Biomechanische Untersuchungen zum Öffnungsmechanismus von verholzten Früchten der Gattung Hakea
(2023)
Die Arten H. sericea und H. salicifolia (Proteaceae) sind in Australien heimisch. Ihr natürlicher Lebensraum ist trocken und nährstoffarm, und sie sind regelmäßig Buschbränden ausgesetzt. Durch den Feuchtigkeitsverlust “schrumpft“ die Frucht und öffnet sich, wobei zwei Samen freigesetzt werden. Diese Arbeit vergleicht das Öffnungsverhalten von manipulierten Früchten, das Schwindmaß, die Öffnungskraft, den Elastizitätsmodul und die Druckfestigkeit der beiden Arten und untersucht den Einfluss verschiedener Gewebe auf die Öffnung. Es wird festgestellt, dass das Mesokarp hauptsächlich für das anisotrope Schwindverhalten verantwortlich ist.
Desert ants Cataglyphis spec. monitor inclination and distance covered through force-based sensing in their legs. To transfer this mechanism to legged robots, artificial neural networks are used to determine the inclination angle of an experimental ramp from the motor data of the legs of a commercial hexapod walking robot. It is possible to determine the inclination angle of the ramp based on the motor data of the robot legs read out during a run. The result is independent of the weight and orientation of the robot on the ramp and hence robust enough to serve as an independent odometer.
This paper presents a novel approach to build consistent 3D maps for multi robot cooperation in USAR environments. The sensor streams from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and ground robots (UGV) are fused in one consistent map. The UAV camera data are used to generate 3D point clouds that are fused with the 3D point clouds generated by a rolling 2D laser scanner at the UGV. The registration method is based on the matching of corresponding planar segments that are extracted from the point clouds. Based on the registration, an approach for a globally optimized localization is presented. Apart from the structural information of the point clouds, it is important to mention that no further information is required for the localization. Two examples show the performance of the overall registration.
In the realm of digital situational awareness during disaster situations, accurate digital representations,
like 3D models, play an indispensable role. To ensure the
safety of rescue teams, robotic platforms are often deployed
to generate these models. In this paper, we introduce an
innovative approach that synergizes the capabilities of compact Unmaned Arial Vehicles (UAVs), smaller than 30 cm, equipped with 360° cameras and the advances of Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs). A NeRF, a specialized neural network, can deduce a 3D representation of any scene using 2D images and then synthesize it from various angles upon request. This method is especially tailored for urban environments which have experienced significant destruction, where the structural integrity of buildings is compromised to the point of barring entry—commonly observed post-earthquakes and after severe fires. We have tested our approach through recent post-fire scenario, underlining the efficacy of NeRFs even in challenging outdoor environments characterized by water, snow, varying light conditions, and reflective surfaces.
This technical report is about the architecture and integration of very small commercial UAVs (< 40 cm diagonal) in indoor Search and Rescue missions. One UAV is manually controlled by only one single human operator delivering live video streams and image series for later 3D scene modelling and inspection. In order to assist the operator who has to simultaneously observe the environment and navigate through it we use multiple deep neural networks to provide guided autonomy, automatic object detection and classification and local 3D scene modelling. Our methods help to reduce the cognitive load of the operator. We describe a framework for quick integration of new methods from the field of Deep Learning, enabling for rapid evaluation in real scenarios, including the interaction of methods.
In this paper, we present a method for detecting objects of interest, including cars, humans, and fire, in aerial images captured by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) usually during vegetation fires. To achieve this, we use artificial neural networks and create a dataset for supervised learning. We accomplish the assisted labeling of the dataset through the implementation of an object detection pipeline that combines classic image processing techniques with pretrained neural networks. In addition, we develop a data augmentation pipeline to augment the dataset with utomatically labeled images. Finally, we evaluate the performance of different neural networks.
This technical report is about the mission and the experience gained during the reconnaissance of an industrial hall with hazardous substances after a major fire in Berlin. During this operation, only UAVs and cameras were used to obtain information about the site and the building. First, a geo-referenced 3D model of the building was created in order to plan the entry into the hall. Subsequently, the UAVs were used to fly in the heavily damaged interior and take pictures from inside of the hall. A 360° camera mounted under the UAV was used to collect images of the surrounding area especially from sections that were difficult to fly into. Since the collected data set contained similar images as well as blurred images, it was cleaned from non-optimal images using visual SLAM, bundle adjustment and blur detection so that a 3D model and overviews could be calculated. It was shown that the emergency services were not able to extract the necessary information from the 3D model. Therefore, an interactive panorama viewer with links to other 360° images was implemented where the links to the other images depends on the semi dense point cloud and located camera positions of the visual SLAM algorithm so that the emergency forces could view the surroundings.
This technical report is about the architecture and integration of commercial UAVs in Search and Rescue missions. We describe a framework that consists of heterogeneous UAVs, a UAV task planner, a bridge to the UAVs, an intelligent image hub, and a 3D point cloud generator. A first version of the framework was developed and tested in several training missions in the EU project TRADR.
Renewable and sustainable energy production by many small and distributed producers is revolutionizing the energy landscape as we know it. Consumers produce energy, making them to prosumers in the smart grid. The interaction between prosumers and other entities in the grid and the optimal utilization of new smart grid components (electric cars, freezers, solar panels, etc.) are crucial for the success of the smart grid. The Power Trading Agent Competition is an open simulation platform that allows researchers to conduct low risk studies in this new energy market. In this work we present Maxon16, an autonomous energy broker and champion of the 2016's Power Trading Agent Competition. We present the strategies the broker used in the final round and evaluate the effectiveness of the strategies by analyzing the tournament's results.
In diesem Artikel wird ein Alert-System für das Online-Banking vorgestellt, welches das Schutzniveau im Kontext von Social-Engineering-Angriffen sowohl clientseitig als auch serverseitig erhöhen soll. Hierfür wird durch das Alert-System ein kontinuierliches Lagebild über die aktuelle Gefahrenlage beim Online-Banking erstellt. Bei konkretem Bedarf wird der Nutzer punktuell vor aktuellen Betrugsmaschen gewarnt und zielgerichtet über Schutzvorkehrungen und Handlungsempfehlungen informiert. Für die Berechnung der aktuellen Gefahrenlage wurden unterschiedliche off-the-shelf-Algorithmen des Maschinellen Lernens verwendet und miteinander verglichen. Die Effektivität des Alert-Systems wurde anhand von echten Betrugsfällen evaluiert, die bei einer Bankengruppe in Deutschland aufgetreten sind. Zusätzlich wurde die Usability des Systems in einer Nutzerstudie mit 50 Teilnehmern untersucht. Die ersten Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die verwendeten Verfahren dazu geeignet sind, die Gefahrenlage im Online-Banking zu beurteilen und dass ein solches Alert-System auf hohe Akzeptanz bei Nutzern stößt.
In der modernen Informationsgesellschaft nehmen Online-Transaktionen einen wichtigen Teil unseres täglichen Lebens ein. In dieser Arbeit stellen wir ein nutzerzentriertes Protokoll vor, dass es Nutzern erlaubt vertrauenswürdige und sichere Transkationen durchzuführen selbst wenn sie ein nicht vertrau-enswürdiges oder mit Schadsoftware infiziertes Gerät nutzen. Das Protokoll nutzt einen CAPTCHA-artigen Ansatz, der verhindert, dass ein Angreifer eine Transaktion verändert ohne, dass Server oder Client dies bemerken. Dazu stellen wir dem Nutzer eine Aufgabe die kontextsensitive Informationen der Transaktion enthält. Die Aufgabe wird so gestellt, dass sie einfach von Menschen lösbar ist aber nur schwer automatisiert gelöst werden kann. Zur Evaluation des Systems haben wir eine Nutzerstudie (n=30) durchgeführt und berechnet mit welcher Wahrscheinlichkeit ein Angreifer erfolgreich die richtige Antwort auf die Frage erraten kann. Wir zeigen, dass ein Großteil der Transaktionen (> 94%) geschützt werden kann während das System selbst nutzbar bleibt.
Web advertisements are the primary financial source for many online services, but also for cybercriminals. Successful ad campaigns rely on good online profiles of their potential customers. The financial potentials of displaying ads have led to the rise of malware that injects or replaces ads on websites, in particular, so-called adware. This development leads to always further optimized and customized advertising. For these customization's, various tracking methods are used. However, only sparse work has gone into privacy issues emerging from adware. In this paper, we investigate the tracking capabilities and related privacy implications of adware and potentially unwanted programs (PUPs). Therefore, we developed a framework that allows us to analyze any network communication of the Firefox browser on the application level to circumvent encryption like TLS. We use this to dynamically analyze the communication streams of over 16,000 adware or potentially unwanted programs samples that tamper with the users' browser session. Our results indicate that roughly 37% of the requests issued by the analyzed samples contain private information and are accordingly able to track users. Additionally, we analyze which tracking techniques and services are used.

Purpose
Although courage has generally been understood as a powerful virtue, research to establish it as a psychological construct is in its infancy. We examined courage in organizations against the backdrop of positive psychology with a design in the Grounded Theory tradition that connects Positive Organizational Behavior and Positive Organizational Scholarship.
Method
The sample consists of organizations that define courage in their mission statement and organizations without such a definition. It includes employees and executives, exploring workplace courage on the macro as well as the micro level. Eleven organizations and 23 participants contributed to the interview study.
Results
Applying Glaser's theoretical coding, specifically the C-family, we propose that courage arises from a decisional conflict in three major domains: the self, social interaction, and performance. It is located on a continuum between apathy and foolhardiness and can take on reactive, proactive, or autonomous forms. Whether and to what extent courage manifests, is a dynamic process contingent upon organizational structure, culture, and communication climate as well as individual cognitiveaffective personality systems.
Limitations
The model depicts the complexity of the phenomenon, rather than details of its individual components. It goes beyond pre-defined categories and prevailing definitions.
Implications
Modern organizations are characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA).
Courage is crucial in such an environment and can be systematically fostered across the whole human
resource management cycle.
Value
The study advances theory building on courage in the workplace and highlights its potential to be
measured, developed and managed for more effective work performance.
A compact and efficient PEM electrolyser stack design based on hydraulic single cell compression
(2019)
Performance enhancing study for large scale PEM electrolyzer cells based on hydraulic compression
(2017)
In this experimental work we present a novel electrolyzer system for the production of hydrogen and oxygen at high pressure levels without an additional mechanical compressor. Due to its control strategies, the operation conditions for this electrolyzer can be kept optimal for each load situation of the system. Furthermore, the novel system design allows for dynamic long-term operation as well as for easy maintainability. Therefore, the device meets the requirements for prospective power-to-gas applications, especially, in order to store excess energy from renewable sources. A laboratory scale device has been developed and high-pressure operation was validated. We also studied the long-term stability of the system by applying dynamic load cycles with load changes every 30 sec. After 80 h of operation the used membrane electrode assembly (MEA) was investigated by means of SEM, EDX and XRD analysis.
Studiengänge der Medieninformatik variieren in ihren Schwerpunkten ebenso wie in den Berufsbildern, auf die sie vorbereiten. Ein vereinendes Curriculum als Basis für alle Studiengänge ist in Anbetracht der Datenlage ein großes Unterfangen. Als einen ersten Schritt in diese Richtung geht die Fachgruppe Medieninformatik in ihrem diesjährigen Workshop der Frage nach, welche Kernkompetenzen Medieninformatiker*innen im Rahmen ihres Studiums erlangen sollten. Der Beitrag stellt den aktuellen Zwischenstand der Diskussion in der Fachgruppe Medieninformatik und im Arbeitskreises Curriculum dar und soll den Weg zu einer spezifischen Empfehlung für Medieninformatik-Studiengänge vorbereiten und dokumentieren, für die MI-Community, aber auch für alle anderen, die an der Medieninformatik interessiert sind.
A Robust Interface for Head Motion based Control of a Robot Arm using MARG and Visual Sensors
(2018)
Head-controlled human machine interfaces have gained popularity over the past years, especially in the restoration of the autonomy of severely disabled people, like tetraplegics. These interfaces need to be reliable and robust regarding the environmental conditions to guarantee safety of the user and enable a direct interaction between a human and a machine. This paper presents a hybrid MARG and visual sensor system for head orientation estimation which is in this case used to teleoperate a robotic arm. The system contains a Magnetic Angular Rate Gravity (MARG)-sensor and a Tobii eye tracker 4C. A MARG sensor consists of tri-axis accelerometer, gyroscope as well as a magnetometer which enable a complete measurement of orientation relative to the direction of gravity and magnetic field of the earth. The tri-axis magnetometer is sensitive to external magnetic fields which result in incorrect orientation estimation from the sensor fusion process. In this work the Tobii eye tracker 4C is used to increase head orientation estimation because it also features head tracking even though it is commonly used for eye tracking. This type of visual sensor does not suffer magnetic drift. However, it computes orientation data only, if a user is detectable. Within this work a state machine is presented which enables data fusion of the MARG and visual sensor to improve orientation estimation. The fusion of the orientation data of MARG and visual sensors enables a robust interface, which is immune against external magnetic fields. Therefore, it increases the safety of the human machine interaction.
An automated pipeline for comprehensive calculation of intermolecular interaction energies based on molecular force-fields using the Tinker molecular modelling package is presented. Starting with non-optimized chemically intuitive monomer structures, the pipeline allows the approximation of global minimum energy monomers and dimers, configuration sampling for various monomer-monomer distances, estimation of coordination numbers by molecular dynamics simulations, and the evaluation of differential pair interaction energies. The latter are used to derive Flory-Huggins parameters and isotropic particle-particle repulsions for Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD). The computational results for force fields MM3, MMFF94, OPLSAA and AMOEBA09 are analyzed with Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations and DPD simulations for a mixture of the non-ionic polyoxyethylene alkyl ether surfactant C10E4 with water to demonstrate the usefulness of the approach.
