Web Service Composition Systems for the Web Service Challenge - A Detailed Review
(2007-11-19)
This report gives a detailed discussion on the system, algorithms, and techniques that we have applied in order to solve the Web Service Challenges (WSC) of the years 2006 and 2007. These international contests are focused on semantic web service composition. In each challenge of the contests, a repository of web services is given. The input and output parameters of the services in the repository are annotated with semantic concepts. A query to a semantic composition engine contains a set of available input concepts ...

Design, implementation and application of a generic framework for integrated regional land-use modeling
(2008-02-19)
Land use is a crucial link between human activities and the natural environment and one of the main driving forces of global environmental change. Large parts of the terrestrial land surface are used for agriculture, forestry, settlements and infrastructure. Given the importance of land use, it is essential to understand the multitude of influential factors and resulting land use patterns. An essential methodology to study and quantify such interactions is provided by the adoption of land-use models. By the application ...

Explaining and Visualizing Structural Knowledge in Bipartite Graphs
(2023)
Bipartite graphs are an important model for the representation and analysis of relationships between two different types of entities. Datasets in this form are commonly found in many fields, such as social networks, biology, and economics. Formal concept analysis is a research approach that allows for the analysis of such bipartite graphs by clustering the data into so-called concepts and ordering those in a lattice structure.
In this thesis we propose multiple approaches for the extraction and visualization of ...

Learning planning communication in cooperative multi-agent settings
(2023)
This work is a holistic investigation of the question of how and why reinforcement learning (RL) agents fail to develop planning communication in a cooperative setting. It is also a guide to anyone trying to build a system that learns to use planning communication patterns. We examine the state of the art in multi-agent systems and emergent communication for the existence of communication patterns that share information about future actions and plans. To do this, we strategically formulate hypotheses that question ...

Attribute Exploration with Multiple Experts
(2023)
Attribute exploration is a knowledge acquisition method from the realm of formal concept analysis that allows a domain expert to efficiently uncover the dependencies in a domain. It is based on a question-answering scheme where the exploration algorithm generates questions about dependencies in the domain that are then answered by a domain expert. Even though many variants and extension to this were developed, only few attempts to incorporate multiple experts were made. The overarching goal of this thesis is to extend ...

Situative Teams in Cooperative Autonomous Systems
(2023)
Distributed systems have been established in many areas of IT and will play an even more significant role in the future. Such systems are no longer limited to specific fields of application but interconnect many different domains. They encompass, e. g. Cloud Computing, Internet of Things, service robotics, and autonomous vehicles. The integrated sub-systems communicate in order to exchange information and, if necessary, perform tasks together. Moreover, the number of interconnected sub-systems is constantly growing. ...

Context Awareness for Smartphone-Based Cooperative VRU Collision Avoidance
(2024)
Nach Angaben der Weltgesundheitsorganisation sterben weltweit noch immer jährlich rund 1,35 Millionen Menschen bei Verkehrsunfällen. Ungefähr 54% dieser Todesfälle ereignen sich unter ungeschützten Verkehrsteilnehmern wie Fußgängern, Radfahrern und Motorradfahrern. Fußgänger und Radfahrer machen dabei zusammen rund 26% aller Verkehrstoten aus. Im Gegensatz zu fahrzeugbasierten Kollisionsvermeidungssystemen setzen kooperative Systeme die Verwendung von mobilen Geräten wie Smartphones zur kontinuierlichen Erfassung von ...

Continuous Feature Networks: A Novel Method to Process Irregularly and Inconsistently Sampled Data With Position-Dependent Features
(2023-12-30)
Continuous Kernels have been a recent development in convolutional neural networks. Such kernels are used to process data sampled at different resolutions as well as irregularly and inconsistently sampled data. Convolutional neural networks have the property of translational invariance (e.g., features are detected regardless of their position in the measurement domain), which is unsuitable if the position of detected features is relevant for the prediction task. However, the capabilities of continuous kernels to ...

Effektive Integration von heterogenen Produktkatalogen im schnelllebigen Umfeld des E-Commerce
(2023)
Online-Marktplätze generieren von Jahr zu Jahr einen größeren Anteil des Einzelhandelsumsatzes. Ein wichtiger Faktor für den Erfolg von Online-Marktplätzen ist die korrekte Darstellung der Produktdaten für ihre Kunden. Diese Daten werden häufig von Zulieferern in Form von Produktkatalogen zur Verfügung gestellt, die in den Online-Marktplatz integriert werden müssen. Um dies zu erreichen, sind insbesondere kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen häufig auf aufwändige manuelle Arbeitsschritte bei der Datenintegration ...
