Ozgur, Enes Arda (author)Learning curves illustrate the relationship between the performance of learning algorithms and the increasing volume of training data [1, 2, 3]. While the concept of learning curves is well-established, clustering these curves based on fitting parameters remains an underexplored area. Our study delves into this domain and leverages the Learning...bachelor thesis 2024

Meeusen, Brent (author)Scratch is a popular, visual programming language aimed at children, and is used by teachers and after school code clubs to teach their students about programming. Measuring whether they understand the underlying concepts, however, is a difficult task. In this research, we tried clustering Scratch projects by complexity to help students improve...bachelor thesis 2024

Ramsundersingh, Pravesha (author)A learning curve can serve as an indicator of the “performance of trained models versus the training set size” [1]. Recent research on learning curve analysis has been carried out within the Learning Curve Database (LCDB) [2] This paper will investigate if there are similarities amongst these curves by clustering those provided by the LCDB. The...bachelor thesis 2024

Hamida, A.B. (author), Eijkelenboom, A.M. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)Understanding students' preferences of their study place, in particular acoustical and psychosocial preferences, is important to students' health and comfort. This study aimed to identify clusters of students with similar acoustical and psychosocial preferences, and to identify reasons for certain preferences of students in each cluster. A mixed...journal article 2024

Budel, G.J.A. (author), Frasincar, Flavius (author), Boekestijn, David (author)Sequence data mining has become an increasingly popular research topic as the availability of data has grown rapidly over the past decades. Sequence clustering is a type of method within this field that is in high demand in the industry, but the sequence clustering problem is non-trivial and, as opposed to static cluster analysis,...journal article 2024

Guendel, R.G. (author), Kruse, N.C. (author), Fioranelli, F. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)In this study, the problem of multipath in radar sensor networks for human activity recognition (HAR) has been examined. Traditionally considered as a source of additional clutter, the multipath is being investigated for its potential to be exploited through the creation of virtual radar nodes. These virtual nodes are conceptualized to...journal article 2024

Debbaghi, Fatima-Zahra (author), Kroesen, M. (author), de Vries, G. (author), Pudane, B. (author)Automated vehicles (AVs) may transform not only our travel experience but our complete daily schedules. This study analyses the data from an interactive stated activity-travel survey using latent class cluster analysis to uncover the types and prevalence of schedule changes with AVs. The analysis reveals that the majority of respondents expected...journal article 2024

Diaz, Vitali (author), Corzo Perez, Gerald A. (author), Van Lanen, Henny A.J. (author), Solomatine, D.P. (author)In its three-dimensional (3-D) characterization, drought is an event whose spatial extent changes over time. Each drought event has an onset and end time, a location, a magnitude, and a spatial trajectory. These characteristics help to analyze and describe how drought develops in space and time (i.e., drought dynamics). Methodologies for 3-D...book chapter 2024

Nijhof, Daan (author)Following the European Green Deal, transport- related emissions must be reduced by 90% in 2050. While aviation contributes to a significant share of these emissions, the substitution of flights for rail travel is often considered to achieve a reduction in emissions of greenhouse gasses. Mostly, travelers consider this option when the full trip...master thesis 2023
