As a highly integrated mechatronics system, sensors and their signal processing system are integrated inside each joint. To lighten the weight, almost all mechanical parts are made of aluminum and the robot control system is placed outside. The modular concept is adopted during the robot design process for time and cost saving. Considering the much greater torque acted on the two shoulder joints, the joint shells are strengthened in the design to increase joint stiffness and suppress system vibration. Meanwhile, to simplify the maintenance, a new spring pins electronic connector is designed to disassemble every joint, connector and link independently without cutting any cables. The teleoperation technology enables the robot to offer more convenient service definitely for people' s daily life. Virtual reality technology is used to solve the time delay problem during teleoperation. Finally, two typical daily chore experiments are implemented to prove the manipulation ability of the dexterous robot arm.展开更多

文摘Attribute-Based Encryption(ABE)has emerged as a fundamental access control mechanism in data sharing,enabling data owners to define flexible access policies.A critical aspect of ABE is key revocation,which plays a pivotal role in maintaining security.However,existing key revocation mechanisms face two major challenges:(1)High overhead due to ciphertext and key updates,primarily stemming from the reliance on revocation lists during attribute revocation,which increases computation and communication costs.(2)Limited universality,as many attribute revocation mechanisms are tailored to specific ABE constructions,restricting their broader applicability.To address these challenges,we propose LUAR(Lightweight and Universal Attribute Revocation),a novel revocation mechanism that leverages Intel Software Guard Extensions(SGX)while minimizing its inherent limitations.Given SGX’s constrained memory(≈90 MB in a personal computer)and susceptibility to side-channel attacks,we carefully manage its usage to reduce reliance while mitigating potential collusion risks between cloud service providers and users.To evaluate LUAR’s lightweight and universality,we integrate it with the classic BSW07 scheme,which can be seamlessly replaced with other ABE constructions.Experimental results demonstrate that LUAR enables secure attribute revocation with low computation and communication overhead.The processing time within the SGX environment remains stable at approximately 55 ms,regardless of the complexity of access policies,ensuring no additional storage or computational burden on SGX.Compared to the Hardware-based Revocable Attribute-Based Encryption(HR-ABE)scheme(IEEE S&P 2024),LUAR incurs a slightly higher computational cost within SGX;however,the overall time from initiating a data request to obtaining plaintext is shorter.As access policies grow more complex,LUAR’s advantages become increasingly evident,showcasing its superior efficiency and broader applicability.

文摘The strength-ductility trade-off in low-Mn lightweight steels is a significant challenge due to the low thermal stability of austenite and the presence ofδ-ferrite.Two types of low-Mn lightweight steels containing V and NbVMo microalloying elements were developed by warm rolling.Among these,NbVMo steel demonstrated superior properties,achieving a tensile strength of~1.2 GPa and a product of strength and elongation exceeding 45 GPa%.In-depth mechanism analysis by atom probe tomography and quasi-in-situ electron backscatter diffraction revealed that different microalloying compositions influence the mechanical properties by strengtheningδ-ferrite,refining retained austenite and homogenizing matrix strain.In NbVMo steel,δ-ferrite strengthening is attributed to the synergistic effects of(V,Mo,Cr,Nb)C composite precipitation,fine NbC and MoC precipitates,and the solid solution strengthening of Mo.These mechanisms collectively contribute to a higher yield strength andδ-ferrite microhardness compared to V steel.Consequently,δ-ferrite and the surrounding matrix in NbVMo steel exhibit coordinated elongation during deformation,enhancing the ductility.The improved microstructural and strain uniformity in NbVMo steel mitigates stress concentration effects onδ-ferrite deformation and serves as a barrier that delays the transformation of retained austenite.In contrast,the retained austenite in V steel exhibits a blocky morphology with larger grain sizes,resulting in lower stability.Combined with localized stress concentrations due to non-uniform strain distribution,this leads to premature transformation of retained austenite to alleviate stress,ultimately impairing elongation and the continuity of strain hardening.Furthermore,the precipitation mechanisms of(V,Mo,Cr,Nb)C composite precipitates are elucidated.

文摘To address critical challenges in nighttime ship detection—high small-target missed detection(over 20%),insufficient lightweighting,and limited generalization due to scarce,low-quality datasets—this study proposes a systematic solution.First,a high-quality Night-Ships dataset is constructed via CycleGAN-based day-night transfer,combined with a dual-threshold cleaning strategy(Laplacian variance sharpness filtering and brightness-color deviation screening).Second,a Cross-stage Lightweight Fusion-You Only Look Once version 8(CLF-YOLOv8)is proposed with key improvements:the Neck network is reconstructed by replacing Cross Stage Partial(CSP)structure with the Cross Stage Partial Multi-Scale Convolutional Block(CSP-MSCB)and integrating Bidirectional Feature Pyramid Network(BiFPN)for weighted multi-scale fusion to enhance small-target detection;a Lightweight Shared Convolutional and Separated Batch Normalization Detection-Head(LSCSBD-Head)with shared convolutions and layer-wise Batch Normalization(BN)reduces parameters to 1.8M(42% fewer than YOLOv8n);and the FocalMinimum Point Distance Intersection over Union(Focal-MPDIoU)loss combines Minimum Point Distance Intersection over Union(MPDIoU)geometric constraints and Focal weighting to optimize low-overlap targets.Experiments show CLFYOLOv8 achieves 97.6%mAP@0.5(0.7% higher than YOLOv8n)with 1.8 M parameters,outperforming mainstream models in small-target detection,overlapping target discrimination,and adaptability to complex lighting.

文摘Single Image Super-Resolution(SISR)seeks to reconstruct high-resolution(HR)images from lowresolution(LR)inputs,thereby enhancing visual fidelity and the perception of fine details.While Transformer-based models—such as SwinIR,Restormer,and HAT—have recently achieved impressive results in super-resolution tasks by capturing global contextual information,these methods often suffer from substantial computational and memory overhead,which limits their deployment on resource-constrained edge devices.To address these challenges,we propose a novel lightweight super-resolution network,termed Binary Attention-Guided Information Distillation(BAID),which integrates frequency-aware modeling with a binary attention mechanism to significantly reduce computational complexity and parameter count whilemaintaining strong reconstruction performance.The network combines a high–low frequency decoupling strategy with a local–global attention sharing mechanism,enabling efficient compression of redundant computations through binary attention guidance.At the core of the architecture lies the Attention-Guided Distillation Block(AGDB),which retains the strengths of the information distillation framework while introducing a sparse binary attention module to enhance both inference efficiency and feature representation.Extensive×4 superresolution experiments on four standard benchmarks—Set5,Set14,BSD100,and Urban100—demonstrate that BAID achieves Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio(PSNR)values of 32.13,28.51,27.47,and 26.15,respectively,with only 1.22 million parameters and 26.1 G Floating-Point Operations(FLOPs),outperforming other state-of-the-art lightweight methods such as Information Multi-Distillation Network(IMDN)and Residual Feature Distillation Network(RFDN).These results highlight the proposed model’s ability to deliver high-quality image reconstruction while offering strong deployment efficiency,making it well-suited for image restoration tasks in resource-limited environments.
文摘Deep learning has been recognized as an effective method for indoor positioning.However,most existing real-valued neural networks(RVNNs)treat the two constituent components of complex-valued channel state information(CSI)as real-valued inputs,potentially discarding useful information embedded in the original CSI.In addition,existing positioning models generally face the contradiction between computational complexity and positioning accuracy.To address these issues,we combine graph neural network(GNN)with complex-valued neural network(CVNN)to construct a lightweight indoor positioning model named CGNet.CGNet employs complexvalued convolution operation to directly process the original CSI data,fully exploiting the correlation between real and imaginary parts of CSI while extracting local features.Subsequently,the feature values are treated as nodes,and conditional position encoding(CPE)module is applied to add positional information.To reduce the number of connections in the graph structure and lower themodel complexity,feature information is mapped to an efficient graph structure through a dynamic axial graph construction(DAGC)method,with global features extracted usingmaximum relative graph convolution(MRConv).Experimental results show that,on the CTW dataset,CGNet achieves a 10%improvement in positioning accuracy compared to existing methods,while the number of model parameters is only 0.8 M.CGNet achieves excellent positioning accuracy with very few parameters.

文摘The ubiquity of mobile devices has driven advancements in mobile object detection.However,challenges in multi-scale object detection in open,complex environments persist due to limited computational resources.Traditional approaches like network compression,quantization,and lightweight design often sacrifice accuracy or feature representation robustness.This article introduces the Fast Multi-scale Channel Shuffling Network(FMCSNet),a novel lightweight detection model optimized for mobile devices.FMCSNet integrates a fully convolutional Multilayer Perceptron(MLP)module,offering global perception without significantly increasing parameters,effectively bridging the gap between CNNs and Vision Transformers.FMCSNet achieves a delicate balance between computation and accuracy mainly by two key modules:the ShiftMLP module,including a shift operation and an MLP module,and a Partial group Convolutional(PGConv)module,reducing computation while enhancing information exchange between channels.With a computational complexity of 1.4G FLOPs and 1.3M parameters,FMCSNet outperforms CNN-based and DWConv-based ShuffleNetv2 by 1%and 4.5%mAP on the Pascal VOC 2007 dataset,respectively.Additionally,FMCSNet achieves a mAP of 30.0(0.5:0.95 IoU threshold)with only 2.5G FLOPs and 2.0M parameters.It achieves 32 FPS on low-performance i5-series CPUs,meeting real-time detection requirements.The versatility of the PGConv module’s adaptability across scenarios further highlights FMCSNet as a promising solution for real-time mobile object detection.

文摘Detecting small forest fire targets in unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)images is difficult,as flames typically cover only a very limited portion of the visual scene.This study proposes Context-guided Compact Lightweight Network(CCLNet),an end-to-end lightweight model designed to detect small forest fire targets while ensuring efficient inference on devices with constrained computational resources.CCLNet employs a three-stage network architecture.Its key components include three modules.C3F-Convolutional Gated Linear Unit(C3F-CGLU)performs selective local feature extraction while preserving fine-grained high-frequency flame details.Context-Guided Feature Fusion Module(CGFM)replaces plain concatenation with triplet-attention interactions to emphasize subtle flame patterns.Lightweight Shared Convolution with Separated Batch Normalization Detection(LSCSBD)reduces parameters through separated batch normalization while maintaining scale-specific statistics.We build TF-11K,an 11,139-image dataset combining 9139 self-collected UAV images from subtropical forests and 2000 re-annotated frames from the FLAME dataset.On TF-11K,CCLNet attains 85.8%mAP@0.5,45.5%mean Average Precision(mAP)@[0.5:0.95],87.4%precision,and 79.1%recall with 2.21 M parameters and 5.7 Giga Floating-point Operations Per Second(GFLOPs).The ablation study confirms that each module contributes to both accuracy and efficiency.Cross-dataset evaluation on DFS yields 77.5%mAP@0.5 and 42.3%mAP@[0.5:0.95],indicating good generalization to unseen scenes.These results suggest that CCLNet offers a practical balance between accuracy and speed for small-target forest fire monitoring with UAVs.

文摘Bird's-eye-view(BEV)perception is a core technology for autonomous driving systems.However,existing solutions face the dilemma of high costs associated with multimodal methods and limited performance of vision-only approaches.To address this issue,this paper proposes a framework named“a lightweight pure visual BEV perception method based on dual distillation of spatial-temporal knowledge”.This framework innovatively designs a lightweight vision-only student model based on Res Net,which leverages a dual distillation mechanism to learn from a powerful teacher model that integrates temporal information from both image and light detection and ranging(LiDAR)modalities.Specifically,we distill efficient multi-modal feature extraction and spatial fusion capabilities from the BEVFusion model,and distill advanced temporal information fusion and spatiotemporal attention mechanisms from the BEVFormer model.This dual distillation strategy enables the student model to achieve perception performance close to that of multi-modal models without relying on Li DAR.Experimental results on the nu Scenes dataset demonstrate that the proposed model significantly outperforms classical vision-only algorithms,achieves comparable performance to current state-of-the-art vision-only methods on the nu Scenes detection leaderboard in terms of both mean average precision(mAP)and the nu Scenes detection score(NDS)metrics,and exhibits notable advantages in inference computational efficiency.Although the proposed dual-teacher paradigm incurs higher offline training costs compared to single-model approaches,it yields a streamlined and highly efficient student model suitable for resource-constrained real-time deployment.This provides an effective pathway toward low-cost,high-performance autonomous driving perception systems.

文摘In modern construction,Lightweight Aggregate Concrete(LWAC)has been recognized as a vital material of concern because of its unique properties,such as reduced density and improved thermal insulation.Despite the extensive knowledge regarding its macroscopic properties,there is a wide knowledge gap in understanding the influence of microscale parameters like aggregate porosity and volume ratio on the mechanical response of LWAC.This study aims to bridge this knowledge gap,spurred by the need to enhance the predictability and applicability of LWAC in various construction environments.With the help of advanced numerical methods,including the finite element method and a random circular aggregate model,this study critically evaluates the role played by these microscale factors.We found that an increase in the aggregate porosity from 23.5%to 48.5%leads to a drastic change of weakness from the bonding interface to the aggregate,reducing compressive strength by up to 24.2%and tensile strength by 27.8%.Similarly,the increase in the volume ratio of lightweight aggregate from 25%to 40%leads to a reduction in compressive strength by 13.0%and tensile strength by 9.23%.These results highlight the imperative role of microscale properties on the mechanical properties of LWAC.By supplying precise quantitative details on the effect of porosity and aggregate volume ratio,this research makes significant contributions to construction materials science by providing useful recommendations for the creation and optimization of LWAC with improved performance and sustainability in construction.

文摘In printed circuit board(PCB)manufacturing,surface defects can significantly affect product quality.To address the performance degradation,high false detection rates,and missed detections caused by complex backgrounds in current intelligent inspection algorithms,this paper proposes CG-YOLOv8,a lightweight and improved model based on YOLOv8n for PCB surface defect detection.The proposed method optimizes the network architecture and compresses parameters to reduce model complexity while maintaining high detection accuracy,thereby enhancing the capability of identifying diverse defects under complex conditions.Specifically,a cascaded multi-receptive field(CMRF)module is adopted to replace the SPPF module in the backbone to improve feature perception,and an inverted residual mobile block(IRMB)is integrated into the C2f module to further enhance performance.Additionally,conventional convolution layers are replaced with GSConv to reduce computational cost,and a lightweight Convolutional Block Attention Module based Convolution(CBAMConv)module is introduced after Grouped Spatial Convolution(GSConv)to preserve accuracy through attention mechanisms.The detection head is also optimized by removing medium and large-scale detection layers,thereby enhancing the model’s ability to detect small-scale defects and further reducing complexity.Experimental results show that,compared to the original YOLOv8n,the proposed CG-YOLOv8 reduces parameter count by 53.9%,improves mAP@0.5 by 2.2%,and increases precision and recall by 2.0%and 1.8%,respectively.These improvements demonstrate that CG-YOLOv8 offers an efficient and lightweight solution for PCB surface defect detection.

文摘Lightweight nodes are crucial for blockchain scalability,but verifying the availability of complete block data puts significant strain on bandwidth and latency.Existing data availability sampling(DAS)schemes either require trusted setups or suffer from high communication overhead and low verification efficiency.This paper presents ISTIRDA,a DAS scheme that lets light clients certify availability by sampling small random codeword symbols.Built on ISTIR,an improved Reed–Solomon interactive oracle proof of proximity,ISTIRDA combines adaptive folding with dynamic code rate adjustment to preserve soundness while lowering communication.This paper formalizes opening consistency and prove security with bounded error in the random oracle model,giving polylogarithmic verifier queries and no trusted setup.In a prototype compared with FRIDA under equal soundness,ISTIRDA reduces communication by 40.65%to 80%.For data larger than 16 MB,ISTIRDA verifies faster and the advantage widens;at 128 MB,proofs are about 60%smaller and verification time is roughly 25%shorter,while prover overhead remains modest.In peer-to-peer emulation under injected latency and loss,ISTIRDA reaches confidence more quickly and is less sensitive to packet loss and load.These results indicate that ISTIRDA is a scalable and provably secure DAS scheme suitable for high-throughput,large-block public blockchains,substantially easing bandwidth and latency pressure on lightweight nodes.
文摘This study proposes a lightweight rice disease detection model optimized for edge computing environments.The goal is to enhance the You Only Look Once(YOLO)v5 architecture to achieve a balance between real-time diagnostic performance and computational efficiency.To this end,a total of 3234 high-resolution images(2400×1080)were collected from three major rice diseases Rice Blast,Bacterial Blight,and Brown Spot—frequently found in actual rice cultivation fields.These images served as the training dataset.The proposed YOLOv5-V2 model removes the Focus layer from the original YOLOv5s and integrates ShuffleNet V2 into the backbone,thereby resulting in both model compression and improved inference speed.Additionally,YOLOv5-P,based on PP-PicoDet,was configured as a comparative model to quantitatively evaluate performance.Experimental results demonstrated that YOLOv5-V2 achieved excellent detection performance,with an mAP 0.5 of 89.6%,mAP 0.5–0.95 of 66.7%,precision of 91.3%,and recall of 85.6%,while maintaining a lightweight model size of 6.45 MB.In contrast,YOLOv5-P exhibited a smaller model size of 4.03 MB,but showed lower performance with an mAP 0.5 of 70.3%,mAP 0.5–0.95 of 35.2%,precision of 62.3%,and recall of 74.1%.This study lays a technical foundation for the implementation of smart agriculture and real-time disease diagnosis systems by proposing a model that satisfies both accuracy and lightweight requirements.

文摘The challenges facing electric vehicles with respect to driving range and safety make the design of a lightweight and safe battery pack a critical issue.This study proposes a multifunctional structural battery system comprising cylindrical battery cells and a surrounding lightweight lattice metamaterial.The lattice density distribution was optimized via topological optimization to minimize stress on the battery during compression.Surrounding a single 18650 cylindrical battery cell,non-uniform lattices were designed featuring areas of increased density in an X-shaped pattern and then fabricated by additive manufacturing using stainless steel powders.Compression testing of the assembled structural battery system revealed that the stronger lattice units in the X-shaped lattice pattern resisted deformation and helped delay the emergence of a battery short circuit.Specifically,the short circuit of the structural battery based on a variable-density patterned lattice was∼166%later than that with a uniform-density lattice.Finite element simulation results for structural battery systems comprising nine battery cells indicate that superior battery protection is achieved in specially packed batteries via non-uniform lattices with an interconnected network of stronger lattices.The proposed structural battery systems featuring non-uniform lattices will shed light on the next generation of lightweight and impact-resistant electric vehicle designs.

文摘This paper presents a novel remote controlled dexterous robot arm with 6 degrees of freedom (DOF). As a highly integrated mechatronics system, sensors and their signal processing system are integrated inside each joint. To lighten the weight, almost all mechanical parts are made of aluminum and the robot control system is placed outside. The modular concept is adopted during the robot design process for time and cost saving. Considering the much greater torque acted on the two shoulder joints, the joint shells are strengthened in the design to increase joint stiffness and suppress system vibration. Meanwhile, to simplify the maintenance, a new spring pins electronic connector is designed to disassemble every joint, connector and link independently without cutting any cables. The teleoperation technology enables the robot to offer more convenient service definitely for people' s daily life. Virtual reality technology is used to solve the time delay problem during teleoperation. Finally, two typical daily chore experiments are implemented to prove the manipulation ability of the dexterous robot arm.
