Concerning the projected depletion of fossil fuels, this is of great interest. The cultivation of clostridia is known to be challenging, and it is difficult to achieve reproducible results and robust processes. However, existing publications usually concentrate on the cultivation conditions of the main culture. In this paper, the influence of cryo-conservation and pre-culture on growth and solvent production in the resulting main cultivation are examined. A protocol was developed that leads to reproducible cultivations of Clostridium acetobutylicum. Detailed investigation of the cell conservation in cryo-cultures ensured reliable cell growth in the pre-culture. Moreover, a reason for the acid crash in the main culture was found, based on the cultivation conditions of the pre-culture. The critical parameter to avoid the acid crash and accomplish the shift to the solventogenesis of clostridia is the metabolic phase in which the cells of the pre-culture were at the time of inoculation of the main culture; this depends on the cultivation time of the pre-culture. Using cells from the exponential growth phase to inoculate the main culture leads to an acid crash. To achieve the solventogenic phase with butanol production, the inoculum should consist of older cells which are in the stationary growth phase. Considering these parameters, which affect the entire cultivation process, reproducible results and reliable solvent production are ensured.}, language = {en} } @article{FontiEilmannGarciaGonzalezetal.2009, author = {Fonti, Patrick and Eilmann, Britta and Garc{\´i}a-Gonz{\´a}lez, Ignacio and von Arx, Georg}, title = {Expeditious building of ring-porous earlywood vessel chronologies without loosing signal information}, series = {Trees : structure and function}, volume = {23}, journal = {Trees : structure and function}, number = {3}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {0931-1890 (Print)}, doi = {10.1007/s00468-008-0310-z}, pages = {665 -- 671}, year = {2009}, language = {en} } @article{KohlKraemerFohryetal.2024, author = {Kohl, Philipp and Kr{\"a}mer, Yoka and Fohry, Claudia and Kraft, Bodo}, title = {Scoping review of active learning strategies and their evaluation environments for entity recognition tasks}, series = {Deep learning theory and applications}, journal = {Deep learning theory and applications}, editor = {Fred, Ana and Hadjali, Allel and Gusikhin, Oleg and Sansone, Carlo}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-031-66694-0 (online ISBN)}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-031-66694-0_6}, pages = {84 -- 106}, year = {2024}, abstract = {We conducted a scoping review for active learning in the domain of natural language processing (NLP), which we summarize in accordance with the PRISMA-ScR guidelines as follows: Objective: Identify active learning strategies that were proposed for entity recognition and their evaluation environments (datasets, metrics, hardware, execution time). Design: We used Scopus and ACM as our search engines. We compared the results with two literature surveys to assess the search quality. We included peer-reviewed English publications introducing or comparing active learning strategies for entity recognition. Results: We analyzed 62 relevant papers and identified 106 active learning strategies. We grouped them into three categories: exploitation-based (60x), exploration-based (14x), and hybrid strategies (32x). We found that all studies used the F1-score as an evaluation metric. Information about hardware (6x) and execution time (13x) was only occasionally included. The 62 papers used 57 different datasets to evaluate their respective strategies. Most datasets contained newspaper articles or biomedical/medical data. Our analysis revealed that 26 out of 57 datasets are publicly accessible. Conclusion: Numerous active learning strategies have been identified, along with significant open questions that still need to be addressed. Researchers and practitioners face difficulties when making data-driven decisions about which active learning strategy to adopt. Conducting comprehensive empirical comparisons using the evaluation environment proposed in this study could help establish best practices in the domain.}, language = {en} } @incollection{HirtBleckBobzinetal.2011, author = {Hirt, Gerhard and Bleck, Wolfgang and Bobzin, Kirsten and Schleser, Markus and Brecher, Christian and B{\"u}hrig-Polazcek, Andreas and Haberstroh, Edmund and Klocke, Fritz and Loosen, Peter and Michaeli, Walter and Poprawe, Reinhart and Reisgen, Uwe and Arntz, Kristian and Bagcivan, Nazlim and Bambach, Markus and B{\"a}umler, Stephan and Beckemper, Stefan and Bergweiler, Georg and Breitbach, Tobias and Buchholz, Steffen and B{\"u}ltmann, Jan and Diettrich, J{\"o}rg and Do-Khac, Dennis and Eilbracht, Stephan and Emonts, Michael and Flock, Dustin and Gerhardt, Kai and Gillner, Arnold and G{\"o}ttmann, Alexander and Gr{\"o}nlund, Oliver and Hartmann, Claudia and Heinen, Daniel and Herfs, Werner and Hermani, Jan-Patrick and Holtkamp, Jens and Todor, Ivanov and Jakob, Matthias and Janssen, Andreas and Karlberger, Andreas and Klaiber, Fritz and Kutschmann, Pia and Neuß, Andreas and Prahl, Ulrich and Roderburg, Andreas and Rosen, Chris-J{\"o}rg and R{\"o}sner, Andreas and Saeed-Akbari, Alireza and Scharf, Micha and Scheik, Sven and Schleser, Markus and Sch{\"o}ngart, Maximilian and Stein, Lars and Steiners, Marius and Stollenwerk, Jochen and Araghi, Babak Taleb and Theiß, Sebastian and Wunderle, Johannes}, title = {Hybride Produktionssysteme}, series = {Integrative Produktionstechnik f{\"u}r Hochlohnl{\"a}nder / hrsg. von Christian Brecher}, booktitle = {Integrative Produktionstechnik f{\"u}r Hochlohnl{\"a}nder / hrsg. von Christian Brecher}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin [u.a.]}, isbn = {978-3-642-20692-4 (Print) ; 978-3-642-20693-1 (E-Book)}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-642-20693-1_5}, pages = {465 -- 745}, year = {2011}, abstract = {W{\"a}hrend die virtuelle Produktentstehungskette große Gestaltungsfreir{\"a}ume bietet, ist die reale Produktentstehungskette durch wesentlich mehr Randbedingungen gekennzeichnet, die nicht oder nur ansatzweise beeinflussbar sind.

Simulation models are commonly used to understand the changing dynamics of future electricity markets. However, existing market models were often created with specific use cases in mind, which limits their flexibility and usability. This can impose challenges for using a single model to compare different market designs. This paper introduces a new method of defining market designs for energy market simulations. The proposed concept makes it easy to incorporate different market designs into electricity market models by using relevant parameters derived from analyzing existing simulation tools, morphological categorization and ontologies. These parameters are then used to derive a market abstraction and integrate it into an agent-based simulation framework, allowing for a unified analysis of diverse market designs. Furthermore, we showcase the usability of integrating new types of long-term contracts and over-the-counter trading. To validate this approach, two case studies are demonstrated: a pay-as-clear market and a pay-as-bid long-term market.

This can lead to large relative overestimation at low actual SAR values, unnecessarily constraining transmit array performance. Method Two strategies are proposed to reduce maximum relative overestimation for a given number of VOPs. The first strategy uses an overestimation matrix that roughly approximates actual local SAR; the second strategy uses a small set of pre-calculated VOPs as the overestimation term for the compression. Result Comparison with a previous method shows that for a given maximum relative overestimation the number of VOPs can be reduced by around 20\% at the cost of a higher absolute overestimation at high actual local SAR values. Conclusion The proposed strategies outperform a previously published strategy and can improve the SAR compression where maximum relative overestimation constrains the performance of parallel transmission.}, language = {en} } @article{SchifferFerreinLakemeyer2012, author = {Schiffer, Stefan and Ferrein, Alexander and Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, title = {Caesar: an intelligent domestic service robot}, series = {Intelligent service robotics}, volume = {5}, journal = {Intelligent service robotics}, number = {4}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1861-2776}, doi = {10.1007/s11370-012-0118-y}, pages = {259 -- 276}, year = {2012}, abstract = {In this paper we present CAESAR, an intelligent domestic service robot. In domestic settings for service robots complex tasks have to be accomplished. Those tasks benefit from deliberation, from robust action execution and from flexible methods for human-robot interaction that account for qualitative notions used in natural language as well as human fallibility. Our robot CAESAR deploys AI techniques on several levels of its system architecture. On the low-level side, system modules for localization or navigation make, for instance, use of path-planning methods, heuristic search, and Bayesian filters. For face recognition and human-machine interaction, random trees and well-known methods from natural language processing are deployed. For deliberation, we use the robot programming and plan language READYLOG, which was developed for the high-level control of agents and robots; it allows combining programming the behaviour using planning to find a course of action. READYLOG is a variant of the robot programming language Golog. We extended READYLOG to be able to cope with qualitative notions of space frequently used by humans, such as "near" and "far". This facilitates human-robot interaction by bridging the gap between human natural language and the numerical values needed by the robot. Further, we use READYLOG to increase the flexible interpretation of human commands with decision-theoretic planning. We give an overview of the different methods deployed in CAESAR and show the applicability of a system equipped with these AI techniques in domestic service robotics}, language = {en} } @article{SchaeferHoefkenSchuba2011, author = {Schaefer, Thomas and H{\"o}fken, Hans-Wilhelm and Schuba, Marko}, title = {Windows Phone 7 from a Digital Forensics' Perspective}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{Ferrein2010, author = {Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {Robot controllers for highly dynamic environments with real-time constraints}, series = {K{\"u}nstliche Intelligenz : KI}, volume = {24}, journal = {K{\"u}nstliche Intelligenz : KI}, number = {2}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Heidelberg}, issn = {1610-1987}, doi = {10.1007/s13218-010-0041-3}, pages = {175 -- 178}, year = {2010}, abstract = {In this extended abstract we describe the robot programming and planning language READYLOG, a GOLOG dialect which was developed to support the decision making of robots acting in dynamic real-time domains like robotic soccer.

The state of the literature did not permit a systematic review; therefore, we performed a narrative review. The majority of the available data come from cell or whole-disc loading models and animal exercise models. However, some studies have examined the impact of specific sports on IVD degeneration in humans and acute exercise on disc size. Based on the data available in the literature, loading types that are likely beneficial to the IVD are dynamic, axial, at slow to moderate movement speeds, and of a magnitude experienced in walking and jogging. Static loading, torsional loading, flexion with compression, rapid loading, high-impact loading and explosive tasks are likely detrimental for the IVD. Reduced physical activity and disuse appear to be detrimental for the IVD. We also consider the impact of genetics and the likelihood of a 'critical period' for the effect of exercise in IVD development.
