In this paper, we propose that paper circuitry provides a productive space for exploring aspects of computational thinking, an increasingly critical 21
st century skills for all students. We argue that the creation and operation of paper circuits involve learning about computational concepts such as rule-based constraints, operations, and defined states. Moreover, paper circuitry materials are low cost, provide a low threshold to entry, and draw upon the familiarity that already exists with respect to paper as a hands-on and interactive medium. Paper circuitry thus provides multiple points of entry for students who are unfamiliar with computational thinking ideas while also supporting creative, artistic and crafting activities. It also provides an important alternative to the typically steep learning curve associated with learning a programming language. We define paper circuitry and associated technologies, show how they afford key dimensions of computational thinking, and present examples of paper circuit projects created by students.

The ability of evolutionary algorithms (EAs) to manage a set of solutions, even attending multiple objectives, as well as their ability to optimize any kinds of values, allows them to fit very well some parts of the data‐mining (DM) problems, whose native learning techniques usually associated with the inherent DM problem are not able to solve. Therefore, EAs are widely applied to complement or even replace the classical DM learning approaches. This application of EAs to the DM process is usually named evolutionary data mining (EDM). This contribution aims at showing a glimpse of the EDM field current state by focusing on the most cited papers published in the last 10 years. A descriptive analysis of the papers together with a bibliographic study is performed in order to differentiate past and current trends and to easily focus on significant further developments. Results show that, in the case of the most cited studied papers, the use of EAs on DM tasks is mainly focused on enhancing the classical learning techniques, thus completely replacing them only when it is directly motivated by the nature of problem. The bibliographic analysis is also showing that even though EAs were the main techniques used for EDM, the emergent evolutionary computation algorithms (swarm intelligence, etc.) are becoming nowadays the most cited and used ones. Based on all these facts, some potential further directions are also discussed.

AI stands at the forefront of transforming global industries, achieving remarkable progress in recent years, largely driven by advanced deep learning techniques adept at processing extensive datasets. However, a crucial question arises when confronted with limited and ambiguously characterised data for a novel problem: Can AI maintain its effectiveness under such constraints? This paper delves into addressing this query, emphasising the role of Fuzzy Rule Interpolation (FRI) in enabling approximate reasoning amidst sparse or incomplete knowledge. This becomes particularly significant when traditional rule based inference mechanisms struggle due to misalignment with observations. Extensive research into FRI techniques within computational intelligence has yielded various methodologies. The focus of this paper centres on a notable subset, Transformationbased FRI (T-FRI). T-FRI operates by mathematically adjusting rules that share similarities with unmatched observations, utilising linear transformations of the nearest rules chosen automatically relative to an unmatched observation. Examples are included to showcase the successful applications of T-FRI in tackling challenging real-world problems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The present research work focuses on overcoming cybersecurity problems in the Smart Grid. Smart Grids must have feasible data capture and communications infrastructure to be able to manage the huge amounts of data coming from sensors. To ensure the proper operation of next-generation electricity grids, the captured data must be reliable and protected against vulnerabilities and possible attacks. The contribution of this paper to the state of the art lies in the identification of cyberattacks that produce anomalous behaviour in network management protocols. A novel neural projectionist technique (Beta Hebbian Learning, BHL) has been employed to get a general visual representation of the traffic of a network, making it possible to identify any abnormal behaviours and patterns, indicative of a cyberattack. This novel approach has been validated on 3 different datasets, demonstrating the ability of BHL to detect different types of attacks, more effectively than other state-of-the-art methods.

Active distribution grids that contain energy sources (so-called distributed generation or DG) are nowadays a reality. Besides the many benefits DGs bring to the distribution grid, some challenges are associated with their integration. Since there are DGs now in the distribution grid, the occurrence of islanding operation is possible. Since an islanding operation can be dangerous, it is necessary to have an effective method to detect it. In the last decade, scientists have made a great effort to develop and test various islanding detection methods (IDMs). Many approaches have been tested, and the methods based on computational intelligence (CI) have shown great potential. Among them, artificial neural networks (ANNs) gained most of the research attention. This paper focuses on ANN application for islanding detection. It gives an exhaustive review of the ANN types used for islanding detection, the types of input data, and their transformation to fit the ANNs. Furthermore, various applications based on specific input data, preprocessing types, different learning algorithms, real-time implementation, and various distribution models used for ANN are reviewed. This paper investigates the potential of ANNs to enhance islanding detection accuracy, reduce non-detection zone (NDZ), and contribute to an overall efficient detection method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

10.3390/math9172145 12 Oros G.I. Fuzzy Differential Subordinations Obtained Using a Hypergeometric Integral Operator. In accordance with Zadeh's definition, soft computing (SC) consists of computational techniques in computer science, machine learning, and some engineering disciplines to study, model, and analyze very complex realities, for which more traditional methods have been either unusable or inefficient. HC is bound by a computer science (CS) concept called NP-complete, which means that there is a direct connection between the size of a problem and the amount of resources needed to solve it called the "grand challenge problem". SC uses soft techniques, contrasting it with classical artificial intelligence hard computing (HC) techniques, and includes fuzzy logic, neural computing, evolutionary computation, machine learning, and probabilistic reasoning.

Protein structure prediction is important for understanding their function and behavior. This review study presents a comprehensive review of the computational models used in predicting protein structure. It covers the progression from established protein modeling to state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI) frameworks. The paper will start with a brief introduction to protein structures, protein modeling, and AI. The section on established protein modeling will discuss homology modeling, ab initio modeling, and threading. The next section is deep learning-based models. It introduces some state-of-the-art AI models, such as AlphaFold (AlphaFold, AlphaFold2, AlphaFold3), RoseTTAFold, ProteinBERT, etc. This section also discusses how AI techniques have been integrated into established frameworks like Swiss-Model, Rosetta, and I-TASSER. The model performance is compared using the rankings of CASP14 (Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction) and CASP15. CASP16 is ongoing, and its results are not included in this review. Continuous Automated Model EvaluatiOn (CAMEO) complements the biennial CASP experiment. Template modeling score (TM-score), global distance test total score (GDT_TS), and Local Distance Difference Test (lDDT) score are discussed too. This paper then acknowledges the ongoing difficulties in predicting protein structure and emphasizes the necessity of additional searches like dynamic protein behavior, conformational changes, and protein–protein interactions. In the application section, this paper introduces some applications in various fields like drug design, industry, education, and novel protein development. In summary, this paper provides a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in established protein modeling and deep learning-based models for protein structure predictions. It emphasizes the significant advancements achieved by AI and identifies potential areas for further investigation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

LASER-induced breakdown spectroscopy , *SPECTRUM analysis , *COMPUTATIONAL intelligence , *K-nearest neighbor classification , *SUPPORT vector machines , *PATTERN recognition systems - Abstract
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is an important analysis technique with applications in many industrial branches and fields of scientific research. Nowadays, the advantages of LIBS are impaired by the main drawback in the interpretation of obtained spectra and identification of observed spectral lines. This procedure is highly time-consuming since it is essentially based on the comparison of lines present in the spectrum with the literature database. This paper proposes the use of various computational intelligence methods to develop a reliable and fast classification of quasi-destructively acquired LIBS spectra into a set of predefined classes. We focus on a specific problem of classification of paper-ink samples into 30 separate, predefined classes. For each of 30 classes (10 pens of each of 5 ink types combined with 10 sheets of 5 paper types plus empty pages), 100 LIBS spectra are collected. Four variants of preprocessing, seven classifiers (decision trees, random forest, k-nearest neighbor, support vector machine, probabilistic neural network, multi-layer perceptron, and generalized regression neural network), 5-fold stratified cross-validation, and a test on an independent set (for methods evaluation) scenarios are employed. Our developed system yielded an accuracy of 99.08%, obtained using the random forest classifier. Our results clearly demonstrates that machine learning methods can be used to identify the paper-ink samples based on LIBS reliably at a faster rate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Induction machines (IMs) are utilized in different industrial sectors such as manufacturing, transportation, transmission, and energy due to their ruggedness, low cost, and high efficiency. If IMs fail without advanced warning, unscheduled maintenance needs to be performed, leading to downtime and maintenance costs for asset owners. To avoid these, conducting prognostics and health management (PHM) for IMs is indispensable. There are different PHM methods (expert knowledge, physics-based, and machine learning) to analyze the health and estimate the remaining useful life (RUL) of IMs. It is essential to select appropriate methods and algorithms to solve practical engineering problems by comparing their pros and cons. This paper will systematically summarize the application of the PHM framework to IMs and comprehensively present how to select appropriate general methods as well as specific algorithms applied in the PHM for IMs to solve practical engineering problems, aiming to provide some guidance for future researchers and practitioners.

Forecasting of load is essential for operating power systems. India recently witnessed one of the worst power crisis with the highest ever power demand of 207 GW on April 29, 2022. The demand in the month of May and June 2022 was estimated to reach 215 GW. The peak demand this year 2023, according to the electricity ministry, is predicted to be around 230 GW from April to June. The inability to meet certain fundamental issues as power can take a toll on any country's economy. Proper prediction helps in proper decision making and planning. The main objective of this paper is to predict day ahead electrical load demand for Assam. Statistical and Machine Learning Algorithms has been studied. The study has been carried out using real-time data for the years 2016, 2017 and 2018. The paper presents a detailed analysis of the different hyper parameters of the deep learning models and their effect is seen on the learning efficiency. A novel stacked forecasting model is proposed using neural networks as base learners and CatBoost as the meta-learner. The performance of the proposed model has been evaluated and compared with individual models in terms of training time and accuracy using different error metrics namely MAE, MSE, RMSE, MAPE and R
2 score. A comparison of the proposed prediction model with the prediction models available in literature has been presented. The conclusion states that both the statistical and machine learning algorithms used in this study act as useful tools for daily load forecasting with considerable accuracy; yet machine learning algorithm outperforms the statistical methods. The entire work has been done in Google Colaboratory using Python as the programming language. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Alan Turing's "Computing Machinery and Intelligence," published in 1950, is one of the founding texts in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), although the term was not coined until 1958, 4 years after his death. From the treatment of human intelligence as computational and the brain as mechanical to the comparison of animals to machines to the disregard for the materiality of computers to programming as a stand-in for procreation to fiction-inspired science, many of the core tenets that have shaped the field of AI have their origins in Turing's paper. A close analysis of the paper exposes some of the problematic logic underlying these tenets that are now proving damaging for both society and the planet. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The high expansion of a variable and intermittent nature of distributed generation, such as photovoltaics (PV), can cause technical issues in existing distribution networks (DN). In addition to producing electrical energy, PVs are inverter-based sources, and can help conventional control mechanisms in mitigating technical issues. This paper proposes a multi-stage optimal power flow (OPF)-based mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP) model for improving an operation state in LV PV-rich DN. A conventional control mechanism such as on load tap changer (OLTC) is used in the first stage to mitigate overvoltage caused by PVs. The second stage is related to reducing losses in DN using reactive power capabilities from PVs, which defines the optimization problem as a fully centralized observed from the distribution system operator's (DSO) point of view. The optimization problem is realized under the co-simulation approach in which the power system analyzer and computational intelligence (CI) optimization method interact through an interface. This approach allows keeping the original MINLP model without approximations and using any computational intelligence method. OpenDSS is used as a power system analyzer, while particle swarm optimization (PSO) is used as a CI optimization method in this paper. Detailed case studies are performed and analyzed over a single-day period. To study validation and feasibility, the proposed model is evaluated on the IEEE LV European distribution feeder. The obtained results suggest that a combination of conventional control mechanisms (OLTC) and inverter-based sources (PVs) represent a promising solution for DSO and can serve as an alternative control method in active distribution networks.

Problems related to ventral hernia repairs (VHR) are very common, and evaluating them using computational methods can assist in selecting the most appropriate treatment. This study is based upon data from 3339 patients from different European countries observed during the last 12 years (2012–2023), which were collected by specialists in hernia surgery. Most patients underwent standard surgical procedures, with a growing trend towards laparoscopic surgery. This paper focuses on statistically evaluating the treatment methods in relation to patient age, body mass index (BMI), and the type of repair. Appropriate mathematical methods are employed to extract and classify the selected features, with emphasis on computational and machine-learning techniques. The paper presents surgical hernia treatment statistics related to patient age, BMI, and repair methods. The main conclusions point to mean groin hernia repair (GHR) complications of 19% for patients in the database. The accuracy of separating GHR mesh surgery with and without postoperative complications reached 74.4% using a two-layer neural network classification. Robotic surgeries represent 22.9% of all the evaluated hernia repairs. The proposed methodology suggests both an interdisciplinary approach and the utilization of computational intelligence in hernia surgery, potentially applicable in a clinical setting.

Computational Thinking (CT) has become popular in recent years and has been recognised as an essential skill for all, as members of the digital age. Many researchers have tried to define CT and have conducted studies about this topic. However, CT literature is at an early stage of maturity, and is far from either explaining what CT is, or how to teach and assess this skill. In the light of this state of affairs, the purpose of this study is to examine the purpose, target population, theoretical basis, definition, scope, type and employed research design of selected papers in the literature that have focused on computational thinking, and to provide a framework about the notion, scope and elements of CT. In order to reveal the literature and create the framework for computational thinking, an inductive qualitative content analysis was conducted on 125 papers about CT, selected according to pre-defined criteria from six different databases and digital libraries. According to the results, the main topics covered in the papers composed of activities (computerised or unplugged) that promote CT in the curriculum. The targeted population of the papers was mainly K-12. Gamed-based learning and constructivism were the main theories covered as the basis for CT papers. Most of the papers were written for academic conferences and mainly composed of personal views about CT. The study also identified the most commonly used words in the definitions and scope of CT, which in turn formed the framework of CT. The findings obtained in this study may not only be useful in the exploration of research topics in CT and the identification of CT in the literature, but also support those who need guidance for developing tasks or programs about computational thinking and informatics.

The experimental results presented in the paper and achieved using real datasets from Shanghai Telecom indicate that DQN-ESPA outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms such as the simulated annealing placement algorithm, Top-K placement algorithm, K-Means placement algorithm, and random placement algorithm. High-performance supercomputers and emerging computing clusters created in research and development centres are rapidly increasing available computing power, which scientists are eager to use to implement increasingly advanced computing methods [[1]]. Thus, computationally demanding artificial intelligence algorithms and computational fluid dynamics methods are used more widely to consider complex engineering issues and verify and provide new information on entropy or information theory concepts [[2]]. As can be seen above, the original research articles, as well as review articles focused on optimization by artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms on computational and entropy issues, have been submitted to the Special Issue.

Recent advances in computation technology for decision/simulation and uncertainty analyses have revived interest in the triangular distribution and its use to describe uncertainty of bounded input phenomena. The trapezoidal distribution is a generalization of the triangular distribution that allows for the specification of the modal value by means of a range of values rather than a single point estimate. Whereas the trapezoidal and the triangular distributions are restricted to linear geometric forms in the successive stages of the distribution, the generalized trapezoidal (GT) distribution allows for a nonlinear behavior at its tails and a linear incline (or decline) in the central stage. In this paper we develop two novel elicitation procedures for the parameters of a special case of the GT family by restricting ourselves to a uniform (horizontal) central stage in accordance with the central stage of the original trapezoidal distribution.

In this paper, we describe a review concerning the Quantum Computing (QC) and Deep Learning (DL) areas and their applications in Computational Intelligence (CI). Quantum algorithms (QAs), engage the rules of quantum mechanics to solve problems using quantum information, where the quantum information is concerning the state of a quantum system, which can be manipulated using quantum information algorithms and other processing techniques. Nowadays, many QAs have been proposed, whose general conclusion is that using the effects of quantum mechanics results in a significant speedup (exponential, polynomial, super polynomial) over the traditional algorithms. This implies that some complex problems currently intractable with traditional algorithms can be solved with QA. On the other hand, DL algorithms offer what is known as machine learning techniques. DL is concerned with teaching a computer to filter inputs through layers to learn how to predict and classify information. Observations can be in the form of plain text, images, or sound. The inspiration for deep learning is the way that the human brain filters information. Therefore, in this research, we analyzed these two areas to observe the most relevant works and applications developed by the researchers in the world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In recent advancements within wireless sensor networks (WSN), the deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has emerged as a groundbreaking strategy for enhancing routing efficiency and overall network functionality. This research introduces a sophisticated framework, driven by computational intelligence, that merges clustering techniques with UAV mobility to refine routing strategies in WSNs. The proposed approach divides the sensor field into distinct sectors and implements a novel weighting system for the selection of cluster heads (CHs). This system is primarily aimed at reducing energy consumption through meticulously planned routing and path determination. Employing a greedy algorithm for inter-cluster dialogue, our framework orchestrates CHs into an efficient communication chain. Through comparative analysis, the proposed model demonstrates a marked improvement over traditional methods such as the cluster chain mobile agent routing (CCMAR) and the energy-efficient cluster-based dynamic algorithms (ECCRA). Specifically, it showcases an impressive 15% increase in energy conservation and a 20% reduction in data transmission time, highlighting its advanced performance. Furthermore, this paper investigates the impact of various network parameters on the efficiency and robustness of the WSN, emphasizing the vital role of sophisticated computational strategies in optimizing network operations.

This paper evaluates the potential of using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) approaches for classification of Landsat satellite imagery for environmental coastal mapping. The aim is to identify changes in patterns of land cover types in a coastal area around Cheetham Wetlands, Port Phillip Bay, Australia. The scripting approach of the Geographic Resources Analysis Support System (GRASS) geographic information system (GIS) uses AI-based methods of image analysis to accurately discriminate land cover types. Four ML algorithms are applied, tested and compared for supervised classification. Technical approaches are based on using the 'r.learn.train' module, which employs the scikit-learn library of Python. The methodology includes the following algorithms: (1) random forest (RF), (2) support vector machine (SVM), (3) an ANN-based approach using a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) classifier, and (4) a decision tree classifier (DTC). The tested methods using AI demonstrated robust results for image classification, with the highest overall accuracy exceeding 98% and reached by the SVM and RF models. The presented scripting approach for GRASS GIS accurately detected changes in land cover types in southern Victoria over the period of 2013–2024. From our findings, the use of AI and ML algorithms offers effective solutions for coastal monitoring by analysis of change detection using multi-temporal RS data. The demonstrated methods have potential applications in coastal and wetland monitoring, environmental analysis and urban planning based on Earth observation data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

With the continuous growth of electricity demand, the safe and stable operation of distribution lines is crucial for power transportation. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) inspection has been widely used for the maintenance and repair of distribution lines. Due to the limitations of computational power and endurance, it is difficult for UAVs to independently complete data processing. Combined with mobile edge computing (MEC), this paper proposes a computing offloading strategy based on multi‐agent reinforcement learning and double‐layer offloading mechanism, which can further utilize the computing power of non‐task devices and edge servers. Firstly, three‐layer system architecture, named MEC‐U‐NTDC (MEC‐UAV‐Non‐task Device Cloud), is built. Secondly, double‐layer offloading mechanism is designed to comprehensively utilize the computing power of edge servers and neighbouring non‐task devices. Finally, a multi‐agent algorithm DLMQMIX is proposed to minimize the total cost for UAV inspection. Simulation experiments show that the proposed algorithm can effectively solve the task offloading problem of UAV‐aided distribution line inspection, and compared with algorithms such as PSO, GA, and QMIX, it performs better in terms of average delay, system cost, and load balancing, achieving a smaller total system cost.

The Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machine represents a turning point in today's production which has high requirements for product accuracy. The CNC machine enables a high flexibility in work and time saving and also reduces the time required for product accuracy control. Moreover, the CNC machine is used for several activities, most often for turning, drilling and milling operations. Usually, the productivity of any CNC machine can be increased considering the minimization of the non-productive tool movement. In this paper, the results of a new metaheuristic named Dhouib-Matrix-4 (DM4) with an application on the NP-hard problem based on the Traveling Salesman Problem are presented. DM4 is used for increasing the performance of the CNC Machine by optimizing a tool path length in the drilling process performed on the CNC milling machine. The proposed algorithm (DM4) achieves a solution closed to the optimum, compared with the results obtained with others standard methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The potential impact of autonomous robots on everyday life is evident in emerging applications such as precision agriculture, search and rescue, and infrastructure inspection. However, such applications necessitate operation in unknown and unstructured environments with a broad and sophisticated set of objectives, all under strict computation and power limitations. We therefore argue that the computational kernels enabling robotic autonomy must be scheduled and optimized to guarantee timely and correct behavior, while allowing for reconfiguration of scheduling parameters at runtime. In this paper, we consider a necessary first step towards this goal of computational awareness in autonomous robots: an empirical study of a base set of computational kernels from the resource management perspective. Specifically, we conduct a data-driven study of the timing, power, and memory performance of kernels for localization and mapping, path planning, task allocation, depth estimation, and optical flow, across three embedded computing platforms. We profile and analyze these kernels to provide insight into scheduling and dynamic resource management for computation-aware autonomous robots. Notably, our results show that there is a correlation of kernel performance with a robot's operational environment, justifying the notion of computation-aware robots and why our work is a crucial step towards this goal.

The increasing usage of several nodes to transfer the massive volume of data to the remotes in wireless sensor networks is a challenging task to reduce the loss. The high volumes of data transmission in wireless sensor networks (WSN) can surpass their capacity, resulting in congestion, latency issues, and packet loss. However, computational intelligence (CI) models can aid in managing and creating intelligent networks in WSN. The WSN congestion issues result in information loss and increased energy usage. CI-based models have been used to resolve this issue, reducing the latency. This paper proposes SoftMax Routing with Deep Neural Network (SRDNN) for efficient routing in WSN. This will route the data packets by choosing the high energy and lower load. It consists of two parts, such as the construction of the routing path, which determines the residual energy of the node. It is analyzed using SoftMax routing to decide whether the node is efficient in energy. The route request and reply established various paths between the source and destination. The path with minimum buffer space and maximum bandwidth is chosen in the optimal routing. The simulation results under the metrics such as energy consumption, data loss rate, throughput, and delay show the proposed model performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Outward-bound is of great significance in physical education. How to use the neural network model for the outward-bound evaluation in order to provide trainers and trainees with training parameters that can be referred to for each extension exercise. This not only evaluates the effectiveness of each stretch, but also quantifies various metrics of each stretch, such as safety, efficiency, training intensity, and more. In this paper, we propose an evaluation model for outward-bound based on the neural network which is a computational intelligence method to provide trainers and trainees with training parameters that can be referred to for each extension exercise.

Recent technological advances have enabled the development of sophisticated robotic and sensor systems monitored and controlled by algorithms based on computational intelligence. The deeply intertwined and cooperating devices connected to the Internet and local networks, usually through wireless communication, are increasingly used in systems deployed among people in public spaces. The challenge is to ensure that physical and digital components work together securely, especially as the impact of cyberattacks is significantly increasing. The paper addresses cybersecurity issues of mobile service robots with distributed control architectures. The focus is on automatically detecting anomalous behaviors possibly caused by cyberattacks on onboard and external sensors measuring the robot and environmental parameters. We provide an overview of the methods and techniques for protecting robotic systems. Particular attention is paid to our technique for anomaly detection in a service robot's operation based on sensor readings and deep recurrent neural networks, assuming that attacks result in the robot behaving inconsistently. The paper presents the architecture of two artificial neural networks, their parameters, and attributes based on which the potential attacks are identified. The solution was validated on the PAL Robotics TIAGo robot operating in the laboratory and replicating a home environment. The results confirm that the proposed system can effectively support the detection of computer threats affecting the sensors' measurements and, consequently, the functioning of a service robotic system.

Advances in IoT, AI, Cyber-Physical Systems, Computational Intelligence, and Big Data Analytics require organizations and workforce to be able and willing to learn how to interact with digital technology. In organizations, coordination and cooperation between actors with expertise in business and technology is fundamental, but integration is hard without understanding the terminology and problems of the interlocutor. Epistemic proximity becomes prominent, underlining the importance of an education focused on flexibility, willingness to cope with the unknown, and interdisciplinarity. The main goal of this work is to provide a perspective on how the education system is evolving to support organizations in the digitization era through a quantitative analysis of literature. More than 170,000 papers were selected from the Scopus database, matching a wide set of keywords related with innovation, problem solving, and organizational change. Patterns in the co-occurrence of keywords were studied. In addition, similarities and differences in the distribution of relevant themes across disciplinary areas, as well as their evolution since 2000, were analyzed. Academic interest is found to be generally increasing over the years in all disciplines, although considerable fluctuations can be observed. This variation is found to be nonuniform in the macroareas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Mine pollution from mining activities is often widely recognised as a serious threat to public health, with mine solid waste causing problems such as tailings pond accumulation, which is considered the biggest hidden danger. The construction of tailings ponds not only causes land occupation and vegetation damage but also brings about potential environmental pollution, such as water and dust pollution, posing a health risk to nearby residents. If remote sensing images and machine learning techniques could be used to determine whether a tailings pond might have potential pollution and safety hazards, mainly monitoring tailings ponds that may have potential hazards, it would save a lot of effort in tailings ponds monitoring. Therefore, based on this background, this paper proposes to classify tailings ponds into two categories according to whether they are potentially risky or generally safe and to classify tailings ponds with remote sensing satellite images of tailings ponds using the DDN + ResNet-50 machine learning model based on ML.Net developed by Microsoft. In the discussion section, the paper introduces the environmental hazards of mine pollution and proposes the concept of "Healthy Mine" to provide development directions for mining companies and solutions to mine pollution and public health crises. Finally, we claim this paper serves as a guide to begin a conversation and to encourage experts, researchers and scholars to engage in the research field of mine solid waste pollution monitoring, assessment and treatment.

Background: Drug design is a challenging and important task that requires the generation of novel and effective molecules that can bind to specific protein targets. Artificial intelligence algorithms have recently showed promising potential to expedite the drug design process. However, existing methods adopt multi-objective approaches which limits the number of objectives. Results: In this paper, we expand this thread of research from the many-objective perspective, by proposing a novel framework that integrates a latent Transformer-based model for molecular generation, with a drug design system that incorporates absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity prediction, molecular docking, and many-objective metaheuristics. We compared the performance of two latent Transformer models (ReLSO and FragNet) on a molecular generation task and show that ReLSO outperforms FragNet in terms of reconstruction and latent space organization. We then explored six different many-objective metaheuristics based on evolutionary algorithms and particle swarm optimization on a drug design task involving potential drug candidates to human lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1, a cancer-related protein target. Conclusion: We show that multi-objective evolutionary algorithm based on dominance and decomposition performs the best in terms of finding molecules that satisfy many objectives, such as high binding affinity and low toxicity, and high drug-likeness. Our framework demonstrates the potential of combining Transformers and many-objective computational intelligence for drug design. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main objective of the research presented in the following work was the adaptation of reflection-radar technology in a detection and navigation system using radio-tomographic imaging techniques. As key aspects of this work, the energy optimization of high-frequency transmitters can be considered for use inside buildings while maintaining user safety. The resulting building monitoring and control system using a network of intelligent sensors supported by artificial intelligence algorithms, such as logistic regression or neural networks, should be considered an outcome. This paper discusses the methodology for extracting information from signal echoes and how they were transported and aggregated. The data extracted in this way were used to support user navigation through a building, optimize energy based on presence information, and increase the facility's overall security level. A band from 5 GHz to 6 GHz was chosen as the carrier frequency of the signals, representing a compromise between energy expenditure, range, and the properties of wave behavior in contact with different types of matter. The system includes proprietary hardware solutions that allow parameters to be adjusted over the entire range and guarantee adaptation for RTI (radio tomography imaging) technology.

This paper presents a modular hardware control system tailored for industrial applications. The system presented is designed with electrical protection, guaranteeing the reliable operation of its modules in the presence of various field noises and external disturbances. The modular architecture comprises a principal module (mP) and dedicated expansion modules (mEXs). The principal module serves as the network administrator and facilitates interaction with production and control processes. The mEXs are equipped with sensors, conditioning circuits, analog-to-digital converters, and digital signal processing capabilities. The mEX's primary function is to acquire local processing field signals and ensure their reliable transmission to the mP. Two specific mEXs were developed for industrial environments: an electrical signal expansion module (mSE) and the vibration signals expansion module (mSV). The EtherCAT protocol serves as a means of communication between the modules, fostering deterministic and real-time interactions while also simplifying the integration and replacement of modules within the modular architecture. The proposed system incorporates local and distributed processing in which data acquisition, processing, and data analysis are carried out closer to where data are generated. Locally processing the acquired data close to the production in the mEX increases the mP availability and network reliability. For the local processing, feature extraction algorithms were developed on the mEX based on a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm and a curve-fitting algorithm that accurately represents a given FFT curve by significantly reducing the amount of data that needs to be transmitted over the mP. The proposed system offers a promising solution to use computational intelligence methodologies and meet the growing need for a modular industrial control system with reliable local data processing to reach a smart industry. The case study of acquiring and processing vibration signals from a real cement ball mill showed a good capacity for processing data and reducing the amount of data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

CONVOLUTIONAL neural networks ,BRAIN tumors ,CASCADE connections ,COMPUTATIONAL intelligence ,ARTIFICIAL intelligence - Abstract
According to experts in neurology, brain tumours pose a serious risk to human health. The clinical identification and treatment of brain tumours rely heavily on accurate segmentation. The varied sizes, forms, and locations of brain tumours make accurate automated segmentation a formidable obstacle in the field of neuroscience. U-Net, with its computational intelligence and concise design, has lately been the go-to model for fixing medical picture segmentation issues. Problems with restricted local receptive fields, lost spatial information, and inadequate contextual information are still plaguing artificial intelligence. A convolutional neural network (CNN) and a Mel-spectrogram are the basis of this cough recognition technique. First, we combine the voice in a variety of intricate settings and improve the audio data. After that, we preprocess the data to make sure its length is consistent and create a Mel-spectrogram out of it. A novel model for brain tumor segmentation (BTS), Intelligence Cascade U-Net (ICUNet), is proposed to address these issues. It is built on dynamic convolution and uses a non-local attention mechanism. In order to reconstruct more detailed spatial information on brain tumours, the principal design is a two-stage cascade of 3DU-Net. The paper's objective is to identify the best learnable parameters that will maximize the likelihood of the data. After the network's ability to gather long-distance dependencies for AI, Expectation--Maximization is applied to the cascade network's lateral connections, enabling it to leverage contextual data more effectively. Lastly, to enhance the network's ability to capture local characteristics, dynamic convolutions with local adaptive capabilities are used in place of the cascade network's standard convolutions. We compared our results to those of other typical methods and ran extensive testing utilising the publicly available BraTS 2019/2020 datasets. The suggested method performs well on tasks involving BTS, according to the experimental data. The Dice scores for tumor core (TC), complete tumor, and enhanced tumor segmentation BraTS 2019/2020 validation sets are 0.897/0.903, 0.826/0.828, and 0.781/0.786, respectively, indicating high performance in BTS.
