According to news originating from Xi'an,People's Republic of China,by NewsRx correspondents,research stated,"A soft bistable actuator can generate high-speed motion between two prescribed stable positions,which is very useful for boosting the actuation of soft robots. Generally,the stroke of such an actu ator is completely determined once the design is finalized,which prohibits its applications in robots that perform multiple tasks." Financial support for this research came from National Natural Science Foundatio n of China (NSFC). Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Xi'an Jiaotong Univ ersity,"In the current work,a bistable actuator with adjustable characteristic s is proposed by exploring its strain energy landscape,in which the energy barr ier is manipulatable via electroactive twisted and coiled polymer fibers. As suc h,the actuator can operate in either bistable or postbistable mode,both of whi ch exhibit adjustable stiffness. A kinetostatic model that combines the chained beam constraint model and the mechanics of electroactive materials is establishe d to characterize the actuator design. Experimental results validate the kinetos tatic model and the behaviors of the actuator." According to the news editors,the research concluded: "As a robotic demonstrati on,a gripper that is formed by two actuators is prototyped,and it exhibits an adjustable load capacity (up to 6.5 times its weight under a 3 V voltage)." This research has been peer-reviewed.

According to news reporting originating in Zaga zig,Egypt,by NewsRx journalists,research stated,"In this study,five earth-f riendly spectrophotometric methods using multivariate techniques were developed to analyze levofloxacin,linezolid,and meropenem,which are utilized in critica l care units as combination therapies. These techniques were used to determine t he mentioned medications in laboratory-prepared mixtures,pharmaceutical product s and spiked human plasma that had not been separated before handling." The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Zagazig University," These methods were named classical least squares (CLS),principal component regr ession (PCR),partial least squares (PLS),genetic algorithm partial least squar es (GA-PLS),and artificial neural network (ANN). The methods used a five-level,three-factor experimental design to make different concentrations of the antibi otics mentioned (based on how much of them are found in the plasma of critical c are patients and their linearity ranges). The approaches used for levofloxacin,linezolid,and meropenem were in the ranges of 3-15,8-20,and 5-25 g/mL,respec tively. Several analytical tools were used to test the proposed methods' perform ance. These included the root mean square error of prediction,the root mean squ are error of cross-validation,percentage recoveries,standard deviations,and c orrelation coefficients. The outcome was highly satisfactory. The study found th at the root mean square errors of prediction for levofloxacin were 0.090,0.079,0.065,0.027,and 0.001 for the CLS,PCR,PLS,GA-PLS,and ANN models,respecti vely. The corresponding values for linezolid were 0.127,0.122,0.108,0.05,and 0.114,respectively. For meropenem,the values were 0.230,0.222,0.179,0.097,and 0.099 for the same models,respectively. These results indicate that the de veloped models were highly accurate and precise. This study compared the efficie ncy of artificial neural networks and classical chemometric models in enhancing spectral data selectivity for quickly identifying three antimicrobials. The resu lts from these five models were subjected to statistical analysis and compared w ith each other and with the previously published ones. Finally,the whiteness of the methods was assessed by the recently published white analytical chemistry ( WAC) RGB 12,and the greenness of the proposed methods was assessed using AGREE,GAPI,NEMI,Raynie and Driver,and eco-scale,which showed that the suggested a pproaches had the least negative environmental impact."

    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-New research on Surgery - Myomectomy i s the subject of a report. According to news reporting originating from Piraeus,Greece,by NewsRx correspondents,research stated,"The article ‘Comparison of operative and fertility outcomes of single-incision robotic myomectomy: a retros pective single-center analysis of 286 cases' by Kim et al. compares the effectiv eness of robotic single-port myomectomy against the traditional multiport approa ch. The study finds similar operating outcomes,complication rates,and pregnanc y rates in expert hands for both methods." Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Metaxa Memorial Cancer Hospital,"Our systematic review supports these findings,revealing no significa nt differences in operative time,blood loss,or complication rates. Recent meta -analysis further emphasizes the benefits of the single-port approach in reducin g morcellation time,overall operative duration,and blood loss. Our letter seek s insights on patient selection criteria to minimize conversion rates between su rgical approaches and inquiries on learning curve differences. Additionally,we seek cost analysis details for both techniques." According to the news editors,the research concluded: "We appreciate the author s' valuable contributions to this field."

    Research from Istanbul Bilgi University Provides New Data on Machine Learning (M achine Learning Analysis of Thermal Performance Indicator of Heat Exchangers wit h Delta Wing Vortex Generators)

According to news reporting from Istanbul,Turkey ,by NewsRx journalists,research stated,"In this work,the design features of delta wing vortex generators (DWVGs) on the thermo-hydraulic performance of heat exchangers are investigated using machine learning." Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Istanbul Bilgi Universi ty: "Reynolds numbers,attack angle,length,wing-to-width ratio,and relative p itch ratio of DWVGs were used as descriptor variables,with Nusselt numbers,fri ction factors,and performance evaluation criterion (PEC) serving as target vari ables. Decision tree classification revealed the pathways leading to high or low values of the performance variables. Among many of those pathways,it was found that high Reynolds numbers (between 8160 and 9800) and high attack angles (grea ter than or equal to 47.5°) lead to high Nusselt numbers. On the other hand,an attack angle between 41° and 60°,a Reynolds number less than 8510,and a wing-t o-width ratio greater than or equal to 0.4 causes a high friction factor. Finall y,the PEC is likely to enhance when the Reynolds number is higher than or equal to 10,300 and the attack angle is between 47.5° and 60°. In addition to the dec ision tree analysis,SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis (a part of ex plainable machine learning) was also applied to reveal the importance of design features and their positive and negative effects on the target variables."

    Research from Sriwijaya University Reveals New Findings on Androids (Development of a Position Control System for Wheeled Humanoid Robot Movement Using the Swer ve Drive Method Based on Fuzzy Logic Type-2)

    13-13页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News-Current study results on androids have been publi shed. According to news reporting originating from Sriwijaya University by NewsR x correspondents,research stated,"A humanoid robot is capable of mimicking hum an movements,which poses a challenge for researchers." Our news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Sriwijaya University: "This has led some to utilise wheels to facilitate its motion. However,achievi ng smooth and accurate movements at desired positions remains a challenge,neces sitating the development of an optimal control system and movement method. In th is study,solutions to address these challenges include the use of type-2 fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and the swerve drive method. During the steering rotation movement testing,type-1 FLC exhibits the fastest response time of 0.8 seconds,but oscillations occur,reaching up to 117 degrees to achieve the set point of 90 degrees. Additionally,type-1 FLC cannot reach the set point of -90 degrees. On the contrary,type-2 FLC aligns successfully with both set points of 90 and - 90 degrees." According to the news editors,the research concluded: "In coordinate movement t esting,type-1 FLC still shows an error between 1 cm and 2 cm compared to type-2 FLC,particularly with 3 and 5 members,which are equal to the given set point. The results of the tests indicate that type-2 FLC is reliable,showing a small steady-state error,stability,and no overshoot,despite its longer response tim e and processing duration compared to type-1 FLC."
