    Findings from University of Augsburg Has Provided New Data on Robotics (Selectin g Feasible Trajectories for Robot-based X-ray Tomography By Varying Focus-detect or-distance In Space Restricted Environments)

    115-115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 Robotics is the subjec t of a report. According to news reporting originating from Augsburg, Germany, b y NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Computed tomography has evolved as an essential tool for non-destructive testing within the automotive industry. The application of robot-based computed tomography enables high-resolution CT inspec tions of components exceeding the dimensions accommodated by conventional system s." Financial support for this research came from Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG. Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from the University of Augsb urg, "However, large-scale components, e.g. vehicle bodies, often exhibit trajec tory-limiting elements. The utilization of conventional trajectories with consta nt Focus-Detector-Distances can lead to anisotropy in image data due to the inac cessibility of some angular directions. In this work, we introduce two approache s that are able to select suitable acquisitions point sets in scans of challengi ng to access regions through the integration of projections with varying Focus-D etector-Distances. The variable distances of the X-ray hardware enable the capab ility to navigate around collision structures, thus facilitating the scanning of absent angular directions. The initial approach incorporates collision-free vie wpoints along a spherical trajectory, preserving the field of view by maintainin g a constant ratio between the Focus-Object-Distance and the Object-Detector-Dis tance, while discreetly extending the Focus-Detector-Distance. The second method ology represents a more straightforward approach, enabling the scanning of angul ar sectors that were previously inaccessible on the conventional circular trajec tory by circumventing the X-ray source around these collision elements."

    Research from Pusan National University Yields New Findings on Machine Learning (Predicting the stereoselectivity of chemical reactions by composite machine lea rning method)

    117-118页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-A new study on artificial intelligence is now available. According to news reporting out of Pusan National University by NewsRx editors, research stated, "Stereoselective reactions have played a vit al role in the emergence of life, evolution, human biology, and medicine."Financial supporters for this research include National Science Foundation. Our news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Pusan National Univer sity: "However, for a long time, most industrial and academic efforts followed a trial-and-error approach for asymmetric synthesis in stereoselective reactions. In addition, most previous studies have been qualitatively focused on the influ ence of steric and electronic effects on stereoselective reactions. Therefore, q uantitatively understanding the stereoselectivity of a given chemical reaction i s extremely difficult. As proof of principle, this paper develops a novel compos ite machine learning method for quantitatively predicting the enantioselectivity representing the degree to which one enantiomer is preferentially produced from the reactions. Specifically, machine learning methods that are widely used in d ata analytics, including Random Forest, Support Vector Regression, and LASSO, ar e utilized. In addition, the Bayesian optimization and permutation importance te sts are provided for an in-depth understanding of reactions and accurate predict ion."

    Chengdu Fifth People's Hospital Reports Findings in Rectal Cancer (Robotic vs la paroscopic abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer: A propensity score matc hing cohort study and meta-analysis)

    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-New research on Oncology - Rectal Canc er is the subject of a report. According to news reporting from Chengdu, People' s Republic of China, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Robotic surgery (R S) is gaining popularity; however, evidence for abdominoperineal resection (APR) of rectal cancer (RC) is scarce. To compare the efficacy of RS and laparoscopic surgery (LS) in APR for RC." The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Chengdu Fifth Pe ople's Hospital, "We retrospectively identified patients with RC who underwent A PR by RS or LS from April 2016 to June 2022. Data regarding short-term surgical outcomes were compared between the two groups. To reduce the effect of potential confounding factors, propensity score matching was used, with a 1:1 ratio betwe en the RS and LS groups. A meta-analysis of seven trials was performed to compar e the efficacy of robotic and laparoscopic APR for RC surgery. Of 133 patients, after propensity score matching, there were 42 patients in each group. The posto perative complication rate was significantly lower in the RS group (17/42, 40.5% ) than in the LS group (27/42, 64.3%) ( = 0.029). There was no sign ificant difference in operative time ( = 0.564), intraoperative transfusion ( = 0.314), reoperation rate ( = 0.314), lymph nodes harvested ( =0.309), or circum ferential resection margin (CRM) positive rate ( = 0.314) between the two groups . The meta-analysis showed patients in the RS group had fewer positive CRMs ( = 0.04), lesser estimated blood loss (<0.00001), shorter pos toperative hospital stays ( = 0.02), and fewer postoperative complications ( = 0 .002) than patients in the LS group."

Acc ording to news reporting from the University of Douala by NewsRx journalists, re search stated, "Early diagnosis of maize-plant phytosanitary state in the field is crucial to prevent crop damage and optimize yield." Our news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from University of Do uala: "However, this field diagnosis presents a challenge due to the variable ba ckground of the field environment, which can hinder the performance of classific ation algorithms. In this article, we introduced a novel segmentation technique using a combined normalized difference vegetation index that effectively isolate s the features of interest, such as the leaves, from the surrounding image, whic h includes the diverse field background. To assess the effectiveness of our segm entation approach, we conducted early diagnosis of maize plants in the field usi ng supervised classification algorithms. We generated a dataset that incorporate d four essential texture features: energy, entropy, contrast, and inverse. These features were extracted from each of the segmented images using grayscale co-oc currence matrices."
