Negshell casting: 3D-printed structured and sacrificial cores for soft robot fabrication.

PloS one
Soft robot fabrication by casting liquid elastomer often requires multiple steps of casting or skillful manual labor. We present a novel soft robotic fabrication technique: negshell casting (negative-space eggshell casting), that reduces the steps re...

Guided neural style transfer for shape stylization.

PloS one
Designing logos, typefaces, and other decorated shapes can require professional skills. In this paper, we aim to produce new and unique decorated shapes by stylizing ordinary shapes with machine learning. Specifically, we combined parametric and non-...

Revealing cytotoxic substructures in molecules using deep learning.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
In drug development, late stage toxicity issues of a compound are the main cause of failure in clinical trials. In silico methods are therefore of high importance to guide the early design process to reduce time, costs and animal testing. Technical a...

Three-dimensional modelling of wheelchair contrived with lower limb exoskeleton for right hemiplegic dysfunction.

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Part H, Journal of engineering in medicine
Hemiplegia is a type of paralysis that affects one side of the body due to stroke, characterizing severe weakness or rigid movement. Many people of different age groups are affected by this condition which cannot be completely cured but can be minimi...

Big data and artificial intelligence discover novel drugs targeting proteins without 3D structure and overcome the undruggable targets.

Stroke and vascular neurology
The discovery of targeted drugs heavily relies on three-dimensional (3D) structures of target proteins. When the 3D structure of a protein target is unknown, it is very difficult to design its corresponding targeted drugs. Although the 3D structures ...

Bioinspired pursuit with a swimming robot using feedback control of an internal rotor.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Theoretical guarantees of capture become complicated in the case of a swimming fish or fish robot because of the oscillatory nature of the fish heading. Building on the connection between a swimming fish and the canonical Chaplygin sleigh, a novel st...

Artificial intelligence in fixed implant prosthodontics: a retrospective study of 106 implant-supported monolithic zirconia crowns inserted in the posterior jaws of 90 patients.

BMC oral health
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science concerned with building smart software or machines capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. We present a protocol for the use of AI to fabricate im...

CFD-based multi-objective controller optimization for soft robotic fish with muscle-like actuation.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Soft robots take advantage of rich nonlinear dynamics and large degrees of freedom to perform actions often by novel means beyond the capability of conventional rigid robots. Nevertheless, there are considerable challenges in analysis, design, and op...

A Deep Learning Framework for Design and Analysis of Surgical Bioprosthetic Heart Valves.

Scientific reports
Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are commonly used as heart valve replacements but they are prone to fatigue failure; estimating their remaining life directly from medical images is difficult. Analyzing the valve performance can provide better guida...

Exploring fragment-based target-specific ranking protocol with machine learning on cathepsin S.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Cathepsin S (CatS), a member of cysteine cathepsin proteases, has been well studied due to its significant role in many pathological processes, including arthritis, cancer and cardiovascular diseases. CatS inhibitors have been included in D3R-GC3 for...
