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.
A relatively new research field of neurosciences, called Connectomics, aims to achieve a full understanding and mapping of neural circuits and fine neuronal structures of the nervous system in a variety of organisms. This detailed information will provide insight in how our brain is influenced by different genetic and psychiatric diseases, how memory traces are stored and ageing influences our brain structure. It is beyond question that new methods for data acquisition will produce large amounts of neuronal image data. This data will exceed the zetabyte range and is impossible to annotate manually for visualization and analysis. Nowadays, machine learning algorithms and specially deep convolutional neuronal networks are heavily used in medical imaging and computer vision, which brings the opportunity of designing fully automated pipelines for image analysis. This work presents a new automated workflow based on three major parts including image processing using consecutive deep convolutional networks, a pixel-grouping step called connected components and 3D visualization via neuroglancer to achieve a dense three dimensional reconstruction of neurons from EM image data.
This master thesis covers the topics of Customer relationships formation in the IT-outsourcing market on the example of “ABC” company. Most works related to the topic IT outsourcing cover the problems of implementation of IT services and the process of providing them to the customers and mostly all the issues are covered from the perspec-tive of consumers. Thus, problems and results of outsourcing providers of IT services remain almost uncovered. This master thesis is to reveal the specific features of IT out-sourcing business in Belarus and to develop an approach to the formation and construc-tion of a system of relationships between the company and its clients as a source of competitiveness increase.
In today’s market, the process of dealing with textual data for internal and external processes has become increasingly important and more complex for certain companies. In this context,the thesis aims to support the process of analysis of similarities among textual documents by analyzing relationships among them. The proposed analysis process includes discovering similarities among these financial documents as well as possible patterns. The proposal is based on the exploitation and extension of already existing approaches as well as on their combination with well-known clustering analysis techniques. Moreover, a software tool has been implemented for the evaluation of the proposed approach, and experimented on the EDGAR filings, on the basis of qualitative criteria.
Digital innovation in the quality management system from supply chain to final product conformityy
(2019)
As the new revolution is happening in the industry 4.0 as digitalization and the new trend in innovation is taken place. So, we want to digitalize the process from the supply chain to the final product conformity of the aircraft.
So every document which is received from the supplier like (eg.CoC, Inspection report, concession) digitally. When the part is received at the warehouse of the OEM the warehouse personal has a system to say that part A serial no X is the perfect fit for the part no By with the help of QR code and book the part into the ERP.
The biggest challenge we have is to reduce in production inspection method to be done by a human. We want to bring one more upper step that is automation with edition with IOT in the process to give better data processing to the Automation process plus reduce the overall inspection time and what is needed in create a proper visual automation control system and also with help of gauge Rand R make the process more accurate and also certify the traceability of the process . At finally there was so much data and we need data security for that to create a proper data source and data storage for supplier data as well as internal data security.
Cryptorchidism describes a disease, in which one or both testes do not descend into the scrotum properly. With a prevalence of up to 10%, cryptorchidism is one of the most common birth defects of the male genital tract. Despite its associated health risks and accompanying economic damage, resulting from surgery and losses in breeding, studies on canine cryptorchidism and its causes are relatively rare. In this study a relational database for genetic causes of cryptorchidism was established and used as a basis for the identification of candidate genes. Associated regions were analysed by nanopore sequencing with the goal to identify genetic variants correlated with cryptorchidism in German Sheep Poodle.
Neural networks have become one of the most powerful algorithms when it comes to learning from big data sets and it is used extensively for classification. But the deeper the network models, the lesser is the interpretability of such models. Although many methods exist to explain
the output of such networks, the lack of interpretability makes them black boxes. On the other hand, prototype-based machine learning algorithms are known to be interpretable and robust.
Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to find a way to interpret the functioning of the neural networks by introducing a prototype layer to the neural network architecture. This prototype layer will train alongside the neural network and help us interpret the model. We present architectures of neural networks consisting of autoencoders and prototypes that perform activity recognition from heart rates extracted from ECG signals. These prototypes represent the different activity groups that the heart rates belong to and thereby aid in interpretability.
The theoretical foundations of enterprise management using information technology were reviewed; analysis of the effectiveness of the use of information systems in the enterprise; ways of improving the enterprise management mechanism using information systems (on example of Mars Wrigley Confectionery Belarus) have been developed.
In the practice of software engineering, project managers often face the problem of software project management.
It is related to resource constrained project scheduling
problem. In software project scheduling, main resources are considered to be the employees with some skill set and required amount of salary. The main purpose of software
project scheduling is to assign tasks of a project to the available employees such that the total cost and duration of the project are minimized, while keeping in check that
the constraints of software project scheduling are fulfilled. Software project scheduling (SPSP) has complex combined optimization issues and its search space increases exponentially when number of tasks and employees are increased, this makes software project scheduling problem (SPSP) a NP-Hard problem. The goal of software project scheduling problem is to minimize total cost and duration of project which makes it multi-objective problem. Many algorithms are proposed up till now that claim to give near optimal results for NP-Hard problems, but only few are there that gives feasible set of solutions for software project scheduling problem, but still we want to get more efficient algorithm to get feasible and efficient results.
Nowadays, most of the problems are being solved by using nature inspired algorithms because these algorithms provide the behavior of exploration and exploitation. For solving
software project scheduling (SPSP) some of these nature inspired algorithms have been used e.g. genetic algorithms, Ant Colony Optimization algorithm (ACO), Firefly etc.
Nature inspired algorithms like particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithms and Ant Colony Optimization algorithm provides more promising result than naive and greedy algorithms. However there is always a quest and room for more improvement. The main purpose of this research is to use bat algorithm to get efficient results and solutions for software project scheduling problem. In this work modified bat algorithm is implemented where a different approach of random walk is used. The contributions of this thesis are to: (1) To adapt and apply modified multi-objective bat algorithm for solving software project scheduling (SPSP) efficiently, (2) to adapt and apply other nature inspired algorithms like genetic algorithms for solving software project scheduling (SPSP) and (3) to compare and analyze the results obtained by applied nature inspired algorithms and provide the conclusion.
FUSO is one of the Japanese leading manufacturing of trucks and buses in the world and also it is an integral part of Daimler AG. Being a large manufacturer in trucks and buses, Fuso faces some marketing issues due to corrosion issues. Corrosion is one of the major issue to breakdown or damage the performance of the vehicles. To encounter this issue, FUSO initiated new project and called as “Anti-Corrosion Project”. The main mission of this project is to improve the corrosion resistivity or performance of the metal parts. Currently FUSO has almost 70 percent of parts which lies under Grade-III i.e. lesser than the one year corrosion resistivity.
In this project, the corrosion issues are collected by different types of audits like from customer as well as from taking two years old vehicle in worst conditions. Listed corrosion issues further investigated for current specification and requested for new proposal from supplier. Then the proposed solution is internally estimate the cost and make negotiation with the supplier. Later it’s forwarded to meeting with top management for approval. In case of higher corrosion specification, parts are taken from production line and tested in material lab which is available in FUSO. At last, the approved proposal is requested to release the drawing change and further the new proposal will be implemented. Entire project it should be coordinate with all different departments and working with teams gives more deep knowledge about the cause of issues.
With this project, parallel focused on the shop floor developments in return parts management area. FUSO is also responsible for the after sale services. In other words, FUSO provides warranty for the parts which breakdown within three years. Breakdown parts are directly delivered by the customers through dealers for warranty claim, so these parts called Warranty Part Investigation (WPI) parts. Sometimes customer wants to know the cause of the breakdown even though warranty has expired, in this case company will investigate the cause but they don’t provide the warranty. These kind of parts known as Product Quality Report (PQR) parts.
Company has a different shop floor for return parts and these parts are directly received by the company. RPM has four processes i.e. inwarding, pre-analysis, investigation and dispatch or scrap.
Usually, company used to get 30-50 parts per day, recently they decided to receive all the breakdown parts. Hence, it results in increasing the delay of inwarding and other processes. To solve this, standard layout and process are constructed. And, one of the main reasons for inward delay is higher documentation which is basically not required. These are converted into automation or digitalize work. Improvements are done using the lean manufacturing project methodology which results in more inward of failure parts and less inventory.
