Visible watermarking is more user-friendly and intuitive than invisible methods since it allows individuals to identify image ownership with their own eyes rather than relying on machine-based watermark decoders. To enhance the visual quality of watermarked images and ensure the original images can be fully recovered after visible watermark authentication, a visible watermark removal approach using deep learning-based inpainting is proposed in this paper. Experimental results demonstrate that the watermarked images carrying the visible watermark and auxiliary information achieve peak signal-to-noise ratios (PSNRs) ranging from 41.89 dB to 43.17 dB and structural similarity indices (SSIMs) up to 0.97 to 0.98. Furthermore, our hybrid recovery operations enable the complete restoration of the original images, making them easily readable.","PeriodicalId":142483,"journal":{"name":"2023 Sixth International Symposium on Computer, Consumer and Control (IS3C)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115733050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition to manual rehabilitation, exoskeleton systems can also be used to help restore motor function and correct related pains. This study proposed an upper limb exoskeleton system that utilizes surface electromyography (sEMG) signals generated by human muscles as the basis for controlling the exoskeleton. The use of the most direct signal from the wearer’s body allows for more accurate and intuitive control of the exoskeleton. The research primarily focuses on changes in the biceps and deltoid muscles and uses MATLAB to preprocess the signals, including filtering, differentiation, and calculating the root mean square (RMS) value. The support vector machine (SVM) classifier is then used to label and effectively distinguish movements. After experimentation, this method achieves an accuracy of approximately 82%, and it is found that when the system accurately identifies movements, it can assist the wearer in performing rehabilitation-related movements more effectively, improving muscle strength recovery speed and efficiency.","PeriodicalId":142483,"journal":{"name":"2023 Sixth International Symposium on Computer, Consumer and Control (IS3C)","volume":"288 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116580201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this treatise, we present the fabrication and characterization of CuInS2 thin-film solar cells, wherein the composition and structure of CuInS2 layers were prepared through the process of sulfurization of Cu-In precursors. Another research endeavor was dedicated to examining the correlation between cell performance and CuInS2 grain size, which is directly determined by the precursor Cu/In ratio. Our findings reveal that augmenting the precursor Cu/In ratio from 0.75 to 0.82 produced a surge in current density, escalating from 3.39 mA/cm$^{2}$ to a value surpassing 6 mA/cm$^{2}$. Furthermore, we obtained numerous measured parameters that evinced a higher precursor Cu/In ratio to possess the potential to enhance the efficiency of the solar cell. These findings hold immense significance as they suggest the viability of increased efficiency in solar cell performance.","PeriodicalId":142483,"journal":{"name":"2023 Sixth International Symposium on Computer, Consumer and Control (IS3C)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129051660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper designs a depth map estimation method from single-view image by using smartphone camera to generate a 3D image in AR. Some functions are added into AR Depth Lab [7] in a personal computer (PC). Then, the improve AR Depth Lab [7] is installed into the smartphone.

The reason that causes quadcopter aircraft can obtain a balance between the two vehicles is due to the flight principle and material cost. The quadcopter performs attitude calculations based on the sensors configured on the flight controller. Moreover, it is calculated by a three-axis gyroscope and a three-axis accelerometer to achieve directional monitoring of various data (ex: angular rate, acceleration, etc.) of the quadcopter. The stability of the quadcopter and the data reading of the quadcopter. The stability of the quadcopter and the data reading of the sensor analyzed by the IMU (inertial measurement unit) are presented in this paper. Firstly, the angular velocity and acceleration data are read by the Arduino development board embedded with an MPU6050, and the altitude at which the measurement instrument platform is located through the MS5611 barometric pressure and temperature sensor. Then a brushless DC motor attached to the Arduino control is adopted to 4 PWM (Pulse-width modulation) signals via the output port. In order to the electronic governor for controlling the brushless DC motor (Brushless DC Motor), a ready-made remote control is assigned as the transmitter. By using the BLE protocol the 2.4GHz signal is received from the transmitter through the quadcopter receiver. The 2.4GHz signal is used to determine whether the quadcopter can drive the four brushless DC motors at the same time. Finally, the PID (Proportional Integral Derivative) controller is assessed as a parameter adjustment. The collected PID parameter program will be developed in Simulink software as a simulation platform. The software can be based on the hardware platform Arduino mega 2560 PID control programming and can run the Simulink model on Arduino. The operating Arduino modular can also monitor the Arduino itself, and it can immediately make parameter adjustment actions to determine the flight phenomenon of quadrotor UAV, this item is investigative for the future Industrial industry reduce calculation errors when using sensors and controllers, and remote machine module efficacy.","PeriodicalId":142483,"journal":{"name":"2023 Sixth International Symposium on Computer, Consumer and Control (IS3C)","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130420016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contaminants and metallurgical flaws can be introduced into the weld via the welding process and technique. A weak weld causes a welding fault, which weakens the joint. It is described as the location in the welding process that is outside the allowable tolerance. In our research, we have applied data augmentation technique to our dataset. Further, we have used Detectron2 which offers various detection and segmentation algorithms to perform instance segmentation to segment out various defects in the images of welds. We used Slicing Aided Hyper Inference to slice and overlap the images and performed large-scale instance segmentation using Mask R-CNN X101–FPN on 44,339 images.
