Owen, C.C. (author)The imminence of anthropogenic climate change has motivated a global energy transition towards sustainable power generation. Offshore wind—an important contributor to the energy transition—is expanding, not only in turbine size and number of installations, but also into regions with harsher environmental conditions. One of those conditions in...doctoral thesis 2024

Burr, Zach (author)Planet formation is a topic that still has many unanswered questions, particularly regarding the formation of wide orbit giant planets. Detecting more of these types of planets can aid understanding of how they form by giving examples of what kind of planets exist. Direct imaging is uniquely well suited to detecting these kinds of planets, which...master thesis 2024

Martinez Lopez, V.A. (author), van Urk, G.A. (author), Doodkorte, P.J.F. (author), Zeman, M. (author), Isabella, O. (author), Ziar, H. (author)Clouds moving in front or away from the sun are the leading cause of irradiance variability. These variations have a repercussion on the electricity production of photovoltaic systems. Predicting such changes is essential for proper control of these systems and for maintaining grid stability. Images from the sky have proven to help with short...journal article 2024

de Vries, Chiel (author)Alzheimer's disease (AD) is becoming more prevalent as the world population gets older. The formation of Amyloid-beta (\AB) plaques is one of the pathologies related to AD. Recent work has shown that the \ab load in brain tissue has a negative correlation with cognitive performance in cognitively healthy centenarians. <br/>This work aims to...master thesis 2023

Ji, Ning (author)Emulsions, characterized as a metastable dispersion of one liquid into a second one in the presence of surface-active agents, have complex rheology that interests both physicists and industries. Depending on the volume fraction of the dispersed phase ($\phi$), emulsions can display both solid-like and liquid-like behavior. Rheometrical...master thesis 2023

Chen, Si-Jing (author)At crime scenes, various methods can be used to determine how much time has passed since the act happened, for example a body left at the scene, camera footage or eye witnesses. In this thesis, however, a different method shall be used to determine the time of the crime. The time will be determined using blood evidence. <br/><br/>To be exact,...bachelor thesis 2023

van der Kolk, Niels (author)Hidden spy cameras are a growing worldwide threat to people’s intimacy and privacy. With the growing interest in full-screen devices and the underlying development of under-screen cameras, a new type of potential security risk is introduced. Recent smartphones such as the ZTE AXON 40 already demonstrate that it’s infeasible to detect the camera...master thesis 2023

Stellinga, Bram (author)The segmentation of anatomical structures in 3D medical images is crucial for various applications in the field of medical imaging. Fully automated methods often lack accuracy, while manual segmenting requires much time and effort from a user. Due to this, Active Learning approaches are being proposed to solve this by making the method...bachelor thesis 2023

Banţă, Diana (author), Kho, Sydney (author), Lantink, Anna (author), Marin, Alexandru (author), Petkov, Vladimir (author)Watermarks are historical motifs present in the texture of paper that are commonly used to identify the paper manufacturers. They only become visible when viewed under certain light conditions. Under ideal circumstances, researchers may use watermarks to determine a historical document’s origins and context. To identify a watermark, it is...student report 2023

Shi, Rui (author), Wüthrich, D. (author), Chanson, Hubert (author)Continuing from the part 1 (Shi et al., 2022) this paper presents an experimental investigation of transient void fraction and bubble statistics in a highly turbulent breaking bore with Fr<sub>1</sub>=2.4. The measurements were conducted using a combination of dual-tip phase-detection probes and an ultra-high-speed video camera. The enclosed...journal article 2023

Owen, C.C. (author), Hendrikse, H. (author)The manual application of universal (Rigsby) stage techniques is commonly used to determine the fabric of thin sections of ice viewed with crossed-polarized light. This process can require hours of focus in cold conditions to identify the c-axis of each grain in a thin section. Automated ice texture and fabric methods of several forms exist...journal article 2023

(author)Fibrous networks are essential structural components of biological and engineered materials. Accordingly, many approaches have been developed to quantify their structural properties, which define their material properties. However, a comprehensive overview and comparison of methods is lacking. Therefore, we systematically searched for...journal article 2023

Ilioudi, A. (author), Wolf, B.J. (author), Dabiri, A. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)The majority of computer vision architectures are developed based on the assumption of the availability of good quality data. However, this is a particularly hard requirement to achieve in underwater conditions. To address this limitation, plenty of underwater image enhancement methods have received considerable attention during the last...conference paper 2023

Wong, Jing Jing (author)This research consists of two applications of image processing, namely, image compression and image denoising. Image compression aims to reduce the size of an image without losing too many features. This is often used to store a large number of images such as fingerprints. Denoising is a technique for removing noise from an image while...bachelor thesis 2022

van der Toorn, Jules (author)Multimodal imaging is used by conservators and scientists to study the composition of paintings. To aid the combined analysis of these scans, such images must first be aligned. Rather than proposing a new domain-specific descriptor, we explore and evaluate how existing feature descriptors from related fields can improve the performance of...bachelor thesis 2022
