Disaggregation of Community Level Energy Data to Individual Households: Using sequence-to-point learning

Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) is a well-researched concept that aims to provide insights into individual appliance energy usage without the need for dedicated meters. This paper explores the possibility of applying the NILM concept to disaggregate energy data from a community level to a household level. By doing so, it addresses privacy...

Non-Invasive Monitoring and Prevention of RBD Episodes

The goal of this project was to develop a sensor system that detects Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behaviour Disorder (RBD) episodes in an early stage and brings the patient to a lighter sleep stage at the episode onset. This project was completed in close collaboration with Momo Medical, a fast-growing start-up and developer of the BedSense - a...

The Smart Teddy Project: Design of a data acquisition system to monitor seniors with dementia and detect dangerous situations

The amount of people dealing with dementia is rising globally. The amount of caretakers is, however, not. Therefore, technological aids are needed to support people dealing with dementia and relieve the stress on their caretakers. Current solutions provide tracking of people with dementia. Also, different robots exist that provide people with...

Global Monitoring and Visualization of the Internet

The internet consists of many networks connected by the BGP protocol and can easily be manipulated by a hacker. Every day, hackers reroute internet traffic and use that to impersonate entities such as companies, devices and humans. To detect this rerouting, which is also know as a route leak, a BGP monitor can be used. A BGP monitor checks...

Monitoring-aware IDEs

It has become a common practice for software developers to analyse monitoring data as a means to understand issues, trends and performance of large-scale software systems. The combination of this practice with the software development workflow can however be cumbersome at times. One recent effort into evaluating the effects of integrating...

Autonomous Temperature Sensor for Smart Agriculture: Energy Harvesting and Control

Many countries in the world face the problem of fruit frost during spring, which results in the loss of harvested crops. Solutions exist to prevent the fruit to freeze, however this requires that the temperature is known. Therefore, a smart autonomous temperature sensor network is designed that is capable of acquiring a 3D temperature profile of...

Independent verification of validator performance in the XRP ledger

The XRP network (Ripple network) is a global transaction network that settles trans- actions in seconds. It is a technology that provides new opportunities for traditional fi- nancial institutions and startups. In the XRP network, participants depend on each other’s functioning. However, at present Ripple Labs, Inc. is the only actor monitor-...

Seizure preventing MBAN

Many people worldwide suffer from epileptic seizures and not all of them can be prevented using medicines, this thesis is being done for seizure prevention. This is based on implementing a medical body area network (MBAN) that takes sensory recordings across the whole body. This is needed as the research group that proposes this project found...

Automated Transaction Monitoring

For the past 10 weeks, we have been tasked with improving the performance of the transaction monitoring system of bunq, an internationally active mobile bank. bunq has requested that we improve this system by automating the training of the machine learning model, providing better input data for this model and creating additional machine learning...

Participatory Monitoring Myanmar: A research on the motivation of people in Myanmar to participate in Participatory Monitoring by making use of Q methodology

To study large-scale patterns in the environment, like for example the change of water quality, a constant amount of data over an array of locations and time is required. However, in Myanmar only little data is available about water related topics which makes it hard to monitor changes that are taking place. A relative new and cheap way of...

Non-intrusive patient monitoring for pressure ulcer prevention: Group F - Test Group

Problem Definition<br/>This bachelor final project was an assignment given by the start up Momo Medical named: "Improving health care with technology". This project was to use their existing technology and ideas to create a system to prevent pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcer are the medical condition that happens when a patient is left too long in...

Transaction Monitoring

Being a bank, bunq deals with transaction fraud on a regular basis. All transactions that are handled by bunq are monitored for these cases of fraud by a transaction monitoring system. When this system flags a transaction as being possibly fraudulent, a bunq employee has to manually check this transaction. The problem with the current system is...

Keeping water under surveillance: Control

This thesis describes the work of two students who designed the control system of a stand-alone water well measuring system, named SubDowser. The project was done by order of a proposal from the start-up company SkyDowser. The total thesis group, consisting of three subgroups, was asked to build a working prototype which could measure the water...

Monitoring While Drilling for Investigating Critical Rock and Rock Mass Properties for Blast Design and Underground Support

The aim is to investigate critical rock and rock mass properties for modern blast- and support design and identify potential relations to parameters recorded in conventional Monitoring While Drilling (MWD) applications.

A Smart Home – Analysis and Scheduling

In order to cope with various supply sources and loads in an autonomous micro-grid, a system of sensors and control units was developed. The goals were to cope efficiently in the event of an energy supply shortage, and to prevent such events as much as possible. To achieve these goals the aim was to manage energy in the system as efficiently as...

Een draadloze sensor voor het monitoren van bederfelijke producten

Om een pH-sensor[1], ontwikkeld binnen het PASTEUR-project [2], aan te kunnen sturen en uit te kunnen lezen is een ontwerp voor een sensorsysteem gemaakt dat de pH en temperatuur in vlees kan monitoren. Belangrijke eigenschappen hiervan zijn het lage energieverbruik, de draadloze digitale communicatie en het kleine formaat. Het systeem meet...
