Existing datasets often lack the reproducible and measurable data needed to adequately quantify these effects. To address this gap, a new multimodal dataset (MuFoRa) has been collected under controlled adverse weather conditions at the CARISSMA facility, using a stereo camera and two solid-state LiDAR sensors. This dataset is used to quantitatively assess sensor degradation by measuring the entropy for images and the number of inliers for point clouds on a spherical target. These metrics are used to evaluate the impact on performance under varying conditions of fog (5 to 150 m visibility) and rain (20 to 100 mm/h intensity) at different distances (5 to 50 m). Additionally, two calibration target detection approaches - Deep-learning and Hough-based - are evaluated to achieve accurate sensor alignment. The contributions include the introduction of a new dataset focused on fog and rain, the evaluation of sensor degradation, and an improved calibration approach. This dataset is intended to support the development of more robust sensor fusion and object detection algorithms for autonomous driving.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FadlSchoenBehretetal.2025, author = {Fadl, Islam and Sch{\"o}n, Torsten and Behret, Valentino and Brandmeier, Thomas and Palme, Frank and Helmer, Thomas}, title = {Environment Setup and Model Benchmark of the MuFoRa Dataset}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 20th International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications - (Volume 3)}, editor = {Bashford-Rogers, Thomas and Meneveaux, Daniel and Ammi, Mehdi and Ziat, Mounia and J{\"a}nicke, Stefan and Purchase, Helen and Radeva, Petia and Furnari, Antonino and Bouatouch, Kadi and Sousa, A.

This work presents MuFoRa a novel, controllable, and measured multimodal dataset recorded at CARISSMA's indoor test facility, specifically designed to assess perceptual difficulties in foggy and rainy environments. The dataset bridges research gap in the public benchmarking datasets, where quantifiable weather parameters are lacking. The proposed dataset comprises synchronized data from two sensor modalities: RGB stereo cameras and LiDAR sensors, captured under varying intensities of fog and rain. The dataset incorporates synchronized meteorological annotations, such as visibility through fog and precipitation levels of rain, and the study contributes a detailed explanation of the diverse weather effects observed during data collection in the methods section. The dataset's utility is demonstrated through a baseline evaluation example, asse ssing the performance degradation of state-of-the-art YOLO11 and DETR 2D object detection algorithms under controlled and quantifiable adverse weather conditions. The public release of the dataset (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.14175611) facilitates various benchmarking and quantitative assessments of advanced multimodal computer vision and deep learning models under the challenging conditions of fog and rain.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchmittReumSummetal.2024, author = {Schmitt, David and Reum, Tobias and Summ, Thorsten and Trinkl, Christoph and Schrag, Tobias}, title = {Investigation of the Flexibility Potential by Decoupling Building Mass and Room Temperature}, booktitle = {International Sustainable Energy Conference - Proceedings}, editor = {Fink, Christian and Brunner, Christoph}, publisher = {TIB Open Publishing}, address = {Hannover}, issn = {2976-2030}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.52825/isec.v1i.1165}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Using the thermal building mass as a thermal storage received increasing attention in research during recent years. Due to the large mass of concrete, it offers a large storage capacity and thus a high potential for flexibility. However, passive heat losses during cool down of a thermally activated building influence room temperature and thus limit its flexibility potential. In this contribution a multi-layer activation concept was investigated which thermally decouples the building mass and room air. The study aims to analyse the cool down of a thermally activated building in terms of different charging parameters while considering other heat sources such as solar gains. A dynamic building simulation of a demonstration building was set-up and compared to simulative studies from literature to proof the validity of its dynamic behaviour. In the simulation model the room temperature could be kept above 19 °C between 100 - 190 h. However, when charging the building structure quickly, room temperatures above 24 °C are reached easily. Considering other heat sources such as solar gains, advanced control algorithms are required for efficient operation of the heating system.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RieglGaullBeitelschmidt2022, author = {Riegl, Peter and Gaull, Andreas and Beitelschmidt, Michael}, title = {Parameterization of automated driving functions in virtual environments based on characteristic test scenarios}, booktitle = {2022 IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium (IV)}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway}, isbn = {978-1-6654-8821-1}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1109/IV51971.2022.9827407}, pages = {511 -- 518}, year = {2022}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KubaschinskiBaruthTetzlaffetal.2022, author = {Kubaschinski, Paul and Baruth, Albin and Tetzlaff, Ulrich and Altenbach, Holm and Waltz, Manuela}, title = {Untersuchungen zur Ermittlung der zyklischen Kennwerte von d{\"u}nnem Elektroblech im Rahmen der rechnerischen Lebensdauerabsch{\"a}tzung}, pages = {BF-2022-014}, booktitle = {Betriebsfestigkeit - Wissensmanagement und Methodenentwicklung entlang der Wertsch{\"o}pfungskette}, publisher = {DVM}, address = {Berlin}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.48447/BF-2022-014}, pages = {163 -- 178}, year = {2022}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{KeimTetzlaffElger2020, author = {Keim, Simon and Tetzlaff, Ulrich and Elger, Gordon}, title = {The influence of different-sized Ni micro- and nanopowders on the processing and microstructural properties of Sn-Ag-Cu-solder with low Ag content}, booktitle = {Proceedings: IEEE 70th Electronic Components and Technology Conference, ECTC 2020}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway}, isbn = {978-1-7281-6180-8}, issn = {2377-5726}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1109/ECTC32862.2020.00312}, pages = {2005 -- 2012}, year = {2020}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BlasiFernandesNavarroGeversetal.2019, author = {Blasi, Tha{\´i}s M. and Fernandes, Thelma S.
