Liu, X. (author)Deep learning is the core algorithmic tool for automatically processing large amounts of data. Deep learning models are defined as a stack of functions (called layers) with millions of parameters, that are updated during training by fitting them to data. Deep learning models have show remarkable accuracy gains on visual problems in video and...doctoral thesis 2024

Lengyel, A. (author)Computer vision algorithms are getting more advanced by the day and slowly approach human-like capabilities, such as detecting objects in cluttered scenes and recognizing facial expressions. Yet, computers learn to perform these tasks very differently from humans. Where humans can generalize between different lighting conditions or geometric...doctoral thesis 2024

Hazelaar, Sander (author)New insights into the landing behavior of bumblebees show an adaptive strategy where the optical flow expansion of the landing target is step-wise regulated. In this article, the potential benefits of this approach are studied by replicating the landing experiment with a quadrotor. To this end, an open-loop switching method is developed,...master thesis 2024

Garofano, V. (author), Hepworth, M. (author), Shahin, R. (author), Pang, Y. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)In this study, we investigated autonomous vessel obstacle avoidance using advanced techniques within the Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) framework. We propose a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) based Guidance system for robust path planning avoiding static and dynamic obstacles. For Navigation, we suggest a multi-modal neural...journal article 2024

Basting, Mark (author)In real-life scenarios, there are many variations in sizes of objects of the same category and the objects are not always placed at a fixed distance from the camera. This results in objects taking up an arbitrary size of pixels in the image. Vanilla CNNs are by design only translation equivariant and thus have to learn separate filters for...master thesis 2023
