Studies of teaching approaches often evaluate whether students have learned the concepts.

This paper presents a qualitative study that explores students’ perspectives on the relevance of learning concepts of data-driven technologies for navigating the digital world. The underlying approach of the study is data awareness, which aims to support students in understanding and reflecting on such technologies to develop agency in a data-driven world. This approach teaches students an explanatory model encompassing several concepts of the role of data in data-driven technologies. We developed an intervention and conducted retrospective interviews with students. Findings from the analysis of the interviews indicate that students can analyse and understand data-driven technologies from their everyday lives according to the central role of data. In addition, students’ answers revealed four areas of how learning about data-driven technologies becomes relevant to them.

Requirements for an architecture can be derived from this overview of the literature, which 1) supports interdisciplinary research, 2) allows reproducibility of the research, and 3) is accessible to other researchers in the field of HRI. With our architecture, we tackle these requirements by providing a Graphical User Interface which explains the robot behavior and allows introspection into the current state of the dialog. Additionally, it offers controlling possibilities to easily conduct Wizard of Oz studies. To achieve transparency, the dialog is modeled explicitly, and the robot behavior can be configured.

Therefore, the right combination of a reactive warhead with a well-suited peptidomimetic sequence is of great importance. Herein, the selectivities of well-known warheads combined with peptidomimetic sequences suited for five different proteases were investigated, highlighting the impact of both structure parts (warhead and peptidomimetic sequence) for affinity and selectivity.

For each job, processing times both on the server and in the cloud are given. Furthermore, for each edge in the task graph, a communication delay is included in the input and has to be taken into account if one of the two jobs is scheduled on the server and the other in the cloud. The server processes jobs sequentially, whereas the cloud can serve as many as needed in parallel, but induces costs. We consider both makespan and cost minimization.

Recent research points to the potential beneficial effects of a speaker’s hesitations on the listeners’ comprehension of utterances, although results from studies on this issue indicate that humans do not make strategic use of them. The role of hesitations and their communicative function in human-human interaction is a much-discussed topic in current research. To better understand the underlying cognitive processes, we developed a human–robot interaction (HRI) setup that allows the measurement of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals of a human participant while interacting with a robot. We thereby address the research question of whether we find effects on single-trial EEG based on the distraction and the corresponding robot’s hesitation scaffolding strategy. To carry out the experiments, we leverage our LabLinking method, which enables interdisciplinary joint research between remote labs. This study could not have been conducted without LabLinking, as the two involved labs needed to combine their individual expertise and equipment to achieve the goal together. The results of our study indicate that the EEG correlates in the distracted condition are different from the baseline condition without distractions. Furthermore, we could differentiate the EEG correlates of distraction with and without a hesitation scaffolding strategy. This proof-of-concept study shows that LabLinking makes it possible to conduct collaborative HRI studies in remote laboratories and lays the first foundation for more in-depth research into robotic scaffolding strategies.}}, author = {{Richter, Birte and Putze, Felix and Ivucic, Gabriel and Brandt, Mara and Schütze, Christian and Reisenhofer, Rafael and Wrede, Britta and Schultz, Tanja}}, issn = {{2414-4088}}, journal = {{Multimodal Technologies and Interaction}}, keywords = {{Computer Networks and Communications, Computer Science Applications, Human-Computer Interaction, Neuroscience (miscellaneous)}}, number = {{4}}, publisher = {{MDPI AG}}, title = {{{EEG Correlates of Distractions and Hesitations in Human–Robot Interaction: A LabLinking Pilot Study}}}, doi = {{10.3390/mti7040037}}, volume = {{7}}, year = {{2023}}, } @article{47551, author = {{Hochhaus, Thorben and Bruns, Bastian and Grünewald, Marcus and Riese, Julia}}, issn = {{0098-1354}}, journal = {{Computers & Chemical Engineering}}, keywords = {{Computer Science Applications, General Chemical Engineering}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{Optimal scheduling of a large-scale power-to-ammonia process: Effects of parameter optimization on the indirect demand response potential}}}, doi = {{10.1016/j.compchemeng.2023.108132}}, volume = {{170}}, year = {{2023}}, } @article{53261, author = {{Soleymani, Mohammad and Santamaria, Ignacio and Jorswieck, Eduard and Clerckx, Bruno}}, issn = {{1536-1276}}, journal = {{IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications}}, keywords = {{Applied Mathematics, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Computer Science Applications}}, pages = {{1--1}}, publisher = {{Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)}}, title = {{{Optimization of Rate-Splitting Multiple Access in Beyond Diagonal RIS-assisted URLLC Systems}}}, doi = {{10.1109/twc.2023.3324190}}, year = {{2023}}, } @article{53301, author = {{Vieluf, Solveig and Hasija, Tanuj and Kuschel, Maurice and Reinsberger, Claus and Loddenkemper, Tobias}}, issn = {{0957-4174}}, journal = {{Expert Systems with Applications}}, keywords = {{Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science Applications, General Engineering}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{Developing a deep canonical correlation-based technique for seizure prediction}}}, doi = {{10.1016/j.eswa.2023.120986}}, volume = {{234}}, year = {{2023}}, } @article{53220, author = {{Tavana, Madjid and Khalili Nasr, Arash and Ahmadabadi, Alireza Barati and Amiri, Alireza Shamekhi and Mina, Hassan}}, issn = {{2542-6605}}, journal = {{Internet of Things}}, keywords = {{Management of Technology and Innovation, Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science Applications, Hardware and Architecture, Engineering (miscellaneous), Information Systems, Computer Science (miscellaneous), Software}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{An interval multi-criteria decision-making model for evaluating blockchain-IoT technology in supply chain networks}}}, doi = {{10.1016/j.iot.2023.100786}}, volume = {{22}}, year = {{2023}}, } @article{53218, author = {{Tavana, Madjid and Soltanifar, Mehdi and Santos-Arteaga, Francisco J. and Sharafi, Hamid}}, issn = {{0957-4174}}, journal = {{Expert Systems with Applications}}, keywords = {{Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science Applications, General Engineering}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{Analytic hierarchy process and data envelopment analysis: A match made in heaven}}}, doi = {{10.1016/j.eswa.2023.119902}}, volume = {{223}}, year = {{2023}}, } @article{53356, author = {{Terhörst, Philipp and Huber, Marco and Damer, Naser and Kirchbuchner, Florian and Raja, Kiran and Kuijper, Arjan}}, issn = {{2637-6407}}, journal = {{IEEE Transactions on Biometrics, Behavior, and Identity Science}}, keywords = {{Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science Applications, Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, Instrumentation}}, number = {{2}}, pages = {{288--297}}, publisher = {{Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)}}, title = {{{Pixel-Level Face Image Quality Assessment for Explainable Face Recognition}}}, doi = {{10.1109/tbiom.2023.3263186}}, volume = {{5}}, year = {{2023}}, } @article{44857, abstract = {{Ancestral reconstruction is a classic task in comparative genomics.

The distance stands for the amount of evolution observed at the genome level, for which we determine the minimum number of rearrangement operations necessary to transform one genome into the other. For almost all rearrangement operations the median problem is NP-hard, with the exception of the breakpoint median that can be constructed efficiently for multichromosomal circular and mixed genomes. In this work, we study the median problem under a restricted rearrangement measure called c4-distance, which is closely related to the breakpoint and the DCJ distance. We identify tight bounds and decomposers of the c4-median and develop algorithms for its construction, one exact ILP-based and three combinatorial heuristics. Subsequently, we perform experiments on simulated data sets.
