We propose the Stationary spectrum Plus Low-rank Iterative TransmiTtance EstimatoR (SPLITTER) for removing wideband atmospheric noise from observations of high-redshift galaxies. This algorithm has specifically been developed for the DEep Spectroscopic HIgh-redshift MApper (DESHIMA) 2.0, a spectrometer that is designed to observe the waveband...

At the Center for Ultrasound and Brain imaging at Erasmus MC in Rotterdam, a mouse's visual cortex had been imaged using the fUS technique. The mouse had been exposed to different visual stimuli. The stimuli varied in position, size, and shape. We investigate how the measured task-based fUS signals differ depending on the visual stimuli...

The development of the Spiking Neural Network (SNN) offers great potential in combination with new types of event-based sensors, by exploiting the embedded temporal information. When combined with dedicated neuromorphic hardware it enables ultra-low power solutions and local on-chip learning. This work implements and presents a viable...

Conversion from digital information to spike trains is needed for Spiking Neural Networks. Moreover, it is one of the most important steps for Spiking Neural Networks. This conversion could lead to much information loss depending on which encoding algorithm is used. Another major problem that can occur in a specific use-case is the limited...

Truck platooning refers to coordinating a group of heavy-duty vehicles at a close inter-vehicle distance to reduce overall fuel consumption. This coordination between trucks is traditionally achieved by adjusting the schedule, velocity, and routines to increase the platooning chances, and thus improve the overall fuel efficiency. However, the...

This thesis is focused on Wireless Acoustic Sensor Networks (WASNs) used for beamforming in a speech enhancement task. Since each node in a WASN has its own clock, clock offsets and clock skews between the nodes are inevitable. Clock offsets and clock skew can be detrimental to the beamformer performance. In this thesis we focus on the effect of...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging is one of the most widely used imaging modalities nowadays and it performs especially well imaging human organs such as the brain and liver. One of its main limitations is the relatively long imaging times, to overcome this issue and speed up the data acquisition, several techniques such as Parallel Imaging or PI have...

In radio astronomy (RA), one of the key tasks is the estimation of the celestial source powers, i.e. imaging. To maximize the performance, it is crucial to optimize the receiver locations before the construction of a telescope array. However, although system calibration is an integral and crucial process of imaging, it has rarely been addressed...

For people with hearing impairment, it is important to have good speech intelligibility, while also being able to localise the sound sources. Many beam-forming algorithms for hearing aids have been proposed, that minimise the noise, in combination with spatial scene preservation of the target and the interferers. By constraining the spatial cues...

Currently, most of FMCW radar systems for target detection and localization are based on the radar system with multiple receiving antennas, but little based on the SISO system. In this project, we will show a unique signal processing pipeline based on the 8 GHz SISO FMCW radar system. An advanced algorithm of multi-target detection and tracking...

Detailed imaging of blood flow may improve the understanding of brain functions. The state-of-the-art non-invasive flow imaging of the brain is limited to a one-dimensional Doppler setting. We propose a method to estimate the two-dimensional flow vector in the fine vascular network of the brain by using a speckle tracking technique. The...

Acoustic room geometry estimation is often performed in ad hoc settings, i.e., using multiple microphones and sources distributed around the room, or assuming control over the excitation signals. To facilitate practical applications, we propose a fully convolutional network (FCN) that localizes reflective surfaces under the relaxed assumptions...

Autonomous vehicle (AV technology) relies heavily on vision based applications like object recognition, obstacle/collision avoidance etc. In order to achieve this, understanding and estimating the dynamics in the environment is extremely important. LIDARs are proven to detect both shape as well as the speed/movement of the objects in the scene...

The particle filter (PF) algorithm is appropriate to solve the problem of speaker tracking in a reverberant and noisy environment using distributed pairwise microphone networks. First, complete the tracking task based on PF algorithm in centralized manner, a processing center is required to collect the signal from all microphones to carry out...

In statistical learning over large data-sets, labeling all points is expensive and time-consuming. Semi-supervised classification allows learning with very few labels. Naturally, selecting a few points to label becomes crucial as the performance relies heavily on the labeled points. The motivation behind active learning is to build an optimal...

Radio astronomy image formation can be treated as a linear inverse problem. However, due to physical limitations, this inverse problem is ill-posed. To overcome the ill-posedness, side information should be involved. Based on the sparsity assumption of the sky image, we involve l1-regularization. We formulate the image formation problem into a...

Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) are used in many applications ranging from real-time object detection to robot-motion planning. CNNs are implemented on high-performance systems like multi-core CPU and GPU, these are of high power in nature and thus cannot be deployed in edge devices due to their limited battery power. The edge device has to...

A common cardiac arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation, which is becoming more widespread worldwide. Currently there is some understanding about the mechanisms behind atrial fibrillation, however more insight into the conduction of the atrial tissue is desired. Therefore, invasive mapping studies have been performed where an array of electrodes is...
