According to news reporting out of Tokyo, Japan, by NewsRx editors, research stated, “The control of the velocity of a high-speed laser- induced microjet is crucial in applications such as needle-free injection. Previous studies have indicated that the jet velocity is heavily influenced by the volumes of secondary cavitation bubbles generated through laser absorption.” Financial supporters for this research include Japan Society For The Promotion of Science; Japan Science And Technology Agency. Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology: “However, there has been a lack of investigation of the relationship between the positions of secondary cavitation bubbles and the jet velocity. In this study, we investigate the effects of secondary cavitation on the jet velocity of laser-induced microjets extracted using explainable artificial intelligence (XAI). An XAI is used to classify the jet velocity from images of secondary cavitation and to extract features from the images through visualization of the classification process. For this purpose, we run 1000 experiments and collect the corresponding images. The XAI model, which is a feedforward neural network (FNN), is trained to classify the jet velocity from the images of secondary cavitation bubbles. After achieving a high classification accuracy, we analyze the classification process of the FNN.”

According to news reporting originating in Levanger, Norway, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “Medical histories of patients can predict a patient's immediate future. While most studies propose to predict survival from vital signs and hospital tests within one episode of care, we carried out selective feature engineering from longitudinal medical records in this study to develop a dataset with derived features.” The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Nord University, “We thereafter trained multiple machine learning models for the binary prediction of whether an episode of care will culminate in death among patients suspected of bloodstream infections. The machine learning classifier performance is evaluated and compared and the feature importance impacting the model output is explored. The extreme gradient boosting model achieved the best performance for predicting death in the next hospital episode with an accuracy of 92%.” According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “Age at the time of the first visit, length of history, and information related to recent episodes were the most critical features.” This research has been peer-reviewed.

Furthermore, the size safety and topological safety of the net, resulting from the collaborative support of the robots, are guaranteed through geometric constraints. We integrate our algorithm on a car-like robot team and test it in simulations and real-world experiments to validate our performance.”

According to news reporting originating from Shanghai, People's Republic of China, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “Chatter is one of the main barriers that significantly limits the efficiency and quality of robotic drilling processes. In this work, we present an approach based on synchroextracting chirplet transform (SECT) for early chatter recognition in a robotic drilling system.” Funders for this research include National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), Natural Science Foundation of Shanghai, Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Major Project. Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, “It mainly comprises four steps: signal preprocessing, time-frequency analysis (TFA), signal reconstruction, and indicator calculation. To remove the disturbances of the rotation-related frequencies, matrix notch filters are designed to preprocess the acquired vibration signal. The nonstationary and nonlinear properties of chatter acceleration signal are characterized by the SECT, which extracts the time-frequency (TF) points satisfying the instantaneous frequency (IF) equation to acquire an energy-concentrated TF representation. The whole signal is decomposed into several subsignals, and reconstruction for the SECT is then employed to reconstruct each subsignal for different frequency bands. To characterize signal energy and frequency distribution change, the energy entropy is selected as an indicator for chatter monitoring. The effectiveness and superiority of the presented recognition approach were verified by robotic drilling tests under various cutting parameters and part materials. The results demonstrated that the presented chatter recognition approach could identify the onset of robotic drilling chatter effectively and timely. Moreover, it detected the chatter 58.7 and 136.8 ms earlier on average than the synchroextracting-based and multisynchrosqueezing-based methods, respectively.”
