Optimization of Strawberry Supply Chain from the Perspective of Producers

This thesis aims at maximizing the profit of a strawberry producer while satisfying the retailer's demand and meeting other constraints. The amount of strawberries to be delivered to the retailer signed in the contract is the main decision variable to be optimized in the problem. Furthermore, the transportation scheduling is also optimized to...

Feasibility study on the integration of a deep learning dose computation algorithm in an automated proton therapy treatment planning system

The dose computation algorithm, or dose engine, is one of the fundamental parts of radiotherapy treatment planning. These algorithms predict how the dose will be distributed inside the patient.<br/>Current dose engines are mainly based on either Monte Carlo simulations (MC) or pencil beam algorithms (PBA). MC being very precise, but relatively...
