The Interactive Effects of Robot Anthropomorphism and Robot Ability on Perceived Threat and Support for Robotics Research

The present research examines how a robot's physical anthropomorphism interacts with perceived ability of robots to impact the level of realistic and identity threat that people perceive from robots and how it affects their support for robo...

Catheter pose-dependent virtual angioscopy images for endovascular aortic repair: validation with a video graphics array (VGA) camera

Previous research reported catheter pose-dependent virtual angioscopy images for endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) (phantom studies) without any validation with video images. The goal of our study focused on conducting this validation using...

Modern Robotics

This introduction to robotics offers a distinct and unified perspective of the mechanics, planning and control of robots. Ideal for self-learning, or for courses, as it assumes only freshman-level physics, ordinary differential equations, l...

On the way to a distributed systems calculus

Network calculus is a min-plus system theory which facilitates the efficient derivation of performance bounds for networks of queues. It has successfully been applied to provide end-to-end quality of service guarantees for integrated and di...

Building reliable distributed systems with CORBA

New classes of large-scale distributed applications will have to deal with unpredictable communication delays, with partial failures, and with networks that partition. In addition, sophisticated applications such as teleconferencing, video-...

Cybersecurity Issues in Generative AI

Generative AI technology is being applied in various fields. However, the advancement of these technologies also raises cybersecurity issues. In fact, there are cases of cyber attack using Generative AI, and the number is increasing. Theref...

Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity focuses on the threat prevention and risk management of digital data, as well as the protection of associated physical hardware and infrastructure. Cybersecurity is more a question of trusted partnerships, where everyone, from...

Cybersecurity of Online Proctoring Systems

The online proctored examinations are adopted exceedingly in all forms of academic education and professional training. AI with Machine Learning technology take the leading role in supporting authentication, authorization, and operational c...

Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing

On Interpretability of Artificial Neural Networks: A Survey

Deep learning as represented by the artificial deep neural networks (DNNs) has achieved great success recently in many important areas that deal with text, images, videos, graphs, and so on. However, the black-box nature of DNNs has become ...

Joint Optimization of Transform and Quantization for High Efficiency Video Coding

In high efficiency video coding (HEVC), transformation and quantization are separately performed to eliminate the perceptual redundancy of visual signals. However, a uniform quantizer can inevitably degrade the compression efficiency of fix...
