Orobio de Castro, Samuel (author)In 2022, the Netherlands are confronted by two major problems: a housing shortage and an excess of nitrogen emissions. This excess of nitrogen emissions is primarily the result of livestock farms, which cause problems in close proximity to Natura 2000 areas. The housing- and nitrogen crises are intertwined because certain housing developments...master thesis 2023

Anand, Abhijit (author), Leonhardt, Jurek (author), Rudra, Koustav (author), Anand, A. (author)Contextual ranking models have delivered impressive performance improvements over classical models in the document ranking task. However, these highly over-parameterized models tend to be data-hungry and require large amounts of data even for fine tuning. This paper proposes a simple yet effective method to improve ranking performance on...conference paper 2022

Aniche, Maurício (author), Treude, Christoph (author), Zaidman, A.E. (author)One of the main challenges that developers face when testing their systems lies in engineering test cases that are good enough to reveal bugs. And while our body of knowledge on software testing and automated test case generation is already quite significant, in practice, developers are still the ones responsible for engineering test cases...journal article 2021

Applis, L.H. (author), Panichella, A. (author), van Deursen, A. (author)Metamorphic testing is a well-established testing technique that has been successfully applied in various domains, including testing deep learning models to assess their robustness against data noise or malicious input. Currently, metamorphic testing approaches for machine learning (ML) models focused on image processing and object recognition...conference paper 2021

Steijn, Jos (author)Online customer reviews on products have become a large part of marketing intelligence in recent years. These documents are a source of information on what aspects of a discussed product can be improved upon. These aspects are named drivers. CQM, the company in which the internship for which this thesis was written took place, has developed a...master thesis 2020

de Ronde, Anouk (author), van Aken, Marja (author), de Poot, Christianne J. (author), de Puit, M. (author)A previous paper published in this journal proposed a model for evaluating the location of fingermarks on two-dimensional items (de Ronde, van Aken, de Puit and de Poot (2019)). In this paper, we apply the proposed model to a dataset consisting of letters to test whether the activity of writing a letter can be distinguished from the...journal article 2020

Segers, Lennard (author)Customs authorities are responsible for secure cross-border activities and collection of duties. To that extent, customs authorities perform risk assessment. The customs declaration on which risk assessment is based often lacks detailed data or is incorrect. Therefore, customs authorities are in need of new ways to improve risk assessment. One...master thesis 2019

Zhang, Shuoshuo (author), Fu, Shenggui (author), Zhang, Huanian (author), Ge, Xiaolu (author), Bai, Zhidong (author), Lyu, Yudong (author), Zhao, Rui (author), Man, Z. (author)As an intrinsic attribute of light, the spin angular momentum (SAM) of photons has aroused considerable attention because of the fascinating properties emerging from light–matter interactions. We show that a diffraction-limited focal field with a steerable photonic spin structure in three dimensions can be produced under a 4π microscopic...journal article 2019

Fraaije, A. (author), Flipse, S.M. (author)The concept of Responsible Research & Innovation (RRI) seems to gain initial momentum. The lack of collective meaning however, results in a plethora of publications, which describe RRI from ad hoc perspectives. To provide a robust foundation for scholars and practitioners seeking to implement RRI, we aim to integrate those perspectives...review 2019

Vliegenthart, Daniël (author)Named Entity Recognition (NER) for rare long-tail entities as e.g. often found in domain-specific scientific publications is a challenging task, as typically the extensive training data and test data for fine-tuning NER algorithms is lacking. Recent approaches presented promising solutions relying on training NER algorithms in a iterative...master thesis 2018

Grooff, Alexander (author)Since the introduction of Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) in 2008, the number of MOOCs offered by universities has increased enormously. Over 700 universities offer a total of 5924 MOOCs. Each MOOC holds a sequence of 10 to 140 videos and are meant to help online learners understand a given topic. These videos are intended to be watched in a...master thesis 2018

Sleeswijk Visser, F. (author)In Research through Design knowledge is generated, but not always captured and shared effectively. When working in a multidisciplinary team of, e.g. designers, design researchers, academic researchers and domain practitioners confusion about<br/>roles, processes, and results easily occurs. In a series of three Research through Design cases we...conference paper 2018

Pascarella, L. (author), Keshav Ram, A.R. (author), Nadeem, Azqa (author), Bisesser, Dinesh (author), Knyazev, Norman (author), Bacchelli, A. (author)Past research provided evidence that developers making code changes sometimes omit to update the related documentation, thus creating inconsistencies that may contribute to faults and crashes. In dynamically typed languages, such as Python, an inconsistency in the documentation may lead to a mismatch in type declarations only visible at runtime....conference paper 2018

Scherp, L. (author)Airline maintenance technicians (AMTs) often still rely on paper-based documentation when performing a task. In the limited time during unscheduled tasks, obtaining the right information from these documents can take up to 30% of the available time. To speed up this process, in this thesis it is explored how an automated system can be created...master thesis 2016
