  abstract     = {{When humans interact with artificial intelligence (AI), one desideratum is appropriate trust. Typically, appropriate trust encompasses that humans trust AI except for instances in which they either explicitly notice AI errors or are suspicious that errors could be present. So far, appropriate trust or related notions have mainly been investigated by assessing trust and reliance. In this contribution, we argue that these assessments are insufficient to measure the complex aim of appropriate trust and the related notion of healthy distrust. We introduce and test the perspective of covert visual attention as an additional indicator for appropriate trust and draw conceptual connections to the notion of healthy distrust. To test the validity of our conceptualization, we formalize visual attention using the Theory of Visual Attention and measure its properties that are potentially relevant to appropriate trust and healthy distrust in an image classification task. Based on temporal-order judgment performance, we estimate participants' attentional capacity and attentional weight toward correct and incorrect mock-up AI classifications. We observe that misclassifications reduce attentional capacity compared to correct classifications. However, our results do not indicate that this reduction is beneficial for a subsequent judgment of the classifications. The attentional weighting is not affected by the classifications' correctness but by the difficulty of categorizing the stimuli themselves. We discuss these results, their implications, and the limited potential for using visual attention as an indicator of appropriate trust and healthy distrust.}},

  abstract     = {{Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in understanding, generating, and processing human language, with growing adoption in process mining. Process mining relies on event logs that capture explicit process knowledge; however, knowledge-intensive processes (KIPs) in domains such as healthcare and product development depend on tacit knowledge, which is often absent from event logs. To bridge this gap, this study proposes a LLM-based framework for mobilizing tacit process knowledge and enriching event logs. A proof-of-concept is demonstrated using a KIP-specific LLM-driven conversational agent built on GPT-4o. The results indicate that LLMs can capture tacit process knowledge through targeted queries and systematically integrate it into event logs. This study presents a novel approach combining LLMs, knowledge management, and process mining, advancing the understanding and management of KIPs by enhancing knowledge accessibility and documentation.}},

  abstract     = {{This study investigated how action histories – unfolding sequences of actions with objects – provide a context for both attentional allocation and linguistic repair strategies. Building on theories of enactive cognition and sensorimotor contingency theory, we experimentally manipulated action sequences (action history) to create either simple or rich “situational models,” and investigated how these models interact with attention and reflect in linguistic processes during human–robot interaction. Participants (N = 30) engaged in a controlled object placement task with a humanoid robot, where the action (manner) information was either provided or omitted. The omission elicited repair behaviors in participants that were in focus of our investigation. For rich models (competing action possibilities) participants demonstrated: a) increased attentional reorientation, reflecting active engagement with the situational model b) preference for restricted repairs, targeting the specific source of trouble in action selection. Conversely, a simple situational model led to more generalized attention patterns and open repair strategies, suggesting weaker constraints on internal processing. These findings highlight how situational structures emerge externally to scaffold internal cognitive processes, with action histories serving as a crucial context for the interface between perception, action, and language. We discuss how to implement such a tight loop in the assistance of a system.}},

Yet, deep-learning-based models are only post-hoc and locally explainable. In contrast, learning Web Ontology Language (OWL) class  expressions  in  Description  Logics  (DLs)  is  ante-hoc  and  globally explainable. However, state-of-the-art learners have two well-known lim-itations:  scaling  to  large  knowledge  graphs  and  handling  missing  infor-mation.  Here,  we  present  a  decision-tree-based  learner  (tDL)  to  learn Web  Ontology  Languages  (OWLs)  class  expressions  over  large  knowl-edge graphs, while imputing missing triples. Given positive and negative example individuals, tDL  ﬁrstly constructs unique OWL expressions in .SHOIN from  concise  bounded  descriptions  of  individuals.  Each  OWL class expression is used as a feature in a binary classiﬁcation problem to represent input individuals. Thereafter, tDL  ﬁts a CART decision tree to learn Boolean decision rules distinguishing positive examples from nega-tive examples. A ﬁnal OWL expression in.SHOIN is built by traversing the  built  CART  decision  tree  from  the  root  node  to  leaf  nodes  for  each positive example. By this, tDL  can learn OWL class expressions without exploration, i.e., the number of queries to a knowledge graph is bounded by the number of input individuals. Our empirical results show that tDL outperforms  the  current state-of-the-art  models  across datasets. Impor-tantly, our experiments over a large knowledge graph (DBpedia with 1.1 billion triples) show that tDL  can eﬀectively learn accurate OWL class expressions,  while  the  state-of-the-art  models  fail  to  return  any  results. Finally,  expressions  learned  by  tDL  can  be  seamlessly  translated  into natural language explanations using a pre-trained large language model and a DL verbalizer.}},

The goal is to reconfigure a set of tiles into a specific shape termed an icicle. The icicle, identified as a dense, hole-free structure, is strategically chosen to function as an intermediate shape for more intricate shape formation tasks. It is designed for easy exploration by a finite state agent, enabling the identification of tiles that can be lifted without breaking connectivity. Compared to the line shape, the icicle presents distinct advantages, including a reduced diameter and the presence of multiple removable tiles. We propose an algorithm that transforms an arbitrary initially connected tile structure into an icicle in 𝒪(n³) steps, matching the runtime of the line formation algorithm from prior work. Our theoretical contribution is accompanied by an extensive experimental analysis, indicating that our algorithm decreases the diameter of tile structures on average.}},

The phenomenon of coupling between task and the partner model becomes especially interesting in the context of Human– Robot Interaction where humans have to deal with unknown ca- pabilities of the robot, which can momentarily be perceived when the robot is unable to contribute to the task. Following research on the path over manner prominence in an action [31–33], a robot ex- plained actions to a human by emphasizing two aspects – the path ("where" component) and the manner ("how" component). On criti- cal trials, the robot occasionally omitted one of these components where participants sought missing information for the path or the manner. Participants’ information-seeking and gaze behaviour were analysed. Analysis confirms the initial predictions for, a) task model (path over manner prominence), i.e., earlier information-seeking for path-missing than manner-missing trials, and b) partner model, i.e., while information-seeking is predominantly tied to the attention on the robot’s face, when robot fails to provide resolution, attention shifts more often towards its torso – a behavior likely to indicate an exploration of the robot’s capabilities. An individual-level anal- ysis further confirms that the intra-individual variation in the task model is partly influenced by the perceived capability of the robot.}},

  abstract     = {{In this study, we evaluate the impact of gender-biased data from German-language physician reviews on the fairness of fine-tuned language models. For two different downstream tasks, we use data reported to be gender biased and aggregate it with annotations. First, we propose a new approach to aspect-based sentiment analysis that allows identifying, extracting, and classifying implicit and explicit aspect phrases and their polarity within a single model. The second task we present is grade prediction, where we predict the overall grade of a review on the basis of the review text. For both tasks, we train numerous transformer models and evaluate their performance. The aggregation of sensitive attributes, such as a physician’s gender and migration background, with individual text reviews allows us to measure the performance of the models with respect to these sensitive groups. These group-wise performance measures act as extrinsic bias measures for our downstream tasks. In addition, we translate several gender-specific templates of the intrinsic bias metrics into the German language and evaluate our fine-tuned models. Based on this set of tasks, fine-tuned models, and intrinsic and extrinsic bias measures, we perform correlation analyses between intrinsic and extrinsic bias measures. In terms of sensitive groups and effect sizes, our bias measure results show different directions. Furthermore, correlations between measures of intrinsic and extrinsic bias can be observed in different directions. This leads us to conclude that gender-biased data does not inherently lead to biased models. Other variables, such as template dependency for intrinsic measures and label distribution in the data, must be taken into account as they strongly influence the metric results. Therefore, we suggest that metrics and templates should be chosen according to the given task and the biases to be assessed. }},

Zunächst wurden Experimente auf Untergründen mit hoher Steifigkeit durchgeführt, um Störgrößen von Untergrundeigenschaften zu verringern. Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse erlaubten die Entwicklung eines Simulationsmodells für die Vorhersage der Bondqualität. Dieses basiert auf einer flächenaufgelösten Reibarbeitsbestimmung im Fügebereich unter Berücksichtigung des Ultraschallerweichungseffektes und der hierdurch entstehenden hohen Drahtverformung.

Experimente an den Anschlusssteckern im Modulrahmen zeigten eine verringerte Relativverschiebung zwischen Draht und Stecker, was zu einer deutlichen Verringerung der Reibarbeit führt. Außerdem wurden verminderte Schwingamplituden des Bondwerkzeugs nachgewiesen. Dies führt zu einer weiteren Reduktion der Reibarbeit. Beide Effekte wurden mithilfe eines Mehrmassenschwingers modelliert.

To overcome this shortcoming, a model-based approach based on physics is developed for piezoelectric bending actuators. Such a model enables a transparent representation of the system. Moreover, the model-based approach is extended by a parameter-estimation to account for sudden changes in behavior e. g. caused by occurring cracks.}},

  abstract     = {{The global megatrends of digitization and sustainability lead to new challenges for the design and management of technical products in industrial companies. Product management - as the bridge between market and company - has the task to absorb and combine the manifold requirements and make the right product-related decisions. In the process, product management is confronted with heterogeneous information, rapidly changing portfolio components, as well as increasing product, and organizational complexity. Combining and utilizing data from different sources, e.g., product usage data and social media data leads to promising potentials to improve the quality of product-related decisions. In this paper, we reinforce the need for data-driven product management as an interdisciplinary field of action. The state of data-driven product management in practice was analyzed by conducting workshops with six manufacturing companies and hosting a focus group meeting with experts from different industries. We investigate the expectations and derive requirements leading us to open research questions, a vision for data-driven product management, and a research agenda to shape future research efforts.}},
