Zhang, Xiaoyu (author), Chandrasegaran, R.S.K. (author), Ma, Kwan Liu (author)Current text visualization techniques typically provide overviews of document content and structure using intrinsic properties such as term frequencies, co-occurrences, and sentence structures. Such visualizations lack conceptual overviews incorporating domain-relevant knowledge, needed when examining documents such as research articles or...conference paper 2021

Aguado, Esther (author), Milosevic, Zorana (author), Hernández, Carlos (author), Sanz, Ricardo (author), Garzon Oviedo, M.A. (author), Bozhinoski, D. (author), Rossi, Claudio (author)Autonomous systems are expected to maintain a dependable operation without human intervention. They are intended to fulfill the mission for which they were deployed, properly handling the disturbances that may affect them. Underwater robots, such as the UX-1 mine explorer developed in the UNEXMIN project, are paradigmatic examples of this...journal article 2021

Bozhinoski, D. (author), Aguado, Esther (author), Garzon Oviedo, M.A. (author), Hernández, Carlos (author), Sanz, Ricardo (author), Wasowski, Andrzej (author)Known attempts to build autonomous robots rely on complex control architectures, often implemented with the Robot Operating System platform (ROS). The implementation of adaptable architectures is very often ad hoc, quickly gets cumbersome and expensive. Reusable solutions that support complex, runtime reasoning for robot adaptation have been...conference paper 2021

Maathuis, E.C. (author)Cyber Warfare is perceived as a radical shift in the nature of warfare. It can represent a real alternative next to other types of Military Operations to achieve military and/or political goals in front of adversaries. To this end, Cyber Operations use specific technologies i.e. cyber weapons/capabilities/means. With a short but intense history...doctoral thesis 2020

Roelofs, M.N. (author), Vos, Roelof (author)In conceptual design of any engineering system, decisions are made regarding which technologies to include and where. One of the first stages of that process is constructing the technology compatibility matrix (TCM), which indicates the compatibility of each pair in a technology set. Rather than constructing a TCM with expert judgment, this...journal article 2020

Mohammadi, Majid (author), Rezaei, J. (author)One of the essential problems in multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) is ranking a set of alternatives based on a set of criteria. In this regard, there exist several MCDM methods which rank the alternatives in different ways. As such, it would be worthwhile to try and arrive at a consensus on this important subject. In this paper, a new...journal article 2020
