Abstract

Aflatoxin contamination in cacao is a significant problem in terms of trade losses and health effects. This calls for the need for a non-invasive, precise, and effective detection strategy. This research contribution is to determine the best deep-learning model to classify the aflatoxin contamination level in cocoa beans based on fluorescence images and deep learning to improve performance in the classification. The process involved inoculating and incubating Aspergillus flavus (6mL/100g) to obtain aflatoxin-contaminated cocoa beans for 7 days during the incubation period. Liquid Mass Chromatography (LCMS) was used to quantify the aflatoxin in order to categorize the images into different levels including “free of aflatoxin”, “contaminated below the limit”, and “contaminated above the limit”.  300 images were acquired through a mini studio equipped with UV lamps.  The aflatoxin level was classified using several pre-trained CNN approaches which has high accuracy such as GoogLeNet, SqueezeNet, AlexNet, and ResNet50. The sensitivity analysis showed that the highest classification accuracy was found in the GoogLeNet model with optimizer: Adam and learning rate: 0.0001 by 96.42%. The model was tested using a testing dataset and obtain accuracy of 96% based on the confusion matrix. The findings indicate that combining CNN with fluorescence images improved the ability to classify the amount of aflatoxin contamination in cacao beans. This method has the potential to be more accurate and economical than the current approach, which could be adapted to reduce aflatoxin's negative effects on food safety and cacao trade losses.

Abstract

Microclimate monitoring in agroforestry is very important to understand the complex interactions between vegetation, soil, and the environment. Microclimate parameters include air and soil temperature, air humidity, soil moisture, and light intensity. This research aims to develop a new microclimate data recording system for coffee-pine agroforestry, utilizing LoRaWAN and IoT technology to capture real-time microclimate parameters. Unlike traditional data loggers that require manual download on-site, this innovative system enables instant data download from IoT servers, thereby increasing data efficiency and accessibility. The system proved effective, significantly improving the precision of air temperature and humidity, as well as soil temperature measurements, with an average accuracy of 100%. However, soil moisture and light intensity recorded lower accuracies of 81.23% and 82.56%, respectively, indicating potential areas for future research and system refinement. The system maintains a 15-minute sampling period, aligning with conventional datalogger intervals. This represents an advancement in precision agriculture for microclimate monitoring, enabling the data to be utilized in decision-making for agroforestry management, which involves complex interactions between the local microclimate and the broader ecological system. It underscores the significance of sustainable land use as a response to global climate change.

Abstract

Traditional fuzzy reasoning techniques demand a condensed fuzzy rule base to conclude a result. Still, due to incomplete data or a deficiency of expertise and knowledge, dense rule bases are not always available. Fuzzy interpolation methods have been widely explored to reasonably allow the interpolation of a fuzzy result using the closest current rules. Fuzzy rule interpolation is a type of fuzzy inference system in which conclusions can be obtained even with a few fuzzy rules. This benefit could be used to adapt the FRI to different application areas that suffer from a lack of knowledge. Alzubi et al. [17] offered a novel interpolative method that uses a weighted average based on the center point of the Incircle of the fuzzy sets. Nevertheless, the interpolated observation does not completely define the actual observation that is provided. In our offered extension to this method, a modification weight measure calculation and a shift technique are included to guarantee that the center point of the observation and the interpolated observation are mapped together. This weight measure calculation and shift technique enabled the capability of extrapolation to be conducted implicitly, which is also improves the performance results of the algorithm in the presence of multiple fuzzy rules and multidimensional priors.

Abstract

This study explores the incorporation of time-varying sign gain into a parallel iterative learning control (ILC) architecture, augmented by an expert system, to enhance the performance and stability of a robotic arm system. The methodology involves iteratively tuning the learning control gains using time-varying sign gain guided by an expert system. Stability analysis, encompassing asymptotic and monotonic convergence, demonstrates promising results across multiple joints, affirming the effectiveness of the proposed control architecture. In comparison with traditional PID control, fixed gain ILC, and ILC with adaptive learning in the expert system, the analysis focuses on stability, precision, and adaptability, using root mean square error (RMSE) as a key metric. The results show that ILC with adaptive learning from the expert system consistently reduces RMSE, even in the presence of learning transients. This adaptability effectively controls the learning transients, ensuring improved performance in subsequent iterations. In conclusion, the integration of time-varying sign gain with expert system assistance in a parallel ILC architecture holds promise for advancing adaptive control in robotic systems. Positive outcomes in stability, precision, and adaptability suggest practical applications in real-world scenarios. This research provides valuable insights into the implementation of dynamic learning mechanisms for enhanced robotic system performance, laying the groundwork for future refinement in robotic manipulator control systems.

Abstract

Avoiding injuries in sports has always depended on historical records and human experience. This is despite using injuries being a major and unsolvable issue. The development of more precise preventative procedures using the now available approaches has been excruciatingly sluggish. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) as potentially valuable procedures to improve damage prevention and recovery procedures has been made possible by technological advances that have made these areas more accessible. This article presents a detailed summary of ML approaches as they have been used to predict and anticipate sports injuries to this point in time. The research conducted over the last five years has been collated, and its results have been untaken. Assuming the present absence of accessible sources, standardized statistics, and a dependence on obsolete deterioration prototypes, it is impossible to draw any definitive conclusions regarding the real-world effectiveness of machine learning in terms of its application to the prediction of sports injuries. However, it has been hypothesized that resolving these two problems would make it possible to deploy innovative, strong machine-learning architectures, which will hasten the process of increasing the state of this area while also offering proven clinical tools.

Abstract

In this paper, we focus on enhancing the performance of the controller utilized in the Stewart platform by investigating the dynamics of the platform. Dynamic modeling is crucial for control and simulation, yet challenging for parallel robots like the Stewart platform due to closed-loop kinematics. We explore classical methods to solve its inverse dynamical model, but conventional approaches face difficulties, often resulting in simplified and inaccurate models. To overcome this limitation, we propose a novel approach by replacing the classical feedforward inverse dynamic block with a reinforcement learning (RL) agent, which, to our knowledge, has not been tried yet in the context of the Stewart platform control. Our proposed methodology utilizes a hybrid control topology that combines RL with existing classical control topologies and inverse kinematic modeling. We leverage three deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithms and two model-based RL algorithms to achieve improved control performance, highlighting the versatility of the proposed approach. By incorporating the learned feedforward control topology into the existing PID controller, we demonstrate enhancements in the overall control performance of the Stewart platform. Notably, our approach eliminates the need for explicit derivation and solving of the inverse dynamic model, overcoming the drawbacks associated with inaccurate and simplified models. Through several simulations and experiments, we validate the effectiveness of our reinforcement learning-based control approach for the dynamic modeling of the Stewart platform. The results highlight the potential of RL techniques in overcoming the challenges associated with dynamic modeling in parallel robot systems, promising improved control performance. This enhances accuracy and reduces the development time of control algorithms in real-world applications. Nonetheless, it requires a simulation step before practical implementations.

Abstract

Cultivation of tiger prawns stands as a crucial sector in Indonesia's fisheries industry, significantly contributing to the country's foreign exchange. However, challenges persist in the cultivation process, particularly concerning suboptimal harvest outcomes. A critical factor in tiger prawn cultivation is the water temperature within shrimp ponds, a parameter directly influencing shrimp growth. The recommended normal temperature range is 28-31°C. Deviations from this range can adversely impact the shrimp's metabolic system and appetite, resulting in stress and potential mortality. Temperature fluctuations can lead to severe issues such as hindered growth, reduced productivity, and increased shrimp mortality. Real-time monitoring of air temperature emerges as a pivotal element in ensuring the success of shrimp farming. This research aims to provide a practical solution for shrimp cultivation by presenting a system that enables farmers to adjust air temperature in ponds in real-time through a user-friendly website application. The ability to promptly respond to abnormal temperature fluctuations empowers farmers to optimize cultivation conditions, thereby reducing shrimp mortality rates. The research focuses on creating a water temperature monitoring system for tiger prawn ponds using cloud storage through the Firebase platform. By implementing real-time temperature monitoring, financial risks for shrimp farmers can be mitigated, preventing losses attributed to temperature-induced shrimp mortality. The research utilizes the DS18B20 temperature sensor and WeMos D1 R2 as the control center. The website displays air temperature measurements, showcasing a high accuracy of 99% with a minimal error of 1.2%. This underscores the system's effectiveness in measuring air temperature both above and below the pond. The incorporation of IoT technology for monitoring water quality in ponds offers a practical and innovative approach to tiger prawn cultivation, with the potential to enhance production outcomes in each harvest.

Abstract

Conditional imitation learning (CIL) has proven superior to other autonomous driving (AD) algorithms. However, its performance evaluation through physical implementations is still limited. This work contributes a systematic evaluation to identify key factors potentially improving its performance. It modified convolutional neural network parameter values, such as reducing the number of filter channels and neuron units, and implemented the model into a vision-based autonomous vehicle (AV). The AV has front-wheel steering with an Ackermann mechanism since it is commonly used by passenger cars. Using the Inertia Measurement Unit, we measured the vehicle’s location and yaw angle along the experimental route. The AV had to move autonomously through new road sectors in the morning, afternoon, and night. First, an overall performance evaluation was carried out. The results showed a 99% success rate from 648 evaluation experiments under different conditions in which the 1% failure rate happened at new intersections. Then, a turning performance evaluation was conducted to identify key factors leading to failure at new intersections. They include fast speed, dazzling light reflection, late navigation command change instant, and the untrained turning driving pattern. The AV never failed while driving on the trained routes. It had a 100% success rate when driving slower, even under various lighting conditions and at various driving patterns, including untrained intersections. Although this study is limited to identifying key factors at three constant speeds, the results become the foundation for future research to improve CIL performance for AD, including by incorporating multimodal fusion and multi-route networks.
