Simons, Annabel (author)In today's society, claims are everywhere, in the online and offline world. Fact-checking models can check these claims and predict if a claim is true or false, but how can these models be checked? Post-hoc XAI feature attribution methods can be used for this. These methods give scores indicating the influence of the individual tokens on the...bachelor thesis 2023

de Kruif, Evan (author)In this research, a comparison between different Instance Attribution (IA) methods and k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) via cosine similarity is conducted on a Natural Language Processing (NLP) machine learning model. The format in which the comparison is made is by way of a human survey and automated similarity comparisons of representative vectors....bachelor thesis 2023

Zamfirescu, Toma (author)Label-independent concept drift detectors represent an emerging topic in machine learning research, especially in models deployed in a production environment where obtaining labels can become increasingly difficult and costly. Concept drift refers to unforeseeable changes in the distribution of data streams, which directly impact the performance...bachelor thesis 2023

de Gruyl, Einar (author)This research presents a method for forecasting algal blooms using remote sensing with spatially and temporally sparse satellite data. The method involves the use of multiple interpolation methods to interpolate the sparse input data. The approach is shown to be effective in predicting algal blooms in areas where data is sparse, and the results...bachelor thesis 2023

Gökçe, Tolga (author)An algal bloom is defined as a rapid increase in common algae (phytoplankton) abundance in water bodies and it can occur when a group of certain environmental factors is combined. If the algae populations grow out of control, such algal blooms become problematic and cause damage to the ecosystem, such phenomena are called harmful algal blooms....bachelor thesis 2023

Kramer, Tim (author)The dramatic increase in the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has created rapid growth for exploitation of security flaws and vulnerabilities. Particularly for critical infrastructure and real-time systems security threats can be highly damaging. Machine Learning (ML) algorithms have demonstrated the ability to combat the security...bachelor thesis 2023

Bayraktar, Kerem (author)The term ”Algal Bloom” refers to the accumulation of algae in a confined geological space. They may harm human health and negatively affect ecological systems around the area. Thus, forecasting algal blooms could mitigate the environmental and socio-economical damages. Particularly, the use of deep learning methods could distinguish underlying...bachelor thesis 2023

André, Baptiste (author)When deployed in production, machine learning models sometimes lose accuracy over time due to a change in the distribution of the incoming data, which results in the model not reflecting reality any longer. A concept drift is this loss of accuracy over time. Drift detectors are algorithms used to detect such drifts. Drift detectors are important...bachelor thesis 2023

Li, Ruonan (author)Datasets play an important role in machine learning technology. The quality of a machine learning model is highly dependent on the quality of the training dataset. Datasets are of great economic value and should be viewed as intellectual property. To protect the property rights of machine learning training datasets, we can make use of the...bachelor thesis 2023

Flipse, Delano (author)The placement of a subwoofer has significant impact on the quality of its sound reproduction. This paper present a method to optimise subwoofer placement in a room. Resonances caused by room boundaries (called "room modes") cause localised peaks and lows for specific lower frequencies. The goal is to minimize the simulated frequency response...bachelor thesis 2023

Pohl, Jindřich (author)Concept drift is an unforeseeable change in the underlying data distribution of streaming data, and because of such a change, deployed classifiers over that data show a drop in accuracy. Concept drift detectors are algorithms capable of detecting such a drift, and unsupervised ones detect drift without needing the data’s actual labels, which can...bachelor thesis 2023

Janssen, Jeroen (author)The Internet of Things (IoT) is producing significant amounts of data. Protecting this data from adversaries is therefore a prominent field of research. This paper conducts a review of the current state-of-the-art in the field of IoT integrated with Blockchain (BC) and Machine Learning (ML). The review focuses on the use of privacy and...bachelor thesis 2023

Alvarez Lucendo, Rodrigo (author)Forecasting algal blooms using remote sensing data is less labour-intensive and has better cover- age in time and space than direct water sampling. The paper implements a deep learning technique, the UNet Architecture, to predict the chlorophyll concentration, which is a good indicator for al- gal bloom in the Rio Negro water reservoirs of...bachelor thesis 2023

van Smaalen, Mees (author)Reading is an essential skill for any child to learn, and finding enjoyment in it can greatly contribute to developing proper reading comprehension. Finding the books they like could prove to be difficult. Utilizing collaborative filtering recommender systems to recommend books to children is a tricky task, the lack of user feedback makes it...bachelor thesis 2023

Götz, Valentijn (author)Decision tree learning is widely done heuristically, but advances in the field of optimal decision trees have made them a more prominent subject of research. However, current methods for optimal decision trees tend to overlook the metric of robustness. Our research wants to find out whether the robustness of optimal decision trees can be...bachelor thesis 2023

Butzelaar, Sven (author)Machine learning can be used to classify patients in a hospital. Here, the classifier has to minimize the cost of misclassifying the patient and minimize the costs of the tests. Unfortunately, obtaining features may be costly, e.g., taking blood tests or doing an x-ray scan. Furthermore, it is possible that acquiring those test results may take...bachelor thesis 2023

Nierop, Jaden (author)Digital watermarking has been used extensively in media in recent years. Yet, there are still relatively few techniques for watermarking 3D meshes. In this paper we implement a watermarking algorithm proposed by O.
