Sunken oil incidents have occurred multiple times in the Bohai Sea over the past ten years. Currently, quick and effective sunken oil detection and classification remains a difficult problem. In this study, sonar detection experiments are conducted t...
Human skin perceives physical stimuli applied to the body and mitigates the risk of physical interaction through its soft and resilient mechanical properties. Social robots would benefit from whole-body robotic skin (or tactile sensors) resembling hu...
Organized assemblies of cells have demonstrated promise as bioinspired actuators and devices; still, the fabrication of such "biorobots" has predominantly relied on passive assembly methods that reduce design capabilities. To address this, we have de...
Acoustic detection technology is a new method for early monitoring of wood-boring pests, and the effective denoising methods are the premise of acoustic detection in forests. This paper used sensors to record larval feeding sounds and various enviro...
Water scarcity as well as social and economic damages caused by the increasing amounts of non-revenue water in the water distribution networks (WDNs) have been prompting innovative solutions. A great deal of potable water is wasted due to leakage in ...

Assessing the severity level of dysarthria can provide an insight into the patient's improvement, assist pathologists to plan therapy, and aid automatic dysarthric speech recognition systems. In this article, we present a comparative study on the cla...
To improve the recognition accuracy of underwater acoustic targets by artificial neural network, this study presents a new recognition method that integrates a one-dimensional convolutional neural network and a long short-term memory network. This ne...

Automatic voice pathology detection is a research topic, which has gained increasing interest recently. Although methods based on deep learning are becoming popular, the classical pipeline systems based on a two-stage architecture consisting of a fea...
Scientific evidence shows that acoustic analysis could be an indicator for diagnosing COVID-19. From analyzing recorded breath sounds on smartphones, it is discovered that patients with COVID-19 have different patterns in both the time domain and fre...
Cell deformability is a useful feature for diagnosing various diseases (e.g., the invasiveness of cancer cells). Existing methods commonly inflict pressure on cells and observe changes in cell areas, diameters, or thickness according to the degree of...
