AI on low-cost hardware: Microcontroller subgroup

The creation of effective computational models that function within the power limitations of edge de- vices is an important research problem in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI). While cutting-edge deep learning algorithms show promising results, they frequently need computing resources that are many orders of magnitude more than the...

Strengthening monumental timber floors with a reversible intervention to accommodate acoustic measures

For centuries timber has been the most commonly used material for constructions. All over the world examples of timber structures that date back from a few centuries are still standing today. The Netherlands feature about 60,000 national monuments with internally timber structures. These timber structures often need strengthening due to...

The flooding of the Kampereiland during storm and discharge induced breaching

The Kampereiland is an island located at the south eastern part of the IJsselmeer in the middle of the Netherlands. This island serves a purpose to lower water levels in the IJssel- and Vechtdelta during high water, by being inundated. This inundation is meant to result in lower water levels in the IJssel near Kampen. However, the flooding of...

Bringing back movement in Skydebanehaven: Designing a public condenser in the district Vesterbro in Copenhagen

Designing a public condenser in the district of Vesterbro in Copenhagen. As the theme of the project 'movement' increases the group of various people of different ages and cultures. Bringing back sport facilities and greenery improves both healthy living and reducing gentrification.

Automated land use classification: Supervised segmentation of road structures on aerial images using shape regression

Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence and Computer Vision have been showed to be promising for automated land use classification of remotely sensed data. However, current state-of-the-art per-pixel segmentation networks fail to accurately capture geometrical and topological properties on land use segmentation, as these methods have...

Design and Development of a Switchable Joint for Rehabilitation Purpose with the Focus on an Elbow Joint

Artificial elbow modules are used in orthoses and prostheses, whereby orthoses correct, align and support the body with skeletal or neuromuscular impairments [1]. Instead, prostheses replace missing body parts and compensate for lost functions [1]. However, most designs do not allow the natural arm swing based on their transmission design or the...

The Hebron Aquality Project: Electric Water Pumping for Bedouin & Fellahin Farmers in the West Bank, Palestine

This project is in partnership with Comet-ME, a public-benefit company operating in Southern mount Hebron, the West Bank. The proposed project seeks a solution for residents living in the region who do not have access to proper water services. The goal of the project is to provide Bedouin and Fellahin communities access to safe and reliable...

Efficient obstacle avoidance using autonomously generated navigation meshes

With the increasing demand for ever more depth and detail of modern video games, developers are faced with the problem of how to create and manage large amounts of content. One aspect of this is how to cheaply enable game entities to travel through their virtual worlds in a natural and realistic fashion. Game map sizes and complexity have...

Wat is het effect van een inundatiepolder op de boezemwaterstand?

In september 1994 heeft men in Noord-Holland te maken gehad met wateroverlast. De waterstanden op de boezems stegen tot onacceptabele hoogten en enkele boezemkades dreigden te bezwijken. Deze wateroverlast was een gevolg van overvloedige regenval en beperkte lozingscapaciteit. Een mogelijke oplossing om te hoge waterstanden te voorkomen is het...

Implementatiestrategie voor stelsels asynchroon communicerende processen.

At the faculty Telecommunication and Trafficcontrol systems of the TU-Delft research up on methods to examine properties of protocols, like possible deadlocks and/of livelocks, is being done. Also the possible use of methods to extract a valid implementation from the formal protocol-specification is examined. With the use of the process-algebra ...
