  abstract     = {{This paper deals with the development and results of a prediction framework for traffic light control systems as well as the usage and benefits of such predictions in green light optimal speed advisory (GLOSA) scenarios.
Various machine learning methods like support vector machines, neural networks or reinforcement learning were evaluated for their applicability in the prediction context and compared based on their efficiency and most importantly accuracy. The resulting prediction framework uses decision tree ensemble models combined with certain model knowledge to forecast different control strategies. This method was chosen due to its best performance in various test scenarios. Very high accuracy and fidelity were achieved for standard control methods like fixed-time, time-of-day-based and 'ordinary' traffic-based programs. Only for the more sophisticated model predictive control which was tested lower accuracies were achieved.
For the upcoming GLOSA application the penetration of equipped vehicles was varied for different traffic scenarios and control strategies. Results showcase high potentials for enhancing urban mobility and reducing environmental impact by lower emissions and waiting times. However, it is also clear from the studies presented in this contribution that the coordination of the control strategy with the GLOSA vehicles is of enormous importance.}},

  abstract     = {{The Banzhaf power index can be used to quantify the explanatory power of single conditions in a configurational analysis that aims at identifying whether combinations of conditions are sufficient for an outcome. The latter method is an integral part of the Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) approach. It is widely used in the literature, e.g., in the field of International Management. Haake and Schneider (2023) give a rigorous description of the connection between the empirical and game theoretic modeling. To justify that the Banzhaf index is an appropriate tool to measure the influence of a condition, this paper discusses a novel axiomatization of the Banzhaf index that uses axioms that are directly linked to the QCA methodology. As a side result, we demonstrate that in our model the Banzhaf index can be reinterpreted as an average of Shapley-Shubik indices.}},

  abstract     = {{In this contribution, we address the estimation of the frequency-dependent elastic parameters of polymers in the ultrasound range, which is formulated as an inverse problem. This inverse problem is implemented as a nonlinear regression-type optimization problem, in which the simulation signals are fitted to the measurement signals. These signals consist of displacement responses in waveguides, focusing on hollow cylindrical geometries to enhance the simulation efficiency. To accelerate the optimization and reduce the number of model evaluations and wait times, we propose two novel methods. First, we introduce an adaptation of the Levenberg–Marquardt method derived from a geometrical interpretation of the least-squares optimization problem. Second, we introduce an improved objective function based on the autocorrelated envelopes of the measurement and simulation signals. Given that this study primarily relies on simulation data to quantify optimization convergence, we aggregate the expected ranges of realistic material parameters and derive their distributions to ensure the reproducibility of optimizations with proper measurements. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our objective function modification and step adaptation for various materials with isotropic material symmetry by comparing them with the Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno method. In all cases, our method reduces the total number of model evaluations, thereby shortening the time to identify the material parameters.}},

  abstract     = {{This study investigates the determinants of tax complexity in Indonesia, focusing on the perspectives of tax officers and firms, and thus provides a case study relevant to developing countries. Understanding tax complexity in this context is crucial as developing nations frequently encounter legislative, fiscal, and administrative challenges that exacerbate their tax complexity. Complexity can hinder investment, impair tax revenue collection, and impede economic development. The authors adapt a global survey instrument to the Indonesian context and collect responses from Indonesian tax officers and firms. Transfer pricing is perceived as the most complex tax regulation which is consistent with cross-country studies. However, in contrast to the global findings, statutory tax rates and taxes on dividends rank second and third in Indonesia. While Indonesian tax officers emphasize the complexity of transfer pricing regulations, firms are more concerned about the complexity of tax procedures, especially tax guidance and tax audits. Furthermore, comparative analyses show that tax officers perceive tax regulations as being more complex than tax procedures. In contrast, firms perceive the opposite, particularly for tax audits. The findings offer a nuanced picture of tax complexity in a developing country and provide guidance for tax reforms in Indonesia. They also serve as a commencement for further analyses of developing countries.}},

In the field of symbolic projection, research is increasingly focusing on implementing light modulation using energy-efficient, incoherent LEDs rather than lasers. Since light modulation in micro- and nano-optics is typically achieved through phase modulation, Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) simulations are employed for analysis. The objective of this article is to investigate different approaches for approximating incoherent monochromatic light sources within FDTD simulations. To this end, two approaches based on dipole sources are considered, as well as a method involving plane waves with modulated wavefronts based on Cosine–Fourier functions and a method based on the superposition of Gaussian beams. These methods are evaluated in terms of their accuracy using a two-dimensional double-slit configuration and are compared against a fully incoherent analytical reference.}},

  abstract     = {{Industrial electrification is increasing to reduce fossil fuel dependence, alongside a growing share of volatile renewables.
A secure and reliable energy supply is crucial for industry, leading to a shift from centralised to decentralised grid structures.
DC microgrids becoming increasingly popular in industry, since they enable energy recuperation from braking, reduce components and cables, and integrate storage and local generation to manage supply interruptions or peak loads.
EVs add further synergies by serving as mobile storage units, helping to store and redistribute locally generated renewable energy.
This paper analyses how EV integration in droop-controlled DC grids can contribute to a more stable, low-emission and peak-reduced load profile to the supply grid through load shifting and bridge interruptions.
A droop-controlled DC grid model has been developed, incorporating an EV charging park based on probability functions.
Scalable scenarios allow for diverse condition analysis using an energy management system that utilises fuzzy logic and sequential MILP optimisation.
It has been shown that a 7% improvement of coefficient represented grid-serving behaviour is possible by load shifting.
It has also been demonstrated that an optimised EMS can reduce the demand-based CO2 emissions by 41kg for a representative day compared to a fuzzy logic EMS.
At the same time peak load is decreased yielding a more constant residual load.
These results highlight the potential of a controlled bidirectional charging infrastructure in DC grids and underscore the need to explicitly consider charging processes to ensure a residual load as constant as possible.}},

                    The relationship between leptin levels and psychiatric disorders has been studied more extensively in adults than in children and adolescents. However, the results are conflicting. We investigated serum leptin levels in children and adolescents (11 to 18.9 years) with psychiatric disorders (

Absolute and relative (body-mass-index (BMI)-, sex- and pubertal-stage-adjusted z-scores using reference values of healthy children and adolescents) leptin levels of different patient groups according to diagnosis were compared. The association between leptin levels and depression (Beck Depression Inventory-II) and anxiety (Child Behavior Checklist and Youth Self Report) was examined using regression analysis. Leptin z-scores were higher in patients with psychiatric disorders than in healthy controls (median 1.50,

While global tests suggested differences in leptin z-scores between patients with different psychiatric disorders, these differences could not be attributed to diagnosis groups in post-hoc pairwise comparisons. Absolute leptin levels differed between psychiatric disorders (

Patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) had the lowest levels, and patients with mood disorders had higher leptin levels than patients with mental disorders other than mood disorders, anxiety or AN. Neither absolute nor relative leptin levels were related to depressive or anxiety symptoms in regression models adjusted for sex and BMI. Significantly elevated BMI-, sex- and puberty-stage-adjusted leptin levels were observed in children and adolescents with psychiatric disorders compared to a reference sample. Further controlled studies are needed to confirm and explain this finding. No relationship was found between absolute or relative leptin levels and symptoms of depression or anxiety.

Post-functionalization is confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), revealing preserved 2D hexagonal p6mm ordering and phenylene stacking. N2 physisorption shows type IV isotherms with reduced pore volumes and pore sizes. 1H NMR is used to quantify functionalization degrees.
