Janssen, Britt (author)Quantile regression is a useful method to analyse data such that the estimates are more robust to outliers and the conditional distributions are more reliable for asymmetric distributions with respect to the commonly used ordinary least squares regression. Besides this, the quantile regression analysis might also include extra information on the...bachelor thesis 2023

Boringa, Marijn (author), van Erp, Job (author), Ploumen, Corné (author)Over the years, care givers in nursing homes have seen their workload gradually increase. With no end of this trend in sight, the need for smart support systems increases. Especially systems which decrease the time spent on menial tasks are valued highly, because this frees more time for high quality and personal care.<br/>To achieve this, Momo...bachelor thesis 2022

Bennebroek, Arthur (author), Ramezani, Shayan (author)To make open door policies easier in nursing homes, it is important to have a smart system that can check whether access is allowed for the person trying to enter some place or not. This thesis documents how an access control system has been built, for Momo Medical, to be used at a nursing home. It sheds light on hardware considerations made and...bachelor thesis 2022

Delboo, Maxime (author)This thesis contains a rigorous derivation of the path integral formulation of the Isingmodel with multiple original proofs. Besides that, thesis also contains various resultsof simulations of the 2D square lattice Ising Model with nearest-neighbour interactionsusing the Swendsen-Wang algorithm. Using finite size scaling to find critical...bachelor thesis 2022

Cohen, Hod (author)Malaria is both an economically and medically burdensome disease taunting people worldwide. Treatments for the disease – transmitted by malarial Aedes and Anopheles mosquitoes infected with Plasmodium – are either temporary or in developmental stages, while rising insecticidal resistance and mosquitoes’ behavioral changes call for a lasting...bachelor thesis 2022

van Kempen, Matt (author)In this paper we started by explaining what a Markov chain is. After this we defined some key concepts such as stationarity, reversibility and ergodicity which were used throughout the rest of the paper. Next, the classical central limit theorem was stated in order to refresh the reader of this theorem and to show that, because of the dependence...bachelor thesis 2022

van der Wilt, Pieter (author)The traditional Eulerian view of biomass in bioprocess modelling results in issues when modelling large-scale bioreactors in which heterogeneous conditions are common. As the field increasingly moves from “scale-up” to “scale-down” philosophy, in which such heterogeneities are included from the start of process design, accurate modelling of the...bachelor thesis 2022

Fillerup, Chai (author)Quantum communication has been shown to be vastly superior to classical communication in many problems. However no general statements exist which tells us how much better quantum communication is to its classical counterpart. In this thesis it was studied the minimum amount of classical bits required to exactly simulate a quantum communication...bachelor thesis 2022

Ates, Matthijs (author)The aim of this thesis is to simulate quantum spin chains at a finite temperature. This has been achieved by using purification to write the incoherent thermal states of the spin chain as pure states, after which the matrix product state (MPS) formalism to simulate the spin chain. The influence of temperature on the spin chain has been tested by...bachelor thesis 2022

Gort, Timo (author)<i>Context.</i> In the near-future, exoplanets can be observed directly through telescopes. Although the resolution of the planet's image will only be one pixel at first, the intensity of this pixel will change over time because of the orbit around its host star and its diurnal rotation. This intensity as a function of time is called the light...bachelor thesis 2022

Ronner, Arthur (author)In this report, a model is presented to alleviate some of the computational work that goes into the effort of finding the magnetic properties of magnetocaloric materials. The model utilizes an interior point optimization routine to solve for the minimal exchange energy configuration of a system, given the exchange interactions of the material....bachelor thesis 2022

Koot, Kees (author)In this thesis the behaviour of a Bose Einstein condensate is explored that consists of bosons that annihilate. In order to do this a system where bose einstein condensation occurs is modeled as a Zero Range process which is a special case of a Markov process.<br/>First we made a single slow site Zero range process with uniform rates and see how...bachelor thesis 2022

Polshchykova, Zoya (author)In this thesis, gate set tomography (GST) has been conducted on the nitrogen vacancy center (NV). Gate set tomography is a protocol for characterization of logic operations (gates) on quantum computing processors. The NV’s electron served as a qubit. The quantum circuits were run both experimentally as well as on an NV-simulator. GST is...bachelor thesis 2022

Aliberti, Dylan (author)The aim of this thesis was to test the efficiency in practice of an analytical propagator with collision detection for <i>N</i>-body Keplerian systems. This can be used to simulate the evolution of a protoplanetary disk, which gives insight into how planetary systems form. The analytic propagator calculates collisions one by one, while a...bachelor thesis 2022

Krouwels, Berend (author)Dit onderzoek gaat over de mogelijkheden en onmogelijkheden met betrekking tot constructies met passer en ongemarkeerde liniaal. Hier werken we met de euclidische meetkunde en zullen we dus ook beginnen met de vijf postulaten van Euclides en een aantal toepassingen ervan. Er zal besproken worden wat het betekent voor een punt of constructie om...bachelor thesis 2022

Gajadhar, Vivek (author)Dose calculations in proton therapy need to be computed as fast as possible for successful cancer treatment planning and execution. The dose calculation algorithms that provide enough accuracy for treatment planning, takes too much time to utilise; therefore there is a need for faster alternatives. One of the alternatives is using a...bachelor thesis 2022

Neves Almeida Lopes, Tamira (author)When looking up to the sky and trying to detect the photons of far away stars that are still in formation, we can get access to knowledge we never had before. In order to do this, we must make sure we truly understand the nature of how photons behave in accordance to each other and to our detectors.In quantum optics we can see that these photons...bachelor thesis 2022

Arens, Patricia (author)In the last decades there has been an increasing interest in computing the local strain at the atomic scale of materials. By knowing aspects of the local strain in a lattice, one has information about measurements of distortions of lattice parameters concerning shifts, deformations and defects computed with respect to a smooth, defect-free...bachelor thesis 2022
