    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Current study results on Machine Learn ing have been published. According to news reporting from Bogota, Colombia, by N ewsRx journalists, research stated, "The classification of activities of daily l iving (ADLs) in the home of older adults makes it possible to identify risk situ ations and changes in behavior that may be associated with some type of problem. This information allows caregivers and health professionals to take action when these types of situations are detected." Financial support for this research came from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana. The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Pontificia Unive rsity Javeriana, "Although many machine learning classification techniques have been proposed, the effectiveness of the solution in a real-world context remains unclear in most cases due to the large number of sensors required, the type of sensors used which may pose privacy issues, and the assumption of considering on ly segmented sensor events for each activity before training the models. This ar ticle presents an evaluation of different machine learning techniques using fixe d time windows to extract spatiotemporal features and classify ten human activit ies in a real smart home with unobtrusive sensors using the Aruba CASAS dataset. The three classification techniques that achieved better performance were rando m forest, XGBoost, and support vector machine (SVM), achieving an accuracy of 97 % with our best model, outperforming other approaches from the lit erature that were using the same dataset under similar conditions."

According to news reporting from National Colleg e of Business Administration and Economics by NewsRx journalists, research state d, "A kidney stone is a solid formation that can lead to kidney failure, severe pain, and reduced quality of life from urinary system blockages." Financial supporters for this research include This Research Work Is Supported B y Qatar National Library.. Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from National College of Bus iness Administration and Economics: "While medical experts can interpret kidney- ureter-bladder (KUB) X-ray images, specific images pose challenges for human det ection, requiring significant analysis time. Consequently, developing a detectio n system becomes crucial for accurately classifying KUB X-ray images. This artic le applies a transfer learning (TL) model with a pre-trained VGG16 empowered wit h explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) to establish a system that takes KUB X-ray images and accurately categorizes them as kidney stones or normal cases. The findings demonstrate that the model achieves a testing accuracy of 97.41% in identifying kidney stones or normal KUB X-rays in the dataset used. VGG16 mod el delivers highly accurate predictions but lacks fairness and explainability in their decision-making process. This study incorporates the Layer-Wise Relevance Propagation (LRP) technique, an explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) techn ique, to enhance the transparency and effectiveness of the model to address this concern."

Considering uncertainties in the con ditions of products at the end of their service life, an objective ‘informativen ess' matrix integrating the label information and regional information is design ed for autonomous perception, and AR technology is utilised to improve the opera tional accuracy and efficiency of the human-robot interaction process. By sharin g the autonomous perception and humanrobot interaction processes, the two loops are simultaneously executed. To validate the capability of the proposed archite cture, a screw removal task was studied. The experiments demonstrated the capabi lity to accomplish challenging perceptual tasks and develop the perceptual abili ty of robots accurately, stably, and efficiently in disassembly processes."

Thus, a unified knowledge represen tation system that can be shared by humans and robots is essential. Driven by th is need in a product as-sembly scenario, we propose the Human-Robot Shared Assem bly Taxonomy (HR-SAT). With HR-SAT, any comprehensive assembly task can be repre sented as a knowledge graph that both humans and robots can un-derstand. To ensu re consistency in task decomposition and representation, we define the key eleme nts of HR-SAT. HR-SAT incorporates rich assembly information and provides necess ary information for diverse applications, e.g., process planning, quality checki ng, and human-robot collaboration. The usage and practicality of HR-SAT are demo nstrated through two case studies. As a unified assembly process representation schema, HR-SAT constitutes a critical step toward seamless human-robot knowledge transfer."

In this study, th e interface segregation energy and interface binding energy subsequent to the in clusion of alloying elements were computed through a first-principle methodology , serving as a dataset for machine learning. Feature descriptors for machine lea rning undergo refinement via feature engineering. Leveraging the theory of machi ne-learning-accelerated first-principle computation, six machine learning models -RBF, SVM, BPNN, ENS, ANN, and RF-were developed to train the dataset, with the ANN model selected based on R2 and MSE metrics. Through this model, the accelera ted computation of interface segregation energy and interface binding energy was achieved for 89 elements. The results indicate that elements including B, Si, F e, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, and Ge exhibit dual functionality, inhibiting interfacial reactions while bolstering interfacial binding."

    Data from Department of Bioengineering Advance Knowledge in Machine Learning (In formation decomposition in complex systems via machine learning)

    96-96页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-New research on artificial intelligenc e is the subject of a new report. According to news originating from the Departm ent of Bioengineering by NewsRx editors, the research stated, "One of the fundam ental steps toward understanding a complex system is identifying variation at th e scale of the system's components that is most relevant to behavior on a macros copic scale." Our news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Department of Bi oengineering: "Mutual information provides a natural means of linking variation across scales of a system due to its independence of functional relationship bet ween observables. However, characterizing the manner in which information is dis tributed across a set of observables is computationally challenging and generall y infeasible beyond a handful of measurements. Here, we propose a practical and general methodology that uses machine learning to decompose the information cont ained in a set of measurements by jointly optimizing a lossy compression of each measurement. Guided by the distributed information bottleneck as a learning obj ective, the information decomposition identifies the variation in the measuremen ts of the system state most relevant to specified macroscale behavior. We focus our analysis on two paradigmatic complex systems: a Boolean circuit and an amorp hous material undergoing plastic deformation."

In view of the above problems, this study started with the grinding force, and innovatively pr oposed a robotic belt grinding method for high surface integrity of blisk based on variable inclination angle force control. Firstly, a belt grinding robot base d on macro-micro-end hand structure and electromagnetic forcecontrolled end was designed based on indirect arm-winding control. Secondly, an adaptive variable i mpedance compliance based blisk grinding model was established through the relat ion expression of grinding end and the mathematical formula of inclination conta ct micro-surface control, which effectively coordinates the coupling relationshi p between force control and trajectory under inclined attitude. Lastly, the expe rimental study proved that the normal grinding force of this method was stable a nd the error was 1.14 %, the surface hardness and residual compress ive stress were improved by about 8.57 % and 52.82 % respectively, the surface morphology was uniform and the surface defects are wel l suppressed."
