Silvestri, S. (author), Pecnik, Rene (author)We implemented a fast Reciprocal Monte Carlo algorithm to accurately solve radiative heat transfer in turbulent flows of non-grey participating media that can be coupled to fully resolved turbulent flows, namely to Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). The spectrally varying absorption coefficient is treated in a narrow-band fashion with a...journal article 2019

Wang, G. (author), Marradia, Chiara (author), Albayrak, A. (author), van der Cammen, T.J.M. (author)Co-designing with people with dementia (PwD) can uncover their needs and preferences, which have been often overlooked. It is difficult for PwD to understand designers and express themselves in a conventional co-design session. This study aims to evaluate the effects of involving PwD in design research on both PwD and the design process; to...review 2019

Gavriilidou, A. (author), Daamen, W. (author), Yuan, Y. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Operational cycling behaviour is greatly understudied, even lacking a definition of what this behavioural level actually entails in terms of decision making. In this paper, we define the cyclist operational level and argue that it consists of two intertwined processes, a mental and a physical process. The mental process refers to path choices...journal article 2019

Ortiz-Jimenez, Guillermo (author), Coutino, Mario (author), Chepuri, S.P. (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author)We consider the problem of designing sparse sampling strategies for multidomain signals, which can be represented using tensors that admit a known multilinear decomposition. We leverage the multidomain structure of tensor signals and propose to acquire samples using a Kronecker-structured sensing function, thereby circumventing the curse of...journal article 2019

Miri Rostami, Seyyed Reza (author), Mozaffarzadeh, M. (author), Ghaffari-Miab, Mohsen (author), Hariri, Ali (author), Jokerst, Jesse (author)Double-stage delay-multiply-and-sum (DS-DMAS) is an algorithm proposed for photoacoustic image reconstruction. The DS-DMAS algorithm offers a higher contrast than conventional delay-and-sum and delay-multiply and-sum but at the expense of higher computational complexity. Here, we utilized a compute unified device architecture (CUDA) graphics...journal article 2019

(author)The number of queued bicycles on a signalised link is crucial information for the adoption of intelligent transport systems, aiming at a better management of cyclists in cities. An unsupervised machine learning methodology is deployed to produce estimations of accumulation levels based on data retrieved from a bicycle street of the Netherlands....conference paper 2019

Velthoen, J.J. (author), Cai, J. (author), Jongbloed, G. (author), Schmeits, Maurice (author)Aiming to estimate extreme precipitation forecast quantiles, we propose a nonparametric regression model that features a constant extreme value index. Using local linear quantile regression and an extrapolation technique from extreme value theory, we develop an estimator for conditional quantiles corresponding to extreme high probability...journal article 2019

Gama, F. (author), Marques, Antonio G. (author), Ribeiro, Alejandro (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author)Graph neural networks (GNNs) regularize classical neural networks by exploiting the underlying irregular structure supporting graph data, extending its application to broader data domains. The aggregation GNN presented here is a novel GNN that exploits the fact that the data collected at a single node by means of successive local exchanges...conference paper 2019

Narayanan, Prasobh (author), Verhagen, W.J.C. (author), Dhanisetty, V.S.V. (author)Airline operators face accidental damages on their fleet of aircraft as part of operational practice. Individual occurrences are hard to predict; consequently, the approach towards repairing accidental damage is reactive in aircraft maintenance practice. However, by aggregating occurrence data and predicting future occurrence rates, it is...journal article 2019

Gerstoft, Peter (author), Nannuru, Santosh (author), Mecklenbrauker, Christoph F. (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author)The paper considers direction of arrival (DOA) estimation from long-term observations in a very noisy environment. The concern is to derive methods obtaining reasonable DOAs at very low SNR. The noise is assumed zero-mean Gaussian and its variance varies in time and space, causing stationary data models to fit poorly over long observation...journal article 2019

Gudi, A.A. (author), Bittner, M. (author), Lochmans, Roelof (author), van Gemert, J.C. (author)Remote photo-plethysmography (rPPG) uses a remotely placed camera to estimating a person's heart rate (HR). Similar to how heart rate can provide useful information about a person's vital signs, insights about the underlying physio/psychological conditions can be obtained from heart rate variability (HRV). HRV is a measure of the fine...conference paper 2019

Coutino, Mario (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author)As the size of the sensor network grows, synchronization starts to become the main bottleneck for distributed computing. As a result, efforts in several areas have been focused on the convergence analysis of asynchronous computational methods. In this work, we aim to cross-pollinate distributed graph filters with results in parallel computing...conference paper 2019

Prins, Peter J. (author), Wahls, S. (author)Several non-linear fluid mechanical processes, such as wave propagation in shallow water, are known to generate solitons: localized waves of translation. Solitons are often hidden in a wave packet at the beginning and only reveal themselves in the far-field. With a special signal processing technique known as the non-linear Fourier transform ...journal article 2019

(author)The fracture behaviour of joints bonded with a structural epoxy adhesive and bond line thicknesses of 0.1–4.5 mm has been studied. However, limited research is found on similar joints with thicker bond lines, which are relevant for maritime applications. Therefore, the effect of the adhesive bond line thickness, varying from 0.4 to 10.1 mm,...journal article 2019
