Sensor fusion is an important and crucial topic in many industrial applications. One of the challenging problems is to find an appropriate sensor combination for the dedicated application or to weight their information adequately. In our contribution, we focus on the application of the sensor fusion concept together with the reference to the distance-based learning for object classification purposes. The developed machine learning model has a bi-functional architecture, which learns on the one side the discrimination of the data regarding their classes and, on the other side, the importance of the single signals, i.e., the contribution of each sensor to the decision. We show that the resulting bi-functional model is interpretative, sparse, and simple to integrate in many standard artificial neural networks.
The study “Proteomic and systems biological database analysis of changed proteins from rat brain tissue after diving “ is about system biological testing of proteomic data obtained by rat brain after experimental diving in a pressure chamber. Basically, brain tissue from animal decompression sickness (DCS) was analyzed by mass spectrometry and has given two larger sets of modified proteins. Thereupon, the resulting up- and down-regulated proteins wereidentified and later compared by means of systems of biological databases, in this case GeneGo MetaCoreTM, in order to find similar or various affected cell biological signaling pathways when two different mass-spectrometry methods were compared.
Evolution of Game Music : a look at characteristic elements of music in video games across time
(2015)
Music in video games is a subject worth regarding. Nevertheless, it isn't totally explored yet. This thesis shows and explains characteristics every video game music has and explores them regarding the developments in the history of video games. The thesis contains information about video games that inspired the musical evolution of games or that contain music as key part, as well as information about technological advances that influenced the musical evolution.
Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a very common, yet infectious and sometimes lethal disease. Therefor, this disease is connected to high costs of diagnosis and treatment. To actually reduce the costs for health care in this matter, diagnosis and treatment must get cheaper to conduct with no loss in predictive accuracy. One effective way in doing so would be the identification of easy detectable and highly specific transcriptomic markers, which would reduce the amount of work required for laboratory tests by possibly enhanced diagnosis capability.
Transcriptomic whole blood data, derived from the PROGRESS study was combined with several documented features like age, smoking status or the SOFA score. The analysis pipeline included processing by self organizing maps for dimensionality and noise reduction, as well as diffusion pseudotime (DPT). Pseudotime enabled modelling a disease run of CAP, where each sample represented a state/time in the modelled run. Both methods combined resulted in a proposed disease run of CAP, described by 1476 marker genes. The additional conduction of a geneset analysis also provided information about the immune related functions of these marker genes.
Decentralizing Smart Energy Markets - tamper-proof-documentation of flexibility market processes
(2020)
The evolving granularity and structural decentralization of the energy system leads to a need for new tools for the efficient operation of electricity grids. Local Flexibility Markets (or "Smart Markets") provide platform concepts for market based congestion management. In this context there is a distinct need for a secure, reliable and tamper-resistant market design which requires transparent and independent monitoring of platform operation. Within the following paper different concepts for blockchain-based documentation of relevant processes on the proposed market platform are described. On this basis potential technical realizations are discussed. Finally, the implementation of one setup using Merkle tree operations is presented by using open source libraries.
In the context of globalization and the internationalization of international markets, mergers and acquisitions are becoming increasingly important for transnational corporations and national economies of countries as a form of internationalization, integration and the way to attract foreign investment. In the framework of this paper, the theoretical aspects of mergers and acquisitions have been analyzed, and the experience of Germany, China and Russia in attracting investments through mergers and acquisitions has been examined, and the success of this method for each country has been assessed.
This Master Thesis covers two main Topics: Sharing Economy and Risk Management and combines them in frames of this paper in order to provide a methodology (Uber was chosen as an example) of how a risk management process may be applied to a Sharing Economy business, as well as which types of risks are of special relevance for those types of businesses.
Differentiation is ubiquitous in the field of mathematics and especially in the field of Machine learning for calculations in gradient-based models. Calculating gradients might be complex and require handling multiple variables. Supervised Learning Vector Quantization models, which are used for classification tasks, also use the Stochastic Gradient Descent method for optimizing their cost functions. There are various methods to calculate these gradients or derivatives, namely Manual Differentiation, Numeric Differentiation, Symbolic Differentiation, and Automatic Differentiation. In this thesis, we evaluate each of the methods mentioned earlier for calculating derivatives and also compare the use of these methods for the variants of Generalized Learning Vector Quantization algorithms.
Over recent years, Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) has gained significant importance within the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. Remarkably, within just two years of its emergence, MEV has seen an extraction of approximately 600 million USD - a phenomenon that has sparked concerns regarding potential threats to blockchain stability.
With growing interest in the Ethereum network and the growing DeFi sector, research surrounding MEV has substantially increased. This work aims to offer a comprehensive understanding of MEV. Additionally, this research quantifies the largest types of MEV (Arbitrage, Sandwich and Liquidations) from March 2022 to March 2023. The data are then compared to other sources, revealing a general upward trend, with a particularly noticeable increase in Sandwich Attacks.
This thesis aims to research the platform YouTube and whether “being a YouTuber” qualifies as a profession or not and what leads to this. The author combines existing scientific data and information provided by YouTubers doing this as a job and uses the compilation method. The author merges that material and uses it to create a bachelor thesis that covers both the theoretical and practical approach. The aim was to find out if there is a success recipe that can be followed that leads to views and clicks which are essential for the profession as a YouTuber. To do this, the author created two channels to see how the factors mentioned in this thesis are applied and if the approach leads to success. The findings of this thesis showed, that although the profession of a YouTuber can be classified as a job, it needs to be viewed differently from commonly known and in society accepted careers. Becoming a YouTuber and making money from this business, therefore, cannot be guaranteed.
