Autonomous Intuition for Advanced Manufacturing Systems: Benefits and Tradeoffs of Presampling for Autonomous Parameterization

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Sampling a design space to target a class of possible desirable outcomes, creating an artificial intuition, can accelerate future optimizations to those targets. This is tested experimentally with parameterization to achieve various geometries of freestanding structures using direct ink write (DIW) 3D printing.

Widened Attention‐Enhanced Atrous Convolutional Network for Efficient Embedded Vision Applications under Resource Constraints

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The article introduces WACEfNet, a new convolutional neural network architecture optimized for efficient aerial image analysis under resource constraints. It creatively integrates attention mechanisms and atrous convolutions into a compact widened residual network framework.

Rapid and Reversible Morphing to Enable Multifunctionality in Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article introduces a rapid, reversible, and repeatable morphing robot through a bistable latch‐mediated, spring actuated (LaMSA) mechanism. This enables an untethered, multifunctional robot to near‐instantaneously (< 50 ms) and reversibly switch between a flying and driving configuration to navigate through different environments.

Multifunctional Position and Stiffness Control of Soft Fluidic Actuators Using Supercooled Liquid

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work explores the use of supercooled liquid as a multifunctional working fluid for soft actuators to allow independent control of position and stiffness; the solution is used to both inflate the elastomer chambers while in liquid state and to achieve a dramatic increase in stiffness (up to 13 times) with rapid, reversible crystallization.

Decreasing the Cost of Morphing in Adaptive Morphogenetic Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Shape‐morphing propulsive limbs enhance locomotion across land‐to‐water transitions, but prior designs rely on thermally responsive components, coupling performance to environmental temperature. This study introduces a pressure‐responsive mechanism that reduces morphing energy costs, enables rapid transitions, and minimizes failure modes.

Energy‐Efficient Knapsack Optimization Using Probabilistic Memristor Crossbars

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The knapsack problem, a nondeterministic polynomial‐time (NP)‐hard combinatorial optimization problem, is solved energy‐efficiently. This work presents an algorithm‐hardware co‐design and implementation for practical (non‐ideal) NP‐hard problems with destabilizing self‐feedback (non‐zero diagonal) and non‐binary Hamiltonian representations under analog
