Parkinson’s disease (PD) affects a large proportion of elderly people. Symptoms include tremors, slow movement, rigid muscles, and trouble speaking. With the aging of the developed world’s population, this number is expected to rise. The...

Biological principles draw attention to service robotics because of similar concepts when robots operate various tasks. Bioinspired perception is significant for robotic perception, which is inspired by animals’ awareness of the environment. Th...

In an emergency situation, fast and efficient logistics and distribution are essential for minimizing the impact of a disaster and for safeguarding property. When selecting a distribution center location, time satisfaction needs to be considered, in...

The Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm (AOA) is a meta-heuristic algorithm inspired by mathematical operators, which may stagnate in the face of complex optimization issues. Therefore, the convergence and accuracy are reduced. In this paper, an AOA va...

This study aimed to determine the reinforcing effect of two weight ratios of Gum Arabic (GA) natural biopolymer, i.e., 0.5% and 1.0% in the powdered composition of glass ionomer luting cement. GA powder was oxidized and GA-reinforced GIC in 0.5 and 1...

This study proposes a design approach and the development of a low-power planar biped robot named YU-Bibot. The kinematic structure of the robot consists of six independently driven axes, and it weighs approximately 20 kg. Based on biomimetics, the r...

Sea cucumber manual monitoring and fishing present various issues, including high expense and high risk. Meanwhile, compared to underwater bionic robots, employing autonomous underwater robots for sea cucumber monitoring and capture also has drawback...

The formation of bone in a bone defect is accomplished by osteoblasts, while the over activation of fibroblasts promotes fibrosis. However, it is not clear how the extracellular matrix stiffness of the bone-regeneration microenvironment affects the f...

With the rapid development of enabling technologies like VR and AR, we human beings are on the threshold of the ubiquitous human-centric intelligence era. 6G is believed to be an indispensable cornerstone for efficient interaction between humans and...

The detection of multi-class small objects poses a significant challenge in the field of computer vision. While the original YOLOv5 algorithm is more suited for detecting full-scale objects, it may not perform optimally for this specific task. To add...
