  text: "Continuous Speech Separation (CSS) has been proposed to address speech overlaps
    during the analysis of realistic meeting-like conversations by eliminating any
    overlaps before further processing.\r\nCSS separates a recording of arbitrarily
    many speakers into a small number of overlap-free output channels, where each
    output channel may contain speech of multiple speakers.\r\nThis is often done
    by applying a conventional separation model trained with Utterance-level Permutation
    Invariant Training (uPIT), which exclusively maps a speaker to an output channel,
    in sliding window approach called stitching.\r\nRecently, we introduced an alternative
    training scheme called Graph-PIT that teaches the separation network to directly
    produce output streams in the required format without stitching.\r\nIt can handle
    an arbitrary number of speakers as long as never more of them overlap at the same
    time than the separator has output channels.\r\nIn this contribution, we further
    investigate the Graph-PIT training scheme.\r\nWe show in extended experiments
    that models trained with Graph-PIT also work in challenging reverberant conditions.\r\nModels
    trained in this way are able to perform segment-less CSS, i.e., without stitching,
    and achieve comparable and often better separation quality than the conventional
    CSS with uPIT and stitching.\r\nWe simplify the training schedule for Graph-PIT
    with the recently proposed Source Aggregated Signal-to-Distortion Ratio (SA-SDR)
    loss.\r\nIt eliminates unfavorable properties of the previously used A-SDR loss
    and thus enables training with Graph-PIT from scratch.\r\nGraph-PIT training relaxes
    the constraints w.r.t. the allowed numbers of speakers and speaking patterns which
    allows using a larger variety of training data.\r\nFurthermore, we introduce novel
    signal-level evaluation metrics for meeting scenarios, namely the source-aggregated
    scale- and convolution-invariant Signal-to-Distortion Ratio (SA-SI-SDR and SA-CI-SDR),
    which are generalizations of the commonly used SDR-based metrics for the CSS case."

  text: "Jupyter notebooks enable developers to interleave code snippets with rich-text
    and in-line visualizations. Data scientists use Jupyter notebook as the de-facto
    standard for creating and sharing machine-learning based solutions, primarily
    written in Python. Recent studies have demonstrated, however, that a large portion
    of Jupyter notebooks available on public platforms are undocumented and lacks
    a narrative structure. This reduces the readability of these notebooks. To address
    this shortcoming, this paper presents HeaderGen, a novel tool-based approach that
    automatically annotates code cells with categorical markdown headers based on
    a taxonomy of machine-learning operations, and classifies and displays function
    calls according to this taxonomy. For this functionality to be realized, HeaderGen
    enhances an existing call graph analysis in PyCG. To improve precision, HeaderGen
    extends PyCG's analysis with support for handling external library code and flow-sensitivity.
    The former is realized by facilitating the resolution of function return-types.
    Furthermore, HeaderGen uses type information to perform pattern matching on code
    syntax to annotate code cells.\r\nThe evaluation on 15 real-world Jupyter notebooks
    from Kaggle shows that HeaderGen's underlying call graph analysis yields high
    accuracy (96.4% precision and 95.9% recall). This is because HeaderGen can resolve
    return-types of external libraries where existing type inference tools such as
    pytype (by Google), pyright (by Microsoft), and Jedi fall short. The header generation
    has a precision of 82.2% and a recall rate of 96.8% with regard to headers created
    manually by experts. In a user study, HeaderGen helps participants finish comprehension
    and navigation tasks faster. All participants clearly perceive HeaderGen as useful
    to their task."

  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: "The online fitting of a microscopic traffic simulation model to reconstruct
    the current state of a real traffic\r\narea can be challenging depending on the
    provided data. This paper presents a novel method based on limited\r\ndata from
    sensors positioned at specific locations and guarantees a general accordance of
    reality and\r\nsimulation in terms of multimodal road traffic counts and vehicle
    speeds. In these considerations, the actual\r\npurpose of research is of particular
    importance. Here, the research aims at improving the traffic flow by\r\ncontrolling
    the Traffic Light Systems (TLS) of the examined area which is why the current
    traffic state and\r\nthe route choices of individual road users are the matter
    of interest. An integer optimization problem is derived\r\nto fit the current
    simulation to the latest field measurements. The concept can be transferred to
    any road traffic\r\nnetwork and results in an observation of the current multimodal
    traffic state matching at the given sensor\r\nposition. First case studies show
    promosing results in terms of deviations between reality and simulation."

    in networks by deleting edges. Edge deletion reduces the DoS or the number of
    the malicious flows, but it also inadvertently removes some of the desired flows.
    To model this important problem, we formulate two problems: (1) remove all the
    undesirable flows while minimizing the damage to the desirable ones and (2) balance
    removing the undesirable flows and not removing too many of the desirable flows.
    We prove these problems are equivalent to important theoretical problems, thereby
    being important not only practically but also theoretically, and very hard to
    approximate in a general network. We employ reductions to nonetheless approximate
    the problem and also provide a greedy approximation. When the network is a tree,
    the problems are still MAX SNP-hard, but we provide a greedy-based 2l-approximation
    algorithm, where l is the longest desirable flow. We also provide an algorithm,
    approximating the first and the second problem within {\$}{\$}2 {\backslash}sqrt{\{}
    2{\backslash}left| E {\backslash}right| {\}}{\$}{\$}and {\$}{\$}2 {\backslash}sqrt{\{}2
    ({\backslash}left| E {\backslash}right| + {\backslash}left| {\backslash}text {\{}undesirable
    flows{\}} {\backslash}right| ){\}}{\$}{\$}, respectively, where E is the set of
    the edges of the network. We also provide a fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) algorithm.
    Finally, if the tree has a root such that every flow in the tree flows on the
    path from the root to a leaf, we solve the problem exactly using dynamic programming.'

  text: When responding to natural disasters, professional relief units are often
    supported by many volunteers which are not affiliated to humanitarian organizations.
    The effective coordination of these volunteers is crucial to leverage their capabilities
    and to avoid conflicts with professional relief units. In this paper, we empirically
    identify key requirements that professional relief units pose on this coordination.
    Based on these requirements, we suggest a decision model. We computationally solve
    a real-world instance of the model and empirically validate the computed solution
    in interviews with practitioners. Our results show that the suggested model allows
    for solving volunteer coordination tasks of realistic size near-optimally within
    short time, with the determined solution being well accepted by practitioners.
    We also describe in this article how the suggested decision support model is integrated
    in the volunteer coordination system which we develop in joint cooperation with
    a disaster management authority and a software development company.

  text: The polynomial-time hierarchy (PH) has proven to be a powerful tool for providing
    separations in computational complexity theory (modulo standard conjectures such
    as PH does not collapse). Here, we study whether two quantum generalizations of
    PH can similarly prove separations in the quantum setting. The first generalization,
    QCPH, uses classical proofs, and the second, QPH, uses quantum proofs. For the
    former, we show quantum variants of the Karp-Lipton theorem and Toda's theorem.
    For the latter, we place its third level, Q Sigma_3, into NEXP using the Ellipsoid
    Method for efficiently solving semidefinite programs. These results yield two
    implications for QMA(2), the variant of Quantum Merlin-Arthur (QMA) with two unentangled
    proofs, a complexity class whose characterization has proven difficult. First,
    if QCPH=QPH (i.e., alternating quantifiers are sufficiently powerful so as to
    make classical and quantum proofs "equivalent"), then QMA(2) is in the Counting
    Hierarchy (specifically, in P^{PP^{PP}}). Second, unless QMA(2)= Q Sigma_3 (i.e.,
    alternating quantifiers do not help in the presence of "unentanglement"), QMA(2)
    is strictly contained in NEXP.

  text: Safety-critical automotive systems must fulfill hard real-time constraints
    for reliability and safety. This paper presents a case study for the application
    of an AUTOSAR-based language for timing modeling and analysis. We present and
    apply the Timing Augmented Description Language (TADL) and demonstrate a methodology
    for the development of a speed-adaptive steer-by-wire system. We examine the impact
    of TADL and the methodology on the development process and the suitability and
    interoperability of the applied tools with respect to the AUTOSAR-based tool chain
    in the context of our case study.

  text: In this article, we present a flexible simulation environment for embedded
    real-time software refinement by a mixed level cosimulation. For this, we combine
    the native speed of an abstract real-time operating system (RTOS) model in SystemC
    with dynamic binary translation for fast Instruction Set Simulation (ISS) by QEMU.
    In order to support stepwise RTOS software refinement from system level to the
    target software, each task can be separately migrated between the native execution
    and the ISS. By adapting the dynamic binary translation approach to an efficient
    but yet very accurate synchronization scheme the overhead of QEMU user mode execution
    is only factor two compared to native SystemC. Furthermore, the simulation speed
    increases almost linearly according to the utilization of the task set abstracted
    by the native execution. Hereby, the simulation time can be considerably reduced
    by cosimulating just a subset of tasks on QEMU.

  text: Executable UML models are nowadays gaining interest in embedded systems design.
    This domain is strongly devoted to the modeling of reactive behavior using StateChart
    variants. In this context, the direct execution of UML state machines is an interesting
    alternative to native code generation approaches since it significantly increases
    portability. However, fully featured UML 2.0 State Machines may contain a broad
    set of features with complex execution semantics that differ significantly from
    other StateChart variants. This makes their direct execution complex and inefficient.
    In this paper, we demonstrate how such state machines can be represented using
    a small subset of the UML state machine features that enables efficient execution.
    We describe the necessary model transformations in terms of graph transformations
    and discuss the underlying semantics and implications for execution.

  text: The Unified Modeling Language (UML) has received wide acceptance as a standard
    language in the field of software specification by means of different diagram
    types. In a recent version of UML, the textual Object Constraint Language (OCL)
    was introduced to support specification of constraints for UML models. But OCL
    currently does not provide sufficient means to specify constraints over the dynamic
    behavior of a model. This article presents an OCL extension that is consistent
    with current OCL and enables modelers to specify state-related time-bounded constraints.
    We consider the case study of a flexible manufacturing system and identify typical
    real-time constraints. The constraints are presented in our temporal OCL extension
    as well as in temporal logic formulae. For general application, we define a semantics
    of our OCL extension by means of a time-bounded temporal logic based on Computational
    Tree Logic (CTL).

  text: This article presents SAL, a general purpose scripting language for the rapid
    development of distributed software agents seamlessly embedded in a visual environment.
    Integrated facilities for dynamic visualization provide sample but powerful means
    for debugging and domain-oriented animation. SAL agents are arranged on a set
    of 2D worksheets which can be distributed over different machines. An agent's
    program is defined by the means of a table specifying a set of state transition
    rules with a condition and a sequence of actions each. Beyond basic computation
    and communication, actions can dynamically modify the agent's depiction, its program,
    and spawn arbitrary processes. A couple of examples demonstrate SAL's applicability
    in various domains like electronic systems design and process management.

  text: This article presents the animated visual 3D programming language SAM (Solid
    Agents in Motion) for parallel systems specification and animation. A SAM program
    is a set of interacting agents synchronously exchanging messages. The agent's
    behaviour is specified by means of production rules with a condition and a sequence
    of actions each. Actions are linearly ordered and execute when matching a rule.
    In SAM, main syntactic objects like agents, rules, and messages are 3D. These
    objects can have an abstract and a concrete, solid 3D presentation. While the
    abstract representation is for programming and debugging, the concrete representation
    is for animated 3D end-user presentations. After outlining the concepts of SAM
    this article gives two programming examples of 3D micro worlds and an overview
    of the programming environment.

  text: The authors present a new approach to an interactive design and analysis environment
    for visual languages. The main components, i.e., editor animator and interpreter
    are introduced. Their interactions are being investigated emphasizing the interpreter-animator
    interaction and defining an interface supporting different levels of automation.
    The interpreter performs the executions on a logical level and triggers the animator.
    The interactive animation provides a very high degree of liveness since it is
    based on the tight integration of the animator and editor. The proposed architecture
    permits the distributed implementation of a system for real-time animation. Their
    concepts are validated by the implementation of a debugging environment for the
    complete visual programming language Pictorial Janus.
