Pedestrian Detection in digital images is a task of huge importance for the development of automaticsystems and in improving the interaction of computer systems with their environment. The challenges such a system has to overcome are the high variance of the pedestrians to be recognized and the unstructured environment. For this thesis, a complete system for pedestrian detection was implemented according to a state of the art technique. A novel insight about precomputing the Color Self-Similarity accelerates the computations by a factor of four. The complete detection system is described and evaluated, and was published under an open source license.
Das Vertrauen von jungen Erwachsenen in politische Beiträge aus Rundfunk, Print- und Digitalmedien
(2013)
Die Kernfrage dieser Bachelorarbeit ist, ob das Vertrauen in Medien auf die politische Einstellung wirkt und ob Mediennutzung auf diese Wirkungsrichtung Einfluss nimmt. Hierbei werden sowohl Mediengattungen als auch einzelne Medienformate differenziert betrachtet. Die politische Einstellung wird anhand der Einstellungsdimensionen Effektivität der Regierung, Legitimität der Regierung, Einflussüberzeugung, Responsivität der politischen Akteure und Integrität der politischen Akteure operationalisiert. Hierbei wird der Fokus auf junge Erwachsene gelegt, welchen verbreitet Politikverdrossenheit nachgesagt wird.
Zur Prüfung des Zusammenhangs zwischen Medienvertrauen und der politischen Einstellung wird eine quantitative Online-Befragung der Studenten/ Studentinnen der Universität Koblenz (N = 496) durchgeführt. Zur Datenauswertung werden Regressionsanalysen sowie die ANOVA angewandt. Die Ergebnisse weisen nicht auf eine allgemeine negative politische Grundhaltung junger Erwachsenen hin. Zudem indizieren die Resultate, dass das Vertrauen in Medien einen signifikanten Effekt auf die politische Einstellung hat (p ≤ .05). Mediennutzung hat hingegen unzureichende Erklärungskraft. Auch in zukünftigen Studien würde es sich anbieten, das Medienvertrauen als zentrale unabhängige Variable zu untersuchen, wobei ein Generationenvergleich unterschiedlicher Bildungsschichten empfehlenswert wäre.
In this thesis, a first prototype of a mobile instruction device with mixed reality (MR) funktionality is developed. This system shall be capable to support training on the job through interaction with the work item. The concept corresponds to a didactic approach presented by Martens-Parree that combines constructivism with situated learning. As an application example, the training of glider pilots checked out on a new type was chosen. Whether the MR device could increase the competence, or facilitiate the completion of certain tasks, was examined in a survey with fifteen testers. The results of the study show that in general, the didactic approach of Martens-Parree is valid. While an increase in fact knowledge has been observed, it was not (yet) possible to demonstrate an increase in skills with respect to the work tasks.
This study investigates crowdfunding, a new form of financing projects. In the past years more and more crowdfunding platforms emerged. The main question is if crowdfunding is able to compete with the traditional types of financing social projects. The history and development of crowdfunding is presented in this paper. The different crowdfunding models are explained. An overview of German crowd funding platforms is presented. Based on successful social crowdfunding projects a list of key success factors is listed and described. In a case study a concept for financing a social project through crowdfunding is developed upon the previous studies.
In a software reengineering task legacy systems are adapted computer-aided to new requirements. For this an efficient representation of all data and information is needed. TGraphs are a suitable representation because all vertices and edges are typed and may have attributes. Further more there exists a global sequence of all graph elements and for each vertex exists a sequence of all incidences. In this thesis the "Extractor Description Language" (EDL) was developed. It can be used to generate an extractor out of a syntax description, which is extended by semantic actions. The generated extractor can be used to create a TGraph representation of the input data. In contrast to classical parser generators EDL support ambiguous grammars, modularization, symbol table stacks and island grammars. These features simplify the creation of the syntax description. The collected requirements for EDL are used to determine an existing parser generator which is suitable to realize the requirements.
After that the syntax and semantics of EDL are described and implemented using the suitable parser generator. Following two extractors one for XML and one for Java are created with help of EDL. Finally the time they need to process some input data is measured.
This thesis deals with problems, which occure when rendering stereoscopic contents. These problems are elaborated, simulated with the help of a program developed in this thesis and evaluated by a group of volunteers. Thereby it shall be determined, whether the errors are noticeable and how much they influence the 3D effect of the stereoscopic images. Each error is simulated using different camera assemblies and evaluated depending on the choosen assembly.
E-KRHyper is a versatile theorem prover and model generator for firstorder logic that natively supports equality. Inequality of constants, however, has to be given by explicitly adding facts. As the amount of these facts grows quadratically in the number of these distinct constants, the knowledge base is blown up. This makes it harder for a human reader to focus on the actual problem, and impairs the reasoning process. We extend E-Hyper- underlying E-KRhyper tableau calculus to avoid this blow-up by implementing a native handling for inequality of constants. This is done by introducing the unique name assumption for a subset of the constants (the so called distinct object identifiers). The obtained calculus is shown to be sound and complete and is implemented into the E-KRHyper system. Synthetic benchmarks, situated in the theory of arrays, are used to back up the benefits of the new calculus.
This work deals with the migration of software systems towards the use of the character set defined in the Unicode standard. The work is performed as a case study on the document-management-system PROXESS. A conversion process will be designed that defines the working-steps of the migration for the entire system as well as an arbitrary decomposition of the system into individual modules. The working-steps for each module can be performed chronologically independent of each other to a great extend. For the conversion of the implementation, an approach of automatic recognition of usage patterns is applied. The approach aims at searching the abstract syntax tree for sequences of program instructions that can be assigned to a certain usage pattern. The usage pattern defines another sequence of instructions that acts as an sample solution for that usage pattern. The sample solution demonstrates the Unicode-based management of strings for that usage pattern. By applying a transformation rule, the original sequence of instructions is transferred to the sequence of instructions exposed by the sample solution of the related usage pattern. This mechanism is a starting point for the development of tools that perform this transformation automatically.
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.
Die Bedeutung von Social Software (SSW) nimmt nicht nur im Privatleben vieler Menschen zu. Auch Unternehmen haben mittlerweile die Potentiale dieser Systeme erkannt und setzen vermehrt auf Web 2.0 Technologien basierende Systeme im Unternehmenskontext ein. So brachte eine Studie der Association for Information and Image Management (AIIM) im Jahr 2009 hervor, dass über 50 % der Befragten Enterprise 2.0 (E2.0), d.h. der Einsatz von SSW im Unternehmen, als kritischen Faktor des Unternehmenserfolges ansahen. Auch durch diesen Trend mit verursacht stieg, laut einer Studie des Beratungsunternehmens IDC, die Menge an digital verfügbaren Informationen innerhalb einer Zeitspanne von fünf Jahren (2006-2011) um den Faktor zehn. Wo früher galt, "Je mehr Information, desto besser.", bereitet heute das Managen dieser schieren Flut an Informationen vielen Unternehmen Probleme (bspw. in Bezug auf die Auffindbarkeit von Informationen). SSW bietet mit neuen Funktionen, wie Social Bookmarking, Wikis oder Tags, das Potential, Informationen durch Nutzerbeteiligung besser zu strukturieren und zu organisieren. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird am Beispiel der Forschungsgruppe für Betriebliche Anwendungssysteme (FG BAS) gezeigt, wie man vorhandene Informationsstrukturen erfassen, analysieren und darauf basierend Empfehlungen für den Einsatz von SSW herleiten kann. Den Rahmen für dieses Vorgehen bildet ein von Henczel (2000) entwickeltes Modell zur Durchführung eines Information Audits. Hervorzuhebende Ergebnisse der Arbeit stellen zum Einen das Erfassungsmodell für Informationen und Prozesse dar (Informationsmatrix) und zum Anderen das Visualisierungsmodell der erfassten Daten.
