Owen, C.C. (author)The imminence of anthropogenic climate change has motivated a global energy transition towards sustainable power generation. Offshore wind—an important contributor to the energy transition—is expanding, not only in turbine size and number of installations, but also into regions with harsher environmental conditions. One of those conditions in...doctoral thesis 2024

Burr, Zach (author)Planet formation is a topic that still has many unanswered questions, particularly regarding the formation of wide orbit giant planets. Detecting more of these types of planets can aid understanding of how they form by giving examples of what kind of planets exist. Direct imaging is uniquely well suited to detecting these kinds of planets, which...master thesis 2024

de Vries, Chiel (author)Alzheimer's disease (AD) is becoming more prevalent as the world population gets older. The formation of Amyloid-beta (\AB) plaques is one of the pathologies related to AD. Recent work has shown that the \ab load in brain tissue has a negative correlation with cognitive performance in cognitively healthy centenarians. <br/>This work aims to...master thesis 2023

Ji, Ning (author)Emulsions, characterized as a metastable dispersion of one liquid into a second one in the presence of surface-active agents, have complex rheology that interests both physicists and industries. Depending on the volume fraction of the dispersed phase ($\phi$), emulsions can display both solid-like and liquid-like behavior. Rheometrical...master thesis 2023

Stellinga, Bram (author)The segmentation of anatomical structures in 3D medical images is crucial for various applications in the field of medical imaging. Fully automated methods often lack accuracy, while manual segmenting requires much time and effort from a user. Due to this, Active Learning approaches are being proposed to solve this by making the method...bachelor thesis 2023

Ilioudi, A. (author), Wolf, B.J. (author), Dabiri, A. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)The majority of computer vision architectures are developed based on the assumption of the availability of good quality data. However, this is a particularly hard requirement to achieve in underwater conditions. To address this limitation, plenty of underwater image enhancement methods have received considerable attention during the last...conference paper 2023

van Noppen, Thirza (author)Second-order Gaussian kernels have been utilized to develop three algorithms that could automatically extract ridge lines for hydrodynamic modelling. Isotropic second-order Gaussian kernels produce inaccurate lines at crossings and junctions. To avoid the malfunctioning of Second-order Gaussian kernels, one default and two alternative algorithms...master thesis 2022

Parakkat, A.D. (author), Memari, Pooran (author), Cani, Marie Paule (author)We introduce Delaunay Painting, a novel and easy-to-use method to flat-colour contour-sketches with gaps. Starting from a Delaunay triangulation of the input contours, triangles are iteratively filled with the appropriate colours, thanks to the dynamic update of flow values calculated from colour hints. Aesthetic finish is then achieved,...journal article 2022

(author), Hammernik, Kerstin (author), Correia, Teresa (author), Küstner, Thomas (author)Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading single cause of morbidity and mortality, causing over 17. 9 million deaths worldwide per year with associated costs of over $800 billion. Improving prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of CVD is therefore a global priority. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has emerged as a clinically...review 2022

Kievits, A.J. (author), Lane, R. (author), Carroll, E.C.M. (author), Hoogenboom, J.P. (author)Detailed knowledge of biological structure has been key in understanding biology at several levels of organisation, from organs to cells and proteins. Volume electron microscopy (volume EM) provides high resolution 3D structural information about tissues on the nanometre scale. However, the throughput rate of conventional electron microscopes...review 2022

Bonekamp, Jorge (author)Specular light reflections are the mirror-like reflections from a material interface. They appear in the observation of any illuminated surface. Specular reflections can be set apart from the diffuse reflection type, which has a random distribution of reflection directions. The radiance of the specular reflected light is governed by the Fresnel...master thesis 2021

Rogmans, Dani (author)Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have made significant strides in the field of image processing over the last decade. Different approaches have been taken and improvements have been suggested. This paper looks at a newer novelty to neural networks for image counting, which is based on single-pixel center localization instead of the...bachelor thesis 2021

Ziliotto Salamon, N. (author)Postprocessing has become a major component in movie and image production. This step is no longer a simple cleanup and cutting step, but it involves important manipulations that contribute to the atmosphere of a movie and the perception of a still image. Several movie studios spend a great part of their budget on it, as managing the post...doctoral thesis 2021

Wu, S. (author), Verschuur, D.J. (author), Blacquière, G. (author)In seismic exploration methods, imperfect spatial sampling at the surface causes a lack of illumination at the target in the subsurface. The hampered image quality at the target area of interest causes uncertainties in reservoir monitoring and production, which can have a substantial economic impact. Especially in the case of a complex...journal article 2021

Gilvari, H. (author), de Jong, W. (author), Schott, D.L. (author)With the recent increase in biomass pellet consumption, the mechanical degradation of pellets during transport and handling has become more important. ISO standard 17831-1 is an accepted global standard that is commonly used amongst researchers and industries to determine the mechanical durability of pellets. However, the measured mechanical...journal article 2020

Luo, X. (author), Ziliotto Salamon, N. (author), Eisemann, E. (author)Motion blur in a photo is the consequence of object motion during the image acquisition. It results in a visible trail along the motion of a recorded object and can be used by photographers to convey a sense of motion. Nevertheless, it is very challenging to acquire this effect as intended and requires much experience from the photographer....journal article 2019

Mouri Sardarabadi, A. (author), Leshem, A. (author), Van der Veen, A.J. (author)Aims. Image formation for radio astronomy can be defined as estimating the spatial intensity distribution of celestial sources throughout the sky, given an array of antennas. One of the challenges with image formation is that the problem becomes ill-posed as the number of pixels becomes large. The introduction of constraints that incorporate a...journal article 2016
