Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: The traditional parallel solving methods for the ordinary differential equations mainly include the task-oriented parallelism and the method-oriented parallelism. However, these two solving algorithms have serious shortcomings, which can only use CPU resource or just design for the homogeneous form of ODE(ordinary differential equations) clusters. By using RIDC(revisionist integral deferred correction) algorithm, a hybrid solver based on CPU and GPU multi-target machine is designed, which solves the differential equation system based on the pipeline form. Meanwhile, the parallel calculation within a single equation group and between the different equation groups is realized, which can give full play to the …

Practical Considerations And Applications For Autonomous Robot Swarms, Rory Alan Hector
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
In recent years, the study of autonomous entities such as unmanned vehicles has begun to revolutionize both military and civilian devices. One important research focus of autonomous entities has been coordination problems for autonomous robot swarms. Traditionally, robot models are used for algorithms that account for the minimum specifications needed to operate the swarm. However, these theoretical models also gloss over important practical details. Some of these details, such as time, have been considered before (as epochs of execution). In this dissertation, we examine these details in the context of several problems and introduce new performance measures to capture practical …

To better understand this phenomenon, the present study explores how college students develop expectations (or anticipations) about a machine teacher, particularly an AI teaching assistant. Specifically, the study examines whether students’ previous experiences with online courses taught by a human teacher would influence their expectations about AI teaching assistants in future online courses. An online survey was conducted to collect data from college students in the United States. Findings indicate that positively experienced social presence of a human teacher helps develop positive expectations about an …
Sex With Robots And Human-Machine Sexualities: Encounters Between Human-Machine Communication And Sexuality Studies, Marco Dehnert
Sex With Robots And Human-Machine Sexualities: Encounters Between Human-Machine Communication And Sexuality Studies, Marco Dehnert
Human-Machine Communication
Sex robots are a controversial topic. Understood as artificial-intelligence enhanced humanoid robots designed for use in partnered and solo sex, sex robots offer ample opportunities for theorizing from a Human-Machine Communication (HMC) perspective. This comparative literature review conjoins the seemingly disconnected literatures of HMC and sexuality studies (SeS) to explore questions surrounding intimacy, love, desire, sex, and sexuality among humans and machines. In particular, I argue for understanding human-machine sexualities as communicative sexuotechnical-assemblages, extending previous efforts in both HMC and SeS for more-than-human, ecological, and more fluid approaches to humans and machines, as well as to sex and sexuality. This …

I Get By With A Little Help From My Bots: Implications Of Machine Agents In The Context Of Social Support, Austin Beattie, Andrew C. High
Human-Machine Communication
In this manuscript we discuss the increasing use of machine agents as potential sources of support for humans. Continued examination of the use of machine agents, particularly chatbots (or “bots”) for support is crucial as more supportive interactions occur with these technologies. Building off extant research on supportive communication, this manuscript reviews research that has implications for bots as support providers. At the culmination of the literature review, several propositions regarding how factors of technological efficacy, problem severity, perceived stigma, and humanness affect the process of support are proposed. By reviewing relevant studies, we integrate research on human-machine and supportive …

Considering The Context To Build Theory In Hci, Hri, And Hmc: Explicating Differences In Processes Of Communication And Socialization With Social Technologies, Andrew Gambino, Bingjie Liu
Human-Machine Communication
The proliferation and integration of social technologies has occurred quickly, and the specific technologies with which we engage are ever-changing. The dynamic nature of the development and use of social technologies is often acknowledged by researchers as a limitation. In this manuscript, however, we present a discussion on the implications of our modern technological context by focusing on processes of socialization and communication that are fundamentally different from their interpersonal corollary. These are presented and discussed with the goal of providing theoretical building blocks toward a more robust understanding of phenomena of human-computer interaction, human-robot interaction, human-machine communication, and interpersonal …

Visual Homing For Robot Teams: Do You See What I See?, Damian Lyons, Noah Petzinger
Faculty Publications
Visual homing is a lightweight approach to visual navigation which does not require GPS. It is very attractive for robot platforms with a low computational capacity. However, a limitation is that the stored home location must be initially within the field of view of the robot. Motivated by the increasing ubiquity of camera information we propose to address this line-of-sight limitation by leveraging camera information from other robots and fixed cameras. To home to a location that is not initially within view, a robot must be able to identify a common visual landmark with another robot that can be used …

With the advances of scanning sensors and deep learning algorithms, computational pathology has drawn much attention in recent years and started to play an important role in the clinical workflow. Computer-aided detection (CADe) systems have been developed to assist pathologists in slide assessment, increasing diagnosis efficiency and reducing misdetections. In this study, we conducted four experiments to demonstrate that the features learned by deep learning models are interpretable from a pathological perspective. In addition, classifiers such as the support vector machine (SVM) and random forests (RF) were used in experiments to replace the fully connected layers and decompose the end-to-end …
Improving Feature Generalizability With Multitask Learning In Class Incremental Learning, Dong Ma, Chi Ian Tang, Cecilia Mascolo
Improving Feature Generalizability With Multitask Learning In Class Incremental Learning, Dong Ma, Chi Ian Tang, Cecilia Mascolo
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Many deep learning applications, like keyword spotting [1], [2], require the incorporation of new concepts (classes) over time, referred to as Class Incremental Learning (CIL). The major challenge in CIL is catastrophic forgetting, i.e., preserving as much of the old knowledge as possible while learning new tasks. Various techniques, such as regularization, knowledge distillation, and the use of exemplars, have been proposed to resolve this issue. However, prior works primarily focus on the incremental learning step, while ignoring the optimization during the base model training. We hypothesise that a more transferable and generalizable feature representation from the base model would …

Medical devices have historically been less regulated than their drug and biologic counterparts. A benefit of this less demanding regulatory regime is facilitating innovation by making new devices available to consumers in a timely fashion. Nevertheless, there is increasing concern that this approach raises serious public health and safety concerns. The Institute of Medicine in 2011 published a critique of the American pathway allowing moderate-risk devices to be brought to the market through the less-rigorous 501(k) pathway,1 flagging a need for increased postmarket review and surveillance. High-profile recalls of medical devices, such as vaginal mesh products, along with reports globally …

Research On 3d Path Planning Algorithm Based On Fast Rrt Algorithm, Zhaoqiang Li, Shiyu Zhang
Research On 3d Path Planning Algorithm Based On Fast Rrt Algorithm, Zhaoqiang Li, Shiyu Zhang
Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: RRT (rapidly exploring random tree) algorithm is a sampling-based path planning algorithm, which can search a path in high-dimensional environment. The traditional RRT algorithm has the problems of low node utilization and large amount of calculation. To solve these problems, the fast RRT* (Quick RRT*) algorithm is improved by optimizing the strategy of reselection of parent node and pruning range, improving the sampling method and introducing adaptive step size, which makes the algorithm time-consuming and path length shorter. At the same time, the node connection screening strategy is added to eliminate the excessive turning angle in the path. …
