Mahabir, Ashvant (author)Graphs are used to model irregular data structures and serve as models to represent/capture the interrelationships between data. The data in graphs are also referred as graph signals. Graph signal processing (GSP) can then be applied which basically extends classical signal processing to solve problems. Anomaly detection is an example of such a...master thesis 2017

Bon, Matthijs (author)One way to stimulate a more circular economy, is to explore opportunities for urban mining. This thesis explores a new method to assess the quantity of underground electricity cables which could one day become available for urban mining. This research answers the question: ”To what extent can topological networks be used to localize and quantify...master thesis 2017

Devriendt, Karel (author)As new technologies continue to find their way into everyday life, the world becomes more and more connected. Airplanes and other means of transportation provide global connections in the physical world, while the omnipresence of the Internet means that information is shared around the globe, easier than ever before. But not only these man-made...master thesis 2017

Wang, X. (author), Dubbeldam, J.L.A. (author), Van Mieghem, P.F.A. (author)Kemeny's constant and its relation to the effective graph resistance has been established for regular graphs by Palacios et al. [1]. Based on the Moore–Penrose pseudo-inverse of the Laplacian matrix, we derive a new closed-form formula and deduce upper and lower bounds for the Kemeny constant. Furthermore, we generalize the relation between...journal article 2017

Nourian, Pirouz (author)This dissertation reports a PhD research on mathematical-computational models, methods, and techniques for analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of spatial configurations in architecture and urban design. Spatial configuration is a technical term that refers to the particular way in which a set of spaces are connected to one another as a network....doctoral thesis 2016

Nourian, Pirouz (author), Rezvani, S. (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author), van der Hoeven, F.D. (author)Spatial Networks represent the connectivity structure between units of space as a weighted graph whose links are weighted as to the strength of connections. In case of urban spatial networks, the units of space correspond closely to streets and in architectural spatial networks the units correspond to rooms, convex spaces or star-convex spaces....conference paper 2016

Kwok, T.H. (author), Wan, W. (author), Pan, J. (author), Wang, C.C. (author), Yuan, J. (author), Harada, K (author), Chen, Y. (author)We present a novel method for caging grasps in this paper by stretching ropes on the surface of a 3D object. Both topology and shape of a model to be grasped has been<br/>considered in our approach. Our algorithm can guarantee generating local minimal rings on every topological branches of a given model with the help of a Reeb graph. Cages and...conference paper 2016

Khakzad, N. (author), Landucci, G (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author)In the present study, we have introduced a methodology based on graph theory and multicriteria decision analysis for cost-effective fire protection of chemical plants subject to fire-induced domino effects. By modeling domino effects in chemical plants as a directed graph, the graph centrality measures such as out-closeness and betweenness...journal article 2016

Melese, Y.G. (author), Heijnen, P.W. (author), Stikkelman, R.M. (author), Herder, P.M. (author)Energy and industrial networks such as pipeline-based carbon capture and storage infrastructures and (bio)gas infrastructures are designed and developed in the presence of major uncertainties. Conventional design methods are based on deterministic forecasts of most likely scenarios and produce networks that are optimal under those scenarios....journal article 2016

Loukas, A. (author)We have recently seen a surge of research focusing on the processing of graph data. The emerging field of signal processing on graphs focuses on the extension of classical discrete signal processing techniques to the graph setting. Arguably, the greatest breakthrough of the field has been the extension of the Fourier transform from time signals...doctoral thesis 2015

Otte, P.J. (author)This bachelor thesis concerns the proof of Esperet et al. of the Lov ász-Plummer conjecture, which states that a cubic bridgeless graph has exponentially many perfect matchings. The first part of this thesis treats the concepts used in this proof. By means of examples, small proofs and a structural overview, this proof is made more accessible....bachelor thesis 2014
