Federated Learning-Based Framework to Improve the Operational Efficiency of an Articulated Robot Manufacturing Environment by Junyong So, In-Bae Lee, Sojung Kim

“…The proposed framework consists of two modules: (1) a federated learning module for the cooperative training of multiple joint robots on a part-picking task and (2) an articulated robot control module to balance the efficiency of limited resources. The proposed framework is applied to cases with different numbers of joint robots, and its performance is evaluated in terms of training completion time, resource share ratio, network traffic, and completion time of a picking task. …”

The effects of digital transformation on corporate energy efficiency: a supply chain spillover perspective by Fangfang Song

“…Moreover, both digital finance and public environmental concern show significant positive moderating effects, and digital finance can positively moderate the contribution of corporate digital transformation to the energy efficiency of downstream firms. Finally, we investigate the heterogeneous treatment impact across different firms, and find that the positive effect is more pronounced in a subsample of state-owned and eastern firms, short-distance downstream firms and downstream firms with low-resource endowments.DiscussionTherefore, a platform should be provided for enterprises to promote digital transformation and unblock the conduction path of green innovation and energy structure in order to realize the green transformation of the entire supply chain.…”
