The advent of the conformal wearable and wireless inertial sensor enables expanded utility for progressive evolution of gait quantification. The acquired signal data, such as through a gyroscope, can be wirelessly transmitted to a secure Cloud computing environment for subsequent post-processing. In particular, the amalgamation of machine learning classification can be applied for the distinction of hemiplegic gait in the context of the hemiplegic affected leg and the unaffected leg. The integration of these technologies enables the realization of Network Centric Therapy, for which the patient can ascertain the benefit of gait quantification through extremely lightweight conformal wearable and wireless inertial sensorsystems that have profiles relative to a bandage. Furthermore, the clinical rehabilitation team can remotely instill therapy optimized with the augmented acuity of machine learning. The research endeavor successfully demonstrates considerable classification accuracy through machine learning for the differentiation of a hemiplegic affected leg and unaffected leg during gait.

One of the priority tasks in constructing a quadrotor is fault-tolerant control and stabilizing its flight. This paper proposes a quadrotor stabilization system based on onboard sensors, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a complementary filter that combines their readings, and a PID controller. The complementary filter is used to improve the accuracy of tilt angles relative to the ground, and the PID controller is used to calculate the deviation compensation and bring the quadrotor to the required position. The filter makes it possible to level the gyroscope zero drift and discrete integration errors. At the same time, the PID controller compensates for the deviation of the quadrotor from the horizontal position. Experimental validations show that our approach is able to accurately control the position of a quadrotor without any external sensors and achieve sufficiently high-quality flight stabilization with RMSE 2°.

The refractive index (RI) of liquids plays an important role in chemical analysis and medical diagnostics. Here, we present the integration of a flexible substrate with 6 blue organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) and 6 organic photodetectors (OPDs) with a flexible microfluidic system formed in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). The devices are fabricated by masked thermal evaporation on a 200 mu m thick polyethylene terephthalate (PET) foil. The individual size of the organic devices is 1 mm x 1 mm. Successful operation of the OLED-OPD matrix for refractive index measurements is demonstrated. This system is intended for RI monitoring of multiple analytes or for analyzing a single analyte with a distributed concentration.

The quality of pavements is significant to comfort and safety when riding a bicycle on roads and cycleways. As pavements are affected by ageing due to environmental impacts, periodic inspection is required for maintenance planning. Since this involves considerable efforts and costs, there is a need to monitor roads using affordable sensors. This paper presents a modular and low-cost measurement system for road surface recognition. It consists of several sensors that are attached to a bicycle to record e.g. forces or the suspension travel while driving. To ensure high sample rates in data acquisition, the data capturing and storage tasks are distributed to several microcontrollers and the monitoring and control is performed by a single board computer. In addition, the measuring system is intended to simplify the tedious documentation of ground truth. We present the results obtained by using time series analysis to identify different types of obstacles based on raw sensor signals.

The complexity of in -vehicle interaction systems is constantly growing. However, thanks to the increased availability of sensing systems in the driving environment and communication infrastructure able to radically change the interaction modalities at driving, the existing situation is likely to progressively turn into a cooperative scenario, in which the vehicle and the driver share tasks at perceptual, decisional and control level. This paper describes an innovative humanmachine interaction paradigm developed in the SAFE STRIP project to exploit the potential of C -ITS to implement new mobility paradigms, to turn the traditional vehicle perspective into a more efficient traffic perspective. In order to achieve this challenging objective, the overall HMI strategy has been redesigned, to foster the adoption of a new, more active role of the driver and the other road users. The preliminary prototypes developed in the SAFE STRIP project are also described in this paper.

In recent years, the demand for artificial intelligence applications has increased dramatically. Complex models can promote machine learning to achieve excellent results, but computing efficiency has gradually reached a bottleneck. Therefore, more researchers are exploring the improvement of the efficiency of intelligent computingsystems. distributed machine learning can improve the efficiency of model training and inference, but problems such as communication delay and load imbalance between computing nodes still exist. In the multi-GPU distributedcomputing environment, this paper takes the vision field algorithm VIT (vision transformer) as the optimization object, which has the advantage of convenient parallel training, and proposes several related solutions. Firstly, the parameter server is used as the system logic architecture and in order to reduce the idleness of the computing devices during the training process, the device working status query mechanism is designed to realize load balancing. Secondly, combined with the pre-trained small VIT algorithm model, semi-asynchronous communication method is proposed to reduce the communication overhead of computing devices and accelerate global convergence. The results of this experiment carried out in the existing distributed environment has demonstrated that compared with the existing synchronization method, the computational efficiency has been improved well under the premise of slightly reducing the accuracy.

The exponential data generation embraces unstructured object storage systems as an effective solution to improve performance. Key-Value (KV) SSD object storage devices are unveiled to mitigate the shortcomings of traditional Key-Value stores on block devices, including device low-bandwidth utilization and KV-store resource-draining operations on the host CPU and block devices. Samsung KV-SSDs are built on top of NVMe over Fabric hardware, which supports storage remote access protocols (i.e., RDMA). Network Key-Value (NKV) is a software eco-system developed by Samsung that enables data distribution and storage disaggregation of KV-SSDs. Most widely used big data processing platforms, such as Hadoop, Presto, deploy Hadoop distributed File System (HDFS) to take advantage of rapid data access by co-locating storage and compute nodes. The co-allocation of compute and storage node limits the scalability and utilization resources and thus increases the total cost of ownership. In this paper, we present a new storage disaggregation model for big data processing platforms. Our new system layout leverages resource disaggregation by separating compute infrastructure from storage infrastructure and utilizes the benefits of new evolving storage technology, i.e., KV-SSD, for large-scale data access and processing. The goal of this work is to facilitate independent scaling of storage and compute resources, and shift the data retrieval load from the hosts to storage nodes. We evaluate our designed architecture using TPC-DS benchmark. Our results show that the CPU load on compute nodes is non-negligibly released with sustaining the same performance compared to the conventional Hadoop with HDFS.
