This was facilitated by a low-complexity tool chain for the manufacturing process along the CAD-CAM chain and the process to be executed on the equipment. However, additive processes have grown far beyond the initial FDM processes and also offer more complex materials with unique properties in addition to other processes. The four most common manufacturing processes FDM, SLA, SLS, and SLM were used as a basis, and existing cloud manufacturing platforms offering all these four technologies as a bundle were gathered via a structured survey. Out of 42 platforms, 17 platforms were researched, filtered and analyzed using sample components and a catalog of requirements consisting of five requirement clusters: material, functional scope, final costs, delivery and user-friendliness. The results were weighted for each technology and finally evaluated in an overarching discussion. The achieved scores and the special features of a platform are discussed and a recommendation is made.","PeriodicalId":282635,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 4th Eurasia Conference on IOT, Communication and Engineering (ECICE)","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121506301","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}

We use several methodologies, including gradient varying weighted filter, template matched filter, adaptive threshold, and sliding window to accurately extract the locations and amplitudes of P, Q, R, S, and T peaks, P wave width, and QS width in an ECG complex as basic features. On the other hand, most existing works utilize features of RR intervals, a difference of RR intervals, or amplitude of P wave for AF episode detection. In the proposed algorithm, we exploit the ratio concept to transform basic features into ratio-based features with relative relations because those features are much easier to measure the irregularity of RR intervals and P wave absence precisely in atrial fibrillation episodes. Furthermore, we apply the innovative definition of ratio variation-based features to generate robust and qualitative feature extraction sets. Finally, a rule-based ratio variation hypothesis classifier with techniques of weighted coefficient function, product-form score function, Gini index function, and Gini splitting function is adopted. The performance result of the proposed algorithm, trained and tested in the MIT-BIH AF database, achieves an average sensitivity value of 99.272% and an average specificity value of 98.495%, respectively. The accuracy is superior to that of other various AF episode detection algorithms.","PeriodicalId":282635,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 4th Eurasia Conference on IOT, Communication and Engineering (ECICE)","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122422413","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}

Recently, image classification technology has been widely used. However, a limitation exists in single target recognition and classification tasks for multicategory images. In fruit image classification with complex content of the target image and rich fruit categories, the single use of classification network generation often cannot accurately classify a single-fruit target. To solve this problem, an interactive segmentation-based method for single-category fruit classification in multi-category fruit images is proposed. Herein, an interactive segmentation network and an attention classification network based on deep learning are combined. The interactive segmentation network based on interactive points segments the target to be classified in the image. Then, the classification network identifies and classifies the fruit separately to eliminate the interference of other categories and background information in the image. The classification network is trained on 360 datasets of fruits. The segmentation method before classification can effectively identify single-category fruits in multi-category fruit images. Also, the segmentation and background removal improve the recognition probability of the classification network for a single category of fruit images. Thus, the segmentation method before classification effectively solves single-category fruit classification tasks in multi-category fruit images.","PeriodicalId":282635,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 4th Eurasia Conference on IOT, Communication and Engineering (ECICE)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124228521","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}

Data are also generated at increasing speed, which requires models to be updated regularly, at a significant computational cost. The project Continuously Evolving Distributed Ensembles proposes the creation of a distributed Machine Learning environment, in which datasets are divided into fixed-size blocks, and stored in a fault-tolerant distributed file system with replication. The base-models of the Ensembles, with a 1:1 relationship with data blocks, are then trained in a distributed manner, according to the principle of data locality. Specifically, the system is able to select which data blocks to use and in which nodes of the cluster, in order to minimize training time. A similar process takes place when making predictions: the best base-models are selected in real-time, according to their predictive performance and to the state of the nodes where they reside. This paper addresses the problem of assigning base model training tasks to cluster nodes, adhering to the principle of data locality. We present an instance generator and three datasets that will provide a means for comparison while studying other solution methods. For testing the system architecture, we solved the datasets with an exact method and the computational results validate, to comply to the project requirements, the need for a more stable and less demanding (in computational resource terms) solution method.","PeriodicalId":282635,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 4th Eurasia Conference on IOT, Communication and Engineering (ECICE)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114772989","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}

Among them, the use of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) has become a crucial equipment in the industry that many manufacturers have widely used. AGVs are unmanned vehicles that can travel according to a program or a predetermined path. AGVs can replace the original logistics, shortens the handling time greatly, and enhances the competitiveness of enterprises.This research focuses on the introduction of LM in an automobile oil seal manufacturing industry in Taiwan and focuses on improving logistics efficiency. It uses Value Stream Mapping (VSM) to discuss the logistics problems existing on the production line and proposes specific improvement plans. This study aims to improve logistics efficiency using AGVs and logistics improvement based on its cooperation with Jidoka. This study proposes a new route transportation method, which uses multiple AGVs to perform transportation tasks at the same time, combined with Karakuri’s base-running path transportation mode of multi-functional racks.The results include (1) proposing a new route transportation method, AGVs combined with Karakuri’s running route transportation mode; (2) saving two full-time logistics manpower; and (3) increasing the Cycle Time (CT) to within 5 minutes.","PeriodicalId":282635,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 4th Eurasia Conference on IOT, Communication and Engineering (ECICE)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116598249","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}

Taking a toggle clamping mechanism of an injection molding machine as the sensing subject, we performed analytical research and verified the weight changes of the product. Comparisons were made with sensor data acquired from molds and the tie bar of the molding system at the same time. Also, different parameters were used for researching the injection/packing process and the resulting stress-strain variations on the toggle mechanism (relevant processes include clamping force, injection speed, and packing switch-over position). The results show that(1) changes of sustained force are successfully sensed and monitored via a real-time sensor module installed on the toggle mechanism, (2) alterations of packing switch-over position, packing pressure as well as injection speed correlate to the toggle mechanism force variation and the melt filling pressure inside the cavity, and (3) toggle mechanism force variations observed positively correlate to product appearance and weight.","PeriodicalId":282635,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 4th Eurasia Conference on IOT, Communication and Engineering (ECICE)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122705077","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}
