title: Dialektwandel im Weinviertel
Creators: name: Schmid, Anna
Year: 2017

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich im Allgemeinen mit dem Dialektwandel in Nie-derösterreich. Im Speziellen geht es um das Verschwinden der ui-Mundart aus dem Sprachgebrauch der Bewohner im Bezirk Mistelbach. Ziel der Forschung ist es, aufzu-zeigen, dass die ui-Mundart noch nicht zur Gänze verschwunden ist, dass es aber sehr wohl große Unterschiede zwischen den einzelnen Generationen, den Gegebenheiten und auch zwischen den einzelnen Gemeinden im Bezirk gibt. Nachdem im theoretischen Teil der Arbeit ein Überblick über den mittelbairischen Sprachraum, die ui-Mundart und die Sprachveränderungsprozesse gegeben wurde, wurden im empirischen Teil die durch die Studie gewonnenen Ergebnisse analysiert und präsentiert. Die Erhebung der dafür notwendigen Daten erfolgte durch eine indirekte Befragung mittels Fragebogen, der sowohl in einer Onlineversion als auch in einer Printversion an die Bewohner im Untersuchungsbezirk verteilt wurde. Damit in Zusammenhang wurden auch soziode-mographische Aspekte, wie Alter, Geschlecht, Wohnort, Bildung und Mobilität für die Untersuchung herangezogen und mit dem Sprachverhalten im Bezirk Mistelbach in Verbindung gebracht.

description: It was originally planned that this paper should be a study of the influence of the fine arts upon several English Romantic Poets as indicated by references in their work; but as the reading in poetry progressed, and the enormity of the task became apparent, the need of setting up some metes and bounds became necessary, so that eventually the idea became metamorphosed into a study of the work of one poet alone and its similarity to contemporary painting. For often, in the last two years, while I have been gathering these allusions to the fine arts, my attention has been arrested by elusive descriptive material, certainly not definitely a reference to painting as an art, but just as surely potential picture material. For a time I kept a file of such passages in Wordsworth's poetry, in the way of grasping at straws which might be useful, later, in establishing proof of his interest in painting, or in what makes a picture; but I discontinued it as the references to painting were actually so few that the very opposite of the thing I was hoping to find seemed more likely to be the truth - that Wordsworth was apparently only slightly interested in painting, itself. And yet, although the references to specific pictures were rather few, evidence of his interest in the material out of which pictures are certainly suggested and perhaps later created, was so abundant as to be found on almost every page; so that finally I gave up pursuing any farther my earlier idea of working out the interest of these several poets. It was becoming rather an oppressive cataloguing job, anyway, and I was finding that this other and less definitely organized, potential picture material presented a more enticing problem beginning to take shape in my mind.
title: Das Österreichbild internationaler Studierender in Wien
Creators: name: Resch, Desiree
Year: 2017

description: Die Lernziele eines Fremdsprachenunterrichts haben sich im Laufe der Zeit deutlich verändert. „Interkulturelle Kompetenz“, als Fähigkeit mit Menschen anderer Erstsprachen und anderer kultureller Herkunft kommunizieren zu können, wurde dabei immer mehr zum Schlüsselwort. Zudem kam es zu einer Weiterentwicklung des landeskundlichen Ansatzes hin zum kulturwissenschaftlichen. In diesem Kontext spielen auch Nationenbilder, damit zusammenhängende Stereotype und der Umgang mit solchen im Fremdsprachenunterricht eine bedeutende Rolle. An diesem Punkt setzte die vorliegende Diplomarbeit an. Ihr Ziel war es, das Österreichbild internationaler Studierender in Wien beschreiben zu können, indem eine emische Perspektive eingenommen wurde. Darüber hinaus sollte der Einfluss der Faktoren DaF-Unterricht und Auslandsaufenthalt Besprechung finden. Zu diesem Zwecke wurden problemzentrierte Leitfadeninterviews mit Studierenden sechs verschiedener Nationen durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse wurden im Anschluss mithilfe einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse interpretiert. Zusammengefasst kann festgehalten werden, dass das Österreichbild der Studierenden durchaus auch stereotype Einstellungen enthielt. Dies könnte u.a. darauf zurückzuführen sein, dass in den besuchten DaF-Kursen weiterhin die Vermittlung einer traditionellen Landeskunde zu überwiegen scheint. Während der Einfluss des Auslandsaufenthalts als durchaus nennenswert von den Studierenden bewertet wurde, scheint jener des DaF-Unterrichts, zumindest nach der Einschätzung der Befragten, weitaus geringer zu sein.

title: Volkstümliche Elemente in Aleksandr Kondrat'evs Exilwerk
Creators: name: Sokolets, Olha
Year: 2017

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich mit dem Thema der volkstümlichen Elemente in Aleksandr Kondrat’evs Exilwerk auseinander und versucht die Ursachen für die relative Unbekanntheit des Schriftstellers und seiner Werke beim breiten Publikum herauszufinden. Als grundlegende Ausgangspunkte der Arbeit dient einerseits die These von Stanisłav Lem, nach denen jedes Werk einem dem Tierreich ähnlichen Evolutionsprozess in der gesellschaftlichen Rezeption unterworfen ist, anderseits wird die historische Soziologie der russischen Literatur im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert umfangreich berücksichtigt. Zu Beginn der Arbeit wird zunächst ein Überblick über die theoretischen Ansätze gegeben. Anschließend folgt eine Analyse über das Schicksal von Aleksandr Kondrat’evs Schaffen in der Vor- und Exilzeit, wobei der Augenmerk besonders auf das gesellschaftliche Leben des Schriftstellers und sein künstlerisches Schaffen, sowie die Auswertung der Zeitungen und Zeitschriften, in denen seine Werke erschienen sind und des Echos, die sie bei den Literaturkritikern ausgelöst haben, gerichtet wurde. Im Hauptteil der Arbeit wird die Einbettung der Werke Kondrat’evs in die literarische Strömung des „Neomythologismus“ beleuchtet. Dabei steht die Verarbeitung der volkstümlichen und folkloristischen Elemente der Ostslawen in Kondrat’evs Schaffen im Mittelpunkt des Interesses. Um die Eigentümlichkeit von Kodrat’evs Werken zu unterstreichen oder aber auch gewisse Gemeinsamkeiten zu finden, wird in diesem Teil der Arbeit der Vergleich zu anderen Dichtern bzw. Schriftstellern dieser Zeit gezogen, die ebenfalls „neomythologische Versuche“ in ihrem Schaffen unternommen haben. Den Abschluss dieser Arbeit bildet die Auswertung der Gründe und Ursachen für den Ausklang des Neomythologismus, in dessen Rahmen die Lage der russischen Schriftsteller im Exil sowie der misslungene Generationswechsel in der Emigration beleuchtet werden. Abschließend wird ein Überblick über die gegenwärtige Forschung hinsichtlich der Werke Kondrat’evs sowie deren Verbreitung in der heutigen Zeit geboten.

On the long-term stability of the Solar System in the presence of weak perturbations from stellar flybys

description: The architecture and evolution of planetary systems are shaped in part by stellar flybys. Within this context, we look at stellar encounters which are too weak to immediately destabilize a planetary system but are nevertheless strong enough to measurably perturb the system's dynamical state. We estimate the strength of such perturbations on secularly evolving systems using a simple analytic model and confirm those estimates with direct N-body simulations. We then run long-term integrations and show that even small perturbations from stellar flybys can influence the stability of planetary systems over their lifetime. We find that small perturbations to the outer planets' orbits are transferred between planets, increasing the likelihood that the inner planetary system will destabilize. Specifically, our results for the Solar System show that relative perturbations to Neptune's semi-major axis of order 0.1% are strong enough to increase the probability of destabilizing the Solar System within 5 Gyrs by one order of magnitude.

title: Translationspolitik in Guatemala am Beispiel des Gerichtsdolmetschens
Creators: name: Rivera, Mendoza Hugo René
Year: 2017

description: Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem Gerichtsdolmetschen in Guatemala, einem Land mit einer offiziellen und 23 zusätzlich anerkannten Sprachen, und versucht, die Frage zu klären, ob und inwieweit die Republik Guatemala ihre Verpflichtungen für einen adäquaten Zugang der indigenen Bevölkerung zur Justiz mithilfe des Gerichtsdolmetschens erfüllt. Dazu werden die Maya-Sprachen sowie Xinca und Garífuna und ihre Sprecher_innen im kolonialen Kontext Guatemalas dargestellt sowie in einem weiteren Schritt die gültigen Gesetze und internationa-len Abkommen präsentiert, aus denen sich die Notwendigkeit einer mehrsprachigen Justiz und in der Folge auch des Gerichtsdolmetschens und -übersetzens ableiten lassen. In einem weite-ren Schritt werden die vom Staat Guatemala geschaffenen Instrumente und Behörden, die für eine adäquate Dolmetschung und Übersetzung bei Gericht sorgen, sowie Informationen zum Ausmaß und zur Qualität der angebotenen Dolmetschdienste bei Gericht vorgestellt. Im Zuge dieser Arbeit zeigte sich, dass mit dem jetzigen System des Gerichtsdolmetschens die Repub-lik Guatemala in qualitativer Hinsicht ihre Verpflichtungen im Sinne eines verbesserten Zu-gangs der Maya-Bevölkerung zur Justiz erfüllt, aber dass die geschaffenen Strukturen bei wei-tem nicht über die notwendigen Ressourcen oder eine kritische Größe verfügen, um eine nachhaltige und spürbare Verbesserung erzielen zu können.
description: This thesis focuses on the court interpreting system of Guatemala, a country with one official and 23 additional recognized languages, and tries to determine whether and, if so, to which extent the Republic of Guatemala fulfills its obligation to guarantee adequate access to justice for indigenous peoples through its court interpreting system. In a first step, the Mayan lan-guages, as well as Xinca and Garífuna are presented with their respective speaker statistics. This is followed by an analysis of the applicable laws and international treaties from which the necessity of multilingual justice and, therefore, of a court interpreting and translation system derives. Next, the thesis examines the instruments and bodies created by the Guatemalan state to deliver its court interpreting and translation services, as well as data on their extent and quality. The results of this thesis show that the Republic of Guatemala’s current court inter-preting system fulfills its obligations to provide adequate access to justice for its Mayan citi-zens on a qualitative level, but also that the created structures have neither the necessary re-sources nor the critical mass to ensure a sustainable and tangible improvement of the system.

Effect of thermal gluon absorption and medium fluctuations on heavy flavour nuclear modification factor at RHIC and LHC energies

description: The presence of thermal gluons reduces the stimulated gluon emission off a heavy quark propagating in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) while absorption causes reduction of the radiative energy loss. On the other hand, the chromo-electromagnetic field fluctuations present in the QGP lead to collisional energy gain of the heavy quark. The net effect of the thermal gluon absorption and field fluctuations is a reduction of the total energy loss of the heavy quark, prominent at the lower momenta. We consider both kind of the energy gains along with the usual losses, and compute the nuclear modification factor ($R_{AA}$) of heavy mesons, viz., $D$ and $B$ mesons. The calculations have been compared with the experimental measurements in Au-Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200$ GeV from STAR and PHENIX experiments at the RHIC and Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 2.76$ TeV and $5.02$ TeV from CMS and ALICE experiments at the LHC. We find a significant effect of the total energy gain due to thermal gluon absorption and field fluctuations on heavy flavour suppression, especially at the lower transverse momenta.

description: College offers to several hundred thousand young men and women in the United States the richest experiences that our civilization has to give. For four years these students are largely freed from the stress and strain of the work-a-day world. They live in what may correctly be termed utopia. To do this costs society a high price. It removes these thousands of young people from the field of productive labor during four of their most effective years. Not only this, but it also involves society in the expenditure of from one to three thousand dollars each year for each of these students. Education, and especially a college education, costs heavily both in time and money.A survey of the aims of education as expressed by representative leaders in the field of higher education reveals varied approaches, but at the same time a general agreement as to the central purposes of education. All recognized authorities agree that this aim, whatever it may be, must emanate from the needs of the student rather than from any outside source. With one accord all admonish one to study the student in order to arrive at the aims of education. No other seat of authority may be recognized in this quest for the purpose of education.For the purposes of this study, the point of importance is the general acceptance of the development of the right attitudes as a major element in the aim of education. M.E. Harriott of the Los Angeles City Schools has summarized the place of attitudes as a factor in education when he says, "Attitudes are almost universally recognized as potent determining factors of behavior." Laymen, teachers, educationists, and psychologists may be quoted to this effect ad infinitum. Evidence of this recognition may readily be found in the daily press or one's daily contacts and in the writings of such educationists as Bagley, Bobbitt, Book, Briggs, Cameron, Clement, Colvin, Dewey, Inglis, Judd, Monroe, Ruediger, and Thorndike.

description: Die vorliegende Masterarbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Ausbildungs- und Berufssituation blinder Menschen, die sich für eine Laufbahn als DolmetscherIn entschieden haben. Nach Erläuterung spezieller Aspekte der Sinneswahrnehmung und Kommunikation stehen in dieser Arbeit die konkreten Voraussetzungen, Bedingungen und Herausforderungen, mit denen blinde DolmetscherInnen im Studium und im Berufsleben konfrontiert werden, im Fokus. Anhand von teilstrukturierten Interviews werden die persönlichen Erlebnisse und Erfahrungen vierer blinder Personen verschiedenen Alters vorgestellt und analysiert. Dabei werden auch Lösungsstrategien für die Bewältigung blindenspezifischer Hürden und Probleme angesprochen. Die Ergebnisse der erhobenen Informationen zeigen, wie Blinde mit entsprechenden Hilfestellungen erfolgreich dolmetschen können. Unterstützend werden individuell zugeschnittene Arbeitswerkzeuge im Zusammenspiel mit handelsüblichen Geräten verwendet, sowie auch die Hilfe Sehender in Anspruch genommen. Ebenso stellte sich heraus, dass blinde DolmetscherInnen im Vergleich zu ihren sehenden KollegInnen beim Erlernen der Dolmetschtätigkeit eigene Handlungsstrategien entsprechend ihren Sinnesfähigkeiten entwickeln. So können im Berufsleben blindenspezifische Arbeitsweisen bei der Bewältigung unterschiedlicher Aufgaben zum Einsatz kommen.
description: The present thesis deals with the educational and professional situation of visually impaired persons who chose a career in interpreting. Following an elaboration of special aspects of sensory perception and communication, the focus of this thesis lies on the specific prerequisites, conditions and challenges that blind interpreters face during their training and their professional life. On the basis of semi-structured interviews, the personal experiences of four blind persons of different ages are presented and analysed; solutions to overcome challenges and problems for blind persons are equally addressed. The results of the collected information show how blind people are able to interpret successfully, making use of appropriate assistance. Individual tools are used in conjunction with commercial devices and the help of seeing persons is sought. At the same time it turned out that, compared with their seeing colleagues, blind interpreters develop their own strategies according to their sensory capacities. Therefore, they can make use of specific methods to carry out different tasks of the professional life.

description: In this study, we address the problem of efficient exploration in reinforcement learning. Most common exploration approaches depend on random action selection, however these approaches do not work well in environments with sparse or no rewards. We propose Generative Adversarial Network-based Intrinsic Reward Module that learns the distribution of the observed states and sends an intrinsic reward that is computed as high for states that are out of distribution, in order to lead agent to unexplored states. We evaluate our approach in Super Mario Bros for a no reward setting and in Montezuma's Revenge for a sparse reward setting and show that our approach is indeed capable of exploring efficiently. We discuss a few weaknesses and conclude by discussing future works.

description: A key challenge in attribute value extraction (AVE) from e-commerce sites is how to handle a large number of attributes for diverse products. Although this challenge is partially addressed by a question answering (QA) approach which finds a value in product data for a given query (attribute), it does not work effectively for rare and ambiguous queries. We thus propose simple knowledge-driven query expansion based on possible answers (values) of a query (attribute) for QA-based AVE. We retrieve values of a query (attribute) from the training data to expand the query. We train a model with two tricks, knowledge dropout and knowledge token mixing, which mimic the imperfection of the value knowledge in testing. Experimental results on our cleaned version of AliExpress dataset show that our method improves the performance of AVE (+6.08 macro F1), especially for rare and ambiguous attributes (+7.82 and +6.86 macro F1, respectively).

Marketing of Tobacco

description: The trend in tobacco production varies considerably in the various types. Certain cigar types will stand small acreage increase without much price variation. In regard to the present outlook, acreage increases in Virginia fire-cured and Maryland tobacco are justified, to a small extent. Flue-cured, Durley, One-sucker and Kentucky and Tennessee fire-cured tobacco would probably improve the selling price by decreasing acreage slightly. The remaining types seem to be about in the same and position as last year and would do well to retain practically the sane acreage. Because of the differences between types of tobacco the differences in their uses, and the differences in the demand for them, it is evident that no sweeping generalizations can be made for the tobacco-growing and tobacco-manufacturing industry as a whole.

description: Diese Dissertation untersucht erstmalig die keramischen Beigaben eines Gräberfeldes im Hinblick auf Vorkommen von Fingerabdrücken und ihre Auswertung. Sie zeigt das große Potential der Fingerprintmethode für die archäologische Disziplin. Die Beschäftigung mit Papillarleisten der menschlichen Haut und deren Untersuchung im archäologischen Kontext erfordert geeignete Aufnahme- und Auswertungsmethoden. Während man sich in der Kriminalistik hauptsächlich auf Latentprints konzentrieren kann, ist der Großteil der Papillarabdrücke auf archäologischen Artefakten aus Ton anzutreffen. Obwohl die Klassifizierung der Papillarleistenmuster in beiden Disziplinen ähnlich ist, gibt es signifikante Unterschiede bei der Zielsetzung. Das österreichische Gräberfeldareal Franzhausen I und II ist bisher Mitteleuropas größtes Bestattungsareal der Früh -bis Spätbronzezeit. Es befinden sich viele Keramikgefäße unterschiedlicher Qualität unter den Grabbeigaben. Durch methodische Untersuchungen von diversen Parametern lassen sich Rückschlüsse auf das Alter, Geschlecht der Töpfer und den Herstellungsprozess der Objekte selbst ziehen. Diese Informationen können dazu beitragen, die soziale Struktur und den Produktionsprozess selbst in prähistorischer Zeit besser zu verstehen. Bei der Untersuchung der Grabbeigaben speziell in Hinblick auf Fingerabdrücke wurde der Effekt der Schrumpfung während des Trocknungs - und Brandprozesses berücksichtigt. Die hier angewandten Methoden wurden stets im Focus der archäologischen Fragestellungen ausgewählt und entwickelt. Dabei werden Parameter wie Papillarleistenbreite- und Dichte sowie die Position des Fingerprints methodisch aufgearbeitet.
description: This dissertation deals with the practical use of fingerprint methods in the context of archeological topics and shows its potential for the Archaeology. For the first time the grave goods of burials in a graveyard have been examined, particularly in regard to fingerprints. The attempt to examine patterns of papillary lines on archeological artifacts requires acquisition methods and procedures. While criminological methods of collecting papillary patterns are mainly focused on latent imprints, the majority of fingerprints encountered by archaeologists are on clay. Although the procedures for classifying patterns are similar in both disciplines, there are significant differences The Austrian graveyard Franzhausen from the Early until the Late Bronze Age, is the biggest in Central Europe so far. Within the grave goods many clay vessels of different qualities have been discovered. It is not clear why vessels with different qualities have been added to the graves of different persons. However, fingerprints provide information about the age, gender, productionprocess and other aspects of their owner. This information can help us to understand more about the social structure and the process of production of clay objects in prehistoric times. The evaluation considers the effect of the shrinkage of clay during the drying and burning process.
