  text: "The first order optimality conditions of optimal control problems (OCPs)
    can\r\nbe regarded as boundary value problems for Hamiltonian systems. Variational
    or\r\nsymplectic discretisation methods are classically known for their excellent\r\nlong
    term behaviour. As boundary value problems are posed on intervals of\r\nfixed,
    moderate length, it is not immediately clear whether methods can profit\r\nfrom
    structure preservation in this context. When parameters are present,\r\nsolutions
    can undergo bifurcations, for instance, two solutions can merge and\r\nannihilate
    one another as parameters are varied. We will show that generic\r\nbifurcations
    of an OCP are preserved under discretisation when the OCP is\r\neither directly
    discretised to a discrete OCP (direct method) or translated\r\ninto a Hamiltonian
    boundary value problem using first order necessary\r\nconditions of optimality
    which is then solved using a symplectic integrator\r\n(indirect method). Moreover,
    certain bifurcations break when a non-symplectic\r\nscheme is used. The general
    phenomenon is illustrated on the example of a cut\r\nlocus of an ellipsoid."

  text: We propose a reachability approach for infinite and finite horizon multi-objective
    optimization problems for low-thrust spacecraft trajectory design. The main advantage
    of the proposed method is that the Pareto front can be efficiently constructed
    from the zero level set of the solution to a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation.
    We demonstrate the proposed method by applying it to a low-thrust spacecraft trajectory
    design problem. By deriving the analytic expression for the Hamiltonian and the
    optimal control policy, we are able to efficiently compute the backward reachable
    set and reconstruct the optimal trajectories. Furthermore, we show that any reconstructed
    trajectory will be guaranteed to be weakly Pareto optimal. The proposed method
    can be used as a benchmark for future research of applying reachability analysis
    to low-thrust spacecraft trajectory design.

  text: Phase-shift modulated full bridge converters suffer from thermal imbalances
    of the inverter switches. The lagging leg switches are subject to larger commutation
    currents compared to those of the leading leg as the transformer current reduces
    in the freewheeling interval. Furthermore, after this interval, the energy in
    the series inductance may not be large enough to achieve zero-voltage switching
    (ZVS) for the leading leg. Both effects result in thermal imbalances. This paper
    analyzes the alternating-asymmetrical phase-shift modulation to achieve balanced
    conduction and switching losses for all four switches while showing that this
    modulation is easily implemented on standard DSPs. The modulation has been implemented
    to LLC converters where experimental measurement results proved its effectiveness
    for LLC converters by reducing the temperature deviation from 6.3 K to only 0.2
    K such that the peak temperature is reduced from 95 °C to 92 °C. The paper also
    proves that the modulation can be utilized to improve the efficiency of LLC converters
    operated at very low gains while simultaneously reducing the junction temperature
    of all four switches compared to the conventional complementary modulation. Finally,
    EMI implications are analyzed, which show that the modulation may be beneficial
    for reducing the common-mode emissions around the operating frequency.

  text: <jats:title>Zusammenfassung</jats:title><jats:p>Zu den ersten geometrischen
    Begriffen, die Kinder bereits im Elementar- und Primarbereich lernen, zählen u. a.
    Viereck, Rechteck und Quadrat. Studien zeigen, dass Lernende bereits früh individuelle
    Vorstellungen, sog. <jats:italic>individuelle Begriffskonzepte,</jats:italic>
    zu diesen Begriffen aufbauen. Zwar wird die Entwicklung von Begriffsverständnis
    in verschiedenen mathematikdidaktischen Stufenmodellen dargestellt, diese sind
    jedoch generisch und beschreiben nicht explizit die Entwicklung der ersten <jats:italic>individuellen
    Begriffskonzepte </jats:italic>von Lernenden zu Viereck, Rechteck und Quadrat.
    Aus empirischer Sicht liegen verschiedene Studien vor, die einzelne Aspekte der
    individuellen Begriffskonzepte von Lernenden unterschiedlicher Altersgruppen zu
    diesen Begriffen ausleuchten. Um Begriffsbildungsprozesse aus empirischer Sicht
    detaillierter entlang der jeweils vorherrschenden individuellen Begriffskonzepte
    zu beschreiben, fehlen insbesondere Studien in der Grundschule, die alle vier
    Klassenstufen betrachten und dabei differenzierte Erkenntnisse zu verschiedenen
    theoretischen Indikatoren des Begriffsverständnisses liefern. Daher geht die vorliegende
    Studie der Frage nach, welches Verständnis der Begriffe Viereck, Rechteck und
    Quadrat Schülerinnen und Schüler der Jahrgangsstufen 1, 2, 3 und 4 zeigen. Dazu
    wurde eine Quasi-Längsschnittstudie mit <jats:italic>N</jats:italic> = 456 Grundschulkindern
    (ca. 100 pro Jahrgangsstufe) durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse geben detaillierte Einblicke
    in die individuellen Begriffskonzepte der Lernenden und zeigen, dass Lernende
    zunehmend Eigenschaften der Figuren berücksichtigen, jedoch individuelle Begriffskonzepte
    über lange Zeit auch prototypisch geprägt sind. Implikationen dieser Ergebnisse
    für Forschung und Praxis werden diskutiert.</jats:p>

  text: "Automatic transcription of meetings requires handling of overlapped speech,
    which calls for continuous speech separation (CSS) systems. The uPIT criterion
    was proposed for utterance-level separation with neural networks and introduces
    the constraint that the total number of speakers must not exceed the number of
    output channels. When processing meeting-like data in a segment-wise manner, i.e.,
    by separating overlapping segments independently and stitching adjacent segments
    to continuous output streams, this constraint has to be fulfilled for any segment.
    In this contribution, we show that this constraint can be significantly relaxed.
    We propose a novel graph-based PIT criterion, which casts the assignment of utterances
    to output channels in a graph coloring problem. It only requires that the number
    of concurrently active speakers must not exceed the number of output channels.
    As a consequence, the system can process an arbitrary number of speakers and arbitrarily
    long segments and thus can handle more diverse scenarios.\r\nFurther, the stitching
    algorithm for obtaining a consistent output order in neighboring segments is of
    less importance and can even be eliminated completely, not the least reducing
    the computational effort. Experiments on meeting-style WSJ data show improvements
    in recognition performance over using the uPIT criterion. "

  text: 'In this paper we present our system for the Detection and Classification
    of Acoustic Scenes and Events (DCASE) 2021 Challenge Task 4: Sound Event Detection
    and Separation in Domestic Environments, where it scored the fourth rank. Our
    presented solution is an advancement of our system used in the previous edition
    of the task.We use a forward-backward convolutional recurrent neural network (FBCRNN)
    for tagging and pseudo labeling followed by tag-conditioned sound event detection
    (SED) models which are trained using strong pseudo labels provided by the FBCRNN.
    Our advancement over our earlier model is threefold. First, we introduce a strong
    label loss in the objective of the FBCRNN to take advantage of the strongly labeled
    synthetic data during training. Second, we perform multiple iterations of self-training
    for both the FBCRNN and tag-conditioned SED models. Third, while we used only
    tag-conditioned CNNs as our SED model in the previous edition we here explore
    sophisticated tag-conditioned SED model architectures, namely, bidirectional CRNNs
    and bidirectional convolutional transformer neural networks (CTNNs), and combine
    them. With metric and class specific tuning of median filter lengths for post-processing,
    our final SED model, consisting of 6 submodels (2 of each architecture), achieves
    on the public evaluation set poly-phonic sound event detection scores (PSDS) of
    0.455 for scenario 1 and 0.684 for scenario as well as a collar-based F1-score
    of 0.596 outperforming the baselines and our model from the previous edition by
    far. Source code is publicly available at https://github.com/fgnt/pb_sed.'

  text: Recently, there has been a rising interest in sound recognition via Acoustic
    Sensor Networks to support applications such as ambient assisted living or environmental
    habitat monitoring. With state-of-the-art sound recognition being dominated by
    deep-learning-based approaches, there is a high demand for labeled training data.
    Despite the availability of large-scale  data sets such as Google's AudioSet,
    acquiring training data matching a certain application environment is still often
    a problem. In this paper we are concerned with human activity monitoring in a
    domestic environment using an ASN consisting of multiple nodes each providing
    multichannel signals. We propose a self-training based domain adaptation approach,
    which only requires unlabeled data from the target environment. Here, a sound
    recognition system trained on AudioSet, the teacher, generates pseudo labels for
    data from the target environment on which a student network is trained. The student
    can furthermore glean information about the spatial arrangement of sensors and
    sound sources to further improve classification performance. It is shown that  the
    student significantly improves recognition performance over the pre-trained teacher
    without relying on labeled data from the environment the system is deployed in.

  text: One objective of current research in explainable intelligent systems is to
    implement social aspects in order to increase the relevance of explanations. In
    this paper, we argue that a novel conceptual framework is needed to overcome shortcomings
    of existing AI systems with little attention to processes of interaction and learning.
    Drawing from research in interaction and development, we first outline the novel
    conceptual framework that pushes the design of AI systems toward true interactivity
    with an emphasis on the role of the partner and social relevance. We propose that
    AI systems will be able to provide a meaningful and relevant explanation only
    if the process of explaining is extended to active contribution of both partners
    that brings about dynamics that is modulated by different levels of analysis.
    Accordingly, our conceptual framework comprises monitoring and scaffolding as
    key concepts and claims that the process of explaining is not only modulated by
    the interaction between explainee and explainer but is embedded into a larger
    social context in which conventionalized and routinized behaviors are established.
    We discuss our conceptual framework in relation to the established objectives
    of transparency and autonomy that are raised for the design of explainable AI
    systems currently.

  text: In practise, it is often desirable to provide the decision-maker with a rich
    set of diverse solutions of decent quality instead of just a single solution.
    In this paper we study evolutionary diversity optimization for the knapsack problem
    (KP). Our goal is to evolve a population of solutions that all have a profit of
    at least (1 - {$ϵ$}) {$\cdot$} OPT, where OPT is the value of an optimal solution.
    Furthermore, they should differ in structure with respect to an entropy-based
    diversity measure. To this end we propose a simple ({$\mu$} + 1)-EA with initial
    approximate solutions calculated by a well-known FPTAS for the KP. We investigate
    the effect of different standard mutation operators and introduce biased mutation
    and crossover which puts strong probability on flipping bits of low and/or high
    frequency within the population. An experimental study on different instances
    and settings shows that the proposed mutation operators in most cases perform
    slightly inferior in the long term, but show strong benefits if the number of
    function evaluations is severely limited.

  text: Computing sets of high quality solutions has gained increasing interest in
    recent years. In this paper, we investigate how to obtain sets of optimal solutions
    for the classical knapsack problem. We present an algorithm to count exactly the
    number of optima to a zero-one knapsack problem instance. In addition, we show
    how to efficiently sample uniformly at random from the set of all global optima.
    In our experimental study, we investigate how the number of optima develops for
    classical random benchmark instances dependent on their generator parameters.
    We find that the number of global optima can increase exponentially for practically
    relevant classes of instances with correlated weights and profits which poses
    a justification for the considered exact counting problem.

  text: In the area of evolutionary computation the calculation of diverse sets of
    high-quality solutions to a given optimization problem has gained momentum in
    recent years under the term evolutionary diversity optimization. Theoretical insights
    into the working principles of baseline evolutionary algorithms for diversity
    optimization are still rare. In this paper we study the well-known Minimum Spanning
    Tree problem (MST) in the context of diversity optimization where population diversity
    is measured by the sum of pairwise edge overlaps. Theoretical results provide
    insights into the fitness landscape of the MST diversity optimization problem
    pointing out that even for a population of {$\mu$} = 2 fitness plateaus (of constant
    length) can be reached, but nevertheless diverse sets can be calculated in polynomial
    time. We supplement our theoretical results with a series of experiments for the
    unconstrained and constraint case where all solutions need to fulfill a minimal
    quality threshold. Our results show that a simple ({$\mu$} + 1)-EA can effectively
    compute a diversified population of spanning trees of high quality.

  text: 'Most runtime analyses of randomised search heuristics focus on the expected
    number of function evaluations to find a unique global optimum. We ask a fundamental
    question: if additional search points are declared optimal, or declared as desirable
    target points, do these additional optima speed up evolutionary algorithms? More
    formally, we analyse the expected hitting time of a target set OPT {$\cup$} S
    where S is a set of non-optimal search points and OPT is the set of optima and
    compare it to the expected hitting time of OPT. We show that the answer to our
    question depends on the number and placement of search points in S. For all black-box
    algorithms and all fitness functions we show that, if additional optima are placed
    randomly, even an exponential number of optima has a negligible effect on the
    expected optimisation time. Considering Hamming balls around all global optima
    gives an easier target for some algorithms and functions and can shift the phase
    transition with respect to offspring population sizes in the (1,{$\lambda$}) EA
    on One-Max. Finally, on functions where search trajectories typically join in
    a single search point, turning one search point into an optimum drastically reduces
    the expected optimisation time.'

  text: 'Classic automated algorithm selection (AS) for (combinatorial) optimization
    problems heavily relies on so-called instance features, i.e., numerical characteristics
    of the problem at hand ideally extracted with computationally low-demanding routines.
    For the traveling salesperson problem (TSP) a plethora of features have been suggested.
    Most of these features are, if at all, only normalized imprecisely raising the
    issue of feature values being strongly affected by the instance size. Such artifacts
    may have detrimental effects on algorithm selection models. We propose a normalization
    for two feature groups which stood out in multiple AS studies on the TSP: (a)
    features based on a minimum spanning tree (MST) and (b) a k-nearest neighbor graph
    (NNG) transformation of the input instance. To this end we theoretically derive
    minimum and maximum values for properties of MSTs and k-NNGs of Euclidean graphs.
    We analyze the differences in feature space between normalized versions of these
    features and their unnormalized counterparts. Our empirical investigations on
    various TSP benchmark sets point out that the feature scaling succeeds in eliminating
    the effect of the instance size. Eventually, a proof-of-concept AS-study shows
    promising results: models trained with normalized features tend to outperform
    those trained with the respective vanilla features.'

  text: In recent years, Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) have frequently been adopted
    to evolve instances for optimization problems that pose difficulties for one algorithm
    while being rather easy for a competitor and vice versa. Typically, this is achieved
    by either minimizing or maximizing the performance difference or ratio which serves
    as the fitness function. Repeating this process is useful to gain insights into
    strengths/weaknesses of certain algorithms or to build a set of instances with
    strong performance differences as a foundation for automatic per-instance algorithm
    selection or configuration. We contribute to this branch of research by proposing
    fitness-functions to evolve instances that show large performance differences
    for more than just two algorithms simultaneously. As a proof-of-principle, we
    evolve instances of the multi-component Traveling Thief Problem (TTP) for three
    incomplete TTP-solvers. Our results point out that our strategies are promising,
    but unsurprisingly their success strongly relies on the algorithms’ performance
    complementarity.
