Completed Student Theses

Student work at the CAI typically has a method-oriented focus and contributes its own research in the context of an exciting application. We are very proud of the achievements of our students, who regularly outdo themselves, achieve excellent results, and often contribute to the latest research through their publications, as also shown through various prices. In the following, we briefly present selected recent works and the archive of theses in Bachelor, Master, PhD and further education since 2013. Details can be found in the linked full texts, if available.

Example Student Theses

Neural Network-based Image Synthesis to Improve Automatic Segmentation of Medical Images for COVID Diagnosis

Bachelor Thesis (Computer Science)

The training process of a CNN for the classification of CT scans requires a valid and coherent set of training data. This thesis deals with this issue of dataset variability by enhancing PrepNet, a DNN architecture that minimizes the cross-dataset variance of CT scans taken from COVID-19 patients. (PDF 14,5 MB)

Text Classification of Service Desk Tickets

Master Thesis (Data Science)

Manual ticket routing within a large organization is difficult and prone to error. Even service desk agents struggle with finding the affected services and support groups. To help these central support units assign tickets, statistical models and neural networks were trained based on actual historical support cases from a medium-sized internationally active private bank.

Active Scene Understanding from Image Sequences for Next-Generation Computer Vision

Bachelor Thesis (Computer science)

This work explores approaches to eliminate shortcomings in the field of digital object recogntion through synthetic 3D scenes and render images from 36 angles to allow computers to have a deeper understanding of a scene. (PDF 13,2 MB)

Reinforcement Learning in a Multi-Agent System for Train Scheduling

Project Thesis (Computer Science)

This work is a contribution to the Flatland Challenge, a competition published by the Swiss Federal Railways and the crowdsourcing platform AICrowd, which aims to explore new ways to bring more trains onto its network through machine learning technologies such as reinforcement Learning. (PDF 3,2 MB)

Recurrent Neural Networks for Speaker Recognition

Project Thesis (computer science)

In this work, the suitability of Recurrent Neural Networks is tested, in particular Long Short Term Memory Networks and their combination with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN's) in order to examine the problem area of Speaker Recognition. (PDF 3,0 MB)
