Using K-Means clustering to export a NeRF for faster rendering in CG applications while preserving view-dependent appearance

With the current state-of-the-art research, exporting a NeRF to a mesh has the side effect of having to evaluate a Multi Layer Perceptron at render-time, causing a significant decrease in performance. We have found a way to use K-Means clustering to pre-compute values for this MLP, storing them in multiple octahedron maps for the GPU to fetch...

Getting AI to Cooperate: Sharing a Critic in a Video Game

The popular video game "Overcooked" is a great example of a task requiring complex planning and cooperation with other players. This game is used as the inspiration for an environment for evaluating AI, called "Overcooked-AI". This paper implements a centralized critic into the Overcooked-AI environment's implementation of the PPO algorithm and...

IoT-Based Smart Classroom: Hardware, BSc Graduation Project

In this work, we propose an IoT smart classroom framework which will be the base for smart classroom and hybrid teaching applications. The prototype introduces sensor readout capabilities, which can be used to monitor: temperature, humidity, and loudness in a classroom. Furthermore, the prototype introduces capabilities to collect and display...

Designing a dashboard for wellbeing data: A recommendation system for individual wellbeing

Due to COVID-19 the overall wellbeing worldwide decreased. Assessing and improving wellbeing became a more important subject. This article describes the design research that uses the My Wellness Check survey created by the Delft University for Technology and aims to create a dashboard for wellbeing. That includes a way of authenticating users to...

Predicting speaking status using full 9 Degrees Of Freedom Inertial MeasurementUnit (IMU) data

The goal for this paper is to find out what the smart badge provided by the Social Perceptive Computive Lab (SPCL) group is and what it contains. The sensors that are used in the smart badge are the Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Magnetometer. The main question of this paper is ”What is the benefit of using full 9-DOF IMU data in predicting...

Bethlehem: from exploitation to ecosystem service

Bethlehem - from exploitation to ecosystem service, is a project based on Sint Maarten in the Caribbean. The lower social classes of Sint Maarten experience trouble with their building culture, especially in combination with the reoccurring hurricanes and earthquakes. Vulnerable communities mostly rely on self or communal building, since both...

Learning by Doing: Re-imagining craft education

Naval Archive, the subversion of order

The graduation master of the public building studio focused this year on the topic of the biennale of Venice; ‘Palazzo Enciclopedico’, combined with the city of Istanbul. Since the beginning of my master architecture am I highly interested in the fundamental orders for the built environment. The combination with the public realm made me realize...

Incorporating the traveller's experience value in assessing the quality of transit nodes: A Rotterdam case study

In order to obtain a modal shift from car towards public transport, the quality of a public transport journey has to be increased. The transfer is the least valued part of the journey where a traveller perceives one minute of waiting as three minutes. By improving the least valued part, the overall quality of a public transport journey increases...

Shallow foreshore wave height statistics

Wave height distributions on shallow foreshores deviate from those in deep water due to the effects of the restricted depth-to-height ratio and of wave breaking. Laboratory data of wave heights on shallow foreshores of different slopes have been analysed to determine these effects and to derive generalised empirical parameterisation. A model...

Storingsonderzoek aan en herziening ontvangergedeelte van een 100 kbit/s inductief datatransmissie-systeem voor (openbaar) vervoerstoepassingen

VECOM is een 100 kbit/s inductief datacommunicatie-systeem voor voertuigen. Er wordt gebruik gemaakt van half duplex synchrone communicatie en MSK modulatie. Er is onderzoek gedaan naar optredende storing en hiervan is een storingsmodel gedefinieerd. Verder is een meer storingsbestendige ontvanger ontworpen, gebaseerd op klokreconstructie met...
