Recent Topics

The following topics are available within the current application window.

Topic 1: Process Inventory Visualization (Bachelor/Master) 

Description: A part of Process Mining focuses on the discovery of process models from event data. In order to support monitoring on topic, capabilities are needed that not only show the process model itself, but also the inventory of cases running through the process. Research problem: So far, process mining has missed the opportunity to systematically show the current state and the speed of the cases running through the process. The aim of this thesis is to develop a corresponding visualization concept and prototypically implement it for complex event data that is available in graph databases such as Neo4j.

Topic 2: SQL Database Obfuscation (Bachelor/Master) 

Description: Databases play an important role as data sources for process mining. A key challenge is making such databases available for research, because private or secret information must not be disclosed. Research problem: So far, there are different tools available that can help to anonymize or obfuscate information in databases. The aim of this research is to systematically analyze the capabilities of existing tools and requirements of sharing databases for process mining. Based on this analysis, a tool will be developed that is able to generate a synthetic database with load data in such a way that private information is obfuscated, but structural properties of the process-related data are preserved.

Topic 3: Process Baselining (Bachelor/Master) 

Description: Process improvement has to build on a solid understanding of a process and the infrastructure that supports it. This is particularly important for assessing the baseline cost of the process and options for improvement. Research problem: So far, process mining research has focused by and large on the analysis of duration. The aim of this research is to develop a cost model for processes that defines all the relevant cost factors. Based on this cost model, the candidate will develop an analysis technique that makes estimations of cost based on event log data.

Topic 4: Enhancing Human-AI Co-Creativity: Investigating Generative AI Tools as Creative Collaborators (Master) 

Description: The rise of generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT, DALL·E, and MidJourney, has opened new frontiers in collaborative creativity, where AI systems contribute to human creative processes. This thesis investigates the evolving role of generative AI as a creative partner – more than a tool, less than a human collaborator. GenAI tools can support ideation, problem-solving, and refinement across various creative domains. The study can take different directions, from systematically analyzing and structuring the “creative competencies” of generative AI tools to studying how users collaborate with generative AI in real-world creative tasks. Through surveys, user studies, and evaluations of creative outputs, this research aims to uncover human-AI co-creativity’s mechanisms, challenges, and opportunities. The findings will provide a deeper understanding of how AI can enhance creativity while highlighting potential barriers to effective collaboration.

Topic 5: Exploring the Phenomenon of AI Companions and Virtual Girlfriends: Understanding Human Attachment to Digital Partners (Master) 

Description: With the rise of AI-driven virtual companions and “AI girlfriends” in apps like Replika, a new dimension of human-computer interaction is emerging, blurring the lines between emotional connection and digital simulation. This thesis seeks to explore the psychological, social, and technological aspects of these AI companions. Key questions include: What motivates individuals to seek relationships with AI partners? How do users form attachments to non-human entities? What role does personalization and anthropomorphism play in fostering these connections? By employing web searches, qualitative interviews, surveys, or case studies, this research will aim to uncover the broader implications of AI companions on social behavior, emotional well-being, and the evolving nature of human entanglement with GenAI tools.

Topic 6: Anthropomorphic Perceptions of Large Language Models: what is the gender of ChatGPT and its Counterparts? (Bachelor/Master)

Description: In today's digital era, Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT are transforming the way we interact with technology, often blurring the boundaries between machine and human cognition. This thesis delves into the intriguing realm of anthropomorphism, the human tendency to attribute human-like qualities to non-human entities. Specifically, this research aims to uncover laypeople's underlying beliefs and implicit conceptions about ChatGPT and similar models concerning an implicit gender attribution. By designing and conducting a survey, the thesis will gain insights into individuals' perception of these cutting-edge technologies. The findings can potentially illuminate not only our relationship with LLMs but also the broader implications of human-machine interactions in an increasingly AI-driven world.

Topic 11: Challenges faced by companies regarding the migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and initial solution approaches (Bachelor/Master)

Description: Since quantum computers will be able to decrypt currently used cryptography, companies need to take action in order to keep their cryptography safe. One solution to be safe against quantum computer attacks is to migrate to post-quantum cryptography (PQC). However, exchanging current cryptography is not a trivial problem. There are several challenges companies have to face, which need to be explored further, as well as initial solution approaches. This thesis focuses more on the organizational perspective than on the technical one.

Topic 12: Efforts in Germany regarding the migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) (Bachelor/Master)

Description: Since quantum computers will be able to decrypt currently used cryptography, companies need to take action in order to keep their cryptography safe. One solution to be safe against quantum computer attacks is to migrate to post-quantum cryptography (PQC). However, exchanging current cryptography is not a trivial problem. There are several challenges companies have to face. One of the challenges is that companies depend on their software provider or need e.g. hardware, software, and other services, to migrate to PQC. This thesis aims to explore the initiatives and offers available in and made by Germany to migrate to PQC. Specifically, the following areas can be examined: current offers from start-ups and established companies, government-funded projects, migration recommendations from the government, learning about needed competencies in companies through analyzing job advertisements by text mining techniques, etc.

Topic 13: Event Log Privacy Auditing (Master)

Description: Event Logs are often anonymized to ensure privacy. Most anonymization algorithms use formal privacy guarantees such as differential privacy. The issue with these techniques is that the algorithm or implementation could contain errors. Consequently, anonymized event logs might not have the targeted privacy guarantee and the individuals involved in the dataset might have a higher privacy loss than expected. Differential Privacy Auditing allows to check if an algorithm fulfils the differential privacy guarantee. The aim of this thesis is to adjust know Differential Privacy Auditing techniques to Event Log Anonymization and evaluate anonymization techniques from the process mining domain.
