Intersection decision making for autonomous vehicles based on improved PPO algorithm by Dong Guo, Shoulin He, Shouwen Ji

“…First, the Self‐Attention Mechanism (SAM) is introduced into the algorithmic framework to quickly identify the surrounding vehicles with a greater impact on the ego vehicle from different perspectives, accelerating data processing and improving decision quality. Second, an invalid action masking mechanism is adopted to reduce the action space, ensuring actions are only selected from feasible sets, thereby enhancing decision efficiency. …”

Kinematic analysis of the back squat at different load intensities in powerlifters and weightlifters by Valerio Giustino, Domenico Savio Salvatore Vicari, Domenico Savio Salvatore Vicari, Flavia Figlioli, Flavia Figlioli, Marco Gervasi, Eneko Fernández Peña, Naima Schifaudo, Mattia Tedesco, Patrik Drid, Antonio Paoli, Giuseppe Battaglia, Giuseppe Battaglia, Antonino Bianco, Antonino Patti

“…., 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 100%) of the 1-RM. An action camera recorded the execution of each BS trial in the sagittal plane and, afterward, the videos were analyzed by measuring the range of motion (ROM) of hip, knee, and ankle for the angular kinematics, and the timing, distances, speeds, and accelerations of the barbell for the linear kinematics.ResultsRegarding the angular kinematics, no significant differences were found in the parameters in the starting and ending positions among the 5 trials, while a significant decrease was found in the hip relative angle (p = 0.026) in the maximum flexion position as load intensity increased. …”
