Automated speaker attribution, which detects who said what to whom in a speech event and is closely related to semantic role labeling, is an important processing step for computational text analysis. We study the potential of the large language model family Llama 2 to automate speaker attribution in German parliamentary debates from 2017-2021. We fine-tune Llama 2 with QLoRA, an efficient training strategy, and observe our approach to achieve competitive performance in the GermEval 2023 Shared Task On Speaker Attribution in German News Articles and Parliamentary Debates.

The motivation lies in exploring a novel approach to efficiently generate high-energy density plasma with potential applications across various fields. Implemented in an E01 circular cavity resonator, the proposed method involves the use of an impedance and field matching device with a coaxial connector and a specially optimized monopole antenna. This setup feeds a low-loss cavity resonator, resulting in a high-energy density air plasma with a surface temperature exceeding 3500 o C, achieved with a minimal power input of 80 W. The argon plasma, resembling the shape of a simple monopole antenna with modeled complex dielectric values, offers a more energy-efficient alternative compared to traditional, power-intensive plasma shaping methods. Simulations using a commercial electromagnetic (EM) solver validate the design's effectiveness, while experimental validation underscores the method's feasibility and practical implementation. Analyzing various parameters in an argon atmosphere, including hot S -parameters and plasma beam images, the results demonstrate the successful application of this technique, suggesting its potential in coating, furnace technology, fusion, and spectroscopy applications.}, language = {en} } @masterthesis{Zeyen2024, type = {Bachelor Thesis}, author = {Zeyen, Kim}, title = {Seeds : Konzeption und Gestaltung eines Toolkits f{\"u}r die Entwicklung nachhaltiger Webdesigns}, publisher = {FH Aachen}, address = {Aachen}, school = {Fachhochschule Aachen}, pages = {197 Seiten}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Die Menschheit lebt {\"u}ber ihre Verhältnisse: Permanent {\"u}bersteigt unser Verbrauch die uns j{\"a}hrlich zur Verf{\"u}gung stehenden Ressourcen.

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} } @book{ElsaesserKlebinggatKuhnetal.2024, author = {Elsaesser, Evelyn and Klebinggat, Michael and Kuhn, Wilfried and Michielsens, Constant and Pauels, Willibert and Popkes, Enno E. and Schneider, Elke and Laack, Walter van and Warven, Rinus van}, title = {Schnittstelle Tod - Ist die Menschheit zu retten ohne Vertrauen auf ein Danach}, editor = {Laack, Walter van}, publisher = {van Laack Buchverlag}, address = {Aachen}, isbn = {978-3-936624-58-8}, pages = {156 Seiten}, year = {2024}, language = {de} } @incollection{Krause2024, author = {Krause, Thomas}, title = {Schalung und Ger{\"u}ste}, series = {Zahlentafeln f{\"u}r den Baubetrieb}, booktitle = {Zahlentafeln f{\"u}r den Baubetrieb}, editor = {Krause, Thomas and Ulke, Bernd and Ferger, Martin}, publisher = {Springer Vieweg}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-658-41329-3 (Print)}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-658-41330-9_10}, pages = {659 -- 705}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Systemschalungen und Systemger{\"u}ste haben den Baustellenbetrieb in vielen Bereichen sehr vereinfacht.
