He, Daojing (author), Du, Runmeng (author), Zhu, Shanshan (author), Zhang, Min (author), Liang, K. (author), Chan, Sammy (author)Data island effectively blocks the practical application of machine learning. To meet this challenge, a new framework known as federated learning was created. It allows model training on a large amount of scattered data owned by different data providers. This article presents a parallel solution for computing logistic regression based on...journal article 2022

Varotto, Silvia F. (author), Mons, Celina (author), Hogema, Jeroen H. (author), Christoph, Michiel (author), van Nes, C.N. (author), Martens, Marieke H. (author)Advanced driver assistance systems such as adaptive cruise control (ACC) and lane keeping system (LKS) potentially contribute to reducing crash rates and traffic congestion. On-road studies based on early ACC systems operational at medium–high speeds only have shown that the system reduces the proportion of short time gaps when activated....journal article 2022

Wu, H. (author), Qian, QK (author), Straub, A. (author), Visscher, H.J. (author)Purpose: The recent promotion of prefabricated housing (PH) in China has resulted in a prosperous period for its implementation. However, transaction costs (TCs) cause low economic efficiency to stakeholders and hinder the further promotion of PH. No relevant study has yet been made to investigate the TCs and their causes in the PH field....journal article 2021

Varotto, Silvia F. (author), Jansen, Reinier (author), Bijleveld, Frits (author), van Nes, C.N. (author)Automatic incident detection (AID) systems and variable speed limits (VSLs) can reduce crash probability and traffic congestion. Studies based on loop detector data have shown that AID systems decrease the variation in speeds between drivers. Despite the impact on driver behaviour characteristics, most mathematical models evaluating the...journal article 2021
