Eekhout, I. (author), van Buuren, S. (author), Visser, B. (author), Bink, M.C.A.M. (author), Huisman, A. (author)Intensive longitudinal data can be used to explore important associations and patterns between various types of inputs and outcomes. Nonlinear relations and irregular measurement occasions can pose problems to develop an accurate model for these kinds of data. This paper focuses on the development, fitting and evaluation of a prediction model...article 2023

Gozzini, S.R. (author)An anomalous flux of neutrinos produced in hypothetical annihilations or decays of dark matter inside a source would produce a signal observable with neutrino telescopes. As suggested by observations, a conspicuous amount of dark matter is believed to accumulate in the centre of our Galaxy, which is in neat visibility for the Mediterranean...conference paper 2021

(author), on behalf of the KM3Net Collaboration, (author)The identification of cosmic objects emitting high energy neutrinos could provide new insights about the Universe and its active sources. The existence of these cosmic neutrinos has been proven by the IceCube collaboration, but the big question of which sources these neutrinos originate from, remains unanswered. The KM3NeT detector for...conference paper 2021

Mohammadi, M. (author), Atashin, A.A. (author), Hofman, W. (author), Tan, Y. (author)Ontology alignment is widely used to find the correspondences between different ontologies in diverse fields. After discovering the alignments, several performance scores are available to evaluate them. The scores typically require the identified alignment and a reference containing the underlying actual correspondences of the given ontologies....article 2018

van Kampen, J. (author), van der Beek, D. (author), Steijn, W. (author), Groeneweg, J. (author), Guldenmund, F. (author)Background. Organisations spend a considerable amount of time and effort on diagnosing and analysing risks within their organisation. In the area of occupational and process safety, a myriad of employee survey instruments is available. Many studies show that operational processes play an important role in an organisations overall safety. Yet, so...article 2017

Naus, H.W.L. (author), Zwamborn, A.P.M. (author)The reception of electromagnetic signals depends on the polarisation matching of the transmitting and receiving antenna. The practical matching differs from the theoretical one because of the noise deterioration of the transmitted and eventually received electromagnetic field. In other applications, the polarisation parameters of the receiving...article 2014

Naus, H.W.L. (author), Zwamborn, A.P.M. (author)To evaluate a system or platform on its electromagnetic compatibility generally involves the application of several EMC standards. In order to compare applicable standards, one needs a common denominator as a basis. In this study, EMC norms for electromagnetic radiation are assessed statistically. A framework describing stochastic...article 2012

Muntendam-Bos, A.G. (author), Fokker, P.A. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)In an attempt to derive more information on the parameters driving compaction, this paper explores the feasibility of a method utilizing data on compaction-induced subsidence. We commence by using a Bayesian inversion scheme to infer the reservoir compaction from subsidence observations. The method's strength is that it incorporates all the...article 2009

Naus, H.W.L. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)A selection of the literature on the statistical description of electromagnetic fields and complex cavities is concisely reviewed. Some essential concepts, for example, the application of the central limit theorem and the maximum entropy principle, are scrutinized. Implicit assumptions, biased choices of variables and constraints, and some...article 2008

Naus, H.W.L. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)The emission of electromagnetic radiation by localized complex electric charge and current distributions is studied. A statistical formalism in terms of general dynamical multipole fields is developed. The appearing coefficients are treated as stochastic variables. Hereby as much as possible a priori physical knowledge is exploited. First...article 2007

Douwes, M. (author), de Kraker, H. (author), Blatter, B.M. (author), TNO Kwaliteit van Leven (author)A long duration of computer use is known to be positively associated with Work Related Upper Extremity Disorders (WRUED). Self-report by questionnaire is commonly used to assess a worker's duration of computer use. The aim of the present study was to assess the validity of self-report and computer use software (WorkPace®) to assess the duration...article 2007
