Towards Modular Compilation Using Higher-Order Effects

Reinders, J.S. (author)

Compilers transform a human readable source language into machine readable target language. Nanopass compilers simplify this approach by breaking up this transformation into small steps that are more understandable, maintainable, and extensible. We propose a semantics-driven variant of the nanopass compiler architecture exploring the use a...

Reading Sites, Building Stories

Reinders, L.G.A.J. (author)

Doing architecture is an act of bricolage. New things take shape out of the existing. The architect makes do with the materials at hand. Accidents happen, incidents occur, circumstances meet. The site-specific nature of the architectural project opens up questions on how to work with materials at hand and as found, and how to capture, approach...

Self-Supervised PPG Representation Learning Shows High Inter-Subject Variability

Ghorbani, R. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author), Tax, D.M.J. (author)

With the progress of sensor technology in wearables, the collection and analysis of PPG signals are gaining more interest. Using Machine Learning, the cardiac rhythm corresponding to PPG signals can be used to predict different tasks such as activity recognition, sleep stage detection, or more general health status. However, supervised...

Percolate: An Exponential Family JIVE Model to Design DNA-Based Predictors of Drug Response

Mourragui, S.M.C. (author), Loog, M. (author), van Nee, Mirrelijn (author), de Wiel, Mark A.van (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author), Wessels, L.F.A. (author)

Motivation: Anti-cancer drugs may elicit resistance or sensitivity through mechanisms which involve several genomic layers. Nevertheless, we have demonstrated that gene expression contains most of the predictive capacity compared to the remaining omic data types. Unfortunately, this comes at a price: gene expression biomarkers are often hard...

Evaluation of InSAR data for measuring the surface settlement during shield tunnel construction of the North-South Line in Amsterdam

Reinders, K.J. (author), van Leijen, F.J. (author), Hanssen, R.F. (author), Korff, M. (author)

This paper investigates the use of InSAR data during shield tunnel construction when short-term settlements occur within a few days. Additionally, the long-term settlement, which occur over several years, in the vicinity of these tunnels are evaluated with inSAR. The North-South Line in Amsterdam is used as a case study for this research. We...

PREDICT: Efficient Private Disease Susceptibility Testing in Direct-to-Consumer Model

Ugwuoke, C.I. (author), Erkin, Z. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author), Lagendijk, R.L. (author)

Genome sequencing has rapidly advanced in the last decade, making it easier for anyone to obtain digital genomes at low costs from companies such as Helix, MyHeritage, and 23andMe. Companies now offer their services in a direct-to-consumer (DTC) model without the intervention of a medical institution. Thereby, providing people with direct...

A Culture of Innovation: A model for Qualitative Analysis at Universities and the Case Study of Civil Engineering Students at the Addis Ababa Institute of Technology

Reinders, S.N. (author)

Innovation offers opportunities for modernization and development. In recent years it has become a buzzword in the world of NGO’s, IGO’s and governments in developing countries and is featured in the proposed UN Sustainable Development Goals. Different types of innovation are increasingly recognized, complicating the classic notion of innovation...

Limit-State Design of a Steel Storage Tank Foundation on a Crushed Rock Ring Based on Proven Soil Strength

Reinders, K.J. (author), Schoenmaker, B. (author), Nohl, W.A. (author)

New vertical steel storage tanks founded on a shallow foundation of a crushed rock ring are planned at the same location of former storage tanks. The dimensions, loads and foundation of the new tanks are identical to the old tanks which were erected 40 years ago and demolished a few years ago. Despite the fact that the new tanks are identical to...

Smart energy households' pilot projects in The Netherlands with a design-driven approach

Geelen, D.V. (author), Scheepens, A.E. (author), Kobus, C.B.A. (author), Obinna, U.P. (author), Mugge, R. (author), Schoormans, J.P.L. (author), Reinders, A.H.M.E. (author)

Residential smart grid projects can be evaluated by a design-driven approach, which focuses on gaining insights for successful product and service development by taking the end-users as a starting point. Because only little experience exists with this design-driven approach, this paper addresses how four pilot projects with smart energy...

A comparison of design features of 80 pv-powered products

Apostolou, G. (author), Reinders, A.H.M.E. (author)

In this paper 80 commercially available PV products have been analysed. The data set comprises 46 low power PV products in the range of 0 to 17 Wp and 34 PV products with a power of 17 Wp up to 27 kWp. The goal of our study is to investigate and evaluate features of PV products that are available on the market now and to present features that...

Diffusion of solar energy use in the urban built environment supported by new design

Van Geenhuizen, M.S. (author), Schoonman, J. (author), Reinders, A.H.M.E. (author)

Places of large potentials of sustainable energy production and places of energy consumption are often very different and separated by large distances across the globe. This paper first discusses potentials of solar technology in terms of global availability using PV technology and actual energy production. Solar energy is widely under-used and...

System engineering and design of LSC-PV for outdoor lighting applications

Viswanathan, B. (author), Reinders, A.H.M.E. (author), De Boer, D.K.G. (author), Ras, A. (author), Zahn, H. (author), Desmet, L. (author)

Solar photovoltaic outdoor lighting applications usually comprise flat plate PV modules mounted on top of a light pole. In our paper instead, it is thought of to design the light pole as a luminescent solar concentrator photovoltaic (LSC-PV) module with solar cell strips and hence reduce costs of silicon solar cells because concentration effects...

Smartphone use has increased at a phenomenal pace worldwide. In 2011 more smartphones have been sold than desktop pc’s, notebooks, netbooks and tablets together. The total worldwide smartphone sales reached 472 million units in 2011, and 149 million of them were sold in the fourth quarter of 2011. The smartphone is, like almost every other...

Metabolic network destruction: Relating topology to robustness

Winterbach, W. (author), Wang, H. (author), Reinders, M. (author), Van Mieghem, P. (author), De Ridder, D. (author)

Biological networks exhibit intriguing topological properties such as small-worldness. In this paper, we investigate whether the topology of a metabolic network is related to its robustness. We do so by perturbing a metabolic system in silico, one reaction at a time and studying the correlations between growth, as predicted by flux balance...

PV-boats: Design issues in the realization of PV powered boats

Gorter, T. (author), Voerman, E.J. (author), Joore, P. (author), Reinders, A. (author), Van Houten, F. (author)

PV integration in boats is rarely seen, but offers clean and silent transportation while on the water. In order to research the PV realization into boat design challenges, the University of Twente and the NHL hogeschool, both in the Netherlands, started a joined research into PV integration in boats. By studying 3 cases, PV boat specifications...

Sign language perception research for improving automatic sign language recognition

Ten Holt, G.A. (author), Arendsen, J. (author), De Ridder, H. (author), Van Doorn, A.J. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author), Hendriks, E.A. (author)

Current automatic sign language recognition (ASLR) seldom uses perceptual knowledge about the recognition of sign language. Using such knowledge can improve ASLR because it can give an indication which elements or phases of a sign are important for its meaning. Also, the current generation of data-driven ASLR methods has shortcomings which may...

A Hybrid Approach to Sign Language Recognition (extended abstract)

Hendriks, E.A. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author)

Methods commonly used for speech and sign language recognition often rely on outputs of Hidden Markov Models (HMM) or Dynamic TimeWarping (DTW) for classification, which aremerely factorized observation likelihoods. Instead, we propose to use Statistical DTW (SDTW) only for warping, while classifying the synchronized features with either of two...
