Open OpportunitiesAfter a neurological injury (such as stroke), many patients suffer from impairment of the hand and finger function. Clinical assessments aim to measure and quantify those impairments for a better understanding and to specifically target those deficits in rehabilitation. One aspect of hand function, that is not truly understood yet is finger individuation: the ability to move one finger independently of the others. In a previously developed assessment device, we use force sensors attached to a hand module to measure this dexterous skill. This individuation device measures finger flexion (pushing) over different force levels, but the individuation ability in extension (pulling) remains unknown. The aim of this project is to implement an extension assessment (by adapting the existing protocol) and compare as well as test it before its implementation into the clinical routine. - Biomedical Engineering, Clinical Sciences, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Human Movement and Sports Science, Interdisciplinary Engineering, Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, Neurosciences, Other

In a previously developed assessment device, we use force sensors attached to a hand module to measure this dexterous skill. This individuation device measures finger flexion (pushing) over different force levels, using a simple user interface. But to facilitate the measurement process and increase comprehension for cognitively impaired patients, we need to improve the assessment visualization and execution. - Computer Software, Electrical and Electronic Engineering

But before it can routinely be put into practice, its reliability (in a test-retest setting) and validity must be proven. - Biomedical Engineering, Clinical Sciences, Human Movement and Sports Science, Neurosciences, Other, Public Health and Health Services

| Ski touring provides a unique and immersive outdoor experience, but the ascent can impose a considerable amount of strain on the body, especially for novices, elderly, or people with disabilities. The objective of this master thesis is to redesign an existing concept and functional model of an electric ski touring device that supports hill ascents, aiming to enhance the ski touring experience for individuals with lower fitness levels by making it less physically demanding and more enjoyable. The current model must be optimized with respect to weight, function, energy consumption, and usability (donning/doffing). After successful fabrication and testing, first steps shall be performed to identify intellectual property and market needs, and finally plan the commercialization of the e-touring ski. - Engineering and Technology

| In this project, we want to explore the application of predictive stability filters for automotive applications. Predictive stability filters allow augmenting human or learning-based controllers such that safety in terms of constraint satisfaction as well as stability of a desired setpoint can be guaranteed. Such algorithms present possible solutions for automotive applications such as, e.g., lane keeping. - Engineering and Technology, Systems Theory and Control

| The primary objective of this project is to develop an automated pipeline for the identification and recognition of patterns within urodynamic recordings, utilizing urodynamic recording data in conjunction with annotated patterns provided by experts. This endeavor seeks to reduce the susceptibility of interpreting urodynamic recordings to potential errors arising from human judgment and inaccuracies, thereby improving the management of urinary tract complications in patients with spinal cord injury. By implementing a systematic approach to pattern recognition in Bladder Valomue/Pressure Time Series Measurements of urodynamic data, the potential for error in decision-making can be significantly reduced. - Artificial Intelligence and Signal and Image Processing, Biomedical Engineering, Biosensor Technologies, Computer Hardware, Computer-Human Interaction, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Engineering/Technology Instrumentation, Mechanical Engineering, Medical Biotechnology

| Open vocabulary video semantic segmentation (OV-VSS) aims to assign a semantic label to each pixel of each frame of the video given an arbitrary set of open-vocabulary category names. There are a number of attempts on open vocabulary image semantic segmentation (OV-ISS). However, OV-VSS does not get enough attention due to the difficulty of video understanding tasks in modeling local redundancy and global correlation. In this master thesis project, we plan to fill the gap by extending existing OV-ISS methods to OV-VSS. Specifically, we aim to develop a OV-VSS method which achieves high accuracy by using temporal information and keeps high efficiency.
