description: With the growing availability of large-scale datasets, and the popularization of affordable storage and computational capabilities, the energy consumed by AI is becoming a growing concern. To address this issue, in recent years, studies have focused on demonstrating how AI energy efficiency can be improved by tuning the model training strategy. Nevertheless, how modifications applied to datasets can impact the energy consumption of AI is still an open question. To fill this gap, in this exploratory study, we evaluate if data-centric approaches can be utilized to improve AI energy efficiency. To achieve our goal, we conduct an empirical experiment, executed by considering 6 different AI algorithms, a dataset comprising 5,574 data points, and two dataset modifications (number of data points and number of features). Our results show evidence that, by exclusively conducting modifications on datasets, energy consumption can be drastically reduced (up to 92.16%), often at the cost of a negligible or even absent accuracy decline. As additional introductory results, we demonstrate how, by exclusively changing the algorithm used, energy savings up to two orders of magnitude can be achieved. In conclusion, this exploratory investigation empirically demonstrates the importance of applying data-centric techniques to improve AI energy efficiency. Our results call for a research agenda that focuses on data-centric techniques, to further enable and democratize Green AI.

description: In recent years, 5G network systems start to offer communication infrastructure for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, especially for health care service pro-viders. In smart health care systems, edge computing enabled Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is an innovative technology to provide online health care monitor-ing facility to patients. Here, energy consumption, along with extending the lifespan of biosensor network, is a key concern. In this contribution, a Chicken Swarm Optimization algorithm, based on Energy Efficient Multi-objective clus-tering scheme is applied in the context of IoMT system. An effective fitness func-tion is designed for cluster head selection., using multiple objectives, such as re-sidual energy, queuing delay, communication cost, link quality and node centrali-ty. Simulated outcomes of the proposed scheme are compared with the existing schemes in terms of parameters such as cluster formation time, energy consump-tion, network lifetime, throughput and propagation delay.

description: We study the quantum dynamics of Josephson junction arrays. We find isolated groups of low-entanglement eigenstates, that persist even when the Josephson interaction is strong enough to destroy the organization of the spectrum in multiplets, and a perturbative description is no longer possible. These eigenstates provide a weak ergodicity breaking, and are reminiscent of the quantum scars. Due to the presence of these eigenstates, initializing with a charge-density-wave state, the system does not thermalize and the charge-density-wave order persists for long times. Considering global ergodicity probes, we find that the system tends towards more ergodicity for increasing system size: The parameter range where the bulk of the eigenstates look nonergodic shrinks for increasing system size. We study two geometries, a one-dimensional chain and a two-leg ladder. In the latter case, adding a magnetic flux makes the system more ergodic.

description: Controlling the polymorph formation in organic semiconductor thin films by the choice of substrate and deposition temperature is a key factor for targeted device performance. Small molecular semiconductors such as the quadrupolar donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) type squaraine compounds allow both solution and vapor phase deposition methods. A prototypical anilino squaraine with branched butyl chains as terminal functionalization (SQIB) has been considered for photovoltaic applications due to its broad absorption within the visible to deep-red spectral range. Its opto-electronic properties depend on the formation of the two known polymorphs adopting a monoclinic and orthorhombic crystal phase. Both phases emerge with a strongly preferred out-of-plane and rather random in-plane orientation in spincasted thin films depending on subsequent thermal annealing. Upon vapor deposition on dielectric and conductive substrates, such as silicon dioxide, potassium chloride, graphene and gold, the polymorph expression depends on the choice of growth substrate. In all cases the same pronounced out-of-plane orientation is adopted, but with a surface templated in-plane alignment in case of crystalline substrates. Combining X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, ellipsometry and polarized spectro-microscopy we identify the processing dependent evolution of the crystal phases, correlating morphology and molecular orientations within the textured SQIB films.

description: Frauen sind in Österreich tendenziell stärker armuts- und sozial ausgrenzungsgefährdet als Männer. Die in dieser Magisterarbeit nachgezeichnete theoretische Auseinandersetzung mit den Entstehungszusammenhängen von Armut dreht sich wesentlich darum, dass ein gerade für Frauen diskriminierendes Geschlechterverhältnis als wesentliche strukturelle Ursache für Frauenarmut erkennbar ist und nicht so sehr das individuelle Verschulden von Frauen. Unter Verwendung der Kritischen Diskursanalyse nach Siegfried Jäger wird in dieser Arbeit empirisch nachvollzogen, wie Frauenarmut im medialen Diskurs ausgewählter österreichischer Tageszeitungen dargestellt wird. Die Ergebnisse der Analyse zeigen, dass der Aspekt Erwerbsarbeit eine zentrale Rolle in der Thematisierung von Armut von Frauen in Österreich einnimmt. Die Analyse macht auch deutlich, dass in der Berichterstattung strukturelle Ursachen für die Armutsgefährdung von Frauen Berücksichtigung finden, Maßnahmen zur Lösung aber nicht auf gesellschaftlicher Ebene verortet werden, sondern die individuelle Verantwortung von Frauen betreffen.

description: This paper presents a novel end-to-end method for the problem of skeleton-based unsupervised human action recognition. We propose a new architecture with a convolutional autoencoder that uses graph Laplacian regularization to model the skeletal geometry across the temporal dynamics of actions. Our approach is robust towards viewpoint variations by including a self-supervised gradient reverse layer that ensures generalization across camera views. The proposed method is validated on NTU-60 and NTU-120 large-scale datasets in which it outperforms all prior unsupervised skeleton-based approaches on the cross-subject, cross-view, and cross-setup protocols. Although unsupervised, our learnable representation allows our method even to surpass a few supervised skeleton-based action recognition methods.

description: Free-energy landscapes for short peptides -- specifically for variants of the pH Low Insertion Peptide (pHLIP) -- in the heterogeneous environment of a lipid bilayer or cell membrane are constructed, taking into account a set of dominant interactions and the conformational preferences of the peptide backbone. Our methodology interprets broken internal H-bonds along the backbone of a polypeptide as statistically interacting quasiparticles, activated from the helix reference state. The favored conformation depends on the local environment (ranging from polar to nonpolar), specifically on the availability of external H-bonds (with $\mathrm{H_2O}$ molecules or lipid headgroups) to replace internal H-bonds. The dominant side-chain contribution is accounted for by residue-specific transfer free energies between polar and nonpolar environments. The free-energy landscape is sensitive to the level of pH in the aqueous environment surrounding the membrane. For high pH, we identify pathways of descending free energy that suggest a coexistence of membrane-adsorbed peptides with peptides in solution. A drop in pH raises the degree of protonation of negatively charged residues and thus increases the hydrophobicity of peptide segments near the C terminus. For low pH, we identify insertion pathways between the membrane-adsorbed state and a stable trans-membrane state with the C terminus having crossed the membrane.

description: We investigate the electronic band structure of graphene on a series of two-dimensional magnetic transition-metal phosphorus trichalcogenide monolayers, MPX$_3$ with M={Mn,Fe,Ni,Co} and X={S,Se}, with first-principles calculations. A symmetry-based model Hamiltonian is employed to extract orbital parameters and sublattice resolved proximity-induced exchange couplings ($λ_{\textrm{ex}}^\textrm{A}$ and $λ_{\textrm{ex}}^\textrm{B}$) from the low-energy Dirac bands of the proximitized graphene. Depending on the magnetic phase of the MPX$_3$ layer (ferromagnetic and three antiferromagnetic ones), completely different Dirac dispersions can be realized with exchange splittings ranging from 0 to 10~meV. Surprisingly, not only the magnitude of the exchange couplings depends on the magnetic phase, but also the global sign and the type. Important, one can realize uniform ($λ_{\textrm{ex}}^\textrm{A} \approx λ_{\textrm{ex}}^\textrm{B}$) and staggered ($λ_{\textrm{ex}}^\textrm{A} \approx -λ_{\textrm{ex}}^\textrm{B}$) exchange couplings in graphene. From selected cases, we find that the interlayer distance, as well as a transverse electric field are efficient tuning knobs for the exchange splittings of the Dirac bands. More specifically, decreasing the interlayer distance by only about 10\%, a giant 5-fold enhancement of proximity exchange is found, while applying few V/nm of electric field, provides tunability of proximity exchange by tens of percent. We have also studied the dependence on the Hubbard $U$ parameter and find it to be weak. Moreover, we find that the effect of SOC on the proximitized Dirac dispersion is negligible compared to the exchange coupling.

description: We study the prediction of maximal zeros of the Dirac mass matrix on neutrino phenomenology and baryon asymmetry of the universe (BAU) within the framework of an inverse seesaw ISS $(2,3)$. We try to find the origin of the allowed two zero textures of the Dirac mass matrix from $S_{4}$ flavor symmetry. ISS $(2,3)$ model contains two pairs of quasi-Dirac particles and one sterile state in the keV scale along with three active neutrinos. The decays of the quasi-Dirac pairs create lepton asymmetry that can be converted to baryon asymmetry of the universe by the sphaleron process. Thus, BAU can be explained in this framework through leptogenesis. We study BAU in all the two zero textures of the Dirac mass matrix. The viabilities of the textures within the framework have been verified with the latest cosmology data on BAU.

description: High-precision vehicle positioning is key to the implementation of modern driving systems in urban environments. Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) carrier phase measurements can provide millimeter- to centimeter-level positioning, provided that the integer ambiguities are correctly resolved. Abundant code measurements are often used to facilitate integer ambiguity resolution (IAR), however, they suffer from signal blockage and multipath in urban canyons. In this contribution, a lidar-aided instantaneous ambiguity resolution method is proposed. Lidar measurements, in the form of 3D keypoints, are generated by a learning-based point cloud registration method using a pre-built HD map and integrated with GNSS observations in a mixed measurement model to produce precise float solutions, which in turn increase the ambiguity success rate. Closed-form expressions of the ambiguity variance matrix and the associated Ambiguity Dilution of Precision (ADOP) are developed to provide a priori evaluation of such lidar-aided ambiguity resolution performance. Both analytical and experimental results show that the proposed method enables successful instantaneous IAR with limited GNSS satellites and frequencies, leading to centimeter-level vehicle positioning.

description: The quantum electrodynamic (QED) description of light-and-matter interaction is one of the most fundamental theories of physics and has been shown to be in excellent agreement with experimental results. Specifically, measurements of the electronic magnetic moment (or $g$ factor) of highly charged ions (HCI) in Penning traps can provide a stringent probe for QED, testing the Standard model in the strongest electromagnetic fields. When studying the difference of isotopes, even the intricate effects stemming from the nucleus can be resolved and tested as, due to the identical electron configuration, many common QED contributions do not have to be considered. Experimentally however, this becomes quickly limited, particularly by the precision of the ion masses or the achievable magnetic field stability. Here we report on a novel measurement technique that overcomes both of these limitations by co-trapping two HCIs in a Penning trap and measuring the difference of their $g$ factors directly. The resulting correlation of magnetic field fluctuations leads to drastically higher precision. We use a dual Ramsey-type measurement scheme with the ions locked on a common magnetron orbit, separated by only a few hundred micrometres, to extract the coherent spin precession frequency difference. We have measured the isotopic shift of the bound electron $g$ factor of the neon isotopes of $^{20}$Ne$^{9+}$ and $^{22}$Ne$^{9+}$ to 0.56 parts-per-trillion ($5.6 \cdot 10^{-13}$) precision relative to their $g$ factors, which is an improvement of more than two orders of magnitude compared to state-of-the-art techniques. This resolves the QED contribution to the nuclear recoil for the very first time and accurately validates the corresponding theory. Furthermore, the agreement with theory allows setting constraints for a fifth-force, resulting from Higgs-portal-type dark-matter interactions.

description: In den letzten Jahren erlebt Rechtspopulismus in Europa einen Aufschwung und beinahe täglich erreichen uns Aussagen von Politiker*innen, die diese Tendenz nicht nur unterstreichen sondern zusätzlich anfachen. Im Gegensatz dazu stehen die Lehrpläne an Österreichs Schulen, die einen Unterricht vorsehen, der über das Thema Nationalsozia-lismus informiert und menschenverachtendem Umgang gegensteuern soll. Orientierungs-kompetenz und Persönlichkeitsbildung für Schüler*innen sind dabei wichtige Wert-maßstäbe. In Deutschland beschäftigen sich bereits in den 1970er Jahren Untersuchungen mit dem „Lernprozess Christen Juden“, während in Österreich erst Anfang der 1990er Jahre eine Auseinandersetzung mit Lehrplänen und Schulbüchern dazu einsetzt. Eine Reihe von Untersuchungen belegt in den folgenden Jahren die Rezeption bzw. Abwehrmechanismen der Schüler*innen. Eine groß angelegte Studie 2014 zum Thema Mauthausen beleuchtet das Unterrichtsgeschehen näher, hat jedoch das Fach Religion nicht im Blick. Aber auch Religionslehrer*innen kommen ihrem Bildungsauftrag nach und halten sowohl in der Sekundarstufe I als auch in der Sekundarstufe II ihren Unterricht zum Thema Nationalsozialismus ab. Viele von ihnen beziehen dabei kleine Erinnerungsorte in das Unterrichtsgeschehen ein. Die vorliegende Studie befasst sich nun mit den Unterrichts-konzepten, die Religionslehrer*innen entwickeln, damit Erinnerungslernen gelingen kann. Im Fokus stehen erstmals die Lehrpersonen selbst mit ihren persönlichen und fachlichen Zugängen zum Thema.
description: In recent years right-wing populism has experienced an upswing in Europe and almost every day we hear statements from politicians who not only underline this tendency but also foment it. In contrast, the curricula in Austria's schools provide instruction that forces information on the subject of National Socialism and is intended to counteract inhuman behaviour. Orientation competence and personality development for pupils are important value benchmarks. In Germany studies on the "learning process of Christians and Jews" began as early as the 1970s, while in Austria it was not until the early 1990s that curricula and textbooks were discussed. In the following years a series of studies proved the reception and defence mechanisms of the pupils. A large-scale study in 2014 on the subject of Mauthausen sheds more light on what is happening in the classroom, but does not focus on religious education. But teachers of religious education also fulfill their educational mandate and teach the issue of National Socialism at both lower and upper secondary level. Many of them include small memory places in their teaching. The present study now deals with the teaching concepts that teachers of religious education develop so that “memorial learning” can succeed. For the first time, the focus is on the teachers themselves with their personal and professional approaches to the subject.

description: In this work, a novel highly fabrication tolerant polarization beam splitter (PBS) is presented on an InP platform. To achieve the splitting, we combine the Pockels effect and the plasma dispersion effect in a symmetric 1x2 Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI). One p-i-n phase shifter of the MZI is driven in forward bias to exploit the plasma dispersion effect and modify the phase of both the TE and TM mode. The other arm of the MZI is driven in reverse bias to exploit the Pockels effect which affects only the TE mode. By adjusting the voltages of the two phase shifters, a different interference condition can be set for the TE and the TM modes thereby splitting them at the output of the MZI. By adjusting the voltages, the very tight fabrication tolerances known for fully passive PBS are eased. The experimental results show that an extinction ratio better than 15 dB and an on-chip loss of 3.5 dB over the full C-band (1530-1565nm) are achieved.

description: Filament identification became a key step to tackling fundamental problems in various fields of Astronomy. Nevertheless, existing filament identification algorithms are critically user-dependent and require individual parametrization. In this study, we aimed at adapting the neural networks approach to elaborate the best model for filament identification that would not require fine-tuning for a given astronomical map. First, we created training samples based on the most commonly used maps of the interstellar medium obtained by Planck and Herschel space telescopes and the atomic hydrogen all-sky survey HI4PI. We used the Rolling Hough Transform, a widely used algorithm for filament identification, to produce training outputs. In the next step, we trained different neural network models and discovered that a combination of the Mask R-CNN and U-Net architecture is most appropriate for filament identification and determination of their orientation angles. We showed that neural network training might be performed efficiently on a relatively small training sample of only around 100 maps. Our approach eliminates the parametrization bias and facilitates filament identification and angle determination on large data sets.

description: In this paper, we investigate the retrievability of datasets and publications in a real-life Digital Library (DL). The measure of retrievability was originally developed to quantify the influence that a retrieval system has on the access to information. Retrievability can also enable DL engineers to evaluate their search engine to determine the ease with which the content in the collection can be accessed. Following this methodology, in our study, we propose a system-oriented approach for studying dataset and publication retrieval. A speciality of this paper is the focus on measuring the accessibility biases of various types of DL items and including a metric of usefulness. Among other metrics, we use Lorenz curves and Gini coefficients to visualize the differences of the two retrievable document types (specifically datasets and publications). Empirical results reported in the paper show a distinguishable diversity in the retrievability scores among the documents of different types.

title: Rechtsakte, Zuständigkeiten und Rechtsmittel im Kultusrecht
Creators: name: Leitner, Stephan
Year: 2019

description: Kultusrecht ist ein Rechtsgebiet, dessen Rechtsquellen aus sehr unterschiedlichen Epo- chen mit einem jeweils unterschiedlichen Verständnis des Verhältnisses zwischen Staat und Religionsgesellschaften stammen. Die ältesten noch geltenden Bestimmungen stam- men aus der 2. Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts, die jüngsten aus den letzten JahrenIn dieser Zeit haben sich die verfassungsrechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen mehrmals geändert. Hinzuweisen ist insbesondere auf die Einführung der mittelbaren Bundesverwaltung mit nkrafttreten des B-VG, die Einführung der Verwaltungsgerichtsbarkeit 1. Instanz im Jahr 2014 oder auch die Ausgestaltung des in der Bundesverfassung angelegten Rechtsstaats- prinzips über einen längeren Zeitraum hinweg. Anhand dieser Rahmenbedingungen werden in dieser Arbeit die in den verschiedenen Rechtsquellen enthaltenen kultusrechtlichen Bestimmungen systematisiert und den ein- zelnen von der Rechtsordnung vorgegebenen Typen von Rechtsakten zugeordnet. Wei- ers wird untersucht, welche Behörde zur Entscheidung über welchen Rechtsakt zuständig st, sowie, welches Rechtsmittel im Einzelnen infrage kommt bzw. welche Behörde zur Entscheidung über dieses Rechtsmittel jeweils zuständig ist. Gegenstand der Untersuchung ist schließlich auch, welche Personen bzw. welche Organe dieser Personen jeweils Parteistellung besitzen und daher gegebenenfalls zur Erhebung eines Rechtsmittels befugt sind.
