[PMID: 39205112 PMCID: PMC11359530 DOI: 10.3390/s24165418] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2024] [Revised: 08/07/2024] [Accepted: 08/20/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Seals, sea lions, and other aquatic animals rely on their whiskers to identify and track underwater targets, offering valuable inspiration for the development of low-power, portable, and environmentally friendly sensors. Here, we design a single seal-whisker-like cylinder and conduct experiments to measure the forces acting on it with nine different upstream targets. Using sample sets constructed from these force signals, a convolutional neural network (CNN) is trained and tested. The results demonstrate that combining the seal-whisker-style sensor with a CNN enables the identification of objects in the water in most cases, although there may be some confusion for certain targets. Increasing the length of the signal samples can enhance the results but may not eliminate these confusions. Our study reveals that high frequencies (greater than 5 Hz) are irrelevant in our model. Lift signals present more distinct and distinguishable features than drag signals, serving as the primary basis for the model to differentiate between various targets. Fourier analysis indicates that the model's efficacy in recognizing different targets relies heavily on the discrepancies in the spectral features of the lift signals.

Abstract
A data-driven approach using artificial neural networks is proposed to address the classic inverse area function problem, i.e., to determine the vocal tract geometry (modelled as a tube of nonuniform cylindrical cross-sections) from the vocal tract acoustic impedance spectrum. The predicted cylindrical radii and the actual radii were found to have high correlation in the three- and four-cylinder model (Pearson coefficient (ρ) and Lin concordance coefficient (ρc) exceeded 95%); however, for the six-cylinder model, the correlation was low (ρ around 75% and ρc around 69%). Upon standardizing the impedance value, the correlation improved significantly for all cases (ρ and ρc exceeded 90%).

Abstract
Inspired by the lateral line systems of various aquatic organisms that are capable of hydrodynamic imaging using ambient flow information, this study develops a deep learning-based object localization model that can detect the location of objects using flow information measured from a moving sensor array. In numerical simulations with the assumption of a potential flow, a two-dimensional hydrofoil navigates around four stationary cylinders in a uniform flow and obtains two types of sensory data during a simulation, namely flow velocity and pressure, from an array of sensors located on the surface of the hydrofoil. Several neural network models are constructed using the flow velocity and pressure data, and these are used to detect the positions of the hydrofoil and surrounding objects. The model based on a long short-term memory network, which is capable of learning order dependence in sequence prediction problems, outperforms the other models. The number of sensors is then optimized using feature selection techniques. This sensor optimization leads to a new object localization model that achieves impressive accuracy in predicting the locations of the hydrofoil and objects with only 40% of the sensors used in the original model.

Abstract
Reservoir computing (RC) is an attractive paradigm of a recurrent neural network (RNN) architecture, owning to the ease of training and existing neuromorphic implementation. Its simulated performance matches other digital algorithms on a series of benchmarking tasks, such as prediction tasks and classification tasks. In this article, we propose a novel RC structure based on the coupled MEMS resonators with the enhanced dynamic richness to optimize the performance of the RC system both on the system level and data set level. Moreover, we first put forward that the dynamic richness of RC comprises linear dynamic richness and nonlinear dynamic richness, which can be enhanced by adding delayed feedbacks and nonlinear nodes, respectively. In order to set forth this point, we compare three typical RC structures, a single-nonlinearity RC structure with single-feedback, a single-nonlinearity RC structure with double-feedbacks, and the couple-nonlinearity RC structure with double-feedbacks. Specifically, four different tasks are enumerated to verify the performance of the three RC structures, and the results show the enhanced dynamic richness by adding delayed feedbacks and nonlinear nodes. These results prove that coupled MEMS resonators offer an interesting platform to implement a complex computing paradigm leveraging their rich dynamical features.
