Katsimerou, C. (author)Affect-adaptive systems have the potential to assist users that experience systematically negative moods. This thesis aims at building a platform for predicting automatically a person’s mood from his/her visual expressions. The key word is mood, namely a relatively long-term, stable and diffused affective state, as opposed to the short-term,...doctoral thesis 2016

Taskesen, E. (author), Reinders, M.J.T. (author)The GTEx Consortium reported that hierarchical clustering of RNA profiles from 25 unique tissue types among 1641 individuals accurately distinguished the tissue types, but a multidimensional scaling failed to generate a 2D projection of the data that separates tissue-subtypes. In this study we show that a projection by t-Distributed Stochastic...journal article 2016

Rothkrantz, L.J.M. (author)In this paper we present a new didactical model for open online learning using social media. Ideas underlying this model are discussed in recent literature. The innovative part of the model is that students are connected and cooperate via a social network of study friends for example via Facebook or Twitter. They inform each other about to be...conference paper 2016

Yang, S. (author), Trajanovski, S. (author), Kuipers, F.A. (author)Background Solving the shortest path and min-cut problems are key in achieving high-performance and robust communication networks. Those problems have often been studied in deterministic and uncorrelated networks both in their original formulations as well as in several constrained variants. However, in real-world networks, link weights (e.g.,...journal article 2016

(author), Diallo, S. (author), Earl, A. (author), Bishai, W.R. (author)Background Mycobacterium africanum, made up of lineages 5 and 6 within the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC), causes up to half of all tuberculosis cases in West Africa, but is rarely found outside of this region. The reasons for this geographical restriction remain unknown. Possible reasons include a geographically restricted animal...journal article 2016

Tillem, G. (author), Erkin, Z. (author), Lagendijk, R.L. (author)Validation in a big software system can be managed by analysis of its behaviour through occasionally collected event logs. Process mining is a technique to perform software validation by discovering process models from event logs or by checking the conformance of the logs to a process model. A well-known algorithm in process mining to discover...conference paper 2016

Von Tycowicz, C. (author), Schulz, C. (author), Seidel, H.P. (author), Hildebrandt, K. (author)We introduce a scheme for real-time nonlinear interpolation of a set of shapes. The scheme exploits the structure of the shape interpolation problem, in particular, the fact that the set of all possible interpolated shapes is a low-dimensional object in a high-dimensional shape space. The interpolated shapes are defined as the minimizers of a...journal article 2015

(author)Background Respiratory viral infections follow an unpredictable clinical course in young children ranging from a common cold to respiratory failure. The transition from mild to severe disease occurs rapidly and is difficult to predict. The pathophysiology underlying disease severity has remained elusive. There is an urgent need to better...journal article 2015

Our scheme does not need trusted or oblivious third parties (TTPs or OTPs). In this distributed scheme there is a changing secret group key dependent on the members in the group. Each member's secret key remains the same for all group...conference paper 2015
