Galanis, Miltos (author)In this thesis, we explore the structure of consistent bootstrap statistics in hypothesis testing. Bootstrap, as a very useful technique when theoretical distributions are not available or when the sample size is small, enjoys a lot of interest from applied statisticians. Historically, guidelines for performing Bootstrap have been proposed. One...master thesis 2023

Sozen, Efe (author)Autonomous driving is a rapidly evolving field that aims to enhance road safety and reduce accidents through the use of advanced software and hardware technologies. Reinforcement learning (RL) combined with deep neural networks has emerged as a promising approach for training autonomous agents. This research paper investigates three exploration...bachelor thesis 2023

Odendaal, Kirsten (author), Alkemade, Aaron (author), Kana, A.A. (author)The adverse human contribution to global climate change has forced the yachting industry to acknowledge the need to reduce its environmental impact due to the client's increasing pressure and potential future regulations to limit the ecological effects. Unfortunately, current real-world data presents a significant disparity between predicted...journal article 2023

Vis, Simone (author)Money laundering is an increasing problem for the global economy. To combat money laundering, banks use transaction monitoring models with particular thresholds to detect unusual transaction behaviour. However, it is a challenge to determine and evaluate the suitability of a threshold level to ensure that the risk of misclassification of...master thesis 2022

Meinzer, Jann (author)This project lives in the intersection between marketing and entrepreneurship. The client company is Athlete Development, an early stage start-up that creates digital strength & conditioning training plans for team sports athletes. They sought external expertise in the field of branding and the commercialization of their product. As a start...master thesis 2022

Derumigny, Alexis (author), Fermanian, Jean David (author)We study the weak convergence of conditional empirical copula processes indexed by general families of conditioning events that have non zero probabilities. Moreover, we also study the case where the conditioning events are chosen in a data-driven way. The validity of several bootstrap schemes is stated, including the exchangeable bootstrap....journal article 2022

Nagler, T.W. (author), Krüger, Daniel (author), Min, Aleksey (author)Multivariate time series exhibit two types of dependence: across variables and across time points. Vine copulas are graphical models for the dependence and can conveniently capture both types of dependence in the same model. We derive the maximal class of graph structures that guarantee stationarity under a natural and verifiable condition...journal article 2022

Sharma, Shrinidhi (author)Integrated circuits (ICs) are susceptible to damage by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), which necessitates protection diodes. However, these diodes can cause leakage currents in the range of picoamperes, dominating the input current of CMOS ICs. This thesis presents the implementation of a low leakage bootstrapped ESD protection circuit for...master thesis 2021

Teunissen, P.J.G. (author), Massarweh, L. (author), Verhagen, S. (author)In this contribution, we extend the principle of integer bootstrapping (IB) to a vectorial form (VIB). The mathematical definition of the class of VIB-estimators is introduced together with their pull-in regions and other properties such as probability bounds and success rate approximations. The vectorial formulation allows sequential block...journal article 2021

Vittorietti, M. (author), Hidalgo Garcia, J. (author), Sietsma, J. (author), Li, W. (author), Jongbloed, G. (author)Investigating the main determinants of the mechanical performance of metals is not a simple task. Already known physically inspired qualitative relations between 2D microstructure characteristics and 3D mechanical properties can act as the starting point of the investigation. Isotonic regression allows to take into account ordering relations...journal article 2021

Massarweh, L. (author), Strasser, Sebastian (author), Mayer-Gürr, Torsten (author)The estimation of satellite orbits and clocks plays a central role in different Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) domains, e.g. precise positioning or time transfer. Such products can be computed in the process of Orbit Determination and Time Synchronization (ODTS), which relies on a network of ground-based stations, well distributed...journal article 2021

Gouwens, Sigur (author)In this study the interval censoring case 2 model combined with the Cox model is considered. The event-time distribution function is modeled nonparametrically. Two algorithms are proposed to estimate the event-time distribution function together with the Cox coefficients. Kernel smoothing is applied to the non-parametric MLE of the event-time...master thesis 2019

Koole, Ruth (author)Statistics Netherlands performs many different surveys to obtain estimates of unknown characteristics of the Dutch population. To keep the response burden on the Dutch households low, Statistics Netherlands applies a screening procedure to their selected samples. In our research, we investigate the effects of the screening procedure on the...master thesis 2019

Wang, Anqi (author), Solomatine, D.P. (author)Currently, practically no modeling study is expected to be carried out without some form of Sensitivity Analysis (SA). At the same time, there is a large number of various methods and it is not always easy for practitioners to choose one. The aim of this paper is to briefly review main classes of SA methods, and to present the results of the...journal article 2019

Urbano, Julián (author), De Lima, H.A. (author), Hanjalic, A. (author)Statistical significance testing is widely accepted as a means to assess how well a difference in effectiveness reflects an actual difference between systems, as opposed to random noise because of the selection of topics. According to recent surveys on SIGIR, CIKM, ECIR and TOIS papers, the t-test is the most popular choice among IR researchers....conference paper 2019

Urbano, Julián (author), De Lima, H.A. (author), Hanjalic, A. (author)In test collection based evaluation of IR systems, score standardization has been proposed to compare systems across collections and minimize the effect of outlier runs on specific topics. The underlying idea is to account for the difficulty of topics, so that systems are scored relative to it. Webber et al. first proposed standardization...conference paper 2019

Groeneboom, P. (author), Hendrickx, K. (author)It has been proved that direct bootstrapping of the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of the distribution function in the current status model leads to inconsistent confidence intervals. We show that bootstrapping of functionals of the MLE can however be used to produce valid intervals. To this end, we prove that the bootstrapped...journal article 2017

Konat, G.D.P. (author), Erdweg, S.T. (author), Visser, Eelco (author)It is common practice to bootstrap compilers of programming languages. By using the compiled language to implement the compiler, compiler developers can code in their own high-level language and gain a large-scale test case. In this paper, we investigate bootstrapping of compiler-compilers as they occur in language workbenches. Language...conference paper 2016
