According to news reporting originating from Hannover, Germany, by NewsR x correspondents, research stated, "Soft-robot designs are manifold, but only a few are publicly available. Often, these are only briefly described in their pub lications." Financial support for this research came from German Research Foundation (DFG). Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Leibniz University Hann over, "This complicates reproduction and hinders the reproducibility and compara bility of research results. If the designs were uniform and open source, validat ing researched methods on real benchmark systems would be possible. To address t his, we present two variants of a soft pneumatic robot with antagonistic bellows as open source. Starting from a semi-modular design with multiple cables and tu bes routed through the robot body, the transition to a fully modular robot with integrated microvalves and serial communication is highlighted. Modularity in te rms of stackability, actuation, and communication is achieved, which is the cruc ial requirement for building soft robots with many degrees of freedom and high d exterity for real-world tasks. Both systems are compared regarding their respect ive advantages and disadvantages."

    Recent Findings from China University of Petroleum Provides New Insights into Ma chine Learning (On the Evaluation of Coal Strength Alteration Induced By Co2 Inj ection Using Advanced Black- Box and White- Box Machine Learning ...)

According to news reporting out of Beijing, People's Republic of C hina, by NewsRx editors, research stated, "The injection of carbon dioxide (CO2) into coal seams is a prominent technique that can provide carbon sequestration in addition to enhancing coalbed methane extraction. However, CO2 injection into the coal seams can alter the coal strength properties and their long-term integ rity." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the China Universit y of Petroleum, "In this work, the strength alteration of coals induced by CO2 e xposure was modeled using 147 laboratorymeasured unconfined compressive strengt h (UCS) data points and considering CO2 saturation pressure, CO2 interaction tem perature, CO2 interaction time, and coal rank as input variables. Advanced white -box and black-box machine learning algorithms including Gaussian process regres sion (GPR) with rational quadratic kernel, extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), categorical boosting (CatBoost), adaptive boosting decision tree (AdaBoost-DT), multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS), K-nearest neighbor (KNN), gene expression programming (GEP), and group method of data handling (GMDH) were used in the modeling process. The results demonstrated that GPR-Rational Quadratic p rovided the most accurate estimates of UCS of coals having 3.53%, 3 .62%, and 3.55% for the average absolute percent rela tive error (AAPRE) values of the train, test, and total data sets, respectively. Also, the overall determination coefficient (R-2) value of 0.9979 was additiona l proof of the excellent accuracy of this model compared with other models. More over, the first mathematical correlations to estimate the change in coal strengt h induced by CO2 exposure were established in this work by the GMDH and GEP algo rithms with acceptable accuracy. Sensitivity analysis revealed that the Spearman correlation coefficient shows the relative importance of the input parameters o n the coal strength better than the Pearson correlation coefficient. Among the i nputs, coal rank had the greatest influence on the coal strength (strong nonline ar relationship) based on the Spearman correlation coefficient. After that, CO2 interaction time and CO2 saturation pressure have shown relatively strong nonlin ear relationships with model output, respectively. The CO2 interaction temperatu re had the smallest impact on coal strength alteration induced by CO2 exposure b ased on both Pearson and Spearman correlation coefficients."

    Study Findings from Old Dominion University Broaden Understanding of Artificial Intelligence (Shift of Ambidexterity Modes: an Empirical Investigation of the Im pact of Artificial Intelligence In Customer Service)

    111-112页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Investigators publish new report on Ar tificial Intelligence. According to news reporting originating in Norfolk, Virgi nia, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "To manage the trade-offs between e xploration and exploitation, customer service organizations typically choose a s pecific ambidexterity mode, such as structural separation or behavioral integrat ion, that suits their context. However, recent research suggests that organizati ons need to dynamically change their ambidexterity modes to better align with ch anging environmental and organizational contexts." Financial support for this research came from US Army Research Laboratory (ARL). The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Old Dominion Universi ty, "This study examines the impact of AI in facilitating the shift across vario us modes of ambidexterity in customer service organizations. Our findings reveal that achieving shifts in ambidexterity modes is challenging, and organizations must overcome technology, business process, and stakeholder related barriers. Ba sed on our findings, we develop a set of propositions for further investigation. "
