PhD defense of Shuai Wang at VU Amsterdam. They really have a rather "traditional" procedure :wink: The picture was taken after the investiture of the newly promoted PhD in front of the bust of the founder of VU. FYI: the head of the committee is the professor with the chain around his neck. Only full professors are allowed to wear gown and hat. The candidate chose to wear traditional formal Mongolian clothing (traditional local clothing from your home country - besides wearing a black formal attire - is recommended in the official dresscode for the candidate). Probably you will recognize Frank van Harmelen (the official supervisor), Aidan Hogan (besides me the other external reviewer), Jacco van Ossenbruggen (the forth professor), Wouter Beek and Illaria Tidi (external reviewers but not full professors), and Peter Bloem (the direct day-to-day supervisor, being an assistant professor). There are two guys in white tie cutaways in the back, who are the "paranymphs" (aka assistants) of the PhD candidate (in old times, they were allowed to wear a sword, and to defend the candidate against (sword) attacks of the opponent professors, which might occur in heavy academic dispute :wink: )

Part of the ceremony. The committee in robes are sitting behind a table, while one member stands up and speeches. Freshly minted doctor and her paranimphs are standing in front of them, with their backs to the viewer, listening. All are dressed in black. TU Delft logo in background, coat of arms on floor.

Propositions 1. An effective multiple object tracking method for associating the observations must dynamically and adaptively combine motion and appearance features. (Chapter 3) 2. Image data alone is insufficient for internal quality estimation, but can augment other information to make predictions for individual fruits. (Chapter 4) 3. The color spectrum serves as a universal criterion for fruit maturity, offering a reliable and transferable method for evaluation by both humans and robots. (Chapter 5) 4. Training a model using the regret of its decisions leads to an appropriate level of conservatism. (Chapter 6) 5. A research project is like a Lego set: only a few bricks are visible, while a larger, carefully arranged structure supports it. 6. Developing methods for treating a spherical cow is important; however, tailoring these for polygonal or real cows holds equal or greater significance. 7. If we need to categorize based on partial observation or estimation with uncertainty, we have to learn to accept the error. 8. PhD memes are the antidote to the impostor syndrome. 9. Cat propositions are neither opposable nor defendable, and thus not approvable. 10. In the journey of pursuing a PhD, one must have an addiction, among which sports is the healthiest option. These propositions are regarded as opposable and defendable, and have been approved as such by the promotors Prof.dr. M. M. de Weerdt, and Dr. T. Abeel.
