Replikation einer Multi-Agenten-Simulationsumgebung zur Überprüfung auf Integrität und Konsistenz
(2012)
In dieser Master -Arbeit möchte ich zunächst eine Simulation vorstellen, mit der das Verhalten von Agenten untersucht wird, die in einer generierten Welt versuchen zu über leben und dazu einige Handlungsmöglichkeiten zur Auswahl haben. Anschließend werde ich kurz die theoretischen Aspekte beleuchten, welche hier zu Grunde liegen. Der Hauptteil meiner Arbeit ist meine Replikation einer Simulation, die von Andreas König im Jahr 2000 in Java angefertigt worden ist [Kö2000] . Ich werde hier seine Arbeit in stark verkürzter Form darstellen und anschließend auf meine eigene Entwicklung eingehen.
Im Schlussteil der Arbeit werde ich die Ergebnisse meiner Simulation mit denen von Andreas König vergleichen und die verwendeten Werkzeuge (Java und NetLogo) besprechen. Zum Abschluss werde ich in einem Fazit mein Vorhaben kurz zusammenfassen und berichten was sich umsetzen ließ, was nicht funktioniert hat und warum.
With the appearance of modern virtual reality (VR) headsets on the consumer market, there has been the biggest boom in the history of VR technology. Naturally, this was accompanied by an increasing focus on the problems of current VR hardware. Especially the control in VR has always been a complex topic.
One possible solution is the Leap Motion, a hand tracking device that was initially developed for desktop use, but with the last major software update it can be attached to standard VR headsets. This device allows very precise tracking of the user’s hands and fingers and their replication in the virtual world.
The aim of this work is to design virtual user interfaces that can be operated with the Leap Motion to provide a natural method of interaction between the user and the VR environment. After that, subject tests are performed to evaluate their performance and compare them to traditional VR controllers.
The purpose of this thesis is to explore the sentiment distributions of Wikipedia concepts.
We analyse the sentiment of the entire English Wikipedia corpus, which includes 5,669,867 articles and 1,906,375 talks, by using a lexicon-based method with four different lexicons.
Also, we explore the sentiment distributions from a time perspective using the sentiment scores obtained from our selected corpus. The results obtained have been compared not only between articles and talks but also among four lexicons: OL, MPQA, LIWC, and ANEW.
Our findings show that among the four lexicons, MPQA has the highest sensitivity and ANEW has the lowest sensitivity to emotional expressions. Wikipedia articles show more sentiments than talks according to OL, MPQA, and LIWC, whereas Wikipedia talks show more sentiments than articles according to ANEW. Besides, the sentiment has a trend regarding time series, and each lexicon has its own bias regarding text describing different things.
Moreover, our research provides three interactive widgets for visualising sentiment distributions for Wikipedia concepts regarding the time and geolocation attributes of concepts.
Remote rendering services offer the possibility to stream high quality images to lower powered devices. Due to the transmission of data the interactivity of applications is afflicted with a delay. A method to reduce delay of the camera manipulation on the client is called 3d-warping. This method causes artifacts. In this thesis different approaches of remote rendering setups will be shown. The artifacts and improvements of the warping method will be described. Methods to reduce the artifacts will be implemented and analyzed.
Clubs, such as Scouts, rely on the work of their volunteer members, who have a variety of tasks to accomplish. Often there are sudden changes in their organization teams and offices, whereby planning steps are lost and inexperience in planning occurs. Since the special requirements are not covered by already existing tools, ScOuT, a planning tool for the organization administration, is designed and developed in this work to support clubs with regard to the mentioned problems. The focus was on identifying and using various suitable guidelines and heuristic methods to create a usable interface. The developed product was evaluated empirically by a user survey in terms of usability.
The result of this study shows that already a high degree of the desired goal could be reached by the inclusion of the guidelines and methods. From this it can be concluded that with the help of user-specific concept ideas and the application of suitable guidelines and methods, a suitable basis for a usable application to support clubs can be created.
Mit der Microsoft Kinect waren die ersten Aufnahmen von synchronisierten Farb- und Tiefendaten (RGB-D) möglich, ohne hohe finanzielle Mittel aufwenden zu müssen und neue Möglichkeiten der Forschung eröffneten sich. Mit fortschreitender Technik sind auch mobile Endgeräte in der Lage, immer mehr zu leisten. Lenovo und Asus bieten die ersten kommerziell erwerblichen Geräte mit RGB D-Wahrnehmung an. Mit integrierten Funktionen der Lokalisierung, Umgebungserkennung und Tiefenwahrnehmung durch die Plattform Tango von Google gibt es bereits die ersten Tests in verschiedenen Bereichen des Rechnersehens z.B. Mapping. In dieser Arbeit wird betrachtet, inwiefern sich ein Tango Gerät für die Objekterkennung eignet. Aus den Ausgangsdaten des Tango Geräts werden RGB D-Daten extrahiert und für die Objekterkennung verarbeitet. Es wird ein Überblick über den aktuellen Stand der Forschung und gewisse Grundlagen bezüglich der Tango Plattform gegeben. Dabei werden existierende Ansätze und Methoden für eine Objekterkennung auf mobilen Endgeräten untersucht. Die Implementation der Erkennung wird anhand einer selbst erstellten Datenbank von RGB-D Bildern gelernt und getestet. Neben der Vorstellung der Ergebnisse werden Verbesserungen und Erweiterungen für die Erkennung vorgeschlagen.
To construct a business process model manually is a highly complex and error-prone task which takes a lot of time and deep insights into the organizational structure, its operations and business rules. To improve the output of business analysts dealing with this process, different techniques have been introduced by researchers to support them during construction with helpful recommendations. These supporting recommendation systems vary in their way of what to recommend in the first place as well as their calculations taking place under the hood to recommend the most fitting element to the user. After a broad introduction into the field of business process modeling and its basic recommendation structures, this work will take a closer look at diverse proposals and descriptions published in current literature regarding implementation strategies to effectively and efficiently assist modelers during their business process model creation. A critical analysis of presentations in the selected literature will point out strengths and weaknesses of their approaches, studies and descriptions of those. As a result, the final concept matrix in this work will give a precise and helpful overview about the key features and recommendation methods used and implemented in previous research studies to pinpoint an entry into future works without the downsides already spotted by fellow researchers.
The thesis develops and evaluates a hypothetical model of the factors that influence user acceptance of weblog technology. Previous acceptance studies are reviewed, and the various models employed are discussed. The eventual model is based on the technology acceptance model (TAM) by Davis et al. It conceptualizes and operationalizes a quantitative survey conducted by means of an online questionnaire, strictly from a user perspective. Finally, it is tested and validated by applying methods of data analysis.
The annotation of digital media is no new area of research, instead it is widely investigated. There are many innovative ideas for creating the process of annotation. The most extensive segment of related work is about semi automatic annotation. One characteristic is common in the related work: None of them put the user in focus. If you want to build an interface, which is supporting and satsfying the user, you will have to do a user evaluation first. Whithin this thesis we want to analyze, which features an interface should or should not have to meet these requirements of support, user satisfaction and beeing intuitive. After collecting many ideas and arguing with a team of experts, we determined only a few of them. Different combination of these determined variables form the interfaces, we have to investigate in our usability study. The results of the usability leads to the assumption, that autocompletion and suggestion features supports the user. Furthermore coloring tags for grouping them into categories is not disturbing to the user, but has a tendency of being supportive. Same tendencies emerge for an interface consisting of two user interface elements. There is also an example given for the definition differences of being intuitive. This thesis leads to the concolusion that for reasons of user satisfaction and support it is allowed to differ from classical annotation interface features and to implement further usability studies in the section of annotation interfaces.
