Human-AI interaction in safety-critical network infrastructures
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming every aspect of modern society. It demonstrates a high potential to contribute to more flexible operations of safety-critical network infrastructures under deep transformation to tackle global challenges, such as climate change, energy transition, efficiency, and digital transformation, including increasing infrastructure resilience to natural and human-made hazards. The widespread adoption of AI creates the conditions for a new and inevitable interaction between humans and AI-based decision systems. In such a scenario, creating an ecosystem in which humans and AI interact healthily, where the roles and positions of both actors are well-defined, is a critical challenge for research and industry in the coming years. This perspective article outlines the challenges and requirements for effective human-AI interaction by taking an interdisciplinary point of view that merges computer science, decision-making sciences, psychological constructs, and industrial practices. The work focuses on three emblematic safety-critical scenarios from two different domains: energy (power grids) and mobility (railway networks and air traffic management)
Electromagnetic tracking system for position and orientation detection of deep brain stimulation electrodes during surgery
This paper describes a 3D electromagnetic tracking (EMT) system, based on quasi-static magnetic fields and a sub-millimeter 3D magnetometer, providing complete localization – both spatial and angular positions – during surgical procedures. By integrating miniaturized sensors into surgical tools, such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes, this tracking system offers complementary or alternative solutions for X-ray imaging. Each spatial position in the measurement volume (MV) is uniquely encoded by a vector of four magnetic field amplitudes using the multilateration principle. The orientation is derived from the three orthogonal components associated with this vector. The field generator (FG) was manufactured on printed circuit boards ensuring high reproducibility and accurate magnetic fields. Position localization was evaluated using a custom magnetic field camera placed at various positions in the MV while the orientation was evaluating using a stereotactic system used in DBS surgery. Finally, DBS implantations were simulated to conclude on the validity of the tracking system for DBS surgery. The system achieved spatial and angular errors of 1.72 mm and 0.89° within a MV of 15 × 15 × 15 cm3 located at 18 cm from the FG and an update rate of the position of 0.4 Hz. Better performances – mean spatial and angular errors of 0.87 mm and 0.52° – were achieved when simulating DBS implantations. With its large distance to the FG, this quasi-static EMT system is particularly well-suited for DBS surgery, offering regular feedback to neurosurgeons. The tracking system could also be adapted to other functional neurosurgeries

Interdisziplinäre Synthese und Reflexion
Das Forschungsprojekt INTAPART widmete sich der Frage, wie Kinder und Eltern das Handeln der Kindesschutzbehörden erleben (Kapitel 2). Dazu wurden eine historische Untersuchung, eine rechtliche Analyse und eine empirische Studie durchgeführt (Kapitel 3). Im Kapitel werden die zentralen Ergebnisse der drei Teilstudien entlang ihrer Fragestellungen zusammenfassend dargestellt. Darauf aufbauend werden die Ergebnisse aus interdisziplinärer Perspektive miteinander in Beziehung gesetzt und diskutiert

Organizational Digital Twins as Strategic Tools: Advanc-ing Cybersecurity Risk Man-agement
This master thesis explores strategies to support cybersecurity leadership by focusing on the development and refinement of a Digital Twin of an Organization (DTO) model tailored to the needs of Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs). Modern cybersecurity management requires CISOs to make complex strategic decisions amid dynamic threats, regulatory pressures, and resource constraints
