Robots’ visual qualities (VQs) impact people’s perception of their characteristics and affect users’ behaviors and attitudes toward the robot. Recent years point toward a growing need for Socially Assistive Robots (SARs) in various contexts and functions, interacting with various users. Since SAR types have functional differences, the user...

Bluyssen, P.M. (author)
Indoor environmental quality is still described with quantitative dose-related indicators, expressed in number and/or ranges of numbers for each of the factors (indoor air, lighting, acoustics, and thermal aspects). Interactions of stressors and effects at and between human and environment level are ignored. Individual differences in needs and...

Software engineers employ a variety of approaches to ensure the quality of software systems, including software testing, modern code review, automated static analysis, build automation, and continuous integration. To make effective decisions regarding quality assurance (QA), software engineers need to have an awareness of (1) the QA approaches...

In driving simulation, the choice of a simulator, motion cueing algorithm, and associated set of tuning parameters for an experiment is typically made with an exclusive focus on the quality of the motion. In practice, many other metrics could affect this choice as well, such as tuning complexity, algorithm stability, or the financial costs of...

Recent years have witnessed video streaming grad- ually evolve into one of the most popular Internet applications. With the rapidly growing personalized demand for real-time video streaming services, maximizing their Quality of Experience (QoE) is a long-standing challenge. The emergence of the server- less computing paradigm has potential to...

Sound evaluation based on listening experiments is very costly and time-consuming. Alternatively, the sounds under evaluation can be compared using psychoacoustic metrics, under the hypothesis that sounds that differ by more than one just-noticeable difference (JND) are perceived as significantly different from each other. Wellestablished...

The efficacy of risk models and risk analyses critically hinges on sufficient model evaluation. Nevertheless, the usefulness for the intended purpose is rarely systematically assessed. Poor or even lacking model evaluation of the applied risk models and analyses also troubles the asset management of storm surge barriers in the Netherlands. In...

The development and widespread adoption of immersive XR applications has led to a renewed interest in representations that are capable of reproducing real-world objects and scenes with high fidelity. Among such representations, point clouds have attracted the interest of industry and academia alike, and new compression solutions have been...

Research has shown that, even though the indoor environmental conditions seem to comply with current guidelines and those conditions seem ‘comfortable’ enough, staying indoors is not good for our health. Reasons for this discrepancy might be the fact that these guidelines are based on single-dose response relationships to prevent negative...

During the COVID-19 outbreak, university courses were shifted online and students spent the majority of their time inside their homes. However, staying indoors can affect students’ health due to the exposure to several environmental stressors, such as background noise, and/or inefficient ventilation, and/or insufficient lighting. Previous...

Machine Learning (ML) projects incur novel challenges in their development and productionisation over traditional software applications, though established principles and best practices in ensuring the project's software quality still apply. While using static analysis to catch code smells has been shown to improve software quality attributes...

The adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in high-stakes domains such as healthcare, wildlife preservation, autonomous driving and criminal justice system calls for a data-centric approach to AI. Data scientists spend the majority of their time studying and wrangling the data, yet tools to aid them with data analysis are lacking. This...

The areas of many cities in the Netherlands are covered by a network of stationary sensors, measuring special components of air pollution such as CO2, NO2, PM2.5 and PM10. The pollution with fine dust along roads, surrounding and crossing the city is primarily related to traffic density. To measure traffic density, we used a license plate...

Research has shown that, even though the conditions seem to comply with current standards for indoor environmental quality (IEQ), staying indoors is not good for our health. We are confronted with diseases and disorders related to IEQ such as mental illnesses, obesity and illnesses that take longer to manifest, among which cardiovascular and...

Watching HMD-based 360° video has become in-creasing popular as a medium for immersive viewing of photo-realistic content. To evaluate subjective video quality, researchers typically prompt users to provide an overall Quality of Experience (QoE) score after viewing a stimulus. However, since users can adjust their viewport throughout a 360°...

Background: Sample Ratio Mismatch (SRM) checks can help detect data quality issues in online experimentation [3]. Not all experimentation platforms provide these checks as part of their solution. Users of these platforms must therefore manually check for SRM, or rely on additional processes—such as checklists [2]—or automation. Objective: To...

BMW’s new driving simulation center operates multiple motion-base simulators – each with a different kinematic configuration – to serve various experiment use-cases and requirements of simulator users. The selection of a simulator for each experiment should ideally be based on their relative strengths and weaknesses. To support this decision...

Electric vehicles (EVs) are playing a crucial role in achieving the carbon neutral goal. To make the charging experience comparable with the refueling of the gasoline cars, more and more chargers are installed and connected to the grid. Meanwhile, the charging power is going up. As a result, more and more power quality issues associated with EV...

The popularity of machine learning has wildly expanded in recent years. Machine learning techniques have been heatedly studied in academia and applied in the industry to create business value. However, there is a lack of guidelines for code quality in machine learning applications. In particular, code smells have rarely been studied in this...

Bayesian Neural Nets (BNN) are increasingly used for robust organ auto-contouring. Uncertainty heatmaps extracted from BNNs have been shown to correspond to inaccurate regions. To help speed up the mandatory quality assessment (QA) of contours in radiotherapy, these heatmaps could be used as stimuli to direct visual attention of clinicians to...
