Targeting early-stage architectural design, we introduce ArchiDiff, a platform for 3D architectural form generation and editing from images to point clouds. First, we curated a dataset specifically tailored for architectural design, ArchiCloudNet. Second, we proposed a 3D generation method using a conditional denoising diffusion model, with an arbitrary object segmentation model to enhance recognition capabilities in complex input. Finally, we incorporate an interactive feature enabling instantaneous 2D image editing through simple drag-and-drops with simultaneous updates to 3D forms, giving designers improved control. We evaluated ArchiDiff’s generation accuracy against cutting-edge baselines on ArchiCloudNet and two other datasets, RealCity3D and BuildingNet. We also validated it with real sketches from early-stage architectural design. The experiments indicated that our model could generate accurate architectural point clouds, providing rapid-response modification and effective processing of complex backgrounds.

It focuses on enhancing user experience while maintaining high security standards. The complexity of intelligent industrial environments introduces various challenges, including vulnerabilities caused by faults that can propagate across multiple layers and heterogeneous systems. Predictive maintenance becomes more complicated due to the need for advanced monitoring across interconnected systems, and the dynamic nature of these environments demands seamless adaptation. This is essential for fostering harmony between human operators and intelligent systems in real-time. However, the increasing complexity of these environments reveals the limitations of the current HCI models, making adaptability a basic requirement. This paper carries a complete 141-paper review regarding research on HCI along with a detailed exposition of the core architecture, enabling technologies, and real-world application examples. Furthermore, it presents an innovative conceptual model for implementing an HCI system that dynamically adapts to environmental changes, user behavior, diverse user profiles, and varying accessibility needs, specifically within the context of fault detection and diagnosis systems. The proposed approach has been rigorously validated through empirical studies, demonstrating its effectiveness and practical applicability. To improve resiliency and efficiency in such a smart industrial system as is vulnerable, the interface would adapt itself to user behavior and diversity. It addresses the challenges that arise during this dynamic and complex environment that would ensure a secure and seamless interaction.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55219,"journal":{"name":"Computers in Industry","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 104268"},"PeriodicalIF":8.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143518965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Vision-based displacement monitoring techniques have advantages, such as full-field coverage, high precision, real-time feedback, and automation. However, existing methods still face two key problems that limit their field application: a) an inherent trade-off between measurement range and accuracy, and b) the effect of environmental disturbance on observation platform stability. This paper proposes a camera-chain-based multipoint displacement measurement system for long-span beam bridges. The system primarily consists of double-head camera stations linked by artificial markers. By connecting the optical paths of the camera stations in the physical setup and compensating for motion-induced errors in the measurement model, the system can be deployed along a deformed beam to enable synchronized dynamic measurements at multiple points. Comparative field tests demonstrate that the displacement measurements obtained from this system are consistent with those from traditional methods, such as manual leveling and automated connecting pipe systems, while providing advantages in terms of dynamic monitoring and the breadth of measurement parameters. Benefiting from real-time multipoint measurement, the system captures detailed spatial deformation curves. In addition, the observed vehicle-induced evolution of bridge deflection aligns well with the recorded vehicle speed and can be used to evaluate the modal parameters of beam bridges. The proposed method and system can provide new options and better data for bridge displacement monitoring to support the accuracy and timeliness of safety warnings.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55219,"journal":{"name":"Computers in Industry","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 104271"},"PeriodicalIF":8.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143511814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the critical components of this technology, dynamic obstacle avoidance in complex agricultural environments serves as the foundation for enhancing the autonomy and safety of these robots. The Dynamic Window Approach (DWA) is a widely recognized method for achieving local obstacle avoidance. It operates by sampling the robot's velocity space and then evaluating the sampled trajectories using a value function to determine the optimal velocity pair. However, a significant limitation of the traditional DWA method lies in its fixed weights for the value function, which restricts its performance to manual tuning and renders it less adaptable to intricate and dynamic obstacle environments. To address this limitation, we introduced an innovative approach by integrating the Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (TD3) method into the weight determination process of the DWA algorithm's value function. This integration enabled the weight coefficients to adapt dynamically in response to environmental variations, thereby enhancing the algorithm's flexibility and effectiveness. Our extensive simulation and field testing revealed that while the traditional DWA algorithm struggled to navigate complex dynamic obstacle environments, the proposed TD3-DWA algorithm achieved a success rate of over 90 % in obstacle avoidance. This outcome underscored the algorithm's adaptability and robustness, positioning it as a reliable solution for ensuring safe and efficient navigation in agricultural robotics.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55219,"journal":{"name":"Computers in Industry","volume":"167 ","pages":"Article 104272"},"PeriodicalIF":8.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143508518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When these goals are not met, multiple changes to the settings might be necessary, which is time-consuming because each adjustment requires waiting for the new steady-state condition. A digital twin that quickly provides key performance indicators in steady-state as a function of these settings can speed up this task. The settings can be manually simulated before being adopted, or the digital twin can be integrated into an optimizer to automatically suggest optimal values to the operator, who ultimately makes the final decision. Despite advances in approaches to design such digital twins, most studies lack strategies to update the models when the plant behavior changes, and often overlook constraints and human-centric aspects of the plant operation. To address these gaps, we present a framework for training, tuning, and updating models for supporting the selection of process settings in continuous manufacturing. By directly mapping the steady-state conditions as a function of process settings, our approach enables informed decision-making and paves the way towards process optimization without requiring modifications to the plant control software, a crucial factor in established plants to ensure safety. We propose an interpretable model architecture, and a training process that incorporates both data and prior physical knowledge. Triggers detect deviations between the models’ predictions and the plant condition, in order to start model updates. The procedure for updating the models is tuned to perform consistently well in a variety of conditions, based on substantial simulations in historical data. To select the triggers, we balance technical and human aspects, by considering the trade-off between frequent model updates, increasing operator workload with frequent settings changes, versus how closely the models track the plant conditions. The framework is applied to five different stages of the fiberboard production process in a 1.4-year dataset, to predict key energy and quality-related variables as a function of process settings. The results show that the models, when connected to the data stream, are effectively updated when needed, show high sensitivity to the process settings and consistency with the available physical knowledge, making them well-suited to support the selection of process settings.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55219,"journal":{"name":"Computers in Industry","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 104267"},"PeriodicalIF":8.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143488703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prediction-based compensatory control represents a crucial approach to enhancing robot accuracy. The extant machining error prediction methods are beset with shortcomings, including inadequate feature extraction, limited generalizability with respect to working conditions, and the squandering of knowledge. Therefore, the influence mechanisms of robot errors by different working conditions and spatial ontology properties are explored in this paper. A spatial-temporal dual-view error prediction model is constructed for a single condition. Moreover, an innovative unsupervised generalized prediction strategy of machining error for new conditions under the historical task knowledge distillation of Multi-Teacher-Single-Student (MTSS) is proposed. This strategy enables the extraction and reuse of knowledge at three levels: teacher-teaching, student-learning, and generalized expansion. It also ensures the high-precision, lightweight, and high-efficiency prediction of machining error for unseen conditions. The proposed method was validated on constructed complex part inner wall features. The minimum mean absolute error (MAE) indicator for single condition prediction is 0.005 mm, which is a significantly more accurate result than other methods under comparison. Furthermore, the average MAE of unsupervised generalization for new conditions is 0.019 mm, which meets the practical application requirements. Furthermore, the distilled model complexity is reduced by 75 %, and the average inference efficiency is enhanced by over 95 %. This provides the potential for lightweight online deployment.
