Ai-Based Porosity Detection In Babbitt Bore Turning, Kaylee Leggett, Hannah Adams Gemmell, Kaisa Shingleton Jan 2026

Ai-Based Porosity Detection In Babbitt Bore Turning, Kaylee Leggett, Hannah Adams Gemmell, Kaisa Shingleton

Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects

For this project, an external company reached out to the University of Akron requesting assistance with defect detection during their vertical turning operations. As babbitt is removed in a vertical turning process, it occasionally reveals defects, mainly porosity, which can lead to costly downstream failures of the part. Current inspection techniques involve use of dye penetrant, which is time consuming, labor intensive, unergonomic, and a source of human error. The goal of the project is to create an alternative inspection method using an AI-based machine-learning model. After the turning operation, a camera is deployed to perform an in-place inspection, taking …


Skeleton-Based Human Action Recognition Using Spatio-Temporal Latent Features With A Gcn Model, Avazjon Marakhimov, Kabul Khudaybergenov, Mominov Zakhriddin Dec 2025

Skeleton-Based Human Action Recognition Using Spatio-Temporal Latent Features With A Gcn Model, Avazjon Marakhimov, Kabul Khudaybergenov, Mominov Zakhriddin

Chemical Technology, Control and Management

Owing to its resilience to visual noise and viewpoint variations, skeleton-based analysis has become a cornerstone of human action recognition research. Despite its practical significance, existing methodologies often suffer from a reliance on single-stream skeletal representations, which fail to encompass the full complexity of action features. This study introduces Latent Features for Human Action Recognition (LFHAR), a novel architecture designed to overcome these limitations by utilizing diverse spatio-temporal latent representations for improved feature extraction. The approach applies graph-based transformations to individual skeletal frames in temporal sequences, then arranges the derived graph features into spatio-temporal matrices. Evaluation of standard datasets demonstrates …


Algorithms For Assessing Soil Salinity Levels Based On Remote Sensing Imagery, Bobomurod Mamitjonovich Tojiboev Sep 2025

Algorithms For Assessing Soil Salinity Levels Based On Remote Sensing Imagery, Bobomurod Mamitjonovich Tojiboev

Chemical Technology, Control and Management

This article investigates methods for assessing soil salinity levels based on satellite (remote sensing) imagery and their calculation algorithms. Determining the degree of salinity plays a crucial role in the rational use of land resources and increasing agricultural efficiency. The study analyzes indices for determining soil salt content using remote sensing technologies, particularly multispectral images obtained from satellite systems such as Landsat and Sentinel (for example, SI - Salinity Index, NDVI - Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, and others). Furthermore, algorithms are developed based on these indices that enable automatic determination of salinity assessments. Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and geographic information …


Detection Of Http Flood Attacks Based On Machine Learning Algorithms, Norbek Karimov, Furkat Rakhmatov, Oybek Xolmuminov Apr 2025

Detection Of Http Flood Attacks Based On Machine Learning Algorithms, Norbek Karimov, Furkat Rakhmatov, Oybek Xolmuminov

Chemical Technology, Control and Management

This paper analyzes the effectiveness of Random Forest and SVM models for detecting HTTP Flood attacks. Experimental results demonstrate that both models achieve high accuracy. Evaluation was conducted using Precision, Recall, and F1 Score metrics. Additionally, key features of network traffic were extracted through correlation analysis to enable real-time application of the models in attack detection. The findings provide important insights into detecting DDoS attacks using machine learning and improving model performance.


Automated Registration Of Titanium Metal Imaging Of Aircraft Components Using Deep Learning Techniques, Nathan A. Johnston Mar 2023

Automated Registration Of Titanium Metal Imaging Of Aircraft Components Using Deep Learning Techniques, Nathan A. Johnston

Theses and Dissertations

Studies have shown a connection between early catastrophic engine failures with microtexture regions (MTRs) of a specific size and orientation on the titanium metal engine components. The MTRs can be identified through the use of Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) however doing so is costly and requires destruction of the metal component being tested. A new methodology of characterizing MTRs is needed to properly evaluate the reliability of engine components on live aircraft. The Air Force Research Lab Materials Directorate (AFRL/RX) proposed a solution of supplementing EBSD with two non-destructive modalities, Eddy Current Testing (ECT) and Scanning Acoustic Microscopy (SAM). Doing …


Supervised Representation Learning For Improving Prediction Performance In Medical Decision Support Applications, Phawis Thammasorn May 2022

Supervised Representation Learning For Improving Prediction Performance In Medical Decision Support Applications, Phawis Thammasorn

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Machine learning approaches for prediction play an integral role in modern-day decision supports system. An integral part of the process is extracting interest variables or features to describe the input data. Then, the variables are utilized for training machine-learning algorithms to map from the variables to the target output. After the training, the model is validated with either validation or testing data before making predictions with a new dataset. Despite the straightforward workflow, the process relies heavily on good feature representation of data. Engineering suitable representation eases the subsequent actions and copes with many practical issues that potentially prevent the …
