Sensing the shape of canine responses to cancer [PDF]
Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Advances in Computer Entertainment Technology, 2015 We conducted a short study investigating the pressure patterns produced by cancer detection dogs via a canine-centered interface while searching samples of amyl acetate. We advance previous work by providing further insights into the potential of the approach for supporting and partly automating the practice of cancer detection with dogs.

Shape-sensing by self-sensing of shape memory alloy instruments for minimal invasive surgery
at - Automatisierungstechnik, 2023 Abstract Shape memory alloy-based flexible instruments have potential for enhancing the safety in minimally invasive surgery compared to passive rigid devices. We developed a data-driven polynomial model to estimate deflection of a 2D bending actuator using electrical resistance.

Shape Sensing with Rayleigh Backscattering Fibre Optic Sensor
Sensors, 2020 In this paper, Rayleigh backscattering sensors (RBS) are used to realize shape sensing of beam-like structures. Compared to conventional shape sensing systems based on fibre Bragg grating (FBG) sensors, RBS are capable of continuous lateral sensing ...

Shape recognition and classification in electro-sensing [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014 Significance Weakly electric fish orient themselves in complete darkness by using their active electrolocation system. They generate a weak electric field and perceive the transdermal potential modulations caused by a nearby target with different electromagnetic properties than the surrounding water. The main result of this paper is a

Movability in the sense of n-shape
Topology and its Applications, 2005 All spaces are assumed to be compact metric ones. The paper deals with movable compact metric spaces, \(n\)-shape, \(n\)-movable spaces, and spaces \textit{movable in the sense of \(n\)-shape}. The latter is defined like ordinary movability, after replacing ordinary homotopy by \(n\)-homotopy: Two mappings \(f, g: X \longrightarrow Y\) are said to be \(
