Integrating Reinforcement Learning With Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Real‐Time Clinical Decision Support in Dynamic Healthcare Environments

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A hybrid Reinforcement Learning–Explainable AI framework integrates SHAP and LIME explanations directly into a Deep Q‐Network inference loop for real‐time ICU decision support. Trained on 18 142 mechanically ventilated stays from the eICU database, the system attains 93.0% decision accuracy, 20% fewer errors than RL alone, and a 91% clinician trust ...

Lab‐Scale Fabrication Process Selection for Soft Robotics: Benchmarking, Tradeoffs, and Guidelines for Formative Manufacturing of Soft Silicone Components

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Fabrication shapes soft robot performance, but benchmarking data and selection guidelines remain scarce. We fabricate silicone actuators using two molding techniques and three mold types, characterizing them with cycle testing, microscopy, profilometry, and 3D imaging. Applying our lab‐scale, soft robotics‐specific fabrication evaluation criteria shows

Anion–π Interaction‐Regulated Ion Generation and High Piezoionic Response in Ultrasoft Low‐Salinity Hydrogels

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The first hydrogel system employing anion–π interactions as a central design motif is developed. The cooperative aromatic–phosphate interaction motif provides dynamic cohesion and is proposed to regulate the separation and transport of water‐derived ionic species, achieving high piezoionic response in injectable, self‐healing, ultrasoft, low‐salinity ...

Towards Human‐Centered Intelligent Inhabitable Spaces: A Review

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This review introduces Robot‐Rooms as a new category of architectural‐scale robots that do not operate within a space but actively form and reconfigure the space around their occupants. Drawing from robotics, HCI, architecture, and the arts, an interdisciplinary framework is proposed that maps the enabling technologies and integration challenges ...

HeaTrace: A Parametric Design‐to‐Fabrication Workflow for Thermally Programmable Soft Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A programmable thermal actuation workflow enables soft robots to be designed and fabricated with embedded heaters that drive multiple responses. By combining performance‐driven heater design with multimaterial fabrication, the system supports thermally triggered shape change, stiffness tuning, and thermochromic visual response, as demonstrated through ...

‘Hurry Up and Get Me out of Here’: The Experience of People Under 65 Years (Still) Stuck in Aged Care

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, the Australian Government set a target for no‐one under 65 years of age to be living in residential aged care (RAC) by 2025. The numbers of young people in residential aged care (YPIRAC) have significantly declined since the start of the targets.
