According to news originating from Tubingen, Germany, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "For decades, manufacturers have attemp ted to reduce or eliminate the optical aberrations that appear on the progressiv e addition lens' surfaces during manufacturing. Besides every effort made, some of these distortions are inevitable given how lenses are fabricated, where in fa ct, astigmatism appears on the surface and cannot be entirely removed, or where non-uniform magnification becomes inherent to the power change across the lens." Financial support for this research came from European Grant PLATYPUS, Marie Skl odowska-Curie RISE initiative. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the University of T ubingen, "Some presbyopes may refer to certain discomfort when wearing these len ses for the first time, and a subset of them might never adapt. Developing, prot otyping, testing and purveying those lenses into the market come at a cost, whic h is usually reflected in the retail price. This study aims to test the feasibil ity of virtual reality (VR) for testing customers' satisfaction with these lense s, even before getting them onto production. VR offers a controlled environment where different parameters affecting progressive lens comforts, such as distorti ons, image displacement or optical blurring, can be inspected separately. In thi s study, the focus was set on the distortions and image displacement, not taking blur into account. Behavioural changes (head and eye movements) were recorded u sing the built-in eye tracker. We found participants were significantly more dis pleased in the presence of highly distorted lens simulations." According to the news editors, the research concluded: "In addition, a gradient boosting regressor was fitted to the data, so predictors of discomfort could be unveiled, and ratings could be predicted without performing additional measureme nts."

According to news reporting out of Cleveland, Ohio , by NewsRx editors, research stated, "The high failure rate of clinical trials in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD-related dementia (ADRD) is due to a lack of u nderstanding of the pathophysiology of disease, and this deficit may be addresse d by applying artificial intelligence (AI) to ‘big data' to rapidly and effectiv ely expand therapeutic development efforts. Recent accelerations in computing po wer and availability of big data, including electronic health records and multi- omics profiles, have converged to provide opportunities for scientific discovery and treatment development." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Cleveland Clinic, " Here, we review the potential utility of applying AI approaches to big data for discovery of disease-modifying medicines for AD/ADRD. We illustrate how AI tools can be applied to the AD/ADRD drug development pipeline through collaborative e fforts among neurologists, gerontologists, geneticists, pharmacologists, medicin al chemists, and computational scientists." According to the news editors, the research concluded: "AI and open data science expedite drug discovery and development of disease-modifying therapeutics for A D/ADRD and other neurodegenerative diseases."

    Research Conducted at Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications Has Pro vided New Information about Robotics (A Heterogeneous Attention Fusion Mechanism for the Cross-environment Scene Classification of the Home Service Robot)

    61-62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 originating from Jiangsu, People's Republic of China, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "There have been many methods to improve the capacity of scene classification of service robots. However, most of them are proposed from a technical standpoint but without reference to any c ognitive principle of the brain, and furthermore, from design to evaluation, the particularity of the robot task is still not fully considered, such as cross -e nvironment generalization, explicit semantic preservation and interpretation." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the Nanjing Univers ity of Posts and Telecommunications, "Thus, the scene cognitive behavior of robo ts is far from humans, and their environmental adaptability is still poor. It is difficult to complete learning place concepts from discrete fragments and then continuously perceiving them with a limited view in unvisited spaces. Inspired b y the recent findings from neuroscience, an attention -based global and object a ttribute fusion mechanism (AGOFM for short) constructed by three parts is propos ed to overcome these deficiencies. In the global attribute part, a global featur e extractor and a sequence context extractor are used to generate the holistic f eature. The involved context integrates limited views to form an overall impress ion of a scene for guiding attention. In the object attribute part, a novel obje ct vector is proposed. It simultaneously involves the detected object quantity, category and confidence information, which are all related to the vector index a nd high-level semantics. In the attention generation part, two sorted top -X cha racteristics deriving from the above two parts are fed into a fully connected (F C) network with batch normalization to generate effective attention. The attenti on weights are then applied to the batch normalized global and object vectors re spectively, and subsequently, the two heterogeneous information are directly fus ed by another FC network to achieve scene classification. The policies for multi -learner fusion and frame rejection are also provided. Finally, a novel evaluat ion paradigm is proposed that the model is trained on a discrete prior dataset, and then the inference is tested on a traditional dataset and two robot view dat asets. This simulates the cross -environment situation."

The model incorporates a torque balance model, a load distribution model, and a friction model to reflect the relationship between gear meshing position and e fficiency. The instantaneous efficiency and torque fluctuation of gear pairs wer e compared with the Coulomb friction model with an average friction coefficient and the elastohydrodynamic lubrication model with a time-varying friction coeffi cient. The effect of gear contact ratio on efficiency is analysed, while the ins tantaneous efficiency and torque fluctuation of gears are studied under varying operating conditions. The results indicate a maximum efficiency difference of 1. 86 % between the two friction coefficient models. Under specific o perating conditions, the instantaneous efficiency variation of the gear pair can reach 3.34 %, and the torque fluctuation can reach 5.19 Nm."

The simulation results show that the EKF-DQN algorit hm accelerates the maximization of rewards obtained and provides a higher succes s rate in fulfilling the mission assigned to the robot when compared to other va lue-based and policy-based algorithms. A demo video of the navigation system can be seen at:. This article proposes an algorithm for autonomous navigation of mo bile robots that merges reinforcement learning with extended Kalman filter (EKF) as a localization technique, namely, EKF-DQN, aiming to accelerate learning and improve the reward values obtained in the process of apprenticeship.
