Colonoscopy is the gold standard for the detection of colorectal polyps that can progress into cancer. In such an examination, physicians search for polyps in endoscopic images. Thereby polyps can be removed. To support experts with a computer-aided diagnosis system, the University of Koblenz-Landau currently makes some efforts in research different methods for automatic detection. Comparable to traditional pattern recognition systems, features are initially extracted and a classifier is trained on such data. Afterwards, unknown endoscopic images can be classified with the previously trained classifier. This thesis concentrates on the extension of the feature extraction module in the existing system. New detection methods are compared to existing techniques. Several features are implemented, incorporating Graylevel Co-occurrence Matrices, Local Binary Patterns and Discrte Wavelet Transform. Different modifications on those features are applied and evaaluated.
Im Rahmen dieser Bachelorarbeit wurde ein Back-Office für die elektronische Version des Europäischen Schadensberichtes erstellt. Es wurde bereits in anderen Arbeiten ein mobiler Client, welcher auf einem Windows Mobile Handy läuft, sowie ein Polizei Client erstellt. Diese greifen auf das Back-Office zu, um Daten, wie z.B. die Autodaten (Automarke, der Typ, das Baujahr und Bilder eines 3D-Modells des Autos) zu einem bestimmten Kennzeichen oder die Personendaten des jeweiligen Autobesitzers zu erhalten. Der mobile Client sendet zudem die Unfallakte an das Back-Office, damit die Daten über einen Unfall in diesem abgespeichert und weiter bearbeitet werden können. Ziel der Arbeit war es ein erweiterbares, modulares System zu entwickeln, welches später um weitere Module ergänzt werden kann, um neue Funktionen bereitstellen zu können. Diese Module können jeweils beliebige Daten in einer Datenbank abspeichern und diese von der Datenbank auch wieder abfragen, sowie verändern, ohne dass das relationale Schema der Datenbank verändert werden muss.
Texture-based text detection in digital images using wavelet features and support vector machines
(2010)
In this bachelor thesis a new texture-based approach for the detection of text in digital images is presented. The procedure can be essentially divided into two main tasks, in detection of text blocks and detection of individual words, whereby the individual words are extracted from the detected text blocks. Roughly, the developed method acts with multiple support vector machines, which classify possible text regions of an image into real text regions, using wavelet-based features. In the process the possible text regions are defifined by edge projections with diσerent orientations. The results of the approach are X/Y coordinates, width and height of rectangular regions of an image, which contains individual words. This knowledge can be further processed, for example by an optical character recognition software to get the important and useful text information.
In this study, the author evaluates four visualization methods (FlexViz, the Jambalaya applet, Experimental jOWL TouchGraph, and Plone ontology) from the pool of currently available web based visualization methods.
Further, this study attempts to answer of the following research questions: 1. What are the requirements for ontology visualization? 2. How is comparative analysis and evaluation carried out? 3. How can a chosen method be tested? Based on the results of the evaluation, the visualization method FlexViz was found to be the most suitable for the given scenario. The deployment of FlexViz was carried out and integrated within Plone CMS and logical parts of the VCD ontology are tested. Finally, FlexViz was analyzed from different stakeholder- perspectives. Results showed that FleViz is a reliable tool for visualizing, understanding and analyzing a developed ontology because of its user-friendly and interactive interface, but performs poorly in regards to the editing, extension and development process.
This bachelor thesis deals with the comparison related to the similarity of recorded WiFi patterns during the tracing of a path through the streets of a large city. Both MAC address only comparison has been investigated as well as the incorporation of RSSI values, whereby the localization accuracy has been evaluated. Methods for the detection of different types and combinations of loops in the path are demonstrated likewise the attempt to estimate the degree of urban development in the environment of the user by assessing the received signal strength and signal-to-noise ratio of GPS satellites and GSM cell towers.
In order to observe a user- proximity to a certain spot on a large public square the absorption of WiFi signals by the human body has been taken into account. Finally, the results of a comparison of the computing performance of a modern smartphone versus the alternative of remote calculation on a server including data transmission via cellular data network are presented.
API migration refers to the change of a used API to a different API in a program. A special case is called wrapper-based API migration. The API change is done without touching the program but the old API is reimplemented by means of the from now on used one. This so called wrapper has the interface of the reimplemented API but uses the implementation of the new one.
This is an interesting approach because the wrapper can be used in each program, which uses the old API.
To make this approach reproducible we study a ranking-based method for implementing a wrapper, where we always implement the method with the highest priority depending on failing test cases. Thus, we can reconstruct each implementation step.
We first develop an infrastructure to run and log test suites of Java projects that use an API, which we want to change.
We then build a wrapper for a given API using the ranking-based approach.
In this thesis we exercise a wide variety of libraries, frameworks and other technologies that are available for the Haskell programming language. We show various applications of Haskell in real-world scenarios and contribute implementations and taxonomy entities to the 101companies system. That is, we cover a broad range of the 101companies feature model and define related terms and technologies. The implementations illustrate how different language concepts of Haskell, such as a very strong typing system, polymorphism, higher-order functions and monads, can be effectively used in the development of information systems. In this context we demonstrate both advantages and limitations of different Haskell technologies.
Procedural content generation, the generation of video game content using pseudo-random algorithms, is a field of increasing business and academic interest due to its suitability for reducing development time and cost as well as the possibility of creating interesting, unique game spaces. Although many contemporary games feature procedurally generated content, the author perceived a lack of games using this approach to create realistic outer-space game environments, and the feasibility of employing procedural content generations in such a game was examined. Using current scientific models, a real-time astronomical simulation was developed in Python which generates star and planets object in a fictional galaxy procedurally to serve as the game space of a simple 2D space exploration game where the player has to search for intelligent life.
Regarding the rapidly growing amount of data produced every year and the increasing acceptance of Enterprise 2.0 enterprises have to care about the management of their data more and more. Content created and stored in an uncoordinated manner can lead to data-silos (Williams & Hardy 2011, p.57), which result in long search times, inaccessible data and in consequence monetary losses. The "expanding digital universe" forces enterprises to develop new archiving solutions and records management policies (Gantz et al. 2007, p.13). Enterprise Content Management (ECM) is the research field that deals with these challenges. It is placed in the scientific context of Enterprise Information Management. This thesis aims to find out to what extent current Enterprise Content Management Systems (ECMS) support these new requirements, especially concerning the archiving of Enterprise 2.0 data. For this purpose, three scenarios were created to evaluate two different kinds of ECMS (one Open Source - and one proprietary system) chosen on the basis of a short marketrnresearch. The application of the scenarios reveals that the system vendors actually face the industry- concerns: both tools provide functionality for the archiving of data arising from online collaboration and also business records management capabilities but the integration of those topics is not, or is only inconsistently solved. At this point new questions - such as, "Which datarngenerated in an Enterprise 2.0 is worth being a record?" - arise and should be examined in future research.
The goal of this Bachelor thesis is to implement and evaluate the "Simulating of Collective Misbelief"-model into the NetLogo programming language. Therefore, the model requirements have to be specified and implemented into the NetLogo environment. Further tool-related re-quirements have to be specified to enable the model to work in NetLogo. After implementation several simulations will be conducted to answer the research question stated above.
