Leadership in Human-Robot Teams: Analyzing the Impact of Leadership Styles on Team Dynamics and Perceptions
(2025)Social robots are increasingly capable of taking on complex roles and it is anticipated that they may serve as leaders in human-robot teams. While research in human-robot interaction (HRI) has demonstrated that robots can ... -
Spectral sequences obtained from towers in the infinity category of spectra: décalage, exact couples and Massey products
(2025)There are various ways of constructing spectral sequences from the infinity category of towers of spectra. Classically there is the approach via exact couples; we will also discuss the décalage functor as constructed by ... -
Applying Field Theories: From Polarised Parton Distribution Functions to Neural Networks
(2025)This thesis explores two areas of theoretical physics: contributing to the refinement of polarised Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) and Fragmentation Functions (FFs), and applying an Effective Field Theory (EFT) to ... -
Categorical Quantum Mechanics - constructing the category of homogenous cones
(2025)Category theory provides a unifying language to reason about diverse structures in mathematics and physics. Its foundational perspective proves especially potent for describing and generalizing frameworks in physical ... -
An algebra structure on the homology of free loop spaces
(2025)String topology studies the spaces of paths and loops in a manifold. An interesting topic in this theory is the existence of an algebra structure on the homology of free loop spaces. This algebra structure comes from the ... -
Methylated genes as biomarkers for melanoma prognosis
(2025)Melanoma is a rare but deadly form of skin cancer. Currently, patients undergo excision surgery, followed by adjuvant treatment if the cancer has metastasized. To estimate the prognosis of the disease, pathological examination ... -
Assessing the importance of arm Weakness as a symptom for urgency allocation and diagnosing TIA/Stroke in Out-of-Hours GP Services
(2025)Background: Arm weakness is a common TIA/stroke symptom in the FAST mnemonic but can be difficult to recognise by patients. Rapid identification is crucial, as delayed treatment increases the risk of permanent brain damage. ... -
Analyzing the Potential of MCFC-based CO2 Capture and Storage Onboard Seagoing Vessels: A Techno-Economic Assessment
(2025)Reducing carbon emissions from the naval shipping sector is crucial for lowering global CO2 levels. For complete decarbonization, transitioning to sustainable, non-carbon-based fuels is necessary. However, carbon capture ... -
Dependency on CEP192 and AKAP9 for the organization of the microtubule network
(2025)The microtubule network is organized by microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs). These organize the network by nucleating new microtubules and binding their minus ends. In many types of animal cells, the centrosome functions ... -

Unveiling Cryptic Regulatory Elements in 5’UTRs with DNABert-2: A Comparative Analysis with CNN Models
(2025)5’ Untranslated Regions (UTRs) play a pivotal role in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression, however, investigating these non-coding regions poses significant challenges. The advent of deep learning methods ... -
Modern interpretations and integrations of historical Dutch folk music: connecting past to present.
(2025)Throughout the centuries many original and interpolated folk songs were created and performed in the Netherlands serving different functions; most are not common knowledge anymore. Research has been done into the history ... -
Charting a Paradigm Shift: The Impact of Christie's Auction of AI-generated Edmond de Belamy on the Evaluation of Art
(Utrecht University, 2024-06-13)The following analysis explores debates sparked by Christie's auction of Obvious’ Edmond de Belamy, questioning the change in traditional notions of art, authorship, and creativity, tied to the conception of value (creation) ...
