Sensor Selection With Composite Features in Identifying User-Intended Poses for Human-Prosthetic Interfaces by Tianshi Yu, Alireza Mohammadi, Ying Tan, Peter Choong, Denny Oetomo

“…This is in contrast to the conventional methods where each degree of freedom of the powered prosthesis is mapped to the input of one/a pair of sensors. In this approach, it is necessary to systematically select sensors that carry the most information for the intended set of poses, to improve system accuracy and/or minimise the number of sensors, thus the complexity, in the prosthetic system. …”

AI‐Based Digital Rocks Augmentation and Assessment Metrics by Lei Liu, Bernard Chang, Maša Prodanović, Michael J. Pyrcz

“…We evaluate topology‐based metrics for quality assessment of AI‐based image augmentation, coupled with digital rocks augmentation practice using the Single image Generative Adversarial Network (SinGAN) for binarized (segmented) images. Compared to most traditional dimensionality reduction methods that process images into a flattened vector, we propose topological image analysis for dimensionality reduction while preserving the essential geometric and topological features of the high‐dimensional data. …”
