Neumann, N.M.P. (author), de Heer, P.B.U.L. (author), Phillipson, F. (author)In this paper, we present implementations of an annealing-based and a gate-based quantum computing approach for finding the optimal policy to traverse a grid and compare them to a classical deep reinforcement learning approach.We extended these three approaches by allowing for stochastic actions instead of deterministic actions and by...article 2023

Arango, A.R. (author), Aguilar, J. (author), R-Moreno, M.D. (author)Hydro-thermal economic dispatch is a widely analyzed energy optimization problem, which seeks to make the best use of available energy resources to meet demand at minimum cost. This problem has great complexity in its solution due to the uncertainty of multiple parameters. In this paper, we view hydro-thermal economic dispatch as a multistage...article 2023

Albers, N. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Brinkman, W.P. (author)Behavior change applications often assign their users activities such as tracking the number of smoked cigarettes or planning a running route. To help a user complete these activities, an application can persuade them in many ways. For example, it may help the user create a plan or mention the experience of peers. Intuitively, the application...article 2022

(author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)Logistics planning is a complex optimization problem involving multiple decision makers. Automated scheduling systems offer support to human planners; however state-of-the-art approaches often employ a centralized control paradigm. While these approaches have shown great value, their application is hindered in dynamic settings with no central...conference paper 2022

Dimitrovski, T. (author), Chiscop, I. (author), Pileggi, P. (author), Panneman, J. (author)Anticipating a highly customized and flexible virtual service portfolio of 6G networks, unprecedented complexity will challenge network manageability if left to human operators. Automation and autonomy are key enablers of next generation cloud networks. With this in mind, we present a demonstrator of ML-assisted user plane resource management...conference paper 2022

(author)The elastic modulus of corrosion product (Ecp) has been reported with significant variations in the literature. This study aims to investigate the Ecp of naturally-generated chloride-induced corrosion products formed in different concrete mixes. Microstructural characterization was conducted through nano-indentation, electron microscopy and...article 2021

Albers, N. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Brinkman, W.P. (author)There is certainly some behavior that you want to change. Maybe you want to become more physically active, call your mother more often or snack less when watching TV at night. Let’s assume that you want to quit smoking. You are not doing this alone, but are supported by your coach Hannah. Hannah constantly persuades you to stick to your...conference paper 2021

Slobbe, A. (author), Allaix, D.L. (author), Yang, Y. (author)Different analytical models exist to predict the shear strength of reinforced concrete members. Generally, each of these shear strength models consists of a formulation based on certain underlying theory and fitted model coefficients. The model fitting parameters are usually established from the comparison with test data. Hence, the predictive...conference paper 2017
