In Folge der gegenwärtigen Digitalisierung in der produzierenden Industrie werden Anwendungen oder Services mit potentiell positiven Auswirkungen auf Faktoren wie Effektivität und Arbeitsqualität entwickelt. Ein geeigneter Ansatz zur Stärkung motivierender Aspekte im Arbeitskontext kann Gamification darstellen. In dieser Arbeit ist die initiale Konzeption und Evaluation eines Gamification-Ansatzes für Anwender eines KI-Service zur Maschinenoptimierung dargestellt und möglichen Anforderungen an ein Konzept zur Motivationssteigerung extrahiert.
In dieser Ausarbeitung wird eine zeitliche Vorhersage von Erdbeben getroffen. Hierfür werden mit einem Datensatz aus Labor-Erdbeben Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) trainiert. Die trainierten Netzwerke geben Vorhersagen, indem sie einen Input an seismischen Daten klassifizieren. Durch das Klassifizieren kann das CNN die zeitliche Entfernung zum nächsten Erdbeben vorhersagen. Es werden hierfür zwei Ansätze miteinander verglichen. Beim ersten Ansatz werden die Originaldaten in ein CNN gegeben. Beim zweiten Ansatz wird vor dem CNN eine Vorverarbeitung der Daten mit den Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) durchgeführt. Es zeigt sich, dass mit beiden Ansätzen eine gute Klassifikation möglich ist. Die Kombination aus MFCC und CNN liefert die besseren quantitativen Ergebnisse. Hierbei konnte eine Genauigkeit von 65 % erreicht werden.
Semi-automated image data labelling using AprilTags as a pre-processing step for machine learning
(2019)
Data labelling is a pre-processing step to prepare data for machine learning. There are many ways to collect and prepare this data, but these are usually associated with a greater effort. This paper presents an approach to semi-automated image data labelling using AprilTags. The AprilTags attached to the object, which contain a unique ID, make it possible to link the object surfaces to a particular class. This approach will be implemented and used to label data of a stackable box.
The data is evaluated by training a You Only Look Once (YOLO) net, with a subsequent evaluation of the detection results. These results show that the semi-automatically collected and labelled data can certainly be used for machine learning. However, if concise features of an object surface are covered by the AprilTag, there is a risk that the concerned class will not be recognized. It can be assumed that the labelled data can not only be used for YOLO, but also for other machine learning approaches.
Bereits zum elften Mal findet nun die Studierendenkonferenz Informatics Inside statt. Als Teil des Masterstudiengangs Human-Centered Computing organisieren Masterstudierende selbständig eine vollumfängliche wissenschaftliche Konferenz. Die Informatik ist nach wie vor ständigem Wandel unterworfen. Unsere Studierenden tragen diesem Wandel bei, indem sie in ihrer wissenschaftllichen Vertiefung aktuelle Problemstellungen durch innovative Konzepte lösen. Inzwischen ist die Informatik aber auch nicht immer sofort sichtbar. Das merken wir immer dann, wenn etwas nicht wie vorgesehen funktioniert. Das diesjährige Motto der Informatics Inside ist experience (IT);, verdeckt als Funktionsaufruf:).
Type 1 diabetes is a chronic and a life threatening disease: an adjusted treatment and a proper management of the disease are crucial to prevent or delay the complications of diabetes. Although during the last decade the development of the artificial pancreas has presented great advances in diabetes care, the multiple daily injections therapy still represents the most widely used treatment option for type 1 diabetes. This work presents the proposal and first development stages of an application focused on guiding patients using the continuous glucose monitors and smart pens together with insulin and carbohydrates recommendations. Our proposal aims to develop a platform to integrate a series of innovative machine learning models and tools rigorously tested together with the use of the latest IoT devices to manage type 1 diabetes. The resulting system actually closes the loop, like the artificial pancreas, but in an intermittent way.
Due to the rising need for palliative care in Russia, it is crucial to provide timely and high-quality solutions for patients, relatives, and caregivers. A methodology for remote monitoring of patients in need of palliative care and the requirements will be developed for a hardware-software complex for remote monitoring of patients' health at home.
The potentials and opportunities created by digitized healthcare can be further customized through smart data processing and analysis using accurate patient information. This development and the associated new treatment concepts basing on digital smart sensors can lead to an increase in motivation by applying gamification approaches. This effect can also be used in the field of medical treatment, e.g. with the help of a digital spirometer combined with an app. In one of our exemplary applications, we show how to control an airplane within an app by breathing respectively inhaling and exhaling. Using this biofeedback within a game allows us to increase the motivation and fun for children that need to perform necessary exercises.
This paper investigates the possibility to effectively monitor and control the respiratory action using a very simple and non invasive technique based on a single lightweight reduced-size wireless surface electromyography (sEMG) sensor placed below the sternum. The captured sEMG signal, due to the critical sensor position, is characterized by a low energy level and it is affected by motion artifacts and cardiac noise. In this work we present a preliminary study performed on adults for assessing the correlation of the spirometry signal and the sEMG signal after the removal of the superimposed heart signal. This study and the related findings could be useful in respiratory monitoring of preterm infants.
During two researches the influence of technologies on sleep were analyzed. The first one is about the effect of light on the circadian rhythm and as consequence on sleep quality of persons in a vegetative state. The second one, which is still running, surveys the influence of several technical tools on the sleep of elderly people living in a nursing home.
