Erweiterung des kantonalen Verkehrsmodells Aargau um ein radtypenspezifisches Verhaltensmodell
No full textDie Mobilität in der Schweiz befindet sich im Wandel. Neue gesetzliche Grundlagen, wie das Veloweggesetz, fördern die Bedeutung des Fahrradverkehrs. Parallel dazu verändert der technische Fortschritt die zunehmende Verbreitung von E-Bikes. Daraus ergibt sich eine zentrale Fragestellung für die Verkehrsmodellierung: Wie kann ein etabliertes Verkehrsmodell an die dynamischen Entwicklungen im Fahrradverkehr adaptiert werden? Mit dieser Fragestellung befasst sich die Masterarbeit von Noè Fiabane des Masterstudiengangs MSE Civil Engineering. Die Erkenntnisse aus dem Einbau zeigen, welche Erweiterungen bereits heute in einem aggregierten Modell umsetzbar sind und an welchen Stellen datenbezogene sowie konzeptionelle Limitationen bestehen
Automated Knowledge Graph Creation for Semantic Verification
No full textAutomated knowledge graph (KG) construction has become a critical approach for structuring complex, domain-specific information, particularly within technical and highstakes contexts. Despite recent advancements, current solutions often suffer from inaccurate triplet extraction, inadequate validation mechanisms, and a high degree of dependency on manual review
Equipping instructors to foster AI literacy in the higher education classroom. Preliminary results from a pilot project
No full textThe ever-growing number of new and constantly evolving AI-based (writing) tools poses a major challenge for university teaching, especially in writing classes. While students are increasingly exploring these tools without reflecting their use critically enough, many instructors are unsure how to approach these new tools in their own teaching and whether or how to integrate them into their courses. They are unfamiliar with many of the tools or feel overwhelmed by the abundance of options and the obvious or sometimes perceived expectation to integrate them into their teaching. As part of an award-winning pilot project, a platform was therefore developed to support instructors in teaching basic AI literacy skills, providing curated teaching materials and specially designed workshops. Survey results, ongoing subscriptions to the platform, and its partial integration into a new cross-university project all highlight the strong appreciation and continued relevance of these resources among instructors and higher education experts

Information Extraction from Financial Tables: Application and Evaluation of a Machine Learning Approach in Annual Reports
No full textIn recent years, specialized deep-learning models have demonstrated promising results in extracting table information from PDFs. In addition, multi-module solutions have been developed to process complex PDF documents and optimally align the extraction techniques to the different document components. Furthermore, Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown a comprehensive language understanding. However, the performance of these new possibilities has not yet been validated in an end-to-end process on a dataset of annual reports
Olfaktorische Spuren. Eine multisensorische Duft- und Lichtinstallation
No full textEin Raum voller Geschichte, durchzogen von Licht und Duft. Die multisensorische Installation in der Plaza des kHaus in Basel thematisiert Identität in ihren räumlichen, individuellen und kollektiven Dimensionen. Sie stellt die Frage, wie sich Identität bildet, wandelt oder verloren geht. Im Zentrum stehen acht sorgfältig komponierte Duftnoten, entstanden aus archivarischer Recherche, Ortsbegehungen und künstlerischer Interpretation. Jeder Duft verkörpert eine Schicht des Ortes: das Vergangene, das Gegenwärtige, das Mögliche. Begleitet wird jede Duftkomposition von einer ihr zugewiesenen Lichtfarbe. Die vielschichtige Lichtinstallation durchläuft ein breites Farbspektrum und begleitet jede Duftkomposition mit einer spezifischen Lichtfarbe. So entstehen wechselnde Atmosphären, mal weich, mal klar, mal fremd, mal vertraut. Der Raum verändert sich mit dem Licht und der Zeit: Die Installation ist sowohl bei Tag als auch bei Nacht erlebbar und entfaltet je nach Tageszeit neue Wirkungen. Erinnerung, Assoziation und sinnliche Erfahrung verweben sich zu einem offenen Archiv von Identität – flüchtig und gleichzeitig tief berührend. Ein Ort, an dem Spuren sichtbar, riechbar und spürbar werden.https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11806/data/NextGen25-g6z880y
Empowering frontline workers through digital transformation processes adoption using cloud services with productivity tools
No full textPostBus Ltd. is one of the largest passenger transportation companies in Switzerland, employing over 2.500 bus drivers who represent one type of their frontline workers. These bus drivers drive primarily and do not have much time to engage with the digital world. To keep pace with the digital transformation, PostBus Ltd. has given them payable iPads so that they can view their instructions and other operationally relevant documents digitally and at a reasonable size. A “Mobile Information Terminal” tool, which has been in use up to now, enables one-way communication and data storage. This has enabled partial integration of the bus drivers to date. Since Swiss Post, of which PostBus Ltd. is a part, has decided to use Microsoft 365 (M365) as its main cloud service medium, PostBus Ltd. can now fully integrate its drivers thanks to M365.
However, two questions arise: how can cloud services and productivity tools support the specific work requirements of bus drivers at Postbus Ltd. and how can PostBus Ltd. manage the digital transformation of their bus drivers
Vape redefined, the next generation of e-cigarettes. Branding development and go-to-market communications strategy
No full textAvogen Tech SA, a Swiss startup, developed a patented water-based, ultrasonic vaping device that reduces health risks in comparison to conventional e-cigarettes. Despite the product being almost ready to get launched, the business lacked a well-defined brand identity and a go-to-market communication strategy appropriate for the heavily regulated e-cigarette industry
