An AI algorithm to predict intubations in ICU patients: Predicting intubation to aid medical personnel in the decision to switch from High Flow Nasal Oxygen therapy to intubation

Maasstad Hospital is a member of the Santeon hospital group. The ambition of Santeon is to improve healthcare for patients. The project in this internship also aims to improve patients’ health, specifically patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).<br/>The treatment of respiratory insufficient patients in the ICU consists of High Flow Nasal...

Model-specific Explainable Artificial Intelligence techniques: State-of-the-art, Advantages and Limitations

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine learning (ML) applications are being widely used to solve different problems in different sectors. These applications have enabled the human-effort and involvement to be very low. The AI/ML systems<br/>make their own predictions and do not require a great deal of human help. However, over the last few...

Reinforcement Learning for Quadcopter Fault Tolerance: Analyzing Hierarchical and Online Deep Reinforcement Learning for Quadcopter Fault Tolerant Control

The demand of adding fault tolerance to quadcopter control systems has significantly increased with the rise of adoption of UAVs in numerous sectors. This work proposes and demonstrates the use of Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning to control a quadcopter subject to severe actuator fault. State-of-the-art algorithms are implemented, and a...

Global shoreline forecasting with a clustering approach

Coastal areas around the world have always been densely populated areas. However, sea-level-rise and an increase in single extreme events due to climate change, threaten the coastal areas and their inhabitants. Governmental organizations, coastal managers and various private parties thrive for better insights into long-term shoreline behavior...

Deep Reinforcement Learning with Feedback-based Exploration

Deep Reinforcement Learning enables us to control increasingly complex and high-dimensional problems. Modelling and control design is longer required, which paves the way to numerous in- novations, such as optimal control of evermore sophisticated robotic systems, fast and efficient scheduling and logistics, effective personal drug dosing...

DeepSleep: A sensor-agnostic approach towards modelling a sleep classification system

Sleep is a natural state of our mind and body during which our muscles heal and our memories are consolidated. It is such a habitual phenomenon that we have been viewing it as another ordinary task in our day-to-day life. However, owing to the current fast-paced, technology-driven generation, we are letting ourselves be sleep-deprived, giving...

Artificial Intelligence in Customs Risk Management for e-Commerce: Design of a Web-crawling Architecture for the Dutch Customs Administration

The last decade saw the rise of e-commerce trade and the shift of the manufacturing industry to the emerging economies, China first of all. In this context, the European Customs Authorities experienced an explosion of small parcels coming from e-commerce websites, often from China, and faced difficulties to detect fiscal frauds and security...
