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.
In this work, a transgenic zebrafish line that expresses the fluorophore dsRed under the endogenous zebrafish cochlin promotor is supposed to be established, using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. dsRed was cloned into a pBluescript vector, followed by the cloning of the cochlin locus into this vector. This bait construct was then supposed to be micro injected into wild type AB zebrafish embryos. The micro injection of Cas9 mRNA, single guide RNA and a bait construct was practiced with the tyrosinase gene, which was disrupted using CRISPR/Cas9.

The following is a description and outline of the work done at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology developing Nation Feathers VR, a virtual reality game for learning about bird calls and songs. The goal was to develop a game which is intuitive, educational and entertaining. Furthermore, the software needed to be structured in a way that allows for feasible future expansion. This required careful data saving and retrieval. The game gives the player an opportunity to learn and apply that knowledge, all while maintaining a shorter runtime in order to reduce the total time spent in the virtual world. This is meant to prevent any discomfort to the player that may result from extended use of the VR headset.
In this thesis, the changes in economy and society and the resulting effects on the labor market are being outlined. Current studies show that the shrinking labor market and the increasing digitalization result in a lack of skilled tech talent and a transition from an employer market to a clear employee market. Derived from the findings of the scientific research on this topic and conducted expert interviews, practical recommendations for recruitment actions within the scope of employer branding will be defined in order to help corporations to gain the needed tech skill set and drive innovation.
In this work a second version for the Python implementation of an algorithm called Probabilistic Regulation of Metabolism (PROM) was created and applied to the metabolic model iSynCJ816 for the organism Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. A crossvalidation was performed to determine the minimal amount of expression data needed to produce meaningful results with the PROM algorithm. The failed reproduction of the results of a method called Integrated and Deduced Regulation of Metabolism (IDREAM) is documented and causes for the failed reproduction are discussed.
Studying and understanding the metabolism of plants is essential to better adapt them to future climate conditions. Computational models of plant metabolism can guide this process by providing a platform for fast and resource-saving in silico analyses. The reconstruction of these models can follow kinetic or stoichiometric approaches with Flux Balance Analysis being one of the most common one for stoichiometric models. Advances in metabolic modelling over the years include the increasing number of compartments, the automation of the reconstruction process, the modelling of plant-environment interactions and genetic variants or temporally and spatially resolved models. In addition, there is a growing focus on introducing synthetic pathways in plants to increase their agricultural potential regarding yield, growth and nutritional value. One example is the β-hydroxyaspartate cycle (BHAC) to bypass photorespiration. After the implementation in a stoichiometric C3 plant model, in silico flux analyses can help to understand the resulting metabolic changes. When comparing with in vivo experiments with BHAC plants, the metabolic model can reproduce most results with exceptions regarding growth and oxaloacetate. To evaluate whether the BHAC is suitable to establish a synthetic C4 cycle, the pathway is implemented in a two-cell type model that is capable of running a C4 cycle. The results show that the BHAC is only beneficial under light limitation in the bundle sheath cell. An additional engineering target for improved performance of plants is malate synthase. This work serves as the basis for further analyses combining the different factors boosting the advantages of the BHAC and for in vivo experiments in C3 and C4 plants.
The larval zebrafish mutant Knörf has got a not yet identified gen, which is lethal after 14 dpf in a homozygous state. The mutation courses various degenerations and the loss of the regeneration ability. One of these degenerations was first discovered in the retina by a histological section. The mutants retinas show gaps in the IPL at 7 and 8 dpf which number increases during the maturation of the larva. In recent studies a pax 6 staining was performed, which showed that amacrine cells areaffected. Different types of amacrine cells were tested and it was shown that the parvalbuminergic amacrine cells disappear. The staining was performed in a time course. At 5 dpf is no difference between the number of parvalbuminergic amacrine cells in siblings and mutants but then the degeneration starts. At 2 dpa there is thefirst significant difference which increases at later stages and leads nearly to a full disappearance of these cells in the eye. Parvalbumin is not only present in the retina, therefore the brain as another central nervous system structure was examined. In the telencephalon these cells disappear already at 2 dpa. The parvalbuminergic cells are also present in the skeletal muscle of the tail. Here the degeneration starts approximately at the half of the tail and intensifies to distal areas. It was shown, that parvalbuminergic cells in the muscle disappear until 4dpa. The role of parvalbumin is seemed in the binding ofcalcium and therefore it supports the adjustment of the resting potential after an excitation in the central nervous system. In muscles it assists in the slowing of relaxing after a contraction of a muscle.
The aim of this bachelor thesis was to establish extracytoplasmic function (ECF) σ factors as synthetic genetic regulators for biotechnological and synthetic biology applications in the new emerging model organism Vibrio natriegens. Therefore, synthetic genetic circuits were engineered on plasmids as test set-up for the investigated ECFs and their target promoters. The resulting plasmid library consisted of the reporter plasmids with the target promoter, fused to a lux cassette, a set of high-copy ECF plasmids and a backup set of lower-copy ECF plasmids. First, the high-copy plasmids were transformed in V. natriegens to test them for their functionality upon different inducer levels, which yielded good inducibility for few, but showed too high ECF-expression in most strains. For this reason, the set of lower copy plasmids was used for combinatorial co-transformation, to investigate the ECFs for their cross-talk to unspecific ECF target promoters. The switching to the lower-copy plasmid-set seemed to be partly helpful, while still much room for fine-tuning of the circuits remains. The knowledge gained can be used to achieve higher success rates when engineering synthetic circuits for various applications in V. natriegens, by using the ECFs here recommended as suitable synthetic genetic regulators.
The epithelial membrane proteins (EMP1-3), which belong to the family of peripheral myelin proteins 22-kDa (PMP22), are involved in epithelial differentiation. EMP2 was found to be a downstream target gene of the tumor suppressor gene HOPX, a homeobox-containing gene. Additionally, a dysregulation of EMP2 has been observed in various cancers, but the function of EMP2 in human lung cancer has not yet been clarified.
In this study, a real-time RT-PCR, Western blot and cytoblock analysis were performed to analyze the expression of EMP2. Gain-of-function was achieved by stable transfection with an EMP2 expression vector and loss-of-function by siRNA knockdown. Stable transfection led to overexpression of EMP2 at both mRNA and protein levels in the transfected cell lines H1299 and H2170.
Functional assays including proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion assays as well as cell cycle analyzes were performed after stable transfection and it was found that the ectopic EMP2 expression resulted in a reduced cell proliferation, migration and invasion as well as a G1 cell cycle arrest. After the EMP2 gene was silenced by the siRNA knockdown, inhibition of the cell invasive property was observed. These phenomena were accompanied by reduced AKT, mTor and p38 activities.
Taken together, the data suggest that the epithelial membrane protein 2 (EMP2) is a tumor suppressor and exerts its tumor suppressive function by inhibiting AKT and MAPK signaling pathways in human lung cancer cells.

In an era of global climate change and fast growing cities, local governments are in an urgent need for adopting sustainable urban growth concepts for tackling a liveable and prosperous urban future. Against this background, the smart city notion progressively gained popularity as an urban development concept, which heavily relies on technology and urban data use for fostering sustainable urban growth. However, so far, the understandingof the smart city term is ambiguous, and little scientific research has been done on developing comprehensive conceptual frameworks to support local governments in the making of smarter cities. This paper aims at presenting the current state-of-the-art of smart city research in order to support the making of smart city best practices and to promote a comprehensive understanding of the smart city notion. In doing so, the role of technology in the making of smarter cities and critical success factors in transforming cities are elaborated, following the methodological approach of a multidimensional conceptual framework. The research findings and an expert interview with a representative of the state capital will then serve for the assessment of the weak points and best practices in the smart city pursuit of the German city Munich, providing urban policymaking with valuable insights and fostering the development of a comprehensive smart city conceptualism.

Object detection and classification is active field of research inmachine learning and computervision. Depending on the application there are different limitations to adjust to, but also possibilities to take advantage of. In my thesis, We focus on classification and detection of video sequence during night-time and the proposed method is robust since it does use image thresholding [8] which is commonly use in other methods and the thesis uses histograms of oriented gradients (HOG) [37] as features and support vector machine (SVM) [74] as classifier. It is of great importance that the extracted features from the images should be robust and distinct enough to help the classifier distinguish between high-beam and a low-beam. The classifier is part of the object detection which predicts whether or not a testing image matches one group or the other. In our case that is predicting whether or not an image belongs to high or low-beam sequence.

In this thesis, we implement, correct, and modify the compartmental model described in “Transmission Dynamics of Large Coronavirus Disease Outbreak in Homeless Shelter, Chicago, Illinois, USA, 2020”. Our objective is to engage in reading and understanding scientific literature, reproduce the results, and modify or generalize an existing mathematical model. We provide an overview of epidemiological models, focusing on simple compartmental SEIR models. We correct inaccuracies and misprints in the original implementation and use the limited-memory Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno algorithm to fit the model’s parameters. Furthermore, we modify the model by introducing an additional compartment. The resulting model has a more intuitive interpretation and relies on fewer assumptions. We also perform the fitting process for this alternative model. Finally, we demonstrate the advantages of our modified implementations and discuss other possible approaches.
This thesis deals with the development of a methodology / concept to analyse targeted attacks against IIoT / IoT devices. Building on the established background knowledge about honeypots, fileless malware and injection techniques a methodology is created that leads to a concept of a honeypot analyzation system. The system is created to analyse and detect novel threats like fileless attacks which are often utilized by Advanced Persistent Threats. That system is partially implemented and later evaluated by performing a simulated attack utilizing fileless attacks. The effectiveness is discussed and rated based on the results.
A number of real time PCR approaches have been published in the literature. In this thesis, the suitability of different real time PCR approaches using hydrolysis probes have been evaluated regarding PCR performance, cost effectiveness as well as handling. The effect of double-quenched probes as well as the impact of the increase of relative Flap endonuclease amount in quantitative real time PCR has been examined. In terms of genotyping a TaqMan™ assay, considered to be the gold-standard in this application, has been tested and compared to phosphorothioate modified probes, allele specific primers, SNAKE primers, an allele specific probe and primer assays as well as an assay using minor groove binder probes. Promising observations have been made in the case of double-quenched probes, phosphorothioate modified probes, SNAKE primers as well as minor groove binder probes.

In the present bachelor thesis, nanopore sequencing and Illumina sequencing was compared using pollen DNA collected from honeybees and bumble bees. Therefore, nanopore sequencing was performed with the MinION sequencers and the generated reads were analysed with bash programming. A quantitative and qualitative (based on ITS2 sequences) BLAST run was performed. The results confirme the error probability of nanopore sequencing that is described in the literature. Nevertheless, with both sequencing methods similar sample preferences of the bees could have been observed, allowing ecological conclusions.
The main purpose of this Bachelor thesis was to find and to compile comprehensive information on barley genes expressed in the context of pollen embryogen esis. In the present study, this approach was confined to genes that were previously known to be associated with the initiation of embryogenesis in different plant species.

In this work, we discuss the key role that “conflict minerals” (Gold, Coltan, Cobalt, Tin, Tungsten) play in global supply chains and high-technology industries, and the issues surrounding their extraction and trade in origin
countries, particularly in the African Congo Basin and the Great Lakes Region. We discuss ongoing international efforts to combat violence, child labour and human rights violations at mineral extraction areas, particularly in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), where very large mineral reserves have been discovered. We present the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, and the
GOTS MineralTrace mineral proof-of-origin and trade chain certification solution developed by ibes AG in Germany, which automates and simplifies the implementation of the OECD Guidance. We discuss a pilot project in DRC involving the GOTS GoldTrace application, based on the MineralTrace platform. We point out MineralTrace’s benefits and its limitations. We analyse possible solutions to said limitations, including an analysis of blockchain-based transactional information exchange and record keeping systems, and finally we propose a new MineralTrace Application Programming Interface (API) that solves current limitations, introduces configuration flexibility for client applications, introduces workflow flexibility to adapt MineralTrace to any country or region, and simplifies data export functionality.
The GeoFlow II experiment aims to replicate Earth’s core dynamics using a rotating spherical container with controlled temperature differences and simulated gravity. During the GeoFlow II campaign, a massive dataset of images was collected, necessitating an automated system for image processing and fluid flow visualization in the northern hemisphere of the spherical container. From here, we aim to detect the special structures appearing on the post processed images. Recognizing YOLOv5’s proficiency in object detection, we apply Yolov5 model for this task.
Simulating complex physical systems involves solving nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs), which can be very expensive. Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) has recently been used to generate solutions to PDEs-governed complex systems without having to numerically solve them.
However, concerns are raised that the standard GAN system cannot capture some important physical and statistical properties of a complex PDE-governed system, along side with other concerns for difficult and unstable training, the noisy appearance of generated samples and lack of robust assessment methods of the sample quality apart from visual examination. In this thesis, a standard GAN system is trained on a data set of Heat transfer images. We show that the generated data set can capture the true distribution of training data with respect to both visual and statistical properties, specifically the vertical statistical profile. Furthermore, we construct a GAN model which can be conditioned using variance-induced class label. We show that the variance threshold t = 0. 01 constructs a good conditional class label, such that the generated images achieve 96% accuracy
rate in complying with the given conditions.
The computer based calculation of the sound insulation in between dwellings or the analysis of the transmission in a building are common use in practice of a building acoustic engineer. With the release of the revised DIN 4109 in July 2016 a whole new calculation model was introduced to the German users of this standard. The calculation model and its input data now need to be included into existing calculation software, such as the software SONarchitect ISO of the Spanish developers Sound of Numbers. For this cause this thesis compares the input parameter and the airborne and impact sound transmission of the DIN 4109:2016-07 and European standard EN 12354:2000. With the help of this comparison it now is possible to declare all necessary parameter and calculation procedures for the calculation of the airborne and impact sound insulation between dwellings.
This thesis proposes a solution to the practical problem of supervising relatively basic mechanic processes in robotics by means of computervision. Supervision happens by comparing the tracked movement with a known, ideal recording of the movement that acts as a model.
First, this thesis analyzes possible approaches to the problem regarding data structures and representation, ways of extracting the data from the recording and ways to compare the data sets of two recordings. Then, a specific solution is implemented in C++ and explained.
