In computed tomography (CT), scattering causes server quality degradation of the reconstructed CT images by introducing streaks and cupping artifacts which reduce the detectability of low contrast objects. Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is considered the most accurate approach for scatter estimation...

Quantum computers have the potential to surpass classical computers in specific tasks, promising advantages in many fields. Machine Learning (ML), a domain with significant societal impact, is a key area of interest for exploring the applications of quantum computing. Here, we investigate&#x...

Any 6-dimensional strict nearly Kähler manifold is Einstein with positive scalar curvature. We compute the coindex of the metric with respect to the Einstein-Hilbert functional on each of the compact homogeneous examples. Moreover, we show that the infinitesimal Einstein deformations on F1,2...

We investigate reactive flow and transport in evolving porous media. Solute species that are transported within the fluid phase are taking part in mineral precipitation and dissolution reactions for two competing mineral phases. The evolution of the three phases is not known a-priori&#x...

Purpose: The sediment supply to rivers, lakes, and reservoirs has a great influence on hydro-morphological processes. For instance, long-term predictions of bathymetric change for modeling climate change scenarios require an objective calculation procedure of sediment load as a function of catchm...

The regulation of cellular activities is a key hallmark in the development of complex life forms. Among other factors, it is facilitated by protein lysine methyltransferases (PKMTs), which modify proteins in a highly specific manner and regulate their biological activities. Here, we des...

AbstractWind tunnel investigations of how Natural Laminar Flow (NLF) airfoils respond to atmospheric turbulence require the generation of turbulence, whose relevant characteristics resemble those in the atmosphere. The lower, convective part of the atmospheric boundary layer is characterized by low&#x...

Transkriptionsfaktoren und Histon-modifizierende Enzyme sind zentrale Regulatoren der Genexpression sowie der Differenzierung. Die Adipogenese wird durch ein Netzwerk an verschiedenen Transkriptionsfaktoren reguliert. Bei der Differenzierung von MSCs legen Transkriptionsfaktoren fest, in welchen Zelltyp die Zellen ...

This work proposes a methodology to systematically identify, evaluate and manage operation-friendly industrial energy flexibility measures. It is structured in three consecutive phases. In the first phase, the available industrial systems, their relevant features, and their energy consumption patterns ...

In the era of big data, multitudes of data are generated and collected in companies. This data contains a potential value that can be leveraged to gain new insights, e.g., for enhancing business models or reengineering industrial products. Extracting data value requires that this&#...

Motivated by the subordinated Brownian motion, we define a new class of (in general discontinuous) random fields on higher-dimensional parameter domains: the subordinated Gaussian random field. We investigate the pointwise marginal distribution of the constructed random fields, derive a Lévy-Khinchin-...

The idea of the wisdom of the crowd is that integrating multiple estimates of a group of individuals provides an outcome that is often better than most of the underlying estimates or even better than the best individual estimate. In this paper, we examine the wisdom ...

The recent surge in the field of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has the potential to bring about transformative changes across a range of sectors, including software engineering and education. In light of the considerable power of these tools and their largely freely availab...

With the increasing significance of machine learning (ML) systems across various industries, leveraging Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) to effectively streamline the lifecycle of ML models has become a focal point. Central to the MLOps is the effective management of data, which is a...

Das heutige Internet wird durch privatwirtschaftlich betriebene Plattformen der unterschiedlichsten Art geprägt. Dieser Beitrag fragt danach, wie sich die kommerziellen Kommunikations‑, Markt‑, Konsum- und Serviceplattformen als distinkte Unternehmensform fassen lassen. Dazu wird eine basale Unterscheidung zwischen ...

Die genaue Bestimmung der Sperrschichttemperatur spielt eine elementare Rolle bei der Optimierung der Leistungsfähigkeiten sowie der Zuverlässigkeit von SiC (Silicon Carbide)-Leistungsmodulen. Im Rahmen der indirekten Bestimmung der Sperrschichttemperatur lassen sich Temperature Sensitive Electrical Parameters (TSEPs) ei...

The conventional approach of filter-based search of academic papers is often linear and user-intensive. Initially, it involves manually classifying the relevant academic papers stored in a repository into filter categories. Subsequently, based on the user’s selection, relevant academic papers are ...
