The versatility of the internet enables many applications that play an increasingly bigger role in our society. However, users have little control over the route that their internet traffic takes, which prevents them from controlling who sees their packets and how their traffic is handled. Researchers have proposed an extension to the internet,...

In recent years, the rapid advancements in big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence have led to a corresponding rise in privacy concerns. One of the solutions to address these concerns is federated learning. In this thesis, we will look at the setting of vertical federated learning based on tree models. We have built a system that...

This project deals with spaces for a historically neglected collective: sex workers. It aims to destigmatize the practice by representing the workers and the material conditions that determine their safety and well-being every day, of which architecture is part.<br/>Articulated from an intersectional feminist point of view, the research...

When traffic demand is high and the intersection lacks throughput, oversaturated traffic phenomena occur, such as the oversaturation of a turning bay or intersection link. When such unsafe situations emerge, control strategies can be applied to handle or avoid these spillback effects. In this paper, a spillback component is designed that detects...

The rapid adoption of e-bikes as an alternative mode of transportation to automobiles gives rise to new methods of safety regulations for cyclists. Modern e-bikes feature Internet of Things (IoT) modules capable of collecting and sending cycling data that can be used for traffic safety analysis. This study explores the potential of using cycling...

Traffic congestion and undeveloped public transport define the modus operandi in Kampala, the capital city of Uganda. Most people see motorcycles as a solution to escape the growing traffic congestion and poor public transport. This study thus aimed to determine the traffic efficiency and safety effectiveness of introducing motorcycle dedicated...

The Netherlands faces the challenge, especially in the coming years, of coping with the continuous increase in traffic volumes and reducing the number of road casualties. A way to tackle this challenge is by constructing unconventional (American) designs, which aim to reduce travel time and improve traffic safety by rerouting left-turns. This...

A new generation of intelligent Traffic Light Controllers uses Model Predictive Control to minimise delay at signalised intersections. The conventional cycle of set sequences of green phases is dropped for optimisation purposes. This research uses the ethical theories utilitarianism, egalitarianism, sufficientarianism &amp; deontology to define...

In our increasingly digital society, we are making a growing amount of data available to computers, networks and third parties. As a consequence, our sensitive data is in danger of getting exposed. The field of multi-party computation attempts to mitigate this by studying protocols that enable parties to perform their operations digitally,...

Optimization of traffic signal control has been widely investigated by means of model-based strategies. In 2012 a new model-based controller was published, named Schedule-driven Intersection Control (SCHIC). This controller uses a job-scheduling algorithm to minimize the cumulative delay for all observed vehicles. The algorithms of SCHIC are at...

This master thesis presents an experimental study on 3D person localization (i.e., pedestrians, cyclists)in traffic scenes, using monocular vision and Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) data. The performance of two top-ranking methods is analyzed on the 3D object detection KITTI dataset. In this evaluation, the effect of the Intersection over...

Signalized urban intersections are bottlenecks for traffic and cause congestion. To improve traffic signal plans, research efforts have been made to create self-adaptive traffic controllers, i.e. controllers which adapt in real-time to the current traffic demand based on connected vehicle data. Past research on self-adaptive controllers has...

Road intersections have a large impact on road accidents and travel delay. Applying infrastructure, such as stop signs and traffic lights, are supposed to prevent collisions on the intersection. However, such methods contribute to the travel delay, while accidents still occur due to human errors. Considering the rise of automation within...

Understanding pedestrian traffic is essential to design for safe and reliable pedestrian infrastructures, facilities and operations. For the assessment and design of pedestrian transfer areas at stations capacity standards for uni- and bidirectional flows are applied. It has been observed that, at railway stations, also other configurations of...

In the last two decades there has been a steady rise in the gathering and use of 3D geo-information. A common way to store and use 3D data is by using 3D city models. In 3D city models, geo-information can be stored at different levels of detail. CityGML, the most commonly used data model and encoding for 3D city models, uses five levels of...

We are living in the Anthropocene; a period of time shaped by, and for, dominance of the human race. Barely a place or species sharing this earth remains unaffected by our activity. Humans treat other animals as commodities, objects available to be exploited. They are used for our gain and pleasure, at great cost to those individuals involved...

In the European Union Road freight transport volume is expected to grow 78% between 2000 and 2030, which results in more trucks on the road network. The worldwide estimated trend shows an increase of 150 million freight vehicles and an increase of 240 million passenger vehicles. The growth of both vehicle classes will have a major impact on the...

This project adds back quality to the living conditions of the most dense district of Casablanca. By providing the district Maârif with a common center, I consolidate the currently disconnected neighborhoods. The main program on this site is focused around education. Education here is being used as a social equalizer and to communize the...

Traffic congestion at signalized intersections is a big economical and ecological problem. Handcrafted traffic light controllers (TLCs) are currently used to minimize the impact, but they are expensive to design and maintain and their performance degrades over time. Predictive TLCs and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) form a potential...

To reduce the number of traffic accidents on the roads, nowadays computers are aiding humans or taking over control from humans in vehicles. The necessity of Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) in vehicles is growing. New vehicles are being equipped with ADAS, like Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), to avoid head-to-tail collisions. Still,...
