Khodabandeh, A. (author), Teunissen, P.J.G. (author), Psychas, D. (author)To obtain single-receiver Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) parameter solutions, the PPP-RTK user-filter combines measurements with time-correlated corrections that are separately computed by the filter of an external provider. The consequence of exercising such double-filtering is that the Kalman filter’s standard assumption of...journal article 2023

Conings, Vincent (author)To ensure long-term sustainable access to space, it is of paramount importance that humankind acts to alleviate the space debris problem in near vicinity of Earth. The most effective mitigation strategy for large debris items is provided by active debris removal missions, which remove one or more resident space objects from orbit. The execution...master thesis 2022

Piera, Sybe (author)Future human-machine control tasks with preview (e.g., car driving) are expected to include automation for safety, but keep operators in charge for liability. Such shared control applications require time-varying human identification because the control feedback should be compatible with the operator's variable behavior. A promising time-domain...master thesis 2022

Improving the Computational Speed of a Tensor-Networked Kalman Filter for Streaming Video Completionvan Koppen, Bram (author)Streaming video completion is the practice that aims to fill in missing or corrupted pixels in a video stream by using past uncorrupted data. A method to tackle this problem is recently introduced called a Tensor Networked Kalman Filter (TNKF). It shows promising results in terms of performance compared to state-of-the-art methods for high...master thesis 2022
