Cteno‐Bot: An Untethered Metachronally Swimming Robot With Magnetoactive Propulsors

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
We present Cteno‐bot, an untethered ctenophore‐inspired robot which swims using metachronally coordinated appendages. A single mechanism controls up to 216 magnetoactive propulsors via a dynamically varying magnetic field. We show that the swimming speed of the robot can be increased without a corresponding increase in power requirement, simply by ...

Mitigation of the Effects of Unknown Sea Clutter Statistics by Using Radial Basis Function Network [PDF]

open access: yesRadioengineering, 2020
In this paper, we investigate feasibility of employing Radial Basis Function (RBF) network into non-coherent detection process, for detection of targets embedded in sea clutter of unknown statistics. We particularly have in mind Croatian part of Adriatic

Interpreting How Neural Networks Infer Scatterer Geometry from Echolocation Echoes

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Neural networks enable echolocation‐based shape classification but remain difficult to interpret due to their black‐box nature. This work presents a feature‐importance metric to uncover the echo regions driving decisions in shape‐specialized networks.

Research on Sea Clutter Simulation Method Based on Deep Cognition of Characteristic Parameters

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The development of radar systems requires extensive testing. However, field experiments are costly and time-consuming. Sea clutter simulation is of great significance for evaluating radar system detection performance.

Motion and Morphology Planning for Autonomous Manipulation in Clutter With a Shape‐Shifting, Variable‐Stiffness Robot

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A hybrid mobile robot with a modular Variable‐Stiffness Bridge transitions between a rigid locomotion platform and a flexible, shape‐conforming body. By enclosing objects within its deformable structure rather than relying on dedicated end effectors, the robot achieves orientation‐regulated planar transport, with conformal contact quality shown to ...

Joint Prediction of Sea Clutter Amplitude Distribution Based on a One-Dimensional Convolutional Neural Network with Multi-Task Learning

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Accurate modeling of sea clutter amplitude distribution plays a crucial role in enhancing the performance of marine radar. Due to variations in radar system parameters and oceanic environmental factors, sea clutter amplitude distribution exhibits ...

An ontological morphological phylogenetic framework for living and extinct ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...

Measurement and modelling of bistatic sea clutter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
There is a growing interest in bistatic radars; however, such systems cannot reach their full potential unless the designer has a proper understanding of the environment in which they operate.

Computational fluid dynamics simulations of airflow through the nasal passages of rhinolophoid bats

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The nasal passages of bats that emit their echolocation call through their nostrils have adapted for sound emission as well as standard respiratory and olfactory functions. Rhinolophids, hipposiderids and rhinonycterids all use a high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation strategy.
