    • On Turing machines, groupoids, and Atiyha problem 

      Grabowski, Łukasz (2011-03-17)
      Turing dynamical system, an abstract version of a Turing machine, is defined and investigated using groupoids. The main presented application is to the Atiyah problem in group theory. ...
    • On two Random Models in Data Analysis 

      James, David (2017-03-02)

    • Online Resource Management 

      Tiedemann, Morten (2015-05-04)
      In this thesis, we consider several problems related to online resource management. In online optimization, an algorithm has to make decisions based on a sequence of incoming bits of information without knowledge of future ...
    • Online Social Network Data Placement over Clouds 

      Jiao, Lei (2014-08-11)
      Internet services today are often deployed and operated in data centers and clouds; users access and use the services by connecting to such data centers from their computing devices. For availability, fault tolerance, and ...
    • Ontology-based transformation of natural language queries into SPARQL queries by evolutionary algorithms 

      Schrage, Sebastian (2022-01-21)
      In this thesis an ontology-driven evolutionary learning system for natural language querying of RDF graphs is presented. The learning system itself does not answer the query, but generates a SPARQL query against the ...
    • Optimal Hankel Structured Rank-1 Approximation 

      Knirsch, Hanna Elisabeth (2022-03-10)
      Hankel matrices are closely related to linear time-invariant (LTI) models, which are widely used in areas like system theory, signal processing, computer algebra, or machine learning. The complexity of such a model is ...
    • Optimizations of Optical Flow Measurement Systems 

      Gesemann, Sebastian (2018-10-22)
      In this cumulative thesis contributions are presented that cover the computational aspects of optical measurement systems for flow investigations in aerodynamics and fluid mechanics. Flow measurements are useful in gaining ...
    • Origami Cylinders 

      Bös, Friedrich (2018-05-02)
      Origami, the age-old art of folding intricate three-dimensional structures from flat material, has found numerous applications in e.g. the design of deployable structures and mechanical metamaterials.  This thesis ...
    • PAC-Lernen zur Insolvenzvorhersage und Hotspot-Identifikation 

      Brodag, Thomas (2008-07-22)
      Methods of machine learning are a very powerful tool in bioinformatics. Due to their versatility they also proof useful in different fields of application. In case of supervised learning, ...
    • Paradifferential Operators and Conormal Distributions 

      Spratte, Robin (2020-02-24)
      In this thesis we develop a generalization of Hörmander’s symbol calculus of conor- mal distributions [Hö07, Chapter 18.2] and provide techniques for applications to nonlinear hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations. ...
    • Parallele dynamische Adaption hybrider Netze für effizientes verteiltes Rechnen 

      Alrutz, Thomas (2008-10-27)
      The presented work covers the research activities and publications of the author in the field of scientifc computing. The article deals with the numeric simulation of aerodynamic effects ...
    • Partial Least Squares for Serially Dependent Data 

      Singer, Marco (2016-09-12)
      In the first paper we consider the partial least squares algorithm for dependent data and study the consequences of ignoring the dependence both theoretically and numerically. Ignoring nonstationary dependence structures ...
    • Pathwise Uniqueness of the Stochastic Heat Equation with Hölder continuous o diffusion coefficient and colored noise 

      Rippl, Thomas (2013-01-15)
      We consider the stochastic heat equation in $\mathbb{R}_+ \times \mathbb{R}^q$ with multiplicative noise: \[ \partial_t u(t,x) = \frac{1}{2} \Delta u(t,x) + b(t,x,u(t,x)) + \sigma(t,x,u(t,x)) \, \dot{W}(t,x) .\] Here, ...
    • Pattern-Based Vulnerability Discovery 

      Yamaguchi, Fabian (2015-11-10)
