Machine Vision Techniques for the Evaluation of Animal Behaviour [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Over the last few decades the nature of farming has changed dramatically with small labour intensive farms being replaced by large, highly automated farms. With this change in the way things are done comes a new concern for animal welfare.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Welding deviation measurement method based on molten pool image analysis

open access: yesHanjie xuebao
During full-position gas arc welding at the consumable arc welding electrode of pipes, different azimuth angles of the pipe have different effects on the shape of the molten pool, and the trailing angle of the molten pool is closely related to the ...

Piezoresistivity Enhancement by Graphite Flake Alignment in Thin Composite Films for Dielectric Elastomer Switches

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article presents dielectric elastomer switch (DES) materials, based on composite thin films. Alignment of graphite flakes due to their physical confinement within the thin films lead to much stronger piezoresistive responses than bulk composites, while their durability exceeds that of conventional liquid‐based DES materials.

Logitwise Distillation Network: Improving Knowledge Distillation via Introducing Sample Confidence

open access: yesApplied Sciences
While existing knowledge distillation (KD) methods typically force students to mimic teacher features without considering prediction reliability, this practice risks propagating the teacher’s erroneous supervision to the student.
