The hypothesis is that driver behavior is influenced by traffic density in such a way that an approximation of the traffic density can be determined from changes in the driver behavior. Machine learning …

This research is an explorative study to look for the potential to predict traffic density from driver behaviour using signals collected from the Controller Area Network (CAN) bus. The hypothesis is that driver behaviour is influenced by traffic density in such a way that an approximation of the traffic …

Background: Research into termination of long-term psychosocial treatment of mental disorders is scarce. Yearly 25% of people in Dutch mental health services receive long-term treatment. They account for many people, contacts, and costs. Although relevant in different health care systems, (dis)continuation …

During the last decades there has been an uprising in stress related health problems. To counter this growing problem, a system is proposed to detect stress events at an individual level. These events can then be used as feedback in efforts to prevent chronic stress symptoms from developing. To detect …
