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 ...

Application of Temporal Airy Pulses for investigating the origin of Laser Induced Periodic Surface Structures and for developing new tools in cell surgery and malignant tissue identification
(2023)
In this thesis, ultrashort Temporal Airy Pulses are used to study Laser Induced Periodic Surface Structures (LIPSS) in Part I and to enable the photoinjection of fluorescent markers into single living cells in Part II, Chapter 8. In both cases, the laser pulse excites a dielectric material (fused silica and water) and the special spatio-temporal dynamics of the interaction of a Temporal Airy Pulse with the dielectric is exploited to extend the shape of the excited region along the axis of laser propagation. For the ...

„Jetzt kommt da so ne fremde Frau.“ Eine qualitative Analyse zur Beziehungsgestaltung in der ehrenamtlichen Betreuung von Menschen mit Demenz
(2023-06)
Angesichts der steigenden Demenzprävalenz gilt die Sicherstellung einer angemessenen Versorgung von Menschen mit Demenz als besondere Herausforderung unserer Zeit. Um die häusliche Sorge zu stärken und pflegende Angehörig zu entlasten, bietet die Pflegeversicherung Betreuungsleistungen als niedrigschwellige Unterstützung an. Nach § 45a SGB XI können Ehrenamtliche diese Leistung erbringen und Menschen mit Demenz stundenweise betreuen.
Die Dissertation stellt die bislang kaum erforschte soziale Beziehung zwischen den ...

Market-driven harvesting of non-timber forest products and the governance of communal forests in the south-east lowveld of Zimbabwe.
(2023-07)
Despite forests providing a wide range of important products and services for much of Zimbabwe’s population, natural forests are threatened by deforestation. The highest rates of deforestation occur in communal forests. Communal forest resources in Zimbabwe show evidence of increased degradation and signs of a breakdown of local institutions for resources management. These signs of a breakdown of local institutions are coupled with evidence of a lack of any emerging alternative institutions for conservation of forest ...

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. ...

Control of Open Quantum Systems: Examples & Methods for Non-Markovian Dynamics
(2023)
Usually open quantum systems are considered to be under the influence of noise and therefore faulty. On the other hand, a controlled system is regarded as something stable and predictable. It is often neglected, that the two aspects are very closely related. A perfectly isolated quantum system will not be subject to environmental influences, but this makes it also impossible to interact with it in any manner. Controlling and measuring such a system is impossible and therefore of no technical relevance. Every system ...

Numerical simulation of a sub-wavelength plasmonic THz antenna for bio-sensing applications
(2023)
In the past decades, bio-sensing has become a steadily growing field in the life-sciences. Popular subjects of investigation are proteins, which for instance mediate intra-cellular transfer of substances and thus are attractive drug targets. They are also responsible for the occurence of degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and the Creutzfeld-Jakob disease. Examining proteins to uncover their fundamental properties and behavior is important in order to advance modern health care and medicine. One way to ...

Biochemical Characterization of Microtubule-Associated Serine/Threonine Kinases
(2023)
The association of human microtubule-associated serine/threonine (MAST) kinases with different diseases, such as neurodevelopmental disorders and cancer, leads to hight interest in understanding the function of these understudied kinases. This PhD thesis provides the first consolidated biochemical analysis of three different human MAST kinases (MAST1-3) and the Drosophila melanogaster homologue drop out protein (DOP).

Modeling analysis of 21st century climate change projections and their impacts on the hydrology of the Karaj-Jajrood basin, Iran
(2023-12)
Two main rivers, Karaj and Jajrood which provide metropolitan Tehrans’ water, flow in Alborz and Tehran province, respectively. In the last decades, the impact of climate change on temperature and precipitation is tangible in these two provinces. For the Karaj-Jajrood basin, during the period 2003-2012, the minimum temperature increased by 1°C, the maximum temperature by 0.6°C and precipitation decreased by -7%, relative to the average of 1972-2012.
To assess climate change impacts in the region, the Statistical ...

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 ...
