Weißhaar, Thaddäus (author)European cities are implementing diverse strategies to curtail car usage. Understanding the impact of these policies necessitates insights into mode choice behaviour. However, for conventional discrete choice models, utility specifications must be defined upfront, potentially leading to misleading policy recommendations. This problem is solved...student report 2023

Khaleghi, Aaron (author)The consumer lending domain has increasingly leveraged Artificial Intelligence (AI) to make loan approval processes more efficient and to make use of larger amount of information to predict their applicants’ repayment ability. Over time, however, valid concerns have been raised about whether decisions made about individuals using these data...master thesis 2020

Andringa, Sytze (author)Enterprise Modelling (EM) is the process of producing models, which in turn can be used to support understanding, analysis, (re)design, reasoning, control and learning about various aspects of an enterprise. Various EM techniques and languages exist, and are often supported by computational tools, in particular simulation. The goal of this...master thesis 2021

Veldhuis, Marthe (author)Using machine learning to determine the number of contributors (NOC) in short tandem repeat (STR) mixture DNA profiles has been shown to obtain good accuracy. However, the models used so far are not transparent to users as they only output a prediction without any reasoning for that conclusion. Therefore, we leverage techniques from the field of...master thesis 2021

Bilstra, Cas (author)Machine learning models are increasing in popularity and are nowadays used in a wide range of critical applications in fields such as Automotive, Aviation and Medical. Among machine learning models, tree ensemble models are a popular choice due to their competitive performance and high degree of explainability. Like most machine learning models...master thesis 2021

Janssens, Martin (author)Today's leading projections of climate change predicate on Atmospheric General Circulation Models (GCMs). Since the atmosphere consists of a staggering range of scales that impact global trends, but computational constraints prevent many of these scales from being directly represented in numerical simulations, GCMs require "parameterisations'' -...master thesis 2019

Chen, Linda (author)Background: Histopathological examination in the diagnostic workflow of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is essential. We aimed to develop a machine learning pipeline to predict human papillomavirus (HPV) status in OPSCC patients based on clinical variables and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). <br/>Methods: In a...master thesis 2023

Gerling, Jan (author)Refactorings tackle the challenge of architectural degradation of object-oriented software projects by improving its internal structure without changing the behavior. Refactorings improve software quality and maintainability if applied correctly. However, identifying refactoring opportunities is a challenging problem for developers and...master thesis 2020

Huijing, Jasper (author)RANS simulation are one of the most used tools for aerodynamic analysis. The advantage of RANS simulations is the reduced computational cost compared to other methods such as LES or DNS. This is because by solving the RANS equations one only solves for the mean flow. However, this reduction in computational cost comes at the price of uncertainty...master thesis 2020

Dentro, S.C. (author)Next generation sequencing is brought into the clinic. Screening of disease associated genes will aid the diagnosis of disorders with a genetic component. The diagnosis of cancer is of particular interest due to its variety and prevalence. The obtained mutations provide clues about underlying biological properties that could be used for...master thesis 2013

Hassan, Lotfy (author)Airlines experience schedule disruptions on a daily basis. Poor weather conditions, unscheduled aircraft maintenance and congested air spaces are just a few of the causes that prevent airlines from operating their flight schedules as planned. In the third quarter of 2017 over 20% of all scheduled flights in Europe suffered from delays. Operation...master thesis 2019

Roozendaal, Tjark (author)This report concerned the development of a soft robotic module for a seat pan, its optimization and application. The soft robotic module has an LED and photosensors for determining the distance of indentation and the passive force created by compressing the foam spring inside. An air pressure sensor is used to determine the active force created...master thesis 2021

Viering, T.J. (author)In many settings in practice it is expensive to obtain labeled data while unlabeled data is abundant. This is problematic if one wants to train accurate (supervised) predictive models. The main idea behind active learning is that models can perform better with less labeled data, if the model may choose the data from which it learns. Active...master thesis 2016

Bekker, Bernard (author)Large cities in the Netherlands, like Rotterdam, have hundreds of playgrounds, but local governments have little information on how children and adults use them. Usage data can help create playgrounds that better fit with the residents' needs by identifying what elements of a playground are the most popular, and which do not get used. The AMS...master thesis 2020

Sulzer, Raphael (author)The seismic building structural type (SBST) reflects the main load-bearing structure of a building and therefore its behaviour under seismic load. For numerous areas in earthquake prone regions this information is outdated, unavailable, or simply not existent. Traditional methods to gather this information, such as building-by-building...master thesis 2018

SOULIOTIS, MARINOS (author)In the race for cost reduction in the offshore wind industry, support structure optimization leading to weight reduction plays a prominent role. The fatigue limit state is often the driving consideration for support structure design. Monitoring the monopile loads can offer an accurate knowledge of its consumed and remaining fatigue lifetime,...master thesis 2017

Pleij, Markus (author)With climate change increasing its mark on all aspects of the hydrological cycle, societies all over the world living in flood-prone areas are increasingly exposed to flood hazards. In many parts of the world, especially in less developed areas, societies lack knowledge and data to predict future flood events. By predicting a future flood event,...master thesis 2020

Smit, Jim (author)Background: The covid-19 pandemic has overwhelmed hospitals worldwide and clinical prediction models may assist in timely identification of covid-19 patients at risk for clinical deterioration, i.e. `early warning'. In this article, we report on the development and validation of a new early warning model that predicts unplanned ICU admission or...master thesis 2021

Förstel, Irène (author)Nowadays does the internet presence of companies increase, and with it, their attack surface and the probability of breaches: every information system in the company's network may be an entry point for an outsider. Therefore, companies need to secure their information systems. However, current risk assessment frameworks fail to connect the...master thesis 2021
