Abstract In recent years, early detection and warning of fires have posed a significant challenge to environmental protection and human safety. Deep learning models such as Faster R-CNN (Faster Region based Convolutional Neural Network), YOLO (You Only Look Once), and their variants have demonstrated superiority in quickly detecting objects from images and videos, creating new opportunities to enhance automatic and efficient fire detection. The YOLO model, especially newer versions like YOLOv10, stands out for its fast processing capability, making it suitable for low-latency applications. However, when applied to real-world datasets, the accuracy of fire prediction is… More >

Abstract Considering experimental testing data is costly, and sensor data is often sparse, while simulation analysis provides overall strength information with lower accuracy, a digital twin framework is proposed for full-field structural strength assessment and prediction. The framework is mainly divided into two stages. In the offline stage, the simulation model of the structure is established, and the sensor layouts are completed. Then, the DNN pre-training model is constructed based on the reduced simulation data. In the online stage, the experimentally measured data are predicted to obtain the time-series sensors data, and the traditional transfer learning… More >

Abstract Identifying objects in real-time is a technology that is developing rapidly and has a huge potential for expansion in many technical fields. Currently, systems that use image processing to detect objects are based on the information from a single frame. A video camera positioned in the analyzed area captures the image, monitoring in detail the changes that occur between frames. The You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm is a model for detecting objects in images, that is currently known for the accuracy of the data obtained and the fast-working speed. This study proposes a comprehensive More >

Abstract Traditional topology optimization methods often suffer from the “dimension curse” problem, wherein the computation time increases exponentially with the degrees of freedom in the background grid. Overcoming this challenge, we introduce a real-time topology optimization approach leveraging Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks with Gradient Penalty (CGAN-GP). This innovative method allows for nearly instantaneous prediction of optimized structures. Given a specific boundary condition, the network can produce a unique optimized structure in a one-to-one manner. The process begins by establishing a dataset using simulation data generated through the Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization (SIMP) method. Subsequently, we More >

Abstract As computer graphics technology continues to advance, Collision Detection (CD) has emerged as a critical element in fields such as virtual reality, computer graphics, and interactive simulations. CD is indispensable for ensuring the fidelity of physical interactions and the realism of virtual environments, particularly within complex scenarios like virtual assembly, where both high precision and real-time responsiveness are imperative. Despite ongoing developments, current CD techniques often fall short in meeting these stringent requirements, resulting in inefficiencies and inaccuracies that impede the overall performance of virtual assembly systems. To address these limitations, this study introduces a… More >

Abstract Analyzing physical activities through wearable devices is a promising research area for improving health assessment. This research focuses on the development of an affordable and real-time Human Activity Recognition (HAR) system designed to operate on low-performance microcontrollers. The system utilizes data from a body-worn accelerometer to recognize and classify human activities, providing a cost-effective, easy-to-use, and highly accurate solution. A key challenge addressed in this study is the execution of efficient motion recognition within a resource-constrained environment. The system employs a Random Forest (RF) classifier, which outperforms Gradient Boosting Decision Trees (GBDT), Support Vector Machines… More >

Abstract Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are materials used to connect components to one another to form a working circuit. PCBs play a crucial role in modern electronics by connecting various components. The trend of integrating more components onto PCBs is becoming increasingly common, which presents significant challenges for quality control processes. Given the potential impact that even minute defects can have on signal traces, the surface inspection of PCB remains pivotal in ensuring the overall system integrity. To address the limitations associated with manual inspection, this research endeavors to automate the inspection process using the YOLOv8… More >
