We are looking for a highly motivated master’s student to work on an innovative project for their master’s thesis as soon as possible. The project involves investigating existing decentralized oracle networks (DONs) for verifiable credential (VC) verification and evaluating their integration with Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) infrastructure.
This thesis focuses on developing a Transcriptome-Language Model (TLM) to effectively bridge the modality gap between transcriptomic data and natural language text. You will explore advanced models for transcriptomic data representation, and cross-modal learning techniques aligning transcriptomic and textual modalities. This model will be evaluated in tasks such as zero-shot cell property classification and text ...

Technical support is an essential aspect of various industries, e.g., to provide help with maintaining machinery and IT systems. However, diagnosing error messages and faults in complex technologies can be a time-consuming and challenging task. The maintainer has to search through the long documentation booklets for the technology in order to find a solution or ...
The innovative integration of Mixed Reality and Large Language Models can lead to highly interactive instructional MR agents. Utilized as automated instructors, these MR agents have the potential to significantly enhance traditional instruction manuals by providing visual guidance. For instance, they can illustrate the next required actions in practical tasks such as tightening screws in ...
The increasing connectivity of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) has elevated the need for robust cybersecurity measures. However, evaluating the effectiveness of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) in ICS environments remains fragmented and inconsistent. This thesis addresses this challenge by developing a systematic, modular benchmarking environment that enables reproducible and standardized evaluation of machine learning-based IDS across ...
The goal of this thesis is to design, implement, and evaluate a sensor-based maintenance bot that uses Large Language Models (LLMs) to support predictive maintenance and decision-making. The bot should be capable of retrieving, analyzing, and reasoning over time series sensor data as well as unstructured maintenance-related documentation (e.g., technical manuals, incident reports). The result ...
In modern manufacturing, data plays a crucial role in optimizing processes, enhancing efficiency, and enabling interoperability across different systems. However, data models in manufacturing are often heterogeneous, proprietary, and lack standardization, making data sharing and integration challenging. The FAIR principles – Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability – provide a structured framework to improve data ...

Development of a hybrid Intrusion Detection System for EV Charging Stations
Conveying information in a tour traditionally either requires a real human or an audio recording. However, the human guide might not always be available and the quality in the tours varies. With audio recordings, extra care has to be taken to convey to the user which element is currently being talked about since there are ...
Learning content by heart can be facilitated by the method of Loci. In this mnemonic technique, the learner converts pieces of information into mental imagery. The imagined representations are then anchored in a location. If the learner then traverses a path through this location, the information can be remembered by recalling the mental imagery. However, ...
