. Partly due to this, the accuracy of DNNs in image classification and speech recognition tasks has increased as well. This enables a great potential for such models to be applied in real-world applications. However, due to their size, the compute and power...

Outstanding seizure detection algorithms using electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings have been developed over the past decade. These works mainly focus on best of class performance, which leads to computationally heavy solutions. This limits the applicability of these detection algorithms for hardware implementations such as field­programmable...

3D human pose estimation is a widely researched computer vision task that could be applied in scenarios such as virtual reality and human-robot interaction. With the lack of depth information, 3D estimation from monocular images is an inherently ambiguous problem. On top of that, unrealistic human poses have been overlooked in the majority of...

A Low-Pressure Micro-resistojet (LPM) is a type of in-space electrothermal propulsion system for satellites that works by heating low-pressure (50 to 300 Pa) fluid flowing through microchannels/slots (typically &lt;1 mm diameter) using resistive heating elements like thin-film Molybdenum. This thesis delineates a response surface based method to...
