Stalking is a complex phenomenon that needs to be explained through several frameworks of research. During the years, scientists from the psychological, criminological, psychological, and legal fields made important steps ...

The World Trade Web (WTW) contains a wealth of information that upon rigorous analysis can aid governments in public policy decision-making. In my attempt to provide this valuable input, this dissertation uses two main ...

Nuclear power plants are known for their use of legacy systems and processes. As plants age, the amount of maintenance increases while resources remain finite, leading to unwanted delays, affecting the health of assets and ...

IDS are essential components in preventing malicious traffic from penetrating networks. IDS have been rapidly enhancing their detection ability using ML algorithms. As a result, attackers look for new methods to evade the ...

In recent years, the declining birthrate and ageing population have gradually brought countries into an ageing society. In regards to the accidents that occur amongst the elderly, falls are an important problem that quickly ...

Transfer learning uses a profound labeled set of data from the source domain to deal with a similar problem for the target domain. Transfer learning provides accurate decision- making when insufficient data samples are ...

Machine learning, and most notably deep neural networks, have seen unprecedented success in recent years due to their ability to learn complex nonlinear mappings by ingesting large amounts of data through the process of ...

Modular is a web-based annotation, visualization, and inference software plat-form for computational language and vision research. The platform enables researchers to set up an interface for efficiently annotating language ...

The human hand is a tool that we rely on to conduct a vast variety of tasks, from cracking eggs to lifting boxes. Meanwhile, in an industrial setting, different tools are needed to complete specific tasks. Picking up a box ...
