The algorithm relies on one of the most commonly used machine learning algorithms, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), for extracting the patterns of various defected and nondefected railway track components including rail fasteners and joints like fishplate. The algorithm ensures a very fast yet robust feature extraction workflow primarily by virtue of its inherently offered dimensionality reduction resulting in lesser computational burden. The classification task is handled by the Euclidean distance classifier that identifies the nearest neighbor of the test image in the subspace spanned by the most dominant eigenvectors extracted from the training dataset during feature extraction workflow. Two varying railway track datasets, from Bangladesh and Pakistan, have been used in this work to validate the proposed algorithm using standard training to test ratios. Multiple classification scenarios are presented and analyzed in detail for both datasets with supporting results. MATLAB_R2022a has been used for development of the proposed algorithms that offers an overall efficiency of more than ninety percent under varying scenarios.","PeriodicalId":447565,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Robotics and Automation in Industry (ICRAI)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121560691","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}

Increases in crop yield has been achieved through a variety of agricultural practices thanks to the discoveries of various agricultural experts. The planting process is the one that has the greatest impact on the crop's overall health. The hull can be more precisely prepared for the seed-planting trench with the assistance of furrows. A variety of furrow openers are currently undergoing the implantation process. Studying dynamic systems that are discontinuous in nature can be done with the help of discrete element modelling. The simulation of a tine-shaped furrow opener using the EDEM package software was carried out for three different speeds. When the speed of an object increases, so does the force it exerts on it. Additionally, the length of an object has an effect on the force it exerts. Additionally, taken into consideration were the profiles that were generated in the soil. To carry out statistical validation of the results analysis of variation (ANOVA) was done. The results provided a basis for calculating a confidence level of 95%. For the furrow openers, it was suggested that a speed of 0.495 meters per second, which is equivalent to 1.76 kilometers per hour, be used.","PeriodicalId":447565,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Robotics and Automation in Industry (ICRAI)","volume":"138 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128389332","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 propose a solution to the housekeeping problem that utilizes the expressiveness of action language C+ to formalize actions and compute an action plan. To check for feasibility in the real world, we execute the action plans in a physics simulator, GAZEBO. We also propose benchmark instances for the housekeeping domain and evaluate our planning and execution times approach.

In order to determine the most advantageous methods in this field, numerous techniques and studies have been carried out over the past few years. It should be mentioned that the majority of these cardiovascular illnesses are treatable with earlier detection and prediction. This paper suggests using an automated methodology to predict and classify the likelihood of cardiac arrests in a patient. Due to their collection from various sources, the Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are initially preprocessed by normalizing them to the [0 1] range. The significant features from these preprocessed signals are then extracted using Mel-Frequency Cepstrum (MFCC), Melspectrogram, MFCC Delta 1 & 2, MFCC Merge File, etc. We also propose a novel feature vector using ensemble of MFCC features. The features are then classified using Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), TPOT and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN). The proposed vector outperformed all other feature vectors and obtained highest accuracy of 95.8% via ANN. The study is conducted using publicly accessible dataset composed of approximately 52 thousand ECG signals. The suggested strategy is compared with existing techniques and the results indicate the robustness and effectiveness of our approach. Therefore, the proposed methodology can be effectively deployed in a clinical setting to classify ECG data and identify the risks likelihood of cardiac arrests in a patient.","PeriodicalId":447565,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Robotics and Automation in Industry (ICRAI)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132927770","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}

Approximately, 1.2 million cases of pneumonia have been reported in children of age ranges from 1 to 5. Out of 1.2 million, 880,000 died in 2016. Therefore, pneumonia is considered a major cause of mortality among children, particularly, in South Asia as well as African countries. It is among the top ten causes of mortality in developed countries, namely, the UK, the USA, and other European countries. However, an early diagnosis and treatment can significantly minimize the death rates among children in those countries that have a high prevalence. The research community has worked to diagnose the patients using traditional and deep learning (DL)-based methods; however, the existing approaches have various limitations in terms of accurate detection of the patients. Therefore, to address the above problem, we have presented a novel DL-based framework, BactPNet, for the detection of bacterial pneumonia patients. Our approach has achieved an accuracy of 91.98%, precision is 90%, recall is 84%, and F1-score is 86%. The above results of our approach confirm that it can be utilized to enhance the diagnosis of pneumonia from the chest x-ray images. By adopting the BactPNet, the quality of treatment and correct prediction can further be improved. More specifically, experimental findings and comparative assessment with other techniques show that BactPNet can better detect pneumonia patients and can be adopted by medical experts in hospitals.","PeriodicalId":447565,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Robotics and Automation in Industry (ICRAI)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123698286","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}
