Potholes that happen to appear in the road must be repaired to keep the road in good condition. Spotting potholes on the road is difficult, especially in a country like India where roads stretch millions of kilometres across the country. Therefore, there is a need to automate the identification of potholes with high speed and real-time precision. YOLOX is an object detection algorithm and our main goal of this article is to train and analyse the YOLOX model for pothole detection. The YOLOX model is trained with a pothole dataset and the results obtained are analysed by calculating the accuracy, recall and size of the model which is then compared to other YOLO algorithms. The experimental results in this article show that the YOLOX-Nano model predicts potholes with higher accuracy compared to other models while having low computational costs. We were able to achieve an Average Precision (AP) value of 85.6% from training the model and the total size of the model is 7.22 MB. The pothole detection capabilities of the newly developed YOLOX algorithm have never been tested before and this paper is one of the first to detect potholes using the YOLOX object detection algorithm. The research conducted in this paper will help reduce costs and increase the speed of pothole identification and will be of great help in road maintenance.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43684-022-00037-z.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"52856349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A nonlinear optimal control approach is proposed for the dynamic model of the 4-DOF underactuated tower crane. The dynamic model of the robotic crane undergoes approximate linearization around a temporary operating point that is recomputed at each time-step of the control method. The linearization relies on Taylor series expansion and on the associated Jacobian matrices. For the linearized state-space model of the system a stabilizing optimal (H-infinity) feedback controller is designed. To compute the controller’s feedback gains an algebraic Riccati equation is repetitively solved at each iteration of the control algorithm. The stability properties of the control method are proven through Lyapunov analysis. The proposed control approach is advantageous because: (i) unlike the popular computed torque method for robotic manipulators, the new control approach is characterized by optimality and is also applicable when the number of control inputs is not equal to the robot’s number of DOFs, (ii) it achieves fast and accurate tracking of reference setpoints under minimal energy consumption by the robot’s actuators, (iii) unlike the popular Nonlinear Model Predictive Control method, the article’s nonlinear optimal control scheme is of proven global stability and convergence to the optimum.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43684-022-00040-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44027859","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As HAVs will be equipped with different driving automation levels, they should be capable to dynamically adapt their Level of Autonomy (LoA), in order to tackle sudden and recurrent changes in their environment (i.e., inclement weather, complex terrain, unexpected on-road obstacles, etc.). In this respect, HAVs should be able to respond not only on causal reasoning effects, which depend on present and past inputs from the external driving environment, but also on non-causal reasoning situations depending on future states associated with the external driving scene. On the other hand, driver’s personal preferences and profile characteristics should be assessed and managed properly, in order to enhance travel experience. In the light of the above, the present paper aims to tackle these challenges on how cognitive computing enables HAVs to operate each time in the best available LoA by responding quickly to changing environment situations and driver’s preferences. On this basis, an in-vehicle cognitive functionality is introduced, which collects data from various sources (sensor and driver layers), intelligently processing it to the decision-making layer, and finally, selecting the optimal LoA by integrating previous knowledge and experience. The overall approach includes the identification and utilization of a hybrid (data-driven and event-driven) algorithmic process towards reaching intelligent and proactive decisions. An indicative discrete event simulation analysis showcases the efficiency of the developed approach in proactively adapting the vehicle’s LoA.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43684-022-00035-1.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45449081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The failure modes are mainly fusion welding and explosion, and a few are unable to switch on. In this study, a data-driven approach is proposed to predict the remaining useful life (RUL) of the low-voltage contactor. Firstly, the three-phase alternating voltage and current records the life of electrical equipment by tracking the number of times it has been operated. Secondly, the failure-relevant features are extracted by using the time domain, frequency domain, and wavelet methods. Then, a CNN-LSTM network is designed and used to train an electrical equipment RUL prediction model based on the extracted features.

In this work, we propose a novel dynamic customer requirement mining method to analyze the dynamic changes of customer satisfaction of product attributes based on sentiment and attention expressed in online reviews, aiming to better meet customer requirements and provide the direction and content of future product improvement. Specifically, this method is divided into three parts. Firstly, text mining is adopted to collect online review data of multi-generation products and identify product attributes. Secondly, the attention and sentiment scores of product attributes are calculated with a natural language processing tool, and further integrated into the corresponding satisfaction scores. Finally, the improvement direction for next-generation products is determined based on the changing satisfaction scores of multi-generation product attributes. In addition, a case study on multi-generation phone products based on online reviews was conducted to illustrate the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed methodology.
