Welcome to the Research Page of Eugene van Someren
Here you will find some of the research results we have been working on. A growing portfolio of online scientific tools can be found on TNO’s DIAMONDS platform and some of it is just the tip of the iceberg.
Each topic described below will have a title, some badges followed by the content. Badges will either indicate a tag/keyword to quickly get an idea of the topic and/or provide a usefull link to discover more. The meaning of the badge-types used on this website is described in more detail here or click on the badge above. Enjoy the content below and feel free to reach out for more information.
Scientific Tool Launched: ESRI - Early Stage Responsible Innovation
ESRI is an online assessment tool that helps companies quickly evaluate the safety and sustainability of new products and technologies from the very beginning of the design process. It aims to support responsible decision-making before significant investments are made or designs are fixed.
Article published: Model development and validation for classifying hypoxia in military aircrew using ECG and skin temperature
Hypoxia Model paper For classifying hypoxic conditions of military aircrew members, this study found a high feature importance of electrocardiogram (ECG)-derived heart-rate variability, ECG-derived respiratory rate intervals and skin temperature. Support vector classification performs best with an accuracy of 90% on a balanced dataset.
Scientific Tool Launched: WASP - Warning flags, design Advice & Screening Priorities
WASP is an online tool to help industry with making products that are Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) early in the innovation stages. With only 12 (+3 optional) questions, the user a) gains insight in which areas require specific attention, b) gets advice on how to best change the design and c) gets advice on what assays and guidelines to follow and which descriptors to measure in the subsequent innovation stage.
