Predictive maintenance is the promise of the future in infrastructure asset management. Predictive maintenance more and more uses sensor data. Sensors are relatively cheap, and their data mostly comes in huge quantities. Trends or flags may be observed in the data, sometimes with traditional statistical …

Introduction: Many adults do not reach the recommended physical activity (PA) guidelines, which can lead to serious health problems. A promising method to increase PA is the use of smartphone PA applications. However, despite the development and evaluation of multiple PA apps, it remains unclear how …

Organizations collect a vast amount of data of different types, from various sources, and through different channels. Primarily, these data are used by these organizations to facilitate their core business processes. However, today we witness a growing tendency to use these data for other purposes than …

Op donderdag 12 november 2020 organiseert het Kennisnetwerk Data Science een webinar over Data Science for Life Sciences. Wynand Alkema, Lector Data Science aan de Hanzehogeschool Groningen, zal een introductie verzorgen over hoe data science wordt toegepast in Life Sciences en welke technieken worden …

The value of a decision can be increased through analyzing the decision logic, and the outcomes. The more often a decision is taken, the more data becomes available about the results. More available data results into smarter decisions and increases the value the decision has for an organization. The …

Continuous monitoring, continuous auditing and continuous assurance are three methods that utilize a high degree of business intelligence and analytics. The increased interest in the three methods has led to multiple studies that analyze each method or a combination of methods from a micro-level. However, …

Het doel van dit onderzoek is het ontwikkelen van een model op basis van technieken uit het veld Educational Data Mining (EDM) die door individuen zowel bekend als onbekend met het veld (EDM) in gebruik genomen kan worden om studiesucces (al dan niet doorstromen naar het tweede leerjaar) mee te kunnen …

The goal of this study was therefore to test the idea that computationally analysing the Fontys National Student Surveys (NSS) open answers using a selection of standard text mining methods (Manning & Schütze 1999) will increase the value of these answers for educational quality assurance. It is expected …
