Advancements in deep learning have revolutionized the artificialintelligence (AI) landscape. However, despite considerable performance enhancements, their reliance on data and the intrinsic opacity of these models remains a challenge, hindering our ability to understand the reasons behind their failures. This paper introduces a headless open-source framework, coined MizSIM, built on the Unreal Engine (UE) to generate high volume and variety synthetic datasets for AI training and evaluation. Through the manipulation of agent and environment parameters, MizSIM can provide detailed performance analysis and failure diagnosis. Leveraging UE's opensource distribution, cost-effective assets, and high-quality graphics, along with tools like AirSim and the Robotic Operating System (ROS), MizSIM ensures user-friendly design and seamless data extraction. In this article, we demonstrate two MizSIM workflows: one for a single-life computer vision task and the other to evaluate an object detector across hundreds of simulated lives. The overarching aim is to establish a closed-loop environment to enhance AI effectiveness and transparency.

High quality, safe, and reliable batteries are essential for widespread adoption of electric vehicles. Current Li-ion battery pack manufacturing processes rely on manual inspections to ensure electric vehicle battery quality. Such manual quality control is prone to errors, increasing the chances of defective batteries. This is likely to increase safety and reliability concerns in the public imagination, slowing down the adoption of electric vehicles. Furthermore, manual inspection is time-consuming and likely to become a bottleneck in scaling up electric vehicle battery production. A potential solution to address this need for fast and accurate inspection of batteries is the use of machinevision and robotics. In this study, we use digital twin design and simulation to develop a battery module inspection system that uses cobots and machinevision to inspect electric vehicle batteries for defects. Our proposed system can automate visual quality checks that are currently being done by human operators. The proposed cobotic system has been simulated and validated for a variety of battery defects to achieve fast and reliable detection. Since a digital twin of the cobotic inspection workcell has been used, the battery inspection system, as designed and validated, is ready for immediate implementation.

machinevision is one of the main applications of artificialintelligence. In China, the machinevision industry makes up more than a third of the national AI market, and technologies like face recognition, object tracking and automated driving play a central role in surveillance systems and social governance projects relying on the large-scale collection and processing of sensor data. Like other novel articulations of technology and society, machinevision is defined, developed and explained by different actors through the work of imagination. In this article, we draw on the concept of sociotechnical imaginaries to understand how Chinese companies represent machinevision. Through a qualitative multimodal analysis of the corporate websites of leading industry players, we identify a cohesive sociotechnical imaginary of machinevision, and explain how four distinct visual registers contribute to its articulation. These four registers, which we call computational abstraction, human-machine coordination, smooth everyday, and dashboard realism, allow Chinese tech companies to articulate their global ambitions and competitiveness through narrow and opaque representations of machinevision technologies.

Synthetic aperture imaging(SAI) methods aim to see through dense occlusions and reconstruct the target scene behind occlusions. Traditional frame-based SAI methods,e.g., DeOccNet [1], take the occluded light field images captured by a camera array as input, and fuse them to achieve image de-occlusion.

In this work, we present a synthetic data augmented explainable vision Transformer (ViT) framework designed for the informed and intuitive early diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) polyps. The framework uses textural images - generated by our recently developed vision-based tactile sensor (called HySenSe) and augmented by synthetically generated images from a diffusion model pipeline, to output class-based probabilities of potential CRC polyp types. Additionally, it provides local relevancy-based heatmaps to assist clinicians by highlighting key areas of interest in the tactile images representing CRC polyp textures. We benchmark each aspect of this framework through: (i) Inception Scores for the synthetic images generated by the diffusion pipeline, (ii) Performance evaluation and sensitivity analyses on the effects of synthetic data addition on model generalizability compared with other state-of-the-art architectures, (iii) Dimensionality reduction techniques to confirm the suitability of synthetically generated images, and (iv) Comparison of two independent approaches visualizing explainability.

AI has made a significant progress in multiple facets of surgery over the past decade including diagnostics, outcome prediction, and robotics. However, many obstacles still exist before urology can achieve fully autonomous surgery. Autonomous actions will require a complex network of machine learning, natural language processing, and CV. Each of these facets requires large amounts of data in the form of EHRs, images, and videos that all must be annotated. Thus, the future of urologic surgery must focus on data collection, preparation, and annotation. Other questions must also be answered before AI be-comes widespread in surgery. Autonomous sur-gery must be interpretable to its users and patients, and its ethical concerns regarding racial bias, consideration of treatment implications, and consent must be addressed.

artificialintelligence is transforming healthcare. artificialintelligence can improve patient care by analyzing large amounts of data to help make more informed decisions regarding treatments and enhance medical research through analyzing and interpreting data from clinical trials and research projects to identify subtle but meaningful trends beyond ordinary perception. artificialintelligence refers to the simulation of human intelligence in computers, where systems of artificialintelligence can perform tasks that require human-like intelligence like speech recognition, visual perception, pattern-recognition, decision-making, and language processing. artificialintelligence has several subdivisions, including machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and robotics. By automating specific routine tasks, artificialintelligence can improve healthcare efficiency. By leveraging machine learning algorithms, the systems of artificialintelligence can offer new opportunities for enhancing both the efficiency and effectiveness of surgical procedures, particularly regarding training of minimally invasive surgery. As artificialintelligence continues to advance, it is likely to play an increasingly significant role in the field of surgical learning. Physicians have assisted to a spreading role of artificialintelligence in the last decade. This involved different medical specialties such as ophthalmology, cardiology, urology, but also abdominal surgery. In addition to improvements in diagnosis, ascertainment of efficacy of treatment and autonomous actions, artificialintelligence has the potential to improve surgeons' ability to better decide if acute surgery is indicated or not. The role of artificialintelligence in the emergency departments has also been investigated. We considered one of the most common condition the emergency surgeons have to face, acute appendicitis, to assess the state of the art of artificialintelligence in this frequent acut
