This contribution describes the use of Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods for the lexical analysis of requirements for control, sensors, and information systems in the Agriculture 4.0 domain. The analysis is presented on an orchard 4.0 *** proposed orchard includes a sensor network (containing mainly measurements of hydrometeorological and soil variables), camera monitoring of conditions, and yield, support for autonomous robotic care and harvesting based on machine vision, prediction of appropriate times for interventions, etc. Requirements specification for mentioned system is written in natural language.A sentence splitting, Tokenization, Lemmatization, and POS (Part-of-Speech) tagging methods are applied to the mentioned structured requirements of the system and Use Case description. From these and by means of NLP, the candidates of classes, attributes, operations, and associations of the UML (Unified Modeling Language) class diagram are filtered and the UML model is synthesized. This paper presents the application of software engineering methods to support the development of complex heterogeneous sensors, information, and control systems.

Cancer disparities are adverse differences in cancer measures that exist among certain population groups. Given that the role they play not only in the disease prognosis but also in therapy response, there is an urgent need to understand what causes them. Most studies investigate these disparities by analyzing transcriptomic data and in particular miRNAs for their regulatory role, but only focusing on expression levels. To face this challenge we propose MIRROR, a new method which analyzes a differential co-expression network of miRNAs between patients’ cohorts, to study the role they play at the target genes’ level. Doing so, we can study the altered molecular mechanism that are linked to cancer disparities. The application of MIRROR to two different cases of cancer disparities has demonstrated its efficacy in identifying molecular players involved in the considered disparity, presenting itself as a viable option to approach this challenge.

This paper proposes a scheme to model the energy consumption of LoRaWAN, which is a popular example of low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs), nodes via the results of outdoor field experiments by assuming regional smart agriculture as a use case for internet of things (IoT). Specifically, we derive an experimental approximation formula to estimate the battery lifetime by introducing parameters such as spread factor and payload length. The validity of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by confirming that the results obtained by the approximate formula, the experimental and theoretical results generally agree, regardless of the node state and spread factor. Furthermore, we show that the obtained approximate formula can be used to identify the current consumption value in the sleep state that should be achieved to achieve the desired battery lifetime.

System identification (SysID) is the art and science of dealing with dynamic data modelling problems from systems science perspectives. It has been an active field and is still very active today, due to its wide range of applications, especially its basic principles of finding transparent, interpretable and parsimonious models for different purposes. The past decades have witnessed the explosive growth in machine learning (ML) and its applications in all areas of science and engineering. Meanwhile, there has been an increasing demand for the development of transparent, explainable and/or interpretable ML models. This paper proposes a new framework for developing System Identification-informed Transparent and Explainable MAchine Learning (SITEMAL) models. A case study, involving a real power consumption dataset, is presented to demonstrate the application of the proposed modelling framework and its performance for power consumption forecasting.

We propose an observer for rotational dynamics subject to directional and gyroscopic measurements, which simultaneously estimates the gyroscopic biases and attitude rates. We show uniform almost global asymptotic and local exponential stability of the resulting error dynamics, implying robustness against bounded disturbances. This robustness is quantified with respect to a popular nonlinear complementary filter in quantitative simulation studies, and we explore how the measurement noise propagates to the asymptotic errors as a function of tuning.

Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) is the most popular Additive Manufacturing (AM) process for metals. It builds a 3D object layer-by-layer, by spreading metal powder on top of the previous layer and selectively melting it with a laser. Despite its many advantages, large-scale production may be hampered by the large number of process parameters and the challenges associated with their optimization. We propose an automated parameter selection approach based on process signatures extracted from a parameterized simulation of the process. Specifically, we outline a rapid data-driven simulation method based on Physics-Informed Neural Network (PINN). This approach involves training a neural network to solve the partial differential equation describing the process at varying values of a parameter of interest (for example, the laser power), thus eliminating the need for repeated Finite Elements Method (FEM) simulations. Our preliminary experiments demonstrate the feasibility of our approach.

In the field of integrated circuit (IC) testing, the detection of defects is crucial to ensure the reliability and functionality of the final product. Among the variety of fault models that can be used to target the many possible defects in a circuit, delay faults (transition and path delay) have been used for many years. Lately, cell-aware testing (CAT) has been introduced as a different approach that aims to improve the detection of internal defects of standard cells: it involves using specific patterns to detect faults that could not be detected by common fault models (e.g., stuck-at and transition delay fault models). Both delay and cell-aware faults can be caused by several factors, such as manufacturing defects, environmental conditions, and aging effects. In this paper, we investigate the application of test patterns generated with the transition and path delay fault models in comparison with others developed with the cell-aware approach, in terms of fault coverage, pattern count and test generation time. Overall, the study shows that the combination of the path delay fault model and cell-aware testing can lead to improved fault coverage and lower test. The experimental results are presented over a wide range of open-source benchmarks and on a RISC-V design using a proprietary industrial technology library.
In the recent shift towards human-centric AI, the need for machines to accurately use natural language has become increasingly important. While a common approach to achieve this is to train large language models, this...
