de Waard, Mike (author)The aviation industry is vastly growing, as travelling by air is more common today than it ever was. However due too inefficiency and lack of communication of accurate flight information between airports, congestion and delays are occurring on a daily basis. While Collaborative Decision Making (CDM) is developed by Euro control to address this...master thesis 2017

van Til, S.W. (author)The fairway connecting Holwerd and Nes forms the main transport route between Friesland and Ameland (the Dutch Wadden Sea). It consists of several tidal channels that funnel the majority of the tidal currents propagating through the tidal basin. Over the past decades, several channel bends have expanded leading to a fairway length-increase of...master thesis 2017

De Koning, R.J. (author)The study into sand wave dynamics in South Channel has commenced after large dune forms were observed in monitoring campaigns following the channel deepening project of the Port of Melbourne. The project involved deepening of the harbour berths and channels, but more importantly, it involved the deepening of South Channel in Port Phillip Bay....master thesis 2017

Rozema, L.M. (author)Given the observable characteristics of a passenger in an airport, is it possible to predict their behaviour? This thesis researches the possibilities for finding behavioural classes that can help predict passenger behaviour in a passenger demand forecast (PDF) system that is developed for the European PASSME project. The thesis introduces a...master thesis 2017

Zheng, Fangfang (author), Li, Jie (author), van Zuylen, H.J. (author), Lu, Chao (author)Fuel consumption and atmospheric pollution emissions of vehicles depend on driving conditions, the characteristics of the driver and the car. The influence of driving style on the environmental aspects of a car journey has been investigated. Driver characteristics were determined by a Driver Behaviour Questionnaire and observed acceleration...journal article 2017

Mohammadloo, Tannaz H. (author), Tengku Ali, T.A. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Koop, L. (author), Gaida, T.C. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)Knowing the morphology and sediment composition of the seabed is of high importance for various applications. In this contribution, the repeatability of acoustic seafloor classification (ASC) results obtained from MBES backscatter value is investigated. The unsupervised classification algorithm based on Principal Component Analysis has been...conference paper 2017

Rajabzadeh, Aydin (author), Hendriks, R.C. (author), Heusdens, R. (author), Groves, R.M. (author)This paper describes a new method for the classification and identification of two major types of defects in composites, namely delamination and matrix cracks, by classification of the spectral features of fibre Bragg grating (FBG) signals. In aeronautical applications of composites, after a damage is detected, it is very useful to know the...conference paper 2017

Zheng, M. (author), Lemmens, M.J.P.M. (author), van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author)This paper focusses on the feasibility of classifiers, developed for classifying multispectral images, for assigning classes to point clouds of urban scenes. The motivation of our research is that dense point clouds require fast classification methods to extract meaningful information within a reasonable amount of time and multispectral...conference paper 2017

Scholtissek, Anika (author), Tischler, Dirk (author), Westphal, Adrie H. (author), van Berkel, Willem J.H. (author), Paul, C.E. (author)Asymmetric hydrogenation of activated alkenes catalysed by ene-reductases from the old yellow enzyme family (OYEs) leading to chiral products is of potential interest for industrial processes. OYEs’ dependency on the pyridine nucleotide coenzyme can be circumvented through established artificial hydride donors such as nicotinamide coenzyme...journal article 2017

(author)Particle defects are important contributors to yield loss in semi-conductor manufacturing. Particles need to be detected and characterized in order to determine and eliminate their root cause. We have conceived a process flow for advanced defect classification (ADC) that distinguishes three consecutive steps; detection, review and...conference paper 2017

Jain, Mihir (author), van Gemert, J.C. (author), Jégou, Hervé (author), Bouthemy, Patrick (author), Snoek, Cees G.M. (author)This paper considers the problem of localizing actions in videos as sequences of bounding boxes. The objective is to generate action proposals that are likely to include the action of interest, ideally achieving high recall with few proposals. Our contributions are threefold. First, inspired by selective search for object proposals, we...journal article 2017

Sun, Zhuo (author), van de Giessen, M. (author), Lelieveldt, B.P.F. (author), Staring, M. (author)Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is an intermediate stage between healthy and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). To enable early intervention it is important to identify the MCI subjects that will convert to AD in an early stage. In this paper, we provide a new method to distinguish between MCI patients that either convert to Alzheimer’s Disease (MCIc)...journal article 2017

Zheng, M. (author), Lemmens, M.J.P.M. (author), van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author)The demand for 3D maps of cities and road networks is steadily growing and mobile laser scanning (MLS) systems are often the preferred geo-data acquisition method for capturing such scenes. Because MLS systems are mounted on cars or vans they can acquire billions of points of road scenes within a few hours of survey. Manual processing of...conference paper 2017

(author), Dhanani, A. (author)It has been argued that different urban configurations-planned vs. organic, treelike vs. grid like-perform differently when it comes to the intensity and distribution of pedestrian flows, built density and land uses. However, definitions of urban configurations are often rather abstract, ill-defined and at worse end in fixed stereotypes...conference paper 2017

Van der Vorst, W.W.F. (author)Service logistics companies aim for their high value capital assets to be operationally available, to prevent lost revenues and customer dissatisfaction. To assure this maintenance is performed, and therefore spare parts are required. An important activity is to have spare parts available when they are demanded for conducting maintenance....master thesis 2016

Morency, M.W. (author), Vorobyov, Sergiy A. (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author)Source localization is among the most fundamental problems in statistical signal processing. Methods which rely on the orthogonality of the signal and noise subspaces, such as Pisarenko’s method, MUSIC, and root-MUSIC are some of the most widely used algorithms to solve this problem. As a common feature, these methods require both a-priori...conference paper 2016

Brossell, D. (author)Nanomaterials are a growing source for innovation. However, the very properties that make them so effective for their desired purpose might also render them more hazardous towards humans and the environment. Adequate risk assessment tools are often missing, partly due to instrumental gaps in exposure assessment and toxicity testing. In this...doctoral thesis 2016
