Robust OCTs: Investigating classification tree robustness

The application of machine learning in daily life requires interpretability and robustness. In this paper we try to make the process of building robust and interpretable decision trees more accessible. We do this by making the fitting of these models cheaper and simpler. We build on previous research and see if changing input data or the fitting...

Digital Fabrication of a Timber Bridge: Design, optimisation, fabrication and testing at global and connection level

Rapid developments of both new (digital) fabrication techniques and innovative software facilitate the possibility to design, check and construct objects with great complexity and uniqueness without a large price tag. After new techniques slowly entered the field of architecture, the next step is to apply them in civil engineering to design load...
