Emerging applications of autonomous robots requiring stability and reliability cannot afford component failure to achieve operational objectives. Hence, identification and countermeasure of a fault is of utmost importance in mechatronics community. T...
This paper presents a novel method for nonprehensile manipulation of parts on a circularly oscillating platform when the effective coefficient of dry friction between the part and the platform is being dynamically controlled. Theoretical and experime...
Deep learning based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) has been successfully applied to stereo matching. Compared with the traditional method, the speed and accuracy of this method have been greatly improved. However, the existing stereo matchin...
Social media has become an ideal platform for the propagation of rumors, fake news, and misinformation. Rumors on social media not only mislead online users but also affect the real world immensely. Thus, detecting the rumors and preventing their spr...
The current study aimed in enhancing the efficiency of alkaline treatment for CECs remediation in biosolids through the application of RSM and ANN. Due to the seasonal variation of CECs in biosolids, a complete CECs profile over a period of three yea...
Many uncertain factors exist in the water resource systems, leading to dynamic characteristics of the water distribution process. Especially for the watershed including irrigation area with multiple water sources and water users, it is complicated th...
Searching for new high temperature superconductors has long been a key research issue. Fe-based superconductors attract researchers' attention due to their high transition temperature, strong irreversibility field, and excellent crystallographic symm...
Forecasting the evolution of contagion dynamics is still an open problem to which mechanistic models only offer a partial answer. To remain mathematically or computationally tractable, these models must rely on simplifying assumptions, thereby limiti...
The COVID-19 pandemic has impelled the majority of schools and universities around the world to switch to remote teaching. One of the greatest challenges in online education is preserving the academic integrity of student assessments. The lack of dir...
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) lending provides convenient and efficient financing channels for small and medium-sized enterprises and individuals, and therefore it has developed rapidly since entering the market. However, due to the imperfection of the credit s...
