Distributed AutoML framework for multi‐objective optimization of concrete crack segmentation models

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring cracks in concrete surfaces is essential for structural safety. While machine vision techniques have received significant interest in this domain, selecting optimal models and tuning hyperparameters remain challenging. This paper proposes a Distributed Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) framework for efficiently designing and ...

A Correspondence Between Distances and Embeddings for Manifolds: New Techniques for Applications of the Abstract Boundary

open access: yes, 2011
We present a one-to-one correspondence between equivalence classes of embeddings of a manifold (into a larger manifold of the same dimension) and equivalence classes of certain distances on the manifold.

The variability of muscle–blubber interface temperature with activity level in a captive Risso’s dolphin (Grampus griseus)

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry
Background To reduce heat loss underwater, marine mammals cover their bodies with insulation. Cetaceans in particular rely solely on blubber for insulation which has low conductivity.
