AbstractAnalyzing a vehicle’s abnormal behavior in surveillance videos is a challenging field, mainly due to the wide variety of anomaly cases and the complexity of surveillance videos. In this study, a novel intelligent vehicle behavior analysis framework based on a digital twin is proposed. First, detecting vehicles based on deep learning is implemented, and Kalman filtering and feature matching are used to track vehicles. Subsequently, the tracked vehicle is mapped to a digital-twin virtual scene developed in the Unity game engine, and each vehicle’s behavior is tested according to the customized detection conditions set up in the scene. The stored behavior data can be used to reconstruct the scene again in Unity for a secondary analysis. The experimental results using real videos from traffic cameras illustrate that the detection rate of the proposed framework is close to that of the state-of-the-art abnormal event detection systems. In addition, the implementation and analysis process show the usability, generalization, and effectiveness of the proposed framework.

By determining membership function of the input parameters and selecting defuzzification method, the evaluation model which can be used to intelligent analyzing the causes of SMT solder joint defects was set up. The fuzzy neural network was trained by using the output variables of the training samples from intelligent discrimination as the input variables of training samples of fuzzy neural network. The fuzzy neural network was tested by using the output variables of the testing samples from intelligent discrimination as the input variables of testing samples of fuzzy neural network. The results show that by using the evaluation model the cause of SMT solder joint defects can be analyzed intelligently and the results of intelligently analysis are reasonable, the evaluation model can be used practically.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the most promising and intriguing innovations of modernity. Its potential is virtually unlimited, from smart music selection in personal gadgets to intelligent analysis of big data and real-time fraud detection and aversion. At the core of the AI philosophy lies an assumption that once a computer system is provided with enough data, it can learn based on that input. The more data is provided, the more sophisticated its learning ability becomes. This feature has acquired the name "machine learning" (ML). The opportunities explored with ML are plentiful today, and one of them is an ability to set up an evolving security system learning from the past cyber-fraud experiences and developing more rigorous fraud detection mechanisms. Read on to learn more about ML, the types and magnitude of fraud evidenced in modern banking, e-commerce, and healthcare, and how ML has become an innovative, timely, and efficient fraud prevention technology.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to set up a new framework to enable direct modifications of volume meshes enriched with semantic information associated to multiple partitions. An instance of filleting operator is prototyped under this framework and presented in the paper. Design/methodology/approach – In this paper, a generic mesh modification operator has been designed and a new instance of this operator for filleting finite element (FE) sharp edges of tetrahedral multi-partitioned meshes is also pro-posed. The filleting operator works in two main steps. The outer skin of the tetrahedral mesh is first deformed to round user-specified sharp edges while satisfying constraints relative to the shape of the so-called Virtual Group Boundaries. Then, in the filleting area, the positions of the inner nodes are relaxed to improve the aspect ratio of the mesh elements. Findings – The classical mainstream methodology for product behaviour optimization involves the repetition of four steps: CAD modelling, meshing of CAD models, enrichment of models with FE simulation semantics and FEA. This paper highlights how this methodology could be simplified by two steps: simulation model modification and FEA. The authors set up a new framework to enable direct modifications of volume meshes enriched with semantic information associated to multiple partitions and the corresponding fillet operator is devised. Research limitations/implications – The proposed framework shows only a paradigm of direct modifications of semantic enriched meshes. It could be further more improved by adding or changing the modules inside. The fillet operator does not take into account the exact radius imposed by user. With this proposed fillet operator the mesh element density may not be enough high to obtain wished smoothness. Originality/value – This paper fulfils an identified industry need to speed up the product behaviour analysis process by directly modifying the simulation semantic enriched meshes.

Within the era of smart factories, concerning the ergonomics related to production processes, the Digital Twin (DT) is the key to set up novel models for monitoring the performance of manual work activities, which are able to provide results in near real time and to support the decision-making process for improving the working conditions. This paper aims to propose a methodological framework that, by implementing a human DT, and supports the monitoring and the decision making regarding the ergonomics performances of manual production lines. A case study, carried out in a laboratory, is presented for demonstrating the applicability and the effectiveness of the proposed framework. The results show how it is possible to identify the operational issues of a manual workstation and how it is possible to propose and test improving solutions.

Abstract Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has been developed as a highly sensitive process in which reactive species are generated from stable precursors (i.e., the ECL-active label) at the surface of an electrode. This new technology has many distinct advantages over other detection systems: no radioisotopes are used; detection limits for label are extremely low (200 fmol/L); the dynamic range for label quantification extends over six orders of magnitude; the labels are extremely stable compared with those of most other chemiluminescent systems; the labels, small molecules (approximately 1000 Da), can be used to label haptens or large molecules, and multiple labels can be coupled to proteins or oligonucleotides without affecting immunoreactivity, solubility, or ability to hybridize; because the chemiluminescence is initiated electrochemically, selectivity of bound and unbound fractions can be based on the ability of labeled species to access the electrode surface, so that both separation and nonseparation assays can be set up; and measurement is simple and rapid, requiring only a few seconds. We illustrate ECL in nonseparation immunoassays for digoxin and thyrotropin and in separation immunoassays for carcinoembryonic antigen and alpha-fetoprotein. The application of ECL for detection of polymerase chain reaction products is described and exemplified by quantifying the HIV1 gag gene.

Obstacle detection is a crucial issue for pilotless device guidance function and it has to be performed with high reliability to avoid any potential collision with the front object. The vision-based obstacle detection systems are regarded perfect for this purpose because they require little on all kind of condition. In this paper, an obstacle detection system using stereo vision sensors and structured light is developed. This system realizes rapid feature matching and high precision measurement distance with the help of structured light, avoiding the time-consuming of the initial corresponding pairs. After the initial detection, the system executes the tracking light strip algorithm for the obstacles. The proposed system can detect a front obstacle in vision field and obtain the size of obstacle. The proposed obstacle detection system is set up and its performance is verified experimentally

In this paper we argue that for the secondary analysis of qualitative data to be effective, researchers need to subject any accompanying interviewer notes to the secondary analysis process. The secondary analysis of interviewer notes can provide important insight into the research process and the attitudes, experiences, and expectations of those collecting the data. Such information is essential if meaningful analyses are to be offered. Using interviewer notes from a little known research project on youth transitions form the 1960s, this paper explores how the interviewers’ experiences of the research process and their perceptions are documented in the interviewer notes.

This paper provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art digital twin and digital thread technology in industrial operations. Both are transformational technologies that have the advantage of improving the efficiency of current design and manufacturing. Digital twin is an important element of the Industry 4.0 digitalization process; however, the huge amount of data that are generated and collected by digital twin offer challenges in handling, processing and storage. The paper aims to report on the development of a new framework that combines the digital twin and digital thread for better data management in order to drive innovation, improve the production process and performance, and to ensure continuity and traceability of information. The digital twin/thread framework incorporated behavior simulation and physical control components, in which these two components rely on the connectivity between the twin and thread for information flow and exchange to drive innovation. The twin/thread framework encompasses specifications that include organizational architecture layout, security, user access, cloud computing set-up, and hardware and software requirements. It is envisaged that the framework will be applicable to enhancing optimization of operational processes and traceability of information in the physical world, especially in Industry Shipyard 4.0.
