Ethical Design of Intelligent Assistive Technologies for Dementia: A Descriptive Review.

Science and engineering ethics
The use of Intelligent Assistive Technology (IAT) in dementia care opens the prospects of reducing the global burden of dementia and enabling novel opportunities to improve the lives of dementia patients. However, with current adoption rates being re...

Discovery and Optimization of Materials Using Evolutionary Approaches.

Chemical reviews
Materials science is undergoing a revolution, generating valuable new materials such as flexible solar panels, biomaterials and printable tissues, new catalysts, polymers, and porous materials with unprecedented properties. However, the number of pot...

An Integrated MCDM Model for Conveyor Equipment Evaluation and Selection in an FMC Based on a Fuzzy AHP and Fuzzy ARAS in the Presence of Vagueness.

PloS one
The conveyor system plays a vital role in improving the performance of flexible manufacturing cells (FMCs). The conveyor selection problem involves the evaluation of a set of potential alternatives based on qualitative and quantitative criteria. This...

Engineering neural systems for high-level problem solving.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
There is a long-standing, sometimes contentious debate in AI concerning the relative merits of a symbolic, top-down approach vs. a neural, bottom-up approach to engineering intelligent machine behaviors. While neurocomputational methods excel at lowe...

Fuzzy logic inference-based Pavement Friction Management and real-time slippery warning systems: A proof of concept study.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Minimizing roadway crashes and fatalities is one of the primary objectives of highway engineers, and can be achieved in part through appropriate maintenance practices. Maintaining an appropriate level of friction is a crucial maintenance practice, du...

Robotic Nudges: The Ethics of Engineering a More Socially Just Human Being.

Science and engineering ethics
Robots are becoming an increasingly pervasive feature of our personal lives. As a result, there is growing importance placed on examining what constitutes appropriate behavior when they interact with human beings. In this paper, we discuss whether co...

A New Multivariate Approach for Prognostics Based on Extreme Learning Machine and Fuzzy Clustering.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
Prognostics is a core process of prognostics and health management (PHM) discipline, that estimates the remaining useful life (RUL) of a degrading machinery to optimize its service delivery potential. However, machinery operates in a dynamic environm...
