Data theory research on the analysis on the multidimensional data

In astronomy, the interpration of observations and measurements plays a crucial role: we rely purely and fundamentally on the information that reaches us as observers. And 80% of all matter in the universe is undetectable directly.

Delineating psychophysiological endophenotypes of social anxiety disorder

Proefschrift van de politicoloog Luzia Helfer (Universiteit Leiden), die in Nederland en in Zwitserland onderzocht op basis van welke criteria journalisten politiek nieuws selecteren en hoe politici besluiten wel of niet te reageren op het nieuws.

Migratie en criminaliteit staan maatschappelijk volop in de schijnwerpers. Binnen het instituut voor Strafrecht en Criminologie heeft onderzoek op dit terrein zich de laatste jaren sterk ontwikkeld. Het begrip Crimmigratie staat daarbij centraal.

Improvements of weak gravitational lensing shape measurements are presented and some used for data analysis.

Has the industrial sector in China effectively been decarbonizing in recent years, across different regions and subsectors, and is it plausible that it will reduce its CO2 emissions in conformity with national and internationally pledged emission goals?

Materials balances have been used in the recent past for the analysis of substance oriented environmental problems and the formulation of measures for environmental policy. In this study an integrated tool, based on the materials balance principle, has been developed for the analysis of both environmental…

Computers zijn in staat om ongelooflijk nauwkeurige voorspellingen te doen op basis van machine learning. Met andere woorden, deze computers kunnen zonder tussenkomst leren als ze eenmaal door mensen zijn voorgeprogrammeerd. Bij LIACS verkennen en verleggen we de grenzen van wat een revolutionaire nieuwe…
