PublicationThe Procurement Initiative Pulse Check Q2/2024(University of St.Gallen, 2024-07-15)With our Q2/2024 Pulse Check, we aim to gauge the current sentiment within the procurement and supply chain environment, focusing specifically on the role of raw materials procurement and the management of supplier price increases. Based on our pulse check survey, this report provides an overview of the current state in procurement and future trajectories.

PublicationTowards Scalable and Versatile Weight Space Learning(PMLR 235, 2024, 2024-07-23)Learning representations of well-trained neural network models holds the promise to provide an understanding of the inner workings of those models. However, previous work has either faced limitations when processing larger networks or was task-specific to either discriminative or generative tasks. This paper introduces the SANE approach to weight-space learning. SANE overcomes previous limitations by learning task-agnostic representations of neural networks that are scalable to larger models of varying architectures and that show capabilities beyond a single task. Our method extends the idea of hyper-representations towards sequential processing of subsets of neural network weights, thus allowing one to embed larger neural networks as a set of tokens into the learned representation space. SANE reveals global model information from layer-wise embeddings, and it can sequentially generate unseen neural network models, which was unattainable with previous hyper-representation learning methods. Extensive empirical evaluation demonstrates that SANE matches or exceeds state-of-the art performance on several weight representation learning benchmarks, particularly in initialization for new tasks and larger ResNet architectures.Type:Volume:

PublicationService business in manufacturing companies - Identifying misconceptions and directing further research(Nova Southeastern University, 2010-09-06)Despite increasing interest in service business in manufacturing companies, the arguments for the transition from selling products to providing services still lacks theoretical robustness. By using eight focus groups with 45 participating companies, the following five misconceptions related to the economic and strategic arguments could be identified: the share of service revenue is an indicator for moving toward services, services are more profitable than products, service business is less volatile than product business, services are used for differentiating the total offering and service strategy creates sustainable competitive advantages. The reflection on these misconceptions guides further research and enriches the conceptualization of services in a manufacturing context.
