Autonomous vehicles enable the development of smart warehouses and smart factories with an increased visibility, flexibility and efficiency. Thus, effective and affordable localisation methods for indoor vehicles are attracting interest to implement real-time applications. This paper presents an Extended Kalman Smoother design to both localise a mobile agent and reconstruct its entire trajectory through a sensor-fusion employing the UHF-RFID passive technology. Extensive simulations are carried out by considering the smoother optimal-window length and the effect of missing measurements from reference tags. Monte Carlo simulations are conducted for different vehicle trajectories and for different linear and angular velocities to evaluate the method accuracy. Then, an experimental analysis with a unicycle wheeled robot is performed in real indoor scenario, showing a position and orientation root mean square errors of 15 cm, and 0.2 rad, respectively.

The major problem of the self-shielding methods based on the equivalence principle is the difficulty of calculating the dilution cross section σe with adequate precision. We have proposed a new self-shielding procedure that contains a new technique to calculate dilution cross section. We have compared our method to the generalized Stamm'ler method. Accuracy of each computing approach is determined using reference results obtained from a micro-group slowing-down code named CESCOL.

The latest developments in the smartphone-based skin cancer diagnosis application allow simple ways for portable melanoma risk assessment and diagnosis for early skin cancer detection. Due to the trade-off problem (time complexity and error rate) on using a smartphone to run a machine learning algorithm for image analysis, most of the skin cancer diagnosis apps execute the image analysis on the server. In this study, we investigate the performance of skin cancer images detection and classification on android devices using the MobileNet v2 deep learning model. We compare the performance of several aspects; object detection and classification method, computer and android based image analysis, image acquisition method, and setting parameter. Skin cancer actinic Keratosis and Melanoma are used to test the performance of the proposed method. Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and running time of the testing methods are used for the measurement. Based on the experiment results, the best parameter for the MobileNet v2 model on android using images from the smartphone camera produces 95% accuracy for object detection and 70% accuracy for classification. The performance of the android app for object detection and classification model was feasible for the skin cancer analysis. Android-based image analysis remains within the threshold of computing time that denotes convenience for the user and has the same performance accuracy with the computer for the high-quality images. These findings motivated the development of disease detection processing on android using a smartphone camera, which aims to achieve real-time detection and classification with high accuracy.

To analyse the stress and deformation of a drill pipe during the lowering of a subsea Xmas tree, a mechanical analytical model and equation were established based on Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. The wave phase is selected as one of the variable parameters for analysis of the deformation and stress of the drill pipe. The research results indicate that the maximum response occurs at 0 radians in the scope of 0 to 2π, and the quasistatic nonlinear analysis is analysed at 0. In addition, Orcaflex software is applied for simulation, and the simulation results are compared with the results from proposed method, which demonstrate the model and the method accuracy. Factors that affect the installation process are discussed, such as current velocity, wave height, pipe size, and towing speed. The results show that all factors have remarkable effects on stress and deformation and that the wave height has a lesser effect on the deformation of the drill pipe. The viable towing speed is chosen by discussing the total stress of the drill pipe with various towing speeds and is notably useful for installation in the real sea state.
