Abstract Vibration measurement and monitoring are essential in a wide variety of applications. Vibration measurements are critical for diagnosing industrial machinery malfunctions because they provide information about the condition of the rotating equipment. Vibration analysis is considered the most effective method for predictive maintenance because it is used to troubleshoot instantaneous faults as well as periodic maintenance. Numerous studies conducted in this vein have been published in a

Fluorescent molecular rotors (FMRs) can act as viscosity sensors in various media including subcellular organelles and microfluidic channels. In FMRs, the rotation of rotators connected to a fluorescent π-conjugated bridge is suppressed by increasing environmental viscosity, resulting in increasing fluorescence (FL) intensity. In this minireview, we describe recently developed FMRs including push-pull type π-conjugated chromophores, meso-phenyl (borondipyrromethene) (BODIPY) derivatives, dioxabo

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the severe health issues and is one of the most common types of heart diseases. It is the most frequent cause of mortality across the globe due to the lack of a healthy lifestyle. Owing to the fact that a heart attack occurs without any apparent symptoms, an intelligent detection method is inescapable. In this article, a new CHD detection method based on a machine learning technique, e.g., classifier ensembles, is dealt with. A two-tier ensemble is built, w

Abstract The recent advances in artificial intelligence have already begun to penetrate our daily lives. Even though the development is still in its infancy, it has been shown that it can outperform human beings even in terms of intelligence (e.g., AlphaGo by DeepMind), implying a massive potential for its broader application in various industrial sectors. In particular, the growing public interest in industry 4.0, which focuses on revolutionizing the traditional manufacturing scene, has stimula

Voice changes may be the earliest signs in laryngeal cancer. We investigated whether automated voice signal analysis can be used to distinguish patients with laryngeal cancer from healthy subjects. We extracted features using the software package for speech analysis in phonetics (PRAAT) and calculated the Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) from voice samples of a vowel sound of /a:/. The proposed method was tested with six algorithms: support vector machine (SVM), extreme gradient boost

The recent increase in application of Additive Manufacturing (AM) products has resulted in new demands throughout the industry. Although FDM-based products are used in various fields, the mechanical properties of such products still tend to be weaker than that of the products manufactured through conventional manufacturing processes. Therefore, improving the mechanical properties of FDM-printed products is a key factor that can greatly contribute to the manufacturing industry. In this study, ten

Steel defect diagnostics is considerably important for a steel-manufacturing industry as it is strongly related to the product quality and production efficiency. Product quality control suffers from a real-time diagnostic capability since it is less-automatic and is not reliable in detecting steel surface defects. In this study, we propose a relatively new approach for diagnosing steel defects using a deep structured neural network, e.g., convolutional neural network (CNN) with class activation

Abstract The digitized format of microstructures, or digital microstructures, plays a crucial role in modern-day materials research. Unfortunately, the acquisition of digital microstructures through experimental means can be unsuccessful in delivering sufficient resolution that is necessary to capture all relevant geometric features of the microstructures. The resolution-sensitive microstructural features overlooked due to insufficient resolution may limit one’s ability to conduct a thorough mic

Discrimination of ovarian tumors is necessary for proper treatment. In this study, we developed a convolutional neural network model with a convolutional autoencoder (CNN-CAE) to classify ovarian tumors. A total of 1613 ultrasound images of ovaries with known pathological diagnoses were pre-processed and augmented for deep learning analysis. We designed a CNN-CAE model that removes the unnecessary information (e.g., calipers and annotations) from ultrasound images and classifies ovaries into fiv

Diagnostic sensitivity and classification of small bowel lesions using a convolutional neural network are improved by the independent training for hemorrhagic and ulcerative lesions. Grad-CAM is highly effective in localizing the lesions.
