Holographic Mapping of Orbital Angular Momentum using a Terahertz Diffractive Optical Neural Network
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.A compact six‐layer diffractive optical neural network enables direct recognition and spatial mapping of terahertz (THz) orbital angular momentum (OAM) beams. Fabricated by 3D printing, the system distinguishes nine OAM modes and their superpositions with high fidelity, good efficiency, and low crosstalk, offering a scalable solution for THz ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.We demonstrate the direct‐laser patterning of a gold thin film on polymethyl methacrylate to fabricate a temperature sensor for dentures. The temperature sensor‐embedded smart dentures are evaluated in an oral environment, enabling in‐situ monitoring for elderly healthcare.

Human‐in‐the‐Loop Swarms: A Bionic Swarm Approach to Real‐World Soil Mapping
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This article introduces the “Bionic Swarm,” a novel system that lowers the barriers to real‐world swarm validation by abstracting difficult hardware tasks to app‐guided human agents. We demonstrate the system's utility through the experimental validation of a geotechnical soil‐mapping swarm algorithm and show superior performance to baseline approaches

Theoretical and Applied Economics, 2020 Economics, at the macroeconomic level, can be viewed as a complex dynamic system consisting of a multitude of subsystems linked together by direct and indirect connections of different types. This dynamic system forms an economic cybernetic network composed from these subsystems, which evolves according to the economic environment and its own ...
