Amidst an era of speedy technological growth, fraud is a complex challenge. This article presents an innovative analytical method that uses utility consumption data to identify probable instances of fraud in utility-based services. This study evaluates the efficacy of neural networks, specifically Artificial Neural Network (ANN) — a subset of neural networks, compared to Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LGBM), a tree-based model. It uses data from the Zindi challenge to analyze their capability to detect fraudulent consumption patterns. The article focuses on optimizing features using Pearson correlation and discusses the difficulties associated with imbalanced data sets. The LGBM model has exceptional performance, as seen by its impressive ROC AUC score of 0.878242. This number highlights its remarkable ability to differentiate fraudulent actions from ANN, thus establishing future advancements in fraud detection in utility-based services.
Conventional robots are capable of detecting terrain and creating a 2D or 3D map of the terrain in memory, which is utilized by the robot’s algorithms to plan navigation. Such algorithms are primarily focused on path...

Dynamic stacking optimization is of critical importance in industries where timely production and delivery are essential. This process involves the strategic scheduling of crane operations to relocate products while adhering to stringent time constraints. This paper presents a study on dynamic stacking optimization for the Rolling Mill track of the DynStack competition hosted at GECCO 2024. The primary objective is to develop a heuristic-based approach to minimize rolling program messups, blocked mill time, and crane manipulations. The challenges posed by the uncertainty in block arrivals and the need for real-time decision-making are addressed. Various heuristic and optimization techniques were explored, with an emphasis on enhancing crane efficiency and block sorting accuracy.

The increasing complexity of video games and development costs have necessitated innovative approaches to content creation. Procedural Content Generation (PCG) and AI tools like ChatGPT offer promising solutions. This paper explores the application of ChatGPT in Procedural Level Generation (PLG) for the game “science Birds”. Through a combination of theoretical exploration and practical experiments, we demonstrate how ChatGPT can be leveraged to automate level design, enhancing both efficiency and creativity in game development.

Collision prediction and avoidance are essential for the autonomous navigation of mobile robots. The prediction of a traversability map is a way to achieve this goal. However, this approach might fail if the prediction model is exposed to novel semantic classes unseen during self-supervised training or the environment is subject to highly dynamic motions of living and artificial entities. Included are pedestrians, animals, and vehicles that the robot can hardly handle. In this paper, we embrace this challenge by describing the development of a flexible human-robot teaming that leverages the shared control of the robot to accommodate critical situations and allow the human operator to be otherwise engaged. The operator can remotely perceive the surrounding and actively guide the robot as well as participatively share or leave full control to the robot that autonomously moves toward a desired common goal. A situation-aware control signal balances inputs from the motion planner of the autonomous robot and cognitive inputs from the remote operator issued by using affordable interfaces. The human-in-the-loop control is realized through a bidirectional wireless communication between the physical robot and its digital twin. The human-robot teaming enhances the likelihood of a safe and successful navigation under dynamic obstacles and enables a navigation without pre-defined goals. The conceptual architecture is introduced and preliminary results are shared.

When learning from instructional videos, students frequently take handwritten notes to improve recall and comprehension. When reviewing their notes, it can be difficult to return to the corresponding part of the video. In this paper, we present NoteLink, a mobile application that allows students to take pictures of their notes to re-find and play relevant videos on their smartphone or tablet. Our study followed four phases. In Phase I, we identified the characteristics of students' notes by analyzing 10 engineering students' handwritten notes taken while watching instructional videos. We found: 1) students' notes are comprised of four content types: text, formula, drawing, and a hybrid of two or more types, 2) at least 75% of the notes, regardless of content type, manifest some degree of verbatim overlap with the corresponding video content, and 3) videos are referenced at three scales of temporal granularity: point, interval, and whole video. In Phase II, we designed a prototype mobile application, NoteLink, that retrieves instructional videos that are similar to students' notes. In Phase III, we ran a usability study with 12 engineering students to evaluate their preferences for the temporal granularity of retrieved videos and how search results are displayed. Students reported a preference for matches at the interval temporal granularity. Interviews with participants suggest that NoteLink-like tools for re-finding instructional videos are useful. In Phase IV, we evaluated the retrieval accuracy of NoteLink using the data collected in Phase I. The overall accuracy was 78%, and 98% for textual notes. We also provide design recommendations for optimizing NoteLink.
