As e-commerce platforms have grown in popularity, new difficulties have emerged, such as the growing use of bots—automated programs—to engage with e-commerce websites. Even though some algorithms are helpful, others are malicious and can seriously hurt e-commerce platforms by making fictitious purchases, posting fictitious evaluations, and gaining control of user accounts. Therefore, the development of more effective and precise bot identification systems is urgently needed to stop such actions. This thesis proposes a methodology for detecting bots in E-commerce using machine learning algorithms such as K-nearest neighbors, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, and Neural Network. The purpose of the research is to assess and contrast the output of these machine learning methods. The suggested approach will be based on data that is readily accessible to the public, and the study’s focus will be on the research of bots in e-commerce.
The purpose of the study is to provide an overview of bots in e-commerce, as well as information on the different kinds and traits of bots, as well as current research on bots in e-commerce and associated work on bot detection in e-commerce. The research also seeks to create a more precise and effective bot detection system as well as find critical factors in detecting bots in e-commerce.
This research is significant because it sheds light on the increasing issue of bots in e-commerce and the requirement for more effective bot detection systems. The suggested approach for using machine learning algorithms to identify bots in ecommerce can give e-commerce platforms a more precise and effective bot detection system to stop malicious bot activities. The study’s results can also be used to create a more effective bot detection system and pinpoint key elements in detecting bots in e-commerce.

The last decades have seen the evolution of industrial production into more sophisticated processes. The development of specialized, high-end machines has increased the importance of predictive maintenance of mechanical systems to produce high-quality goods and avoid machine breakdowns. Predictive maintenance has two main objectives: to classify the current status of a machine component and to predict the maintenance interval by estimating its remaining useful life (RUL). Nowadays, both objectives are covered by machine learning and deep learning approaches and require large training datasets that are often not available. One possible solution may be transfer learning, where the knowledge of a larger dataset is transferred to a smaller one. This thesis is primarily concerned with transfer learning for predictive maintenance for fault classification and RUL estimation. The first part presents the state-of-the-art machine learning techniques with a focus on techniques applicable to predictive maintenance tasks (Chapter 2). This is followed by a presentation of the machine tool background and current research that applies the previously explained machine learning techniques to predictive maintenance tasks (Chapter 3). One novelty of this thesis is that it introduces a new intermediate domain that represents data by focusing on the relevant information to allow the data to be used on different domains without losing relevant information (Chapter 4). The proposed solution is optimized for rotating elements. Therefore, the presented intermediate domain creates different layers by focusing on the fault frequencies of the rotating elements. Another novelty of this thesis is its semi and unsupervised transfer learning-based fault classification approach for different component types under different process conditions (Chapter 5). It is based on the intermediate domain utilized by a convolutional neural network (CNN). In addition, a novel unsupervised transfer learning loss function is presented based on the maximum mean discrepancy (MMD), one of the state-of-the-art algorithms. It extends the MMD by considering the intermediate domain layers; therefore, it is called layered maximum mean discrepancy (LMMD). Another novelty is an RUL estimation transfer learning approach for different component types based on the data of accelerometers with low sampling rates (Chapter 6). It applies the feature extraction concepts of the classification approach: the presented intermediate domain and the convolutional layers. The features are then used as input for a long short-term memory (LSTM) network. The transfer learning is based on fixed feature extraction, where the trained convolutional layers are taken over. Only the LSTM network has to be trained again. The intermediate domain supports this transfer learning type, as it should be similar for different component types. In addition, it enables the practical usage of accelerometers with low sampling rates during transfer learning, which is an absolute novelty. All presented novelties are validated in detailed case studies using the example of bearings (Chapter 7). In doing so, their superiority over state-of-the-art approaches is demonstrated.
Maschinelles Lernen verändert zusehends die Arbeitswelt. Auch in der Produktionsplanung und -steuerung finden sich vielversprechende Anwendungsfälle. In diesem Beitrag sollen ausgewählte Anwendungsbereiche und Ansätze vorgestellt werden, die anhand einer umfangreichen Untersuchung wissenschaftlicher Veröffentlichungen identifiziert wurden.

The research employed HPTLC Pro System and other HPTLC instruments from CAMAG® to conduct various laboratory tests, aiming to compile a database for subsequent analyses. Utilizing MATLAB, distinct codes were developed to reveal patterns within analyzed biomasses and pyrolysis oils (sewage sludge, fermentation residue, paper sludge, and wood). Through meticulous visual and numerical analysis, shared characteristics among different biomasses and their respective pyrolysis oils were revealed, showcasing close similarities within each category. Notably, minimal disparity was observed in fermentation residue and wood biomasses with a similarity coefficient of 0.22. Similarly, for pyrolysis oils, the minimal disparity was found in fermentation residues 1 and 3, with a disparity coefficient of 1.41. Despite higher disparity coefficients in certain results, specific biomasses and pyrolysis oils, such as fermentation residue and sewage sludge, exhibited close similarities, with disparity coefficients of 0.18 and 0.55, respectively. The database, derived from triplicate experimentation, now serves as a valuable resource for rapid analysis of newly acquired raw materials. Additionally, the utility of HPTLC PRO as an investigation tool, enabling simultaneous analysis of up to five samples, was emphasized, although areas for improvement in derivatization methods were identified.
Organizations striving to achieve success in the long term must have a positive brand image which will have direct implications on the business. In the face of the rising cyber threats and intense competition, maintaining a threat-free domain is an important aspect of preserving that image in today's internet world. Domain names are often near-synonyms for brand names for numerous companies. There are likely thousands of domains that try to impersonate the big companies in a bid to trap unsuspecting users, usually falling prey to attacks such as phishing or watering hole. Because domain names are important for organizations for running their business online, they are also particularly vulnerable to misuse by malicious actors. So, how can you ensure that your domain name is protected while still protecting your brand identity? Brand Monitoring, for example, may assist. The term "Brand Monitoring" applies only to keep tabs on an organization's brand performance, reception, and overall online presence through various online channels and platforms [1]. There has been a rise in the need of maintaining one's domain clear of any linkages to malicious activities as the threat environment has expanded. Since attackers are targeting domain names of organizations and luring unsuspecting users to visit malicious websites, domain monitoring becomes an important aspect. Another important aspect of brand abuse is how attackers leverage brand logos in creating fake and phishing web pages. In this Master Thesis, we try to solve the problem of classification of impersonated domains using rule-based and machine learning algorithms and automation of domain monitoring. We first use a rule-based classifier and Machine Learning algorithms to classify the domains gathered into two buckets – "Parked" and "Non-Parked". In the project's second phase, we will deploy object detection models (Scale Invariant Feature Transform - SIFT and Multi-Template Matching – MTM) to detect brand logos from the domains of interest.
