In-situ Monitoring on Micro-hardness of Laser Molten Zone on AISI4140 Steel by Spectral Analysis
摘要: The real-time monitoring technology plays a significant role in the field of laser aided manufacturing. It not only ensures the product quality, but also saves time and expenditure on the subsequent testing. To develop a method to monitor the properties of laser molten zone, in this paper, the AISI4140 steel samples were melted by laser with different parameters. At the same time, the plasma spectra were detected during real-time laser processing. The evolutions for both emission spectra and hardness of molten zone were researched in this work. To correlate the intensity of spectral line with the hardness of molten zone, the method of dimensionless analysis was used in this experiment. As the results shown, in a dimensionless system, there was a linear correlation between dimensionless micro-hardness of molten zone (H*) and dimensionless laser energy density(ln(δ*)); the dimensionless micro-hardness could be expressed by a piecewise function using dimensionless intensity of Fe I spectral lines(I*), dimensionless velocity(v*) and dimensionless laser energy density as variables; depending on the quantitative relation among all dimensionless, a monitoring system of hardness of molten zone was established; by testing under different parameters of laser processing, the mean error of prediction is lower than 3.1%. It means the emission spectroscopy can be a potential way to monitor the properties of parts prepared by laser processing.

摘要: Fast precise point positioning (Fast-PPP) is a satellite-based navigation technique using an accurate real-time ionospheric modeling to achieve high accuracy quickly. In this paper, an end-to-end performance assessment of Fast-PPP is presented in near-maximum Solar Cycle conditions; from the accuracy of the Central Processing Facility corrections, to the user positioning. A planetary distribution of permanent receivers including challenging conditions at equatorial latitudes, is navigated in pure kinematic mode, located from 100 to 1300 km away from the nearest reference station used to derive the ionospheric model. It is shown that satellite orbits and clocks accurate to few centimeters and few tenths of nanoseconds, used in conjunction with an ionosphere with an accuracy better than 1 Total Electron Content Unit (16 cm in L1) reduce the convergence time of dual-frequency Precise Point Positioning, to decimeter-level (3-D) solutions. Horizontal convergence times are shortened 40% to 90%, whereas the vertical components are reduced by 20% to 60%. A metric to evaluate the quality of any ionospheric model for Global Navigation Satellite System is also proposed. The ionospheric modeling accuracy is directly translated to mass-market single-frequency users. The 95th percentile of horizontal and vertical accuracies is shown to be 40 and 60 cm for single-frequency users and 9 and 16 cm for dual-frequency users. The tradeoff between the formal and actual positioning errors has been carefully studied to set realistic confidence levels to the corrections.

摘要: The design and real-time hardware-in-the-loop implementation of a hybrid synchrophasors and GOOSE-based automatic synchronization algorithm are presented in this paper. Automatic synchronization is performed by utilizing the synchrophasor measurements from two commercial phasor measurement units (PMUs), while the coordinated control commands to automatic voltage regulator and/or turbine governor control and trip command to the circuit breaker are issued using IEC 61850-8-1 GOOSE messages. The algorithm is deployed inside the PMU using the protection logic equations, and direct communication between the PMUs is established to minimize the communication latencies. In addition, the algorithm is tested using a standard protection relay test-set, and automatic test sequences are executed to validate its performance. It is concluded that the hybrid synchrophasor and GOOSE-based automatic synchronization scheme ensures minimum communication latencies, reduces equipment cost, facilitates interoperability, and performs automatic reconnection adequately.

Real-Time 3D Reconstruction of Thin Surface Based on Laser Line Scanner
摘要: The truncated signed distance field (TSDF) has been applied as a fast, accurate, and flexible geometric fusion method in 3D reconstruction of industrial products based on a hand-held laser line scanner. However, this method has some problems for the surface reconstruction of thin products. The surface mesh will collapse to the interior of the model, resulting in some topological errors, such as overlap, intersections, or gaps. Meanwhile, the existing TSDF method ensures real-time performance through significant graphics processing unit (GPU) memory usage, which limits the scale of reconstruction scene. In this work, we propose three improvements to the existing TSDF methods, including: (i) a thin surface attribution judgment method in real-time processing that solves the problem of interference between the opposite sides of the thin surface; we distinguish measurements originating from different parts of a thin surface by the angle between the surface normal and the observation line of sight; (ii) a post-processing method to automatically detect and repair the topological errors in some areas where misjudgment of thin-surface attribution may occur; (iii) a framework that integrates the central processing unit (CPU) and GPU resources to implement our 3D reconstruction approach, which ensures real-time performance and reduces GPU memory usage. The proposed results show that this method can provide more accurate 3D reconstruction of a thin surface, which is similar to the state-of-the-art laser line scanners with 0.02 mm accuracy. In terms of performance, the algorithm can guarantee a frame rate of more than 60 frames per second (FPS) with the GPU memory footprint under 500 MB. In total, the proposed method can achieve a real-time and high-precision 3D reconstruction of a thin surface.

摘要: The effective use of data within intensive care units (ICUs) has great potential to create new cloud-based health analytics solutions for disease prevention or earlier condition onset detection. The Artemis project aims to achieve the above goals in the area of neonatal ICUs (NICU). In this paper, we proposed an analytical model for the Artemis cloud project which will be deployed at McMaster Children’s Hospital in Hamilton. We collect not only physiological data but also the infusion pumps data that are attached to NICU beds. Using the proposed analytical model, we predict the amount of storage, memory, and computation power required for the system. Capacity planning and tradeoff analysis would be more accurate and systematic by applying the proposed analytical model in this paper. Numerical results are obtained using real inputs acquired from McMaster Children’s Hospital and a pilot deployment of the system at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) in Toronto.

摘要: Cardiovascular diseases are projected to remain the single leading cause of death globally. Timely diagnosis and treatment of these diseases are crucial to prevent death and dangerous complications. One of the important tools in early diagnosis of arrhythmias is analysis of electrocardiograms (ECGs) obtained from ambulatory long-term recordings. The design of novel patch-type ECG recorders has increased the accessibility of these long-term recordings. In many applications, it is furthermore an advantage for these devices that the recorded ECGs can be analyzed automatically in real time. The purpose of this study was therefore to design a novel algorithm for automatic heart beat detection, and embed the algorithm in the CE marked ePatch heart monitor. The algorithm is based on a novel cascade of computationally ef?cient ?lters, optimized adaptive thresholding, and a re?ned search back mechanism. The design and optimization of the algorithm was performed on two different databases: The MIT-BIH arrhythmia database (Se = 99.90%, P+ = 99.87) and a private ePatch training database (Se = 99.88%, P+ = 99.37%). The of?ine validation was conducted on the European ST-T database (Se = 99.84%, P+ = 99.71%). Finally, a double-blinded validation of the embedded algorithm was conducted on a private ePatch validation database (Se = 99.91%, P+ = 99.79%). The algorithm was thus validated with high clinical performance on more than 300 ECG records from 189 different subjects with a high number of different abnormal beat morphologies. This demonstrates the strengths of the algorithm, and the potential for this embedded algorithm to improve the possibilities of early diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

摘要: In this paper, Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS) is introduced for controlling the Pac-Man character in the real-time game Ms Pac-Man. MCTS is used to find an optimal path for an agent at each turn, determining the move to make based on the results of numerous randomized simulations. Several enhancements are introduced in order to adapt MCTS to the real-time domain. Ms Pac-Man is an arcade game, in which the protagonist has several goals but no conclusive terminal state. Unlike games such as Chess or Go there is no state in which the player wins the game. Instead, the game has two subgoals, 1) surviving and 2) scoring as many points as possible. Decisions must be made in a strict time constraint of 40 ms. The Pac-Man agent has to compete with a range of different ghost teams, hence limited assumptions can be made about their behavior. In order to expand the capabilities of existing MCTS agents, four enhancements are discussed: 1) a variable-depth tree; 2) simulation strategies for the ghost team and Pac-Man; 3) including long-term goals in scoring; and 4) reusing the search tree for several moves with a decay factor. The agent described in this paper was entered in both the 2012 World Congress on Computational Intelligence (WCCI’12, Brisbane, Qld., Australia) and the 2012 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games (CIG’12, Granada, Spain) Pac-Man Versus Ghost Team competitions, where it achieved second and first places, respectively. In the experiments, we show that using MCTS is a viable technique for the Pac-Man agent. Moreover, the enhancements improve overall performance against four different ghost teams.

Analytic Thermal Model of an Optical Fiber Based Gamma Thermometer and its Application in a University Research Reactor
摘要: Dynamic magnetic resonance (MR)-imaging can provide functional and positional information in real-time, which can be conveniently used online to control a cancer therapy, e.g., using high intensity focused ultrasound or radio therapy. However, a precise real-time correction for motion is fundamental in abdominal organs to ensure an optimal treatment dose associated with a limited toxicity in nearby organs at risk. This paper proposes a real-time direct principal component analysis (PCA)-based technique which offers a robust approach for motion estimation of abdominal organs and allows correcting motion related artifacts. The PCA was used to detect spatio-temporal coherences of the periodic organ motion in a learning step. During the interventional procedure, physiological contributions were characterized quantitatively using a small set of parameters. A coarse-to-fine resolution scheme is proposed to improve the stability of the algorithm and afford a predictable constant latency of 80 ms. The technique was evaluated on 12 free-breathing volunteers and provided an improved real-time description of motion related to both breathing and cardiac cycles. A reduced learning step of 10 s was sufficient without any need for patient-specific control parameters, rendering the method suitable for clinical use.

摘要: Industrial networks demand centrally controlled quality of service (QoS), often in the form of hard real-time guarantees. Software-defined networking (SDN) provides a convenient paradigm for central QoS control. However, existing SDN-based solutions cannot guarantee hard real-time QoS as they rely on a control loop over the forwarding (data) and control planes. We propose a novel SDN-based QoS control framework that maintains an accurate network model through network calculus to avoid a control loop over forwarding and control planes, allocates resources to and routes flows over a network of “queue links,” whereby each physical network link houses multiple queue links (with different QoS levels), and manages QoS through a function split between delay-constrained least-cost routing on the network of queue links and the resource allocation to the queue links. This function split greatly reduces the computational complexity while achieving hard real-time QoS with high bandwidth utilization. Our evaluation results indicate that our function split approach allows for online runtime admission control and can achieve bandwidth utilization above 80% while meeting deterministic real-time QoS requirements.
