In many cases, these data are incomplete, imprecise, and uncertain. An illustrative example is the OpenStreetMap project, where users all over the world contribute data on a more or less precise and complete level. This research shows whether these data are suited to support management decisions. A real-world example demonstrates the extent to which location decisions of a fast-food restaurant chain can be reproduced using techniques from the field of advanced analytics. The problem deals with classifying potential locations and comparing the predicted locations with the actual ones. The data used for this example are retrieved from the OpenStreetMap project. We find that the OpenStreetMap data are generally suitable for predicting location decisions. However, the choice of the data analytics technique is crucial. In our illustrative example case, boosted trees resulted in the best forecast, thereby outperforming neural networks, classic trees, and logit models.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Sassmannshausen, author = {Saßmannshausen, Sean Patrick}, title = {Unternehmertum als Schl{\"u}ssel der sozio-{\"o}konomischen Entwicklung}, series = {Entrepreneurship \& Intrapreneurship - Same or Different? 04th and 5th of April 2019, Regensburg}, booktitle = {Entrepreneurship \& Intrapreneurship - Same or Different? 04th and 5th of April 2019, Regensburg}, editor = {Faltermeier, Johann Fabian and Justus, Xenia}, publisher = {RAM-Verlag}, address = {L{\"u}denscheid}, isbn = {978-3-942303-86-6}, pages = {3 -- 14}, abstract = {Vor dem Hintergrund von Innovationsdruck und drohenden Strukturbr{\"u}chen gewinnt das „Unternehmertum in der Unternehmung" (kurz Intrapreneurship) zunehmend an Bedeutung.

Second, these hypotheses are tested with a large and representative cross national data set, i.e. data from the European Social Survey (ESS). Third, our study is two-level comparative: The sample includes entrepreneurs, managers of sme's and large incorporations, and a representative number of populations excluding the two groups mentioned before. By this, we can compare ethics in attitudes and behavior between those three groups of profession as well as we can test for differences in ethical attitudes and behavior across 20 European countries.

In order to un-cover the weaknesses of knowledge and technology transfer, an effective measurement and indicator system is required. For this reason, research activities in this area have increased recently, especially funded by state institutions such as the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). Relevant publications and studies contain a large number of proposals for key figures and indicators. These are intended to provide as comprehensive a picture of the transfer process as possible. The point of view of the transfer provider, i.e. the university, is often in the foreground. Until the present moment, transfer recipients such as economy and society have received less attention. The analysis of these sub-systems was part of the cross-university research project 'Transfer_i: Transfer Indicators'. In this paper we describe an effective approach for mapping, measuring, and managing of transfer pro-cesses by using key performance indicators (KPI). Therefore, a systematic analysis and description of the (research-based) transfer processes at the subsystem level were carried out. The main causal rela-tionships in knowledge and technology transfer were determined for each sub-system, e.g. state, re-search, economy, society.

Even high-quality learning materials may fail to engage learners if they do not align with students' personal preferences and learning styles. Identifying these learner preferences, therefore, emerges as a critical challenge. Objectives: This paper presents ongoing work within a larger research project aimed at employing artificial intelligence to recommend optimal learning path for students in specific courses. Beyond mere optimization, the goal is to ensure the best possible fit between learning materials and individual learners. Sample \& Methods: A total of 27 students from technical degree programs took part in this survey. All participation was voluntary, and data were handled in full compliance with GDPR regulations. Although our broader project integrates fine-grained learning analytics from Moodle, the present abstract focuses exclusively on the self-report questionnaire results. Participants completed five instruments: 1. Index of Learning Styles (ILS) 2. LIST-K (Learning and Study Strategies Inventory - Short version) 3. BFI-10 (Big Five Inventory - 10 items) 4. Custom Preferences Instrument, capturing preferences for specific learning elements (e.g. instructional videos, lecture notes, summaries) and basic demographic data 5. Motivational Value Systems Questionnaire (MVSQ), piloted last semester to assess value orientations and motivational drivers Results: Preliminary analyses of the questionnaire data reveal: - Learning Styles (ILS): The majority lean toward the visual learning type (M = 5.740, SD = 3.430). - Learning Strategies (LIST-K): High scores on metacognitive strategies (M = 3.000; SD = 0.520) and collaboration with peers (M = 3.190; SD = 0.540). - Preferred Learning Elements: Summaries, overviews, and self-checks are most favored. - Value Orientations (MVSQ): Students are primarily driven by the pursuit of personal achievement (M = 4.400; SD = 11.140). Conclusion \& Significance: By integrating these five standardized questionnaires, we gain valuable insights into student learning preferences—insights that complement our Moodle analytics in the broader project. Observed trends suggest that learning materials should be concise and designed to facilitate peer interaction and knowledge deepening. These findings will guide the refinement of our AI-driven recommendation engine, enhancing its ability to deliver personalized learning paths that boost both engagement and effectiveness.}, language = {en} }
