Kaniewski, Tadeusz (author)The computational cost of high-fidelity engineering simulations, for example CFD, is prohibitive if the application requires frequent design iterations or even fully fledged optimization. A popular way to reduce the computational cost and enable fast iteration cycles is to use surrogate models that are trained to predict simulation results from...master thesis 2023

Ihaddouchen, Imane (author)Introduction: In intensive care units (ICU), the most significant life support technology for patients with acute respiratory failure is mechanical ventilation. A mismatch between ventilatory support and patient demand is referred to as patient-ventilator asynchrony (PVA), and it is associated with a series of adverse...master thesis 2023

MENG, YUQI (author)Traditionally, archaeological investigations, especially archaeological remains detection, mostly depend on human observation. In order to find the objects in large areas, a lot of fieldwork has to be done and it takes a long time for archaeologists to travel around. Nowadays, the development of LIDAR provides accurate 3D geometric information,...master thesis 2023

Scholtens, Ekko (author)In this paper, we present a study to improve using neural networks for acoustic reflection localization. Our study focuses on the reimplementation of the proposed neural network model by Bologni et al. and investigates the effect of adding a third microphone to the microphone array. We reimplemented and trained the neural network using the same...bachelor thesis 2023

Simons, Annabel (author)In today's society, claims are everywhere, in the online and offline world. Fact-checking models can check these claims and predict if a claim is true or false, but how can these models be checked? Post-hoc XAI feature attribution methods can be used for this. These methods give scores indicating the influence of the individual tokens on the...bachelor thesis 2023

Bayraktar, Kerem (author)The term ”Algal Bloom” refers to the accumulation of algae in a confined geological space. They may harm human health and negatively affect ecological systems around the area. Thus, forecasting algal blooms could mitigate the environmental and socio-economical damages. Particularly, the use of deep learning methods could distinguish underlying...bachelor thesis 2023

Makaveev, Momchil (author)This project proposes and evaluates a novel concept for an airspeed instrument aimed at small hybrid unmanned aerial vehicles. The working principle is to relate the power spectra of the wall-pressure fluctuations beneath the turbulent boundary layer formed over the vehicle’s body to its airspeed. The instrument consists of two microphones,...master thesis 2023

Huang, Jiongyu (author)A Spiking neural network (SNN) is a type of artificial neural network which encodes information using spike timing, network structure, and synaptic weights to emulate the information processing function of the human brain. Within an SNN, it is always required to support the spike transmission that travels between neurons(array). This thesis aims...master thesis 2023

Edixhoven, Tom (author)In this work we show how Group Equivariant Convolutional Neural Networks use subsampling to learn to break equivariance to their symmetries. We focus on the 2D roto-translation group and investigate the impact of broken equivariance on network performance. We show that changing the input dimension of a network by as little as a single pixel can...master thesis 2023

Malfliet, Jari (author)Wind estimation plays an important role in many aspects of our world, both for nowcasting and forecasting. This is also true for aircraft flight routes; where wind field knowledge can contribute to flight planning and safety. Aircraft can relay flight information back to ground-based receivers, from which local wind measurements can be derived....master thesis 2023

Focante, Edoardo (author)In recent years, neural networks (NNs) have seen a surge in popularity due to their ability to model complex patterns and relationships in data. One of the challenges of using NNs is the requirement for large amounts of labelled data to train the model effectively. In many real-world applications such as radar, labelled data may be scarce due to...master thesis 2023

Thorpe, Matthew (author), van Gennip, Y. (author)Neural networks have been very successful in many applications; we often, however, lack a theoretical understanding of what the neural networks are actually learning. This problem emerges when trying to generalise to new data sets. The contribution of this paper is to show that, for the residual neural network model, the deep layer limit...journal article 2023
