Annual Report Annual Report 2018–2019 Research for the networked society The German Internet Institute About the Weizenbaum Institute The Weizenbaum Institute for the Networked Society – The German Internet Institute is a joint project funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). The consortium is composed of the four Berlin universities – Freie Universität Berlin (FU Berlin), Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (HU Berlin), Technische Universität Berlin (TU Berlin), University of the Arts Berlin (UdK Berlin) – and the University of Potsdam (Uni Potsdam) as well as the Fraunhofer Institute for Open Communication Systems (FOKUS) and the WZB Berlin Social Science Center as coordinator. The Weizenbaum Institute conducts interdisciplinary and basic research on the transformation of society through digitalisation and develops options for shaping politics, business and civil society. The aim is to better understand the dynamics, mechanisms and implications of digitalisation. To this end, the Weizenbaum Institute investigates the ethical, legal, economic and political aspects of the digital transformation. This creates an empirical basis for responsibly shaping digitalisation. In order to develop options for politics, business and society, the Weizenbaum Institute links interdisciplinary problem-oriented basic research with explorations of concrete solutions and dialogue with society.

At a time when debates about the role of digitalisation in work, health and democracy are determining our everyday lives, this statement by Joseph Weizenbaum, the man who gave our institute its name, is more relevant than ever. We see how these debates are often dominated by feelings and opinions, how echo chambers and filter bubbles crowd out insights, how fashions and “social” tools make living together more difficult, even though they actually promise the opposite. At the Weizenbaum Institute for the Networked Society – The German Internet Institute (in the following “Weizenbaum Institute”) we have dedicated ourselves to the task of scientifically investigating the societal implications of today's technological developments. In doing so, we do not play the role of admonishing critics, but of scientists equipped with the necessary expertise and time to get to the bottom of things. We ask about the truth behind the magic word artificial intelligence (AI) and investigate how it is used pragmatically in specific working environments. And we see that abstract promises made by futurologists or market research institutes cannot be reconciled with the reality of German manufacturing companies. We ask about the innovative business models that may emerge from the digitalisation of education and how new data-based learning formats can enable the individualisation of teaching and learning paths. The radical upheavals in the education sector are already evident today. Tech companies such as Google, Amazon and Netflix are forcing their way onto the market with new digital educational products, inevitably triggering unequal competition with the traditional educational providers who should actually be driving digitalisation forward. We ask how self-determination in data use can be strengthened in a networked society. The Privacy Icons project is developing a toolbox for visually communicating information that could supplement the complex data protection statements of online platforms. The symbol-based system it is developing can increase user awareness by highlighting legal aspects of data protection with potentially negative consequences. These are just a few of the many questions that our interdisciplinary research groups are currently working on. As researchers of the Weizenbaum Institute, we see our task not only in analysing the societal manifestations of digital change, but also in actively seeking dialogue with society. Our projects thus have an impact on business, politics and civil society, but also on academic teaching and research itself. In this annual report, we present the issues and questions that engage our 20 research groups. While the 2017/2018 report was still dominated by the establishment of teams and structures, this report is primarily devoted to the institute's academic work. We hope you enjoy reading it!

Review of 2018 /19 For the Weizenbaum Institute, the period from September 2018 to September 2019 was marked by the further development of the institute, but also by the zeal with which our researchers worked on interdisciplinary topics in the individual research groups. They formulated research questions, developed research designs, carried out studies, generated findings and published results that help to better understand the social dynamics of digital transformation processes and that can shape change in a self-determined way. In this review of the year, we report on the institutional developments, on formats for our promotion of young researchers, on national and international knowledge exchange, and on knowledge transfer and dialogue with society, politics and business. 12 I. REVIEW OF THE YEAR ANNUAL REPORT 2018/2019 1.1 I n s t i t u t i o n a l d e v e 1.2 p m e n 1.1 Institutional development Mission statement and guidelines What are our goals and how do we want to pursue them? How does our understanding of ourselves shape our research? What makes us strong? How do we want to work together? These were the typical questions that we dealt with at the end of 2018, when we had to define a mission statement and principles for scientific work and interaction in joint sessions. The mission statement that emerged from this process is closely oriented towards the man who gave our institute its name, the German-American computer science pioneer Joseph Weizenbaum (1923–2008), who already in the last century called for a critical approach to information technology with a concern for the welfare of society. Following his example, we researchers at the Weizenbaum Institute want to critically question the digital transformation through excellent research. A key issue for us is individual and collective self-determination, which must be preserved in an increasingly networked society. Our mission statement defines the values and the goals of our research. It describes how we understand our social mission and what principles we feel committed to in our scientific work. The mission statement serves as orientation for the further development of the institute and for the further development of the research agenda. 13 I. REVIEW OF THE YEAR ANNUAL REPORT 2018/2019 1.

The adaptive loop filter (ALF) has been a topic of interest for many years. ALF reaches high coding gains and has motivated many researchers over the past years to further improve the state-of-the-art algo- rithms. The main idea of ALF is to apply a classification to partition the set of all sample locations into multiple classes. After that, Wiener filters are calculated and applied for each class. Therefore, the performance of ALF essen- tially relies on how its classification behaves. In this paper, we extensively analyze multiple feature-based classifica- tions for ALF (MCALF) and extend the original MCALF by incorporating sample adaptive offset filtering. Further- more, we derive new block-based classifications which can be applied in MCALF to reduce its complexity. Experimental results show that our extended MCALF can further improve compression efficiency compared to the original MCALF algorithm.

  • The Committees of the German Bundestag 2 3 Month in and Month Out, the German Bundestag Adopts New Laws Or Amends Existing Legislation
    The Committees of the German Bundestag 2 3 Month in and month out, the German Bundestag adopts new laws or amends existing legislation. The Bundestag sets up permanent committees in every electoral term to assist it in accomplishing this task. In these committees, the Members concentrate on a specialised area of policy. They discuss the items referred to them by the ple- nary and draw up recommen- dations for decisions that serve as the basis for the ple- nary’s decision. The permanent committees of the German Bundestag – at the heart of Parliament’s work The Bundestag is largely free to decide how many commit- tees it establishes, a choice which depends on the priori- ties it wants to set in its par- liamentary work.

Dem Gemeinsamen Bundesausschuss (G-BA) liegt seit kurzem eine abschließende Evidenzbewertung des Instituts für Qualität und Wirtschaftlichkeit im Gesundheitswesen (IQWiG) von molekulargenetischen Bluttests für Schwangere vor, die am 27. Juni 2018 veröffentlicht wurde. Diese Tests dienen dazu, Trisomien wie bspw. Down-Syndrom beim ungeborenen Kind in einem frühen Stadium der Schwangerschaft zu diagnostizieren. Der G-BA wird unter anderem auf Grundlage dieses Abschlussberichts entscheiden, ob die Kosten für solche Tests künftig von den gesetzlichen Krankenversicherungen übernommen werden. Schon heute werden Schwangeren diese Tests als Selbstzahlerleistung angeboten und auf Antrag die Kosten von Krankenkassen übernommen. Fast alle Schwangeren, die ein Kind mit Down-Syndrom erwarten, entscheiden sich für einen Abbruch der Schwangerschaft. Professor Josef Hecken, unparteiischer Vorsitzender des Gemeinsamen Bundesausschuss, erklärte in einem Schreiben im März diesen Jahres, das nachrichtlich an die Mitglieder des Gesundheitsausschusses gesendet wurde, es sei „damit zu rechnen, dass schon in absehbarer Zeit weitere molekulargenetische Testverfahren zur Verfügung stehen“. Eindringlich wies er darauf hin, dass damit fundamentale ethische Grundfragen unserer Werteordnung berührt seien. Aus Sicht der Trägerorganisationen des G-BA sei es „zwingend notwendig, eine parlamentarische Diskussion und Willensbildung zu der Fragestellung herbeizuführen, ob und wie weit molekulargenetische Testverfahren in der Schwangerschaft zur Anwendung gelangen können.“ Wir teilen diese Ansicht.

  • The Emerging H.264/AVC Standard
    AUDIO / VIDEO CODING The emerging H.264 /AVC standard Ralf Schäfer, Thomas Wiegand and Heiko Schwarz Heinrich Hertz Institute, Berlin, Germany H.264/AVC is the current video standardization project of the ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) and the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG). The main goals of this standardization effort are to develop a simple and straightforward video coding design, with enhanced compression performance, and to provide a “network-friendly” video representation which addresses “conversational” (video telephony) and “non-conversational” (storage, broadcast or streaming) applications. H.264/AVC has achieved a significant improvement in the rate-distortion efficiency – providing, typically, a factor of two in bit-rate savings when compared with existing standards such as MPEG-2 Video. The MPEG-2 video coding standard [1], which was developed about 10 years ago, was the enabling technol- ogy for all digital television systems worldwide. It allows an efficient transmission of TV signals over satellite (DVB-S), cable (DVB-C) and terrestrial (DVB-T) platforms. However, other transmission media such as xDSL or UMTS offer much smaller data rates. Even for DVB-T, there is insufficient spectrum available – hence the number of programmes is quite limited, indicating a need for further improved video compression. In 1998, the Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG – ITU-T SG16 Q.6) started a project called H.26L with the target to double the coding efficiency when compared with any other existing video coding standard.
