Textkomplexität und Textverstehen. Einführende Überlegungen zu einer interdisziplinären Modellierung
(De Gruyter, 2023-04-03)
In everyday language, complexity as a term is characterised by semantic fuzziness and usually describes phenomena that are difficult to assess. For disciplines that study the understanding of texts, it has proven useful to define text complexity as the set of dynamic interactions that arise when the linguistic and cultural levels of a text are activated in the process of understanding. These activations, which lead to semantic constructions and a mental model of the text, are complex and difficult to grasp, as they ...

Die Gestaltung gesunder und effektiver digital vermittelter Kommunikation im Kontext von Remote Leadership – eine Betrachtung unter Berücksichtigung des Aspektes der psychologisch sicheren Kommunikation
(2023)
Einhergehend mit einer fortschreitenden Globalisierung und Digitalisierung nimmt auch die Verbreitung von Remote Leadership, auf Distanz vermittelter Führungs- und Kommunikationsprozesse, seit mehreren Jahren stetig zu; im Zuge der Covid-19-Pandemie hat sich diese Entwicklung nochmals beschleunigt. Unternehmen, die angesichts eines internationalen Wettbewerbs mit einem wachsenden Innovations- und Optimierungsdruck konfrontiert sind, müssen in der modernen Arbeitswelt, wollen sie wettbewerbsfähig und erfolgreich ...

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 ...

Solar energy integration in agro-processing in the tropics: a case study of large and small-scale cassava processing
(2023)
Agro-processing is key to reducing post-harvest losses. Agro-processing is defined as a set of techno-economic activities applied to all the products originating from the agricultural farm, livestock, aqua cultural sources, and forests for their conservation, handling, and value-addi-tion to make them usable as food, feed, fibre, fuel, or industrial raw materials [12]. Processing can be sophisticated (relying on industrial plants and machinery) or simple (depending on the sun or indigenous small-scale processes). The ...

Tracing World-Class Universities in the Global Public(ity) Sphere
(2023)
Tracing World-class Universities in the Global Public(ity) Sphere The salience of reputation management has grown, both in terms of scale and prominence, in higher education management and governance, and, subsequently, higher education research in the past two decades. Reputation management is no longer a peripheral topic of interest for a few higher education researchers judging from the exponential growth in the volume of academic literature and the changing external environment in which universities communicate ...

Auswirkungen klimatischer Veränderungen auf die Überhitzung von Gebäuden und Empfehlungen zur Begrenzung sommerlicher Übertemperaturen
(2023)
Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Identifikation von Auswirkungen sommerklimatischer Veränderungen auf Gebäude infolge des Klimawandels. Einleitend werden physikalische und klimatologische Hintergründe erläutert. Darauf aufbauend sind relevante Aspekte der in Deutschland angewendeten normativen Bewertung sommerlicher Raumüberhitzungen beschrieben. Diese Aspekte formieren die Grundlage der weiterführenden Untersuchungen von Überhitzungserscheinungen im Raum.
Die Basis für diese weiterführenden Untersuchungen ...

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 ...

Economic evaluation of biological nitrogen fixation in flooded rice cultivation in subtropical lowlands
(2023-06-13)
This study aimed to assess the economic viability of biological nitrogen fixation in flood rice cultivation in subtropical lowlands. A field experiment of seven treatments was carried out during the cropping seasons 2015/16, 2017/18, 2018/19 and 2019/20 at the Lowland Experimental Station of Embrapa, in Pelotas, RS, Brazil. The evaluated treatments were: (1) negative control (without N and inoculant); (2) positive control with recommended N-fertilization (120 kg N ha-¹, without inoculant) (standard recommendation); ...

Effect of Fermentation on the bioactive compound of cocoa Beans: a systematic review and meta-analysis approach
(2023-05-30)
Several studies have found the effect of cocoa bean fermentation on bioactive compounds through various fermentation characteristics; however, none of these studies adopted the meta-analysis approach. The effect of cocoa bean fermentation on six bioactive compounds: epicatechin, catechin, total phenolic content (TPC), anthocyanins, theobromine, and caffeine were systematically reviewed. This study aims to determine which variables that can affect the loss of bioactive compounds during fermentation so that their ...

Identification of fungal pathogens causing postharvest rot of bulb onions (Allium cepa L.) in selected major growing regions of Kenya
(2023-06-27)
Rot is a major cause of bulb onion losses in Kenya, accounting for about 14 % of total postharvest losses. In Kenya, the fungi associated with bulb onion postharvest rot of onion postharvest rots are not well known. Therefore, this study aimed at identifying the fungal pathogens contributing to bulb onion postharvest rot in major growing regions of Kenya. Bulb onion samples were collected from seven major markets and isolates were obtained by cutting 3 mm tissue segments from the edges of rotten lesions. These were ...
