Schupp, Eleen (author)When a person suffers from severe to profound hearing loss, a cochlear implant (CI) can aid in restoring auditory perception and speech comprehension. To obtain good speech comprehension, fitting of a CI to the user’s specific characteristics is crucial. Fitting can be a time-consuming process which requires the cooperation of a CI user and is...master thesis 2023

Marinissen, Annemar (author)Patient motion during an MR scan is still a problem in the medical field. It results in artefacts and reduces image quality which can lead to wrong patient outcomes. A patient moves due to the long scanning times, discomfort, and restlessness. Motion correction techniques are developed to prevent or compensate for the movements. Prospective...master thesis 2023

Onkhar, V. (author), Dodou, D. (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)Over the past few decades, there have been significant developments in eye-tracking technology, particularly in the domain of mobile, head-mounted devices. Nevertheless, questions remain regarding the accuracy of these eye-trackers during static and dynamic tasks. In light of this, we evaluated the performance of two widely used devices: Tobii...journal article 2023

Dursun, I. (author), Akcay, Alp (author), van Houtum, Geert-Jan (author)Thanks to Industry 4.0 technologies, predictive algorithms can provide advance demand information on spare parts demand. Understanding how the goodness of predictions affects on-hand inventory and costs is important for decision makers before integrating these models into existing systems. We consider a spare parts inventory problem for multiple...journal article 2023

VilasBoas-Ribeiro, Iva (author), Franckena, Martine (author), van Rhoon, G.C. (author), Hernandez-Tamames, J.A. (author), Paulides, Margarethus M. (author)Purpose: We studied the differences between planning and treatment position, their impact on the accuracy of hyperthermia treatment planning (HTP) predictions, and the relevance of including true treatment anatomy and position in HTP based on magnetic resonance (MR) images. Materials and methods: All volunteers were scanned with an MR...journal article 2023

Bouwhuis, Twan (author), Verwijmeren, Joris (author), Pijls, Ruth (author), Groen, Brenda (author)Background and aim - Police interrogations tend to be very stressful. This comes at the expense of the effectiveness of interrogations as stressed suspects and witnesses provide less extensive and accurate statements. A more comfortable environment probably leads to more effective interrogations for all persons involved. The aim of this research...conference paper 2022

Arriaga, Jaime (author), Medellin, Gabriela (author), Ojeda, Elena (author), Salles, Paulo (author)Video monitoring has become an indispensable tool to understand beach processes. However, the measurement accuracy derived from the images has been taken for granted despite its dependence on the calibration process and camera movements. An easy to implement self-fed image stabilization algorithm is proposed to solve the camera movements....journal article 2022
