BACKGROUND: The application of deep learning to retinal photographs has yielded promising results in predicting age, sex, blood pressure, and haematological parameters. However, the broader applicability of retinal photograph-based deep learning for ...
The creation of autonomous subgram microrobots capable of complex behaviors remains a grand challenge in robotics largely due to the lack of microactuators with high work densities and capable of using power sources with specific energies comparable ...
Computer vision systems (CVS) have been shown to be a powerful tool for the measurement of live pig body weight (BW) with no animal stress. With advances in precision farming, it is now possible to evaluate the growth performance of individual pigs m...

We present a novel neural-network-based pipeline for segmentation of 3D muscle and bone structures from localized 2D ultrasound data of the human arm. Building from the U-Net [1] neural network framework, we examine various data augmentation techniqu...
This article presents an active textile braided in three strands with thin McKibben muscle. The fabrication of a textile using thin McKibben muscle as thread can be accomplished using a unique braiding method, developed in this study, to provide an a...
