Krempus, D. (author), Bahamonde, Sebastian (author), van der Stelt, T.P. (author), Klink, Wolfgang (author), Colonna, Piero (author), de Servi, C.M. (author)The use of mixtures as working fluids of organic Rankine cycle (ORC) waste heat recovery (WHR) power plants has been proposed in the past to improve the matching between the temperature profile of the hot and the cold streams of condensers and evaporators, thus to possibly increase the energy conversion efficiency of the system. The goal of...journal article 2024

Lin, H. (author), Wang, Mingqiang (author), Zhuang, Jincheng (author), Wang, Yang (author)The Learning with Errors (LWE) problem is a versatile basis for building various purpose post-quantum schemes. Goldwasser et al. [ISC 2010] initialized the study of a variant of this problem called the Entropic LWE problem, where the LWE secret is generated from a distribution with a certain min-entropy. Brakerski and Döttling recently further...journal article 2024

Reichling, C Z (author)This thesis is on the subject of phylogenetic networks. These are schematic<br/>visualisations used mainly to investigate the evolutionary history of species,<br/>but which can be used for any set of distinguishable elements which have diverged from a common ancestor through some evolutionary process. The research specifically focuses on a way...master thesis 2023

Kloppenburg, Jeroen (author)The behaviour of software is intrinsically linked to the hardware it runs on. As hardware innovations continuously change the landscape of computing, software has to adapt to these changes. Running legacy software on new hardware requires either the old hardware to be emulated, or a very time-consuming and error-prone process of reverse...master thesis 2023

Verigo, Pavel (author)The rapid increase in the size of single-cell RNAseq datasets presents significant performance challenges when conducting evaluations and extracting information. We research an alternative input data format that utilizes binarization. Our main focus is an analysis of peak memory usage. An in-depth exploration of the solution’s design and...bachelor thesis 2023

Theunisz, Jurriën (author)Single-cell RNA sequencing data clustering is a valuable technique for demonstrating cell-to-cell heterogeneity and revealing cell dynamics within and amongst groups. Large up-scaling of scRNA-seq datasets in recent years pose computational challenges for existing state-of-the-art clustering techniques. A possible solution to tackle these...bachelor thesis 2023

Orav, Markus (author)Category theory is a branch of mathematics that is used to abstract and generalize other mathematical concepts. Its core idea is to take the emphasis off the details of the elements of these concepts and put it on the relationships between them instead. The elements can then be characterized in terms of their relationships using various...bachelor thesis 2023

(author)Binary reverse engineering is used to understand and analyse programs for which the source code is unavailable. Decompilers can help, transforming opaque binaries into a more readable source code-like representation. Still, reverse engineering is difficult and costly, involving considering effort in labelling code with helpful summaries....conference paper 2023
