Heijdra, Amber (author)Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is known as a frequent, genetic cardiovascular disease, often caused by mutations of sarcomere protein genes. HCM is primarily characterized by the presence of an increased left ventricular wall thickness, i.e. left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). However, the disease appears to be asymptomatic in some patients,...master thesis 2022

Roy, Ellie (author)Data on the number of floors is required for a variety of applications, ranging from energy demand estimation to flood response plans. Despite this, open data on the number of floors is currently not available at a nationwide level in the Netherlands. This means that it must be inferred from other available data. Automatic methods usually...master thesis 2022

Ochalhi, Redouan (author)In this research, different models are used to construct volatility surfaces and these models are compared with each other in terms of accuracy. The models range from the SSVI to neural networks. Specifically, we look at the SSVI, the feedforward neural network and the gated neural network. Attention is also paid to the incorporation of...master thesis 2021

PAPALEXIOU, ANNIE (author)Although monitoring and maintenance of railways is important to ensure safety and avoid delays and financial losses, it is still mainly based on human inspection. The complexity of a railway along with the large area it extends makes manual monitoring difficult and time-consuming. The increasing availability of 3D acquisition technologies has...master thesis 2021

Wirianto, Erik (author)Neonatal sepsis is a dangerous non-specific disease in babies, especially neonate/newborns. It is one of the leading causes of neonate mortality rate, because of the difficulty to diagnose, leading to late or false treatment. Previous research has found the promising feature of artificial intelligence or machine learning in solving the problem....master thesis 2021

Prasing, Sean (author)The structural properties of a composite laminate can be tailored by allowing the fibres to vary their orientation within the individual plies. This class of composites is termed variable stiffness and they are able to enhance the structural performance over traditional laminates by redistributing the internal load of the structure. Therefore,...master thesis 2020

Mulders, Maurits (author)A side-channel attack is performed by analyzing unwanted physical leakage to achieve a more effective attack on the cryptographic key. An attacker performs a profiled attack when he has a physical and identical copy of the target device, meaning the attacker is in full control of the target device. Therefore, these profiled attacks are known as...master thesis 2020
