Wallat, Jonas (author), Jatowt, Adam (author), Anand, A. (author)Large language models (LLMs) have recently gained significant attention due to their unparalleled zero-shot performance on various natural language processing tasks. However, the pre-Training data utilized in LLMs is often confined to a specific corpus, resulting in inherent freshness and temporal scope limitations. Consequently, this raises...conference paper 2024

Dekhovich, A. (author), Tax, D.M.J. (author), Sluiter, M.H.F. (author), Bessa, M.A. (author)Current deep neural networks (DNNs) are overparameterized and use most of their neuronal connections during inference for each task. The human brain, however, developed specialized regions for different tasks and performs inference with a small fraction of its neuronal connections. We propose an iterative pruning strategy introducing a simple...journal article 2024

Ligthart, N.E.G. (author), Prats Vergel, G. (author), Padding, J.T. (author), Vermaas, D.A. (author)CO2 conversion is an important part of the transition towards clean fuels and chemicals. However, low solubility of CO2 in water and its slow diffusion cause mass transfer limitations in aqueous electrochemical CO2 reduction. This significantly limits the partial current densities towards any desired CO2-reduction product. We propose using...journal article 2024

Nordhoff, S. (author)A better understanding of automation disengagements can lead to improved safety and efficiency of automated systems. This study investigates the factors contributing to automation disengagements initiated by human operators and the automation itself by analyzing semi-structured interviews with 103 users of Tesla’s Autopilot and FSD Beta. The...journal article 2024

Pfenninger, Stefan (author)Energy system models do not represent natural processes but are assumption-laden representations of complex engineered systems, making validation practically impossible. Post-normal science argues that in such cases, it is important to communicate embedded values and uncertainties, rather than establishing whether a model is 'true' or 'correct'....journal article 2024

Rathnayake, Manula S.B. (author), Boos, Manuela A. (author), Farrugia, Brooke L. (author), van Osch, G.J.V.M. (author), Stok, Kathryn S. (author)Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are ubiquitous components in the cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM). Ultrastructural arrangement of ECM and GAG-mediated interactions with collagen are known to govern the mechanics in articular cartilage, but these interactions are less clear in other cartilage types. Therefore, this article reviews the current...review 2024

Sylvestre, E. (author), Jahne, Michael A. (author), Reynaert, Eva (author), Morgenroth, Eberhard (author), Julian, Timothy R. (author)Greywater reuse is a strategy to address water scarcity, necessitating the selection of treatment processes that balance cost-efficiency and human health risks. A key aspect in evaluating these risks is understanding pathogen contamination levels in greywater, a complex task due to intermittent pathogen occurrences. To address this, faecal...journal article 2024

Vos, G.M. (author)This thesis deals with multipliers and transference on noncommutative Lp-spaces. It falls within the realm of noncommutative harmonic analysis, i.e. harmonic analysis on noncommutative spaces. Such spaces appear in several areas of mathematics, such as non-abelian groups, quantum groups, noncommutative geometry and the general theory of operator...doctoral thesis 2024
