No full textUAVs and Neural Networks for search and rescue missions
No full textIn this paper, we present a method for detecting objects of interest, including cars, humans, and fire, in aerial images captured by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) usually during vegetation fires. To achieve this, we use artificial neural networks and create a dataset for supervised learning. We accomplish the assisted labeling of the dataset through the implementation of an object detection pipeline that combines classic image processing techniques with pretrained neural networks. In addition, we develop a data augmentation pipeline to augment the dataset with utomatically labeled images. Finally, we evaluate the performance of different neural networks
Einsatz von XR zur Belebung von Leerständen
No full textSowohl im Online-, aber auch im stationären Handel sind schon etliche innovative immersive Anwendungen entstanden, die neue kognitive und affektive Interaktions- und Informationsmöglichkeiten bieten. In den Bereichen Kunst, Immobilien, Architektur, Gaming, Fashion, Stadtplanung und -führungen finden sich ebenfalls mehr und mehr AR/VR Anwendungen. In diesem Beitrag wird nach einer Sichtung ausgewählter immersiver Projekte ein Konzept zur Nutzung von AR bzw. VR für Leerstände in einer ehemals attraktiven Einkaufsmeile in Gelsenkirchen vorgestellt
DECIMER.ai: an open platform for automated optical chemical structure identification, segmentation and recognition in scientific publications
No full textThe number of publications describing chemical structures has increased steadily over the last decades. However, the majority of published chemical information is currently not available in machine-readable form in public databases. It remains a challenge to automate the process of information extraction in a way that requires less manual intervention - especially the mining of chemical structure depictions. As an open-source platform that leverages recent advancements in deep learning, computer vision, and natural language processing, DECIMER.ai (Deep lEarning for Chemical IMagE Recognition) strives to automatically segment, classify, and translate chemical structure depictions from the printed literature. The segmentation and classification tools are the only openly available packages of their kind, and the optical chemical structure recognition (OCSR) core application yields outstanding performance on all benchmark datasets. The source code, the trained models and the datasets developed in this work have been published under permissive licences. An instance of the DECIMER web application is available at https://decimer.ai

No full textThe Many Ways to Student Activation: Lessons Learned from 25 Years of Teaching Undergraduate Programming Classes
Get PDFThis paper reveals various approaches undertaken over more than two decades of teaching undergraduate programming classes at different Higher Education Institutions, in order to improve student activation and participation in class and consequently teaching and learning effectiveness.
While new technologies and the ubiquity of smartphones and internet access has brought new tools to the classroom and opened new didactic approaches, lessons learned from this personal long-term study show that neither technology itself nor any single new and often hyped didactic approach ensured sustained improvement of student activation. Rather it needs an integrated yet open approach towards a participative learning space supported but not created by new tools, technology and innovative teaching methods
Advanced Determination of Temperature Coefficients of Photovoltaic Modules by Field Measurements
No full textAbstract
In this work data from outdoor measurements, acquired over the course of up to three years on commercially available solar panels, is used to determine the temperature coefficients and compare these to the information as stated by the producer in the data sheets. A program developed in MatLab App Designer allows to import the electrical and ambient measurement data. Filter algorithms for solar irradiance narrow the irradiance level down to ~1000 W/m2 before linear regression methods are applied to obtain the temperature coefficients. A repeatability investigation proves the accuracy of the determined temperature coefficients which are in good agreement to the supplier specification if the specified values for power are not larger than -0.3%/K. Further optimization is achieved by applying wind filter techniques and days with clear sky condition. With the big (measurement) data on hand it was possible to determine the change of the temperature coefficients for varying irradiance. As stated in literature we see an increase of the temperature coefficient of voltage and a decline for the temperature coefficient of power with increasing irradiance
Challenges – Towards Continuous Peer Assessment in Undergraduate Programming Classes
No full textThis paper presents a pragmatic approach for stepwise introduction of peer assessment elements in undergraduate programming classes, discusses some lessons learned so far and directions for further work. Students are invited to challenge their peers with their own programming exercises to be submitted through Moodle and evaluated by other students according to a predefined rubric and supervised by teaching assistants. Preliminary results show an increased activation and motivation of students leading to a better performance in the final programming exams
