This paper describes an approach to terrain identification based on pressure images generated through direct surface contact using a robot skin constructed around a high-resolution pressure sensing array. Terrain signatures for classification are for...
The combination of particle jamming and pneumatics allows the simultaneous control of shape and mechanical properties in a tactile display. A hollow silicone membrane is molded into an array of thin cells, each filled with coffee grounds such that ad...
We present a multiclass fuzzy relevance vector machine (FRVM) learning mechanism and evaluate its performance to classify multiple hand motions using surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals. The relevance vector machine (RVM) is a sparse Bayesian ke...
Multivariate nature of drug loaded nanospheres manufacturing in term of multiplicity of involved factors makes it a time consuming and expensive process. In this study genetic algorithm (GA) and artificial neural network (ANN), two tools inspired by ...
This paper presents a novel algorithm for terrain type classification based on monocular video captured from the viewpoint of human locomotion. A texture-based algorithm is developed to classify the path ahead into multiple groups that can be used to...
Antifouling coating development requires extensive performance testing. Coatings that prevent aquatic larval settlement are of interest because many forms of macrofouling begin at the larval stage. However, field testing can be time consuming and poo...

Coagulation within blood vessels is a major cause of cardiovascular disease and global mortality, highlighting the urgent need for effective anticoagulant strategies. In this study, we introduce a dynamic and highly efficient anticoagulant platform, ...
This article discusses current research on the detection of urinary cancers using surface-enhanced Raman spectral analysis of human serum by Song et al., which was published in the Analytical Chemistry journal. Despite the high performance of the sug...

Bacterial infections have been demonstrated to cause the premature failure of implants. A reliable strategy for preserving biocompatibility is to physically modify the implant surface, without using chemicals, to prevent bacterial adhesion. This stud...
This study employs Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) as feature extractors with appended regression layers for the non-invasive prediction of Cobb Angle (CA) from Surface Topography (ST) scans in adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). The ai...
