BeatProfiler: Multimodal In Vitro Analysis of Cardiac Function Enables Machine Learning Classification of Diseases and Drugs by Youngbin Kim, Kunlun Wang, Roberta I. Lock, Trevor R. Nash, Sharon Fleischer, Bryan Z. Wang, Barry M. Fine, Gordana Vunjak-Novakovic

“…<italic>Results:</italic> Benchmarking against existing tools revealed that BeatProfiler detected and analyzed contraction and calcium signals better than existing tools through improved sensitivity in low signal data, reduction in false positives, and analysis speed increase by 7 to 50-fold. Of signals accurately detected by published methods (PMs), BeatProfiler&#x0027;s extracted features showed high correlations to PMs, confirming that it is reliable and consistent with PMs. …”

Scientific foundations of the movement of components of grain material with an artificially formed distribution of air velocity by С.П. Степаненко, Б.И. Котов, А.В. Спирин, В.Ю. Кучерук

“…The regularities of the weevil movement were theoretically investigated and established in the form of mathematical models of the dynamics of the movement of a solid particle in airflow, which differ from the known ones by taking into account the action of lateral forces, the concentration of the material, and the use of a power-law and an artificially formed exponential law of air distribution facilitated to increase the differences (splitting) trajectories of caryopses by 20 %. …”

Feedrate Fluctuation Minimization for NURBS Tool Path Interpolation Based on Arc Length Compensation and Iteration by Xing Liu, Pengxin Yu, Haiduo Chen, Bihui Peng, Zhao Wang, Fusheng Liang

“…In the interpolation cycle, the position of the next interpolation point is required to be calculated in real-time to guide the action of the machining process. Due to the existence of the positioning error of the interpolation point, it is extremely difficult to eliminate the feedrate fluctuation, which may lead to dramatic decreases in machining quality and the driving capabilities’ saturation of each axis. …”
