Wijker, Alyssa (author)In this report a new approach to (forensic) handwriting analysis is presented; score-based likelihood ratio (SLR) systems are employed and their quality of performance is studied. These systems compare elements of handwriting based on their characteristics and give an insight into the degree of uncertainty of the statement that two writings have...bachelor thesis 2022

Oedayrajsingh Varma, Vanisha (author)Many artificial intelligence (AI) systems are built using black-box machine learning (ML) algorithms. The lack of transparency and interpretability reduces their trustworthiness. In recent years, research into explainable AI (XAI) has increased. These systems are designed to tackle common ML issues such as trust, accountability, and transparency...bachelor thesis 2022

Both, Julian (author)Nitrogen emissions contribute significantly to climate change, especially in the Netherlands around Natura-2000 areas, and one of the main contributors is manure. However, not only does manure usually have high nitrogen emissions, a lot of it is in the form of ammonia, which in itself is very energy-intensive to create. Therefore MEZT developed...master thesis 2022

van Gerrevink, Iris (author)Mobility hubs are a promising concept that has been gaining increased attention. Mobility hubs, a place where several (shared) modalities are combined, are seen as an enabler of shared mobility. Shared mobility and mobility hubs could therefore provide attractive alternatives for private vehicles and contribute to municipal policy goals. Like to...master thesis 2021
