The continuous development of deep learning improves target detection technology day by day. The current research focuses on improving the accuracy of target detection technology, resulting in the target detection model being too large. The number of parameters and detection speed of the target detection model are very important for the practical application of target detection technology in embedded systems. This article proposed a real-time target detection method based on a lightweight convolutional neural network to reduce the number of model parameters and improve the detection speed. In this article, the depthwise separable residual module is constructed by combining depthwise separable convolution and non–bottleneck-free residual module, and the depthwise separable residual module and depthwise separable convolution structure are used to replace the VGG backbone network in the SSD network for feature extraction of the target detection model to reduce parameter quantity and improve detection speed. At the same time, the convolution kernels of 1 × 3 and 3 × 1 are used to replace the standard convolution of 3 × 3 by adding the convolution kernels of 1 × 3 and 3 × 1, respectively, to obtain multiple detection feature graphs corresponding to SSD, and the real-time target detection model based on a lightweight convolutional neural network is established by integrating the information of multiple detection feature graphs. This article used the self-built target detection dataset in complex scenes for comparative experiments; the experimental results verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method.

Path Planning Optimization of Intelligent Vehicle Based on Improved Genetic and Ant Colony Hybrid Algorithm

Intelligent vehicles were widely used in logistics handling, agriculture, medical service, industrial production, and other industries, but they were often not smooth enough in planning the path, and the number of turns was large, resulting in high energy consumption. Aiming at the unsmooth path planning problem of four-wheel intelligent vehicle path planning algorithm, this article proposed an improved genetic and ant colony hybrid algorithm, and the physical model of intelligent vehicle was established. This article first improved ant colony optimization algorithm about heuristic function with the adaptive change of evaporation factor. Then, it improved the genetic algorithm on fitness function, adaptive adjustment of crossover factor, and mutation factor.

The simulation environment for this article is windows 10, the processor is Intel Core i5-5257U, the running memory is 4GB, the compilation environment is MATLAB2018b, the number of ant samples is 50, the maximum number of iterations is 100, the initial population size of the genetic algorithm is 200, and the maximum number of iterations is 50. Simulation and physical experiments show that the improved hybrid algorithm is effective. Compared with the traditional hybrid algorithm, the improved hybrid algorithm reduced by 46% in the average number of iterations and 75% in the average number of turns in a simple grid. The improved hybrid algorithm reduced by 47% in the average number of iterations and 21% in the average number of turns in a complex grid.

Numerical Simulation and Deep Neural Network Revealed Drag Reduction of Microstructured Three-Dimensional Square Cylinders at High Reynolds Numbers

Square cylinders are widely used in various fields. For example, they are common structures in fishways. The flow around square cylinders has been a common problem in various fields. However, reducing the flow drag of the square cylinder is a problem that remains unexplored. Many previous studies have reported the drag reduction of 2D square cylinders, which failed to reflect the drag of real structures. Also, some studies focus on the drag force of the inner wall of the square cylinder modified by the microstructure. Achieving drag reduction by microstructuring the surface of the 3D square cylinder is a challenging problem. This study applied a 3D numerical simulation and deep neural network to study the drag reduction performance of the square cylinder under different patch sizes. We studied the drag reduction performance of protrusion and pit-patched square cylinders and tried to find the rule between drag reduction performance and patch configuration. The results show that the square cylinder has better drag reduction performance in some cases. However, its drag reduction performance is greatly affected by the protrusion structure. Also, too large protrusions will increase the drag force of the structure. When the surface protrusion accounts for 10% of the total area of the square cylinder, the drag reduction performance is the best (22.1%). The pit patch structure demonstrated an insignificant drag reduction performance and even increased the drag in most cases. The DNN prediction model demonstrated the robustness of the numerical simulation data.

Genetic algorithm is widely used in multi-objective mechanical structure optimization. In this paper, a genetic algorithm-based optimization method for ladle refractory lining structure is proposed. First, the parametric finite element model of the new ladle refractory lining is established by using ANSYS Workbench software. The refractory lining is mainly composed of insulating layer, permanent layer and working layer. Secondly, a mathematical model for multi-objective optimization is established to reveal the functional relationship between the maximum equivalent force on the ladle lining, the maximum temperature on the ladle shell, the total mass of the ladle and the structural parameters of the ladle refractory lining. Genetic algorithm translates the optimization process of ladle refractory lining into natural evolution and selection. The optimization results show that, compared with the unoptimized ladle refractory lining structure (insulation layer thickness of 0 mm, permanent layer thickness of 81 mm, and working layer thickness of 152 mm), the refractory lining with insulation layer thickness of 8.02 mm, permanent layer thickness of 76.20 mm, and working layer thickness of 148.61 mm has the best thermal insulation performance and longer service life within the variation of ladle refractory lining structure parameters. Finally, the results of the optimization are verified and analyzed in this paper. The study found that by optimizing the design of the ladle refractory lining, the maximum equivalent force on the ladle lining, the maximum temperature on the ladle shell and the ladle mass were reduced. The thermal insulation performance and the lightweight performance of the ladle are improved, which is very important for improving the service life of the ladle.

As a key technology for the non-invasive human-machine interface that has received much attention in the industry and academia, surface EMG (sEMG) signals display great potential and advantages in the field of human-machine collaboration. Currently, gesture recognition based on sEMG signals suffers from inadequate feature extraction, difficulty in distinguishing similar gestures, and low accuracy of multi-gesture recognition.

The development of object detection technology makes it possible for robots to interact with people and the environment, but the changeable application scenarios make the detection accuracy of small and medium objects in the practical application of object detection technology low. In this paper, based on multi-scale feature fusion of indoor small target detection method, using the device to collect different indoor images with angle, light, and shade conditions, and use the image enhancement technology to set up and amplify a date set, with indoor scenarios and the SSD algorithm in target detection layer and its adjacent features fusion. The Faster R-CNN, YOLOv5, SSD, and SSD target detection models based on multi-scale feature fusion were trained on an indoor scene data set based on transfer learning. The experimental results show that multi-scale feature fusion can improve the detection accuracy of all kinds of objects, especially for objects with a relatively small scale. In addition, although the detection speed of the improved SSD algorithm decreases, it is faster than the Faster R-CNN, which better achieves the balance between target detection accuracy and speed.

A Tandem Robotic Arm Inverse Kinematic Solution Based on an Improved Particle Swarm Algorithm

The analysis of robot inverse kinematic solutions is the basis of robot control and path planning, and is of great importance for research. Due to the limitations of the analytical and geometric methods, intelligent algorithms are more advantageous because they can obtain approximate solutions directly from the robot’s positive kinematic equations, saving a large number of computational steps. Particle Swarm Algorithm (PSO), as one of the intelligent algorithms, is widely used due to its simple principle and excellent performance. In this paper, we propose an improved particle swarm algorithm for robot inverse kinematics solving. Since the setting of weights affects the global and local search ability of the algorithm, this paper proposes an adaptive weight adjustment strategy for improving the search ability. Considering the running time of the algorithm, this paper proposes a condition setting based on the limit joints, and introduces the position coefficient k in the velocity factor. Meanwhile, an exponential product form modeling method (POE) based on spinor theory is chosen. Compared with the traditional DH modeling method, the spinor approach describes the motion of a rigid body as a whole and avoids the singularities that arise when described by a local coordinate system. In order to illustrate the advantages of the algorithm in terms of accuracy, time, convergence and adaptability, three experiments were conducted with a general six-degree-of-freedom industrial robotic arm, a PUMA560 robotic arm and a seven-degree-of-freedom robotic arm as the research objects. In all three experiments, the parameters of the robot arm, the range of joint angles, and the initial attitude and position of the end-effector of the robot arm are given, and the attitude and position of the impact point of the end-effector are set to verify whether the joint angles found by the algorithm can reach the specified positions. In Experiments 2 and 3, the algorithm proposed in this paper is compared with the traditional particle swarm algorithm (PSO) and quantum particle swarm algorithm (QPSO) in terms of position and direction solving accuracy, operation time, and algorithm convergence. The results show that compared with the other two algorithms, the algorithm proposed in this paper can ensure higher position accuracy and orientation accuracy of the robotic arm end-effector. the position error of the algorithm proposed in this paper is 0 and the maximum orientation error is 1.29 × 10–8. while the minimum position error of the other two algorithms is −1.64 × 10–5 and the minimum orientation error is −4.03 × 10–6. In terms of operation time, the proposed algorithm in this paper has shorter operation time compared with the other two algorithms. In the last two experiments, the computing time of the proposed algorithm is 0.31851 and 0.30004s respectively, while the shortest computing time of the other two algorithms is 0.33359 and 0.30521s respectively. In terms of algorithm convergence, the proposed algorithm can achieve faster and more stable convergence than the other two algorithms. After changing the experimental subjects, the proposed algorithm still maintains its advantages in terms of accuracy, time and convergence, which indicates that the proposed algorithm is more applicable and has certain potential in solving the multi-arm inverse kinematics solution. This paper provides a new way of thinking for solving the multi-arm inverse kinematics solution problem.

In order to solve the problems of poor image quality, loss of detail information and excessive brightness enhancement during image enhancement in low light environment, we propose a low-light image enhancement algorithm based on improved multi-scale Retinex and Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm optimization in this paper. First of all, the algorithm makes two copies of the original image, afterwards, the irradiation component of the original image is obtained by used the structure extraction from texture via relative total variation for the first image, and combines it with the multi-scale Retinex algorithm to obtain the reflection component of the original image, which are simultaneously enhanced using histogram equalization, bilateral gamma function correction and bilateral filtering. In the next part, the second image is enhanced by histogram equalization and edge-preserving with Weighted Guided Image Filtering (WGIF). Finally, the weight-optimized image fusion is performed by ABC algorithm. The mean values of Information Entropy (IE), Average Gradient (AG) and Standard Deviation (SD) of the enhanced images are respectively 7.7878, 7.5560 and 67.0154, and the improvement compared to original image is respectively 2.4916, 5.8599 and 52.7553. The results of experiment show that the algorithm proposed in this paper improves the light loss problem in the image enhancement process, enhances the image sharpness, highlights the image details, restores the color of the image, and also reduces image noise with good edge preservation which enables a better visual perception of the image.

Complete trajectory planning includes path planning, inverse solution solving and trajectory optimization. In this paper, a highly smooth and time-saving approach to trajectory planning is obtained by improving the kinematic and optimization algorithms for the time-optimal trajectory planning problem. By partitioning the joint space, the paper obtains an inverse solution calculation based on the partitioning of the joint space, saving 40% of the inverse kinematics solution time. This means that a large number of computational resources can be saved in trajectory planning. In addition, an improved sparrow search algorithm (SSA) is proposed to complete the solution of the time-optimal trajectory. A Tent chaotic mapping was used to optimize the way of generating initial populations. The algorithm was further improved by combining it with an adaptive step factor. The experiments demonstrated the performance of the improved SSA. The robot's trajectory is further optimized in time by an improved sparrow search algorithm. Experimental results show that the method can improve convergence speed and global search capability and ensure smooth trajectories.

A Burch–Schneider (BS) cage is a reinforcement device used in total hip arthroplasty (THA) revision surgeries to bridge areas of acetabular loss. There have been a variety of BS cages in the market, which are made of solid metal. However, significant differences in structural configuration and mechanical behavior between bone and metal implants cause bone resorption and interface loosening, and hence lead to failure of the implant in the long term. To address this issue, an optimal design framework for a cellular BS cage was investigated in this study by genetic algorithm and topology optimization, inspired by porous human bone with variable holes. In this optimization, a BS cage is constructed with functionally graded lattice material which gradually evolves to achieve better mechanical behavior by natural selection and natural genetics. Clinical constraints that allow adequate bone ingrowth and manufacturing constraint that ensures the realization of the optimized implant are considered simultaneously. A homogenization method is introduced to calculate effective mechanical properties of octet-truss lattice material in a given range of relative density. At last, comparison of the optimum lattice BS cage with a fully solid cage and a lattice cage with identical element density indicates the validity of the optimization design strategy proposed in this article.

Mobile robots have an important role in material handling in manufacturing and can be used for a variety of automated tasks. The accuracy of the robot's moving trajectory has become a key issue affecting its work efficiency. This paper presents a method for optimizing the trajectory of the mobile robot based on the digital twin of the robot.

It provides a method to map learning in the virtual domain to the physical robot.

Dynamic Gesture Recognition Algorithm Based on 3D Convolutional Neural Network

Gesture recognition is one of the important ways of human-computer interaction, which is mainly detected by visual technology. The temporal and spatial features are extracted by convolution of the video containing gesture. However, compared with the convolution calculation of a single image, multiframe image of dynamic gestures has more computation, more complex feature extraction, and more network parameters, which affects the recognition efficiency and real-time performance of the model. To solve above problems, a dynamic gesture recognition model based on CBAM-C3D is proposed. Key frame extraction technology, multimodal joint training, and network optimization with BN layer are used for making the network performance better. The experiments show that the recognition accuracy of the proposed 3D convolutional neural network combined with attention mechanism reaches 72.4% on EgoGesture dataset, which is improved greatly compared with the current main dynamic gesture recognition methods, and the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified.
