In the Ensemble with Technical Subjects

Introduction. The purpose of the paper is to test the hypothesis about the entry into the social interactions of actors of a special kind - devices with artificial intelligence. The author proposes to discuss a hypothesis about the emergenc...

LPMP: A Bio-Inspired Model for Visual Localization in Challenging Environments

Autonomous vehicles require precise and reliable self-localization to cope with dynamic environments. The field of visual place recognition (VPR) aims to solve this challenge by relying on the visual modality to recognize a place despite ch...

Characterization of Wing Kinematics by Decoupling Joint Movement in the Pigeon

Birds have remarkable flight capabilities due to their adaptive wing morphology. However, studying live birds is time-consuming and laborious, and obtaining information about the complete wingbeat cycle is difficult. To address this issue a...

Bearing Fault Analysis of BLDC Motor for Electric Scooter Application

In this paper, the bearing faults analysis of the brushless DC motor is presented. The research method is based on the analysis of the vibration signal of healthy as well as faulty bearings by the identification of specific frequencies on t...

Multi-channel transorbital electrical stimulation for effective stimulation of posterior retina

Abstract Transorbital electrical stimulation (tES) has been studied as a new noninvasive method for treating intractable eye diseases by delivering weak electrical current to the eye through a pair of electrodes attached to the skin around ...

Iterative Learning Method for In-Flight Auto-Tuning of UAV Controllers Based on Basic Sensory Information

Comparative Analysis of Deep Natural Networks and Large Language Models for Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis

Sentiment analysis is essential for comprehending public opinion, particularly when considering e-commerce and the expansion of online businesses. Early approaches treated sentiment analysis as a document or sentence-level classification pr...

Dentists’ perception and use of AI and robotics in the care of persons with disabilities

Abstract Despite the growing role of AI and robotics in healthcare, little is known about their integration into dental care for persons with disabilities (PWDs) in Saudi Arabia. This study aimed to assess dentists’ perceptions and attitude...

An Optimization Model for Reliability Improvement and Cost Reduction Through EV Smart Charging

There is a general concern that the increasing penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) will result in higher aging failure probability of equipment and reduced network reliability. The electricity costs may also increase, due to the exacerba...

Data-Driven Clustering Analysis for Representative Electric Vehicle Charging Profile in South Korea

As the penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) increases, an understanding of EV operation characteristics becomes crucial in various aspects, e.g., grid stability and battery degradation. This can be achieved through analyzing large amounts...

Presence in a Pocket. Phantasms of Immediacy in Japanese Mobile Telepresence Robotics

The paper addresses prospects of Japanese mobile telepresence robotics where small anthropomorphic devices are designed to act as intermediaries between remote interlocutors. First, an emic perspective of involved scientists and engineers i...

PZT Ferroelectric Synapse TFT With Multi-Level of Conductance State for Neuromorphic Applications

To fundamentally solve the bottleneck of Von Neumann’s computing architecture, a neuromorphic thin-film transistor (NTFT) employing Pb(Zr, Ti)O3 (PZT) was investigated. The indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) channel back gate TFT struc...
