According to news reporting out of Baghdad, Iraq, by NewsRx editors, r esearch stated, "The trajectory tracking is important to make the WMR move auton omously from the starting point to the destination along a predefined time. Impl ementing of trajectory tracking control is a fundamental part to accomplish its application tasks." The news journalists obtained a quote from the research from University of Techn ology: "In this article a new method by using a hybrid controller has been prese nted to solve the problem of the trajectory tracking of four mecanum wheeled mob ile robot. Proposed controller is depending on modeling of robot kinematic and d ynamic equations. The novelty in this work is that, an optimal control system se lf-tuning parameters based on an optimization algorithm for these models of the mobile robot is utilized. The optimal control type that is used in this work is the Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) controller. LQR is used to control the actu ator torque that is required in each wheel to achieve the robot task. The parame ters of the LQR controller are tuned by using Ant Colony Optimization (ACO). For results simulation, MATLAB/ Simulink is used for circular and infinity shape tr ajectories. Results show that when the robot follows a circular trajectory, the values of position trajectory error values are reduced to smAll value (ex=3.218 *10-5m) and (ey= 2.224*10-5m) in xo and yo directions, respectively and remained almost at these values until the end of the simulation time."

    School of Business Reports Findings in Machine Learning (Machine learning miscla ssification networks reveal a citation advantage of interdisciplinary publicatio ns only in high-impact journals)

    68-69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 Machine Learning is th e subject of a report. According to news reporting originating from Bremen, Germ any, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Given a large enough volume of data and precise, meaningful categories, training a statistical model to solve a classification problem is straightforward and has become a standard application of machine learning (ML). If the categories are not precise, but rather fuzzy, as in the case of scientific disciplines, the systematic failures of ML classifi cation can be informative about properties of the underlying categories." Financial support for this research came from Constructor University Bremen gGmb H. Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from the School of Business, "Here we classify a large volume of academic publications using only the abstra ct as information. From the publications that are classified differently by jour nal categories and ML categories (i.e., misclassified publications, when using the journal assignment as ground truth) we construct a network among disciplines. Analysis of these misclassifications provides insight in two topics at the core of the science of science: (1) Mapping out the interplay of disciplines. We sho w that this misclassification network is informative about the interplay of acad emic disciplines and it is similar to, but distinct from, a citation-based map o f science, where nodes are scientific disciplines and an edge indicates a strong co-citation count between publications in these disciplines. (2) Analyzing the success of interdisciplinarity."

    Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein Reports Findings in Colon Cancer (Oncologic o utcomes for robotic versus laparoscopic colectomy for colon cancer: an ACS-NSQIP analysis)

According to news reporting originating in Sao Pau lo, Brazil, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Robotic colectomy has been associated with comparable or improved short-term morbidity and mortality when c ompared to laparoscopic colectomy, including shorter length of stay. In this stu dy, we sought to understand oncologic advantages for robotic as compared to lapa roscopic colectomy in colon cancer." The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Hospital Israelita Al bert Einstein, "We analyzed the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Q uality Improvement Program (NSQIP) participant user files for All elective colon cancer cases from 1/2016 through 12/2021 performed with minimAlly invasive surg ical techniques (robotic and laparoscopic). We calculated relative risks (RR) th rough Poisson Regression models and treatment effect coefficients by propensity- score match, after adjusting for age, BMI, ASA scores, mechanical and antibiotic bowel preparation, emergency surgery, race, gender, smoking status, hypertensio n and diabetes mellitus. Analyzed outcomes included rate of chemotherapy initiat ion within 90 days of surgery, number of harvested lymph nodes, any occurrence o f intraoperative or postoperative blood transfusion, and the need for ostomy. Du ring the study period, 44,745 patients underwent minimAlly invasive colectomy fo r colon cancer; 39,614 in the laparoscopic cohort and 7,831 in the robotic cohor t. After adjusting for confounders, robotic colectomy was associated with a sign ificant increase in the likelihood for initating chemotherapy within 90 days (RR 1.98, 95% CI {1.86-2.10} , p<0.001). The robotic-treated patients had a significantly more lymph nodes harve sted, a significant decrease in the need for intraperative or postoperative bloo d transfusion (RR 0.64, 95% CI {0.57-0.71} , p<0.001) and a significant reduction in the need for ost omy formation (RR 0.26, 95% CI {0.22-0.30} , p<0.001). As a retrospective and non-randomized study, r esidual bias and confouding variables are likely to exist. The study is also sub ject to coding incompleteness and inaccuracies. We also do not have additional c ontext on potential factors that might influence time to chemotherapy. In additi on, there is no information on surgeon or hospital volume, which can be associat ed with outcomes. Robotic colectomy for colon cancer was associated with signifi cant improvement in the rate of chemotherapy initiation within 90 days, a signif icant reduction in need for blood transfusions, and a lower likelihood of receiv ing an ostomy when compared to laparoscopic colectomy procedures."
