Aquaculture is gaining importance in the current context of continuous growth population as a source of (local) food resources and its potential of being combined with other uses at sea (e.g.: offshore energy production or tourism). Consequently, within the European Horizon 2020 project UNITED, the combination of mussel and seaweed cultivation...

Modeling password distributions is a fundamental problem in password security, benefiting the research and applications on password guessing, password strength meters, honey password vaults, etc. As one of the best segment-based password models, WordPCFG has been proposed to capture individual semantic segments (called words) in passwords....

Distributed Optical Fiber Sensors (DOFS) show several inherent benefits with respect to conventional strain-sensing technologies and represent a key technology for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). Despite the solid motivation behind DOFS-based SHM systems, their implementation for real-time structural assessment is still unsatisfactory...

To date there are few researches on the semantic information of passwords, which leaves a gap preventing us from fully understanding the passwords characteristic and security. We propose a new password probability model for semantic information based on Markov Chain with both generalization and accuracy, called WordMarkov, that can capture the...

Real-time safety systems are crucial components of intelligent vehicles. This paper introduces a prediction-based collision risk assessment approach on highways. Given a point mass vehicle dynamics system, a stochastic forward reachable set considering two-dimensional motion with vehicle state probability distributions is firstly established. We...

Cognitive radar frameworks rely on the ability to quantify and reason on future uncertainty, which allows for the selection of an optimal decision policy. These methods require that the uncertainty estimates provided by the underlying statistical model are well-calibrated, i.e. consistent with true uncertainty. In this work, the utilization of...

Ambiguity sets of probability distributions are a prominent tool to hedge against distributional uncertainty in stochastic optimization. The aim of this paper is to build tight Wasserstein ambiguity sets for data-driven optimization problems. The method exploits independence between the distribution components to introduce structure in the...

Risk assessments in the (cyber) security domain are often, if not always, based on subjective expert judgement. For the first time, to the best of our knowledge, the individual preferences of professionals from the security domain are studied. In on online survey they are asked to mention, rate and rank their preferences when assessing a...

The DIA-method, for the detection, identification and adaptation of modeling errors, has been widely used in a broad range of applications including the quality control of geodetic networks and the integrity monitoring of GNSS models. The DIA-method combines two key statistical inference tools, estimation and testing. Through the former, one...

Success Likelihood Index Model (SLIM) is one of the widely-used methods in human reliability assessment especially when data is insufficient. However, this method suffers from uncertainty as it heavily relies on expert judgment for determining the model parameters such as the rates and weights of the performance shaping factors. The present...

Many railway embankments across Europe were constructed over 150 years ago. These embankments were not subject to rigorous design practice but instead were crudely constructed using end tipping techniques. As a result, the majority of these embankments are overly steep and far in excess of the design angles recommended in Eurocode 7. Over recent...

We perform analysis of public transport data from March 2015 from The<br/>Hague, the Netherlands, combined from three sources: static network information, automatic vehicles location (AVL) and automated fare collection (AFC) data. We highlight the effect of bunching swings, and show that this phenomenon can be extracted using unsupervised...

In many ATM studies experiments are performed to determine the capacity. This paper looks at the effect of airspace design on the capacity. Using an algebraic approach a relation is derived between the design parameters of a layered airspace design and the capacity of the airspace. The validity of the assumptions which are used in this...

Brain signal and eye tracking technology have been intensively applied in cognitive science in order to study reading, listening and learning processes. Though promising results have been found in laboratory experiments, there are no smart reading aids that are capable to estimate difficulty during normal reading. This paper presents a new...

Geotechnical reliability-based limit state design methodologies are rapidly evolving to meet the demands of various applications. However, the accuracy of these new procedures should be independently assessed and improved as new loading test data is made available. This paper focuses on the assessment of two relatively new serviceability limit...

During geotechnical site characterization, many geotechnical properties might be difficult to measure directly and have to be estimated using indirect measurement and regression models. For example, when there is no possibility of direct compression test, geotechnical engineers and practitioners may utilize regression models (i.e. equations) to...

The effect of probability distributions on the slope reliability is highlighted in this study since the lognormal distribution is often used to characterize the variability of soil properties to avoid negative values. A multiple response-surface based MCS method for slope reliability analysis in spatially variable soils is proposed. A...

The required number of soundings for geotechnical site investigation depends on different factors such as geology of the site, soil variability and the type of project to build. Indications on the number of soundings are given in codes of practice (Eurocode 7...) but they focus mainly on a minimal number which depends only on the area of the...

The need for system failure probability, pf , of soil slope stability that takes into account the spatial variation of soil properties has been acknowledged by the geotechnical profession. The spatial variations of cohesion and friction angle for a c-ϕ soil slope were modeled by one dimensional vertical random field respectively. The cross...
