Microfluidic impedance cytometry is a label-free technique for high-throughput single-cell analysis. Multi-frequency impedance measurements provide data that allows full characterisation of cells, linking electrical phenotype to individual biophysica...
Series elastic actuation (SEA) is an interaction control paradigm that relies on a compliant force sensing element and utilizes the model of this compliant dynamics in closed-loop force control. We present sufficient conditions for passivity of SEA u...
Continuous blood pressure (BP) measurement is crucial for long-term cardiovascular monitoring, especially for prompt hypertension detection. However, most of the continuous BP measurements rely on the pulse transit time (PTT) from multiple-channel ph...
This paper focuses on the impedance control for robotic manipulators with time-varying output constraints. High-order control barrier functions (HoCBFs) are firstly proposed for a nonlinear system with high relative-degree time-varying constraints. T...
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Body composition and anthropometry assessment from two-dimensional smartphone images is possible through advancement of computational hardware and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. This study established agreement of a n...
Faults in distribution networks occur unpredictably, causing a threat to public safety and resulting in power outages. Automated, efficient, and precise detection of faulty sections could be a major element in immediately restoring networks and avoid...
Single-cell impedance flow cytometry (IFC) is emerging as a label-free and non-invasive method for characterizing the electrical properties and revealing sample heterogeneity. At present, most IFC studies utilize phenomenological parameters (, impeda...
