Inverse problems are problems where we want to estimate the values of certain parameters of a system given observations of the system. Such problems occur in several areas of science and engineering. Inverse problems are often ill-posed, which means that the observations of the system do not uniquely…

Polymyxins are clinically used antibiotics, discovered in mid-20th century. Once abandoned due to excessive nephrotoxicity, they are now used increasingly to address infections caused by multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria.In this thesis, we describe the development and synthesis of analogues…

This thesis investigates the structural evolution and assembly of galaxies since the first few billions years after the big bang.

The class-imbalance problem is a challenging classification task and is frequently encountered in real-world applications. Various techniques have been developed to improve the imbalanced classification performance theoretically and practically.

Students with learning problems experience difficulties in reading, writing, and content-area learning into and throughout their secondary-school years

Uncertainty and noise are frequently-encountered obstacles in real-world applications of numerical optimization. The practice of optimization that deals with uncertainties and noise is commonly referred to as robust optimization.

A common method to solve expensive function evaluation problem is using Bayesian Global Optimization, instead of Evolutionary Algorithms.

Can we provide the Dutch government with an integrative framework, wherein the various policies can be placed and the need for further measures can be identified?

With the help of quantum mechanics, digital quantum hardware may be able to tackle some of the problems that are too difficult for ordinary computers. But despite these expectations and the ongoing effort of the research community, reliable quantum computers are not yet realized in a lab setting.

It has been a long-standing mystery how complex biological structures emerge from such seemingly uncoordinated building blocks as cells and tissues, in the presence of only minimal environmental guidance.

This thesis seeks to combine two different research topics; Multi-Objective Optimization and Complex Network Analysis.

This thesis applies data mining in commercial settings in the telecommunications industry.

Wat zijn de beste werkwijzen om studenten te leren omgaan met complexe problemen?

Het doel van het RAISE Onderzoek is om te onderzoeken hoe veerkrachtige mensen omgaan met stress. We kijken specifiek naar hoe belangrijke biologische systemen, zoals de HPA-as en het immuunsysteem, samenwerken met de hersenen en de sociale omgeving om veerkrachtig functioneren na moeilijkheden in de…

We show that Kirchhoff ’s law of conservation holds for non-commutative graph flows if and only if the graph is planar. We generalize the theory of (Euclidean) lattices to infinite dimension and consider the ring of algebraic integers as such a lattice.

Vandaag, 6 februari, is het nieuwe vak het Wicked Problems Lab (voluit: Wicked Problems Lab: working with governance, leadership and social innovation) van start gegaan.

This dissertation is about Bayesian learning from data. How can humans and computers learn from data?

The haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae) comprise about 4000 species distributed over a wide range of habitats, with great gametophytic and sporophytic morphological variation. Their monophyly is well supported by the results of several molecular phylogenetic studies, which shed light on their relationships…

This dissertation studies the Asymptotics of Bayesian nonparametric inference for Gaussian linear models.

Including modelling as part of software development appears to have various benefits.

The key purpose of this project is to study tautological relations on the level of closed differential forms or even integral cochains (i.e. we don't take classes in cohomology).

HEPGAME is a research project that combines the world’s fastest computer algebra system for High Energy Physics equations, FORM, with insights from artificial intelligence. The name combines High Energy Physics and Games.

Soil is a home for an unbelievable diversity and abundance of microbial life that is essential for supporting life on our planet.

Given the accelerating appearance of antimicrobial resistance, there is an urgent need for more fundamental research into novel antibiotic strategies. The work in this thesis helps to address this global problem by developing new antibiotic compounds, inspired by the antibacterial mechanisms of the…
