My LIST OF MY PUBLICATIONS (version November 20 2024) contains detailed information about nearly all my publications. My research output (including my most recent articles published) can also be inspected from this TUDelft website (only output resulting from my time at TUDelft) or from this scholar.google website (also includes research output produced at other institutes).
Below a description of my topics of research is provided, grouped in 4 clusters:
News Driven Financial Time Series Analysis; Scaling Laws for Operational Risk Analysis; Visual Explorations in Finance with Self Organizing Maps, Google Maps, ...; Modeling Sustainable Development and Decision Making using Fuzzy Systems; Providing Intelligent Agents with Moral Reasoning Capabilities; Privacy Enhancing Technologies for Dynamic Informed Consent Decision Making; ICT Tools for supporting Independent Living; Workflow Management and the Electronic Patient Record for realizing Client-Centered Healthcare; Improving Business Performance by KPI-based analysis of business processes performance; Data mining for Forensics and Intrusion Detection; Towards a production environment for (mobile) Apps in the Port of Rotterdam.
They have already been described in the four categories I to IV above.
Having finalized my secundary school in Dordrecht (Gemeentelijk Lyceum, gymnasium-B ) in 1970, I studied mathematics and physics at the TUDelft while being active in the national student movement. In 1977, I received the diplome of Mathematical Engineer.
From 1977-1989, I lectured courses in mathematics, physics and computer science on institutes of higher education in Breda and Eindhoven, and mathematics and physics at the secundary school of Nampula, Mozambique.
From 1989-2006, I worked at the Econometric Institute of Erasmus University Rotterdam. There, I lectured courses in computer science and economics, and did research in many fields, especially in computational intelligence, with applications in combinatorial optimization, finance, agriculture, philosophy, bibliometrics, among others. My PhD-thesis entitled "Neural Relaxation Dynamics" (original repaired version) was finalized in 1996.
From 2006 up till now, I worked at TUDelft again, mostly on topics related to (Big) Data Analytics and/or Cyber Security. On July 9 2013, I was appointed as Full Professor Cyber Security at this university both at the faculty of EEMCS and that of TPM. A video of my inaugural lecture entitled "Real Cyber Security: Virtually Impossible?" is available here. Another, somewhat more popular talk in Dutch about Cybersecurity, I provided in Diligentia for the "Koningklijke Maatschappij voor Natuurkunde", in The Hague, on 16-2-2014. It can be viewed here.
June 2015 I have been appointed as (currently emeritus) Full Professor Cyber Security at Leiden University as well, namely at the Faculty of Governance and Global Affairs.
During my academic career, I supervised - next to providing lecturers in all kind of scientific fields - around 20 students when writing their BSc-theses, more than 190 students when composing their Msc-theses, and around 20 students with their PhD-theses.
Due to my age, I'm now working as an emeritus pensionado... ;-). So, I have got time, next to other activities like writing papers, supervising research, providing two HOVO-courses on Artificial Intelligence (in Tilburg and Rotterdam), and piano playing, to train and run additional marathons. See also this Rotterdam marathon website under "Mannen" (you have to scroll down on this website): my current Super Marathon Masters ranking 14 (on row 14 iin the list) is mentioned as the first one of in total six "32 times finishers", soon to be updated to 33. Next to Rotterdam, I ran 5 other marathons: two times in New York, and one time in Amsterdam, Berlin and Cologne.
