Also, the problem has been used to showcase the capabilities of the multi agent reinforcement learning (MARL). The warehouse pickup and delivery work needs the agent to pick up a requested item and successfully deliver it to the intended location within the warehouse. The problem has been solved based on two approaches that include single shot and lifelong problem solution. The single shot solution has the delivery as the final goal and thus once it reaches the delivery address, it stops whereas in case of lifelong, the agent needs to deliver the item which it had picked, deliver it to the required place and then again pick up new item until requests are satisfied. The strategy used by multi agent path finding (MAPF) approach aims at constructing collision free paths to reach the delivery location but in case of multi agent reinforcement learning (MARL), the agents’ decision making tactics (or policies) are learned which are then used to help agents decide path to be followed based on environment state and agent’s position. The results show that the lifelong conflict based search (CBS) is a better option when the agents are less in number as in that case, the re-planning will take overall less time but when the agents are large in number then this re-planning can take very long to produce conflict free paths from source to goal nodes. In this case, shared experience action critic (SEAC) which is based on multi agent reinforcement learning (MARL) approach can be more efficient choice as it takes the current environment state to give the most suitable action for that time t. For this study the agents taken for learning are homogeneous in nature that can pickup and deliver any type of requested item. We can address the same pickup and delivery problem when the agents are not all same and differ in their capabilities and the type of item they can handle.</p> 2024-03-18T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2023 Shambhavi Mishra, Rajendra Kumar Dwivedi https://publications.eai.eu/index.php/airo/article/view/4082 Implementation of GPT models for Text Generation in Healthcare Domain 2023-10-05T17:21:00+00:00 Anirban Karak anirban.karak662@gmail.com Kaustuv Kunal kaustuv.kunal@greatlearning.in Narayana Darapaneni Narayana.darapaneni@northwestern.edu Anwesh Reddy Paduri anwesh@greatlearning.in <p>INTRODUCTION: This paper highlights the potential of using generalized language models to extract structured texts from natural language descriptions of workflows in various industries like healthcare domain</p><p>OBJECTIVES: Despite the criticality of these workflows to the business, they are often not fully automated or formally specified.

However, these images often face challenges due to inherent noise and illumination variations, primarily induced by the thermal activity of photons emitting a fluorescence effect. The unique nature of fluorescence introduces variations in illumination, especially during the crop's dark adaptation before experimentation. This adaptation aims to capture the full fluorescence effect, starting from minimum fluorescence and progressing to maximum fluorescence.&nbsp;In the initial stages of fluorescence, images tend to appear darker compared to those progressing towards maximum fluorescence. This variability necessitates the development of a sophisticated hybrid approach to eliminate noise and enhance contrast collaboratively, maximizing the benefits derived from CHF images. This paper introduces a novel hybrid preprocessing approach designed to address these challenges.&nbsp;The proposed method integrates five denoising techniques, namely Discrete Cosine Transform, Block Matching-3D, Low-Rank Matrix Approximation, Wiener Filtering, and Median Filtering, to mitigate the impact of noise in CHF images. Simultaneously, two enhancement techniques, Adaptive Histogram Specification and Gamma Correction, are employed to accentuate critical features, compensating for inherent variations in illumination during the fluorescence process.&nbsp;The hybrid preprocessing technique was proposed after analysing different combinations of denoising and enhancement techniques. Through qualitative and quantitative analysis of the results, it was observed that Block Matching-3D&nbsp;denoising&nbsp;with Gamma Correction produced the best output, with an Average PSNR of 0.54 and Average MSE of 0.07. This cascaded approach not only emphasizes noise reduction but also prioritizes the enhancement of crucial information within CHF images.&nbsp;By synergistically combining denoising and enhancement methods, the proposed approach optimizes the overall quality of the images, laying a foundation for improved wheat canopy segmentation. This research contributes a comprehensive and innovative solution to the challenges associated with CHF images in precision agriculture. The proposed hybrid approach holds promise for advancing the accuracy and reliability of wheat canopy segmentation, thereby enhancing the efficacy of precision agricultural practices.</p><p>&nbsp;</p> 2024-01-08T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Ankita Gupta https://publications.eai.eu/index.php/airo/article/view/5140 Utilizing Fundamental Analysis to Predict Stock Prices 2024-02-18T04:20:32+00:00 Akshay Khanpuri anwesh@greatlearning.in Narayana Darapaneni darapaneni@gmail.com Anwesh Reddy Paduri anwesh@greatlearning.in <p>Portfolio management involves the critical task of determining the optimal times to enter or exit a stock in order to maximize profits in the stock market. Unfortunately, many retail investors struggle with this task due to unclear investment objectives and a lack of a structured decision-making process. With the vast number of stocks available in the market, it can be difficult for investors to determine which stocks to invest in. As a result, there is a growing need for the development of effective investment decision support systems to assist investors in making informed decisions. Researchers have explored various approaches to building such systems, including predicting stock prices using sentiment analysis of news, articles, and social media, as well as historical trends and patterns. However, the impact of financial reports filed by companies on stock prices has not been extensively studied. This paper aims to address this gap by using machine learning techniques to develop a more accurate stock prediction model based on financial reports from companies in the Nifty 50. The financial reports considered include quarterly reports, annual reports, cash flow statements, and ratios.</p> 2024-03-22T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Akshay Khanpuri, Narayana Darapaneni, Anwesh Reddy Paduri https://publications.eai.eu/index.php/airo/article/view/5145 Improving recognition accuracy for facial expressions using scattering wavelet 2024-02-19T21:54:15+00:00 Mehdi Davari mahdi61380@gmail.com Aryan Harooni aharooni@kent.edu Afrooz Nasr afrooz2nasr@gmail.com Kimia Savoji ksavoji@g.clemson.edu Masoumeh Soleimani m.soleimani90@gmail.com <p>One of the most evident and meaningful feedback about people’s emotions is through facial expressions. Facial expression recognition is helpful in social networks, marketing, and intelligent education systems. The use of Deep Learning based methods in facial expression identification is widespread, but challenges such as computational complexity and low recognition rate plague these methods. Scatter Wavelet is a type of Deep Learning that extracts features from Gabor filters in a structure similar to convolutional neural networks. This paper presents a new facial expression recognition method based on wavelet scattering that identifies six states: anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness, and surprise. The proposed method is simulated using the JAFFE and CK+ databases. The recognition rate of the proposed method is 99.7%, which indicates the superiority of the proposed method in recognizing facial expressions.</p> 2024-03-13T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Mehdi Davari, Aryan Harooni, Afrooz Nasr, Kimia Savoji, Masoumeh Soleimani https://publications.eai.eu/index.php/airo/article/view/5955 Prediction of short circuit current of wind turbines based on artificial neural network model 2024-04-30T15:00:06+00:00 Ebrahim Aghajari eaghajari88@iau.ac.ir Ali AbdulKarim AbdulRahim aliulmayahi@gmail.com <p>The growth of renewable energy on a global scale is making significant strides in power plants. This is due to the increasing concern about climate change, the rising demand for electricity, and the necessity to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Ensuring the successful integration of new energy resources into the existing network is just as crucial as it requires the system to be reliable and adaptable. For instance, wind energy, which is one of the renewable sources, has an intermittent nature that necessitates the ability to synchronize its actions to achieve the desired system performance. The objective of this study is to utilize a new neural network system to calculate the short circuit current of power plants. Specifically, the focus is on identifying and categorizing the short circuit faults that occur between the stator coils of the squirrel cage induction generator used in wind power generation. To achieve this, a system was developed to simulate turbine data. Subsequently, four feature extraction techniques and machine learning algorithms were employed to enable early detection of short circuit faults. The numerical results obtained from the simulation demonstrated the high efficiency and accuracy of the proposed model.</p> 2024-07-17T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Ebrahim Aghajari, Ali AbdulKarim AbdulRahim https://publications.eai.eu/index.php/airo/article/view/6858 A Hybrid Approach for Robust Object Detection: Integrating Template Matching and Faster R-CNN 2024-08-08T11:29:51+00:00 Hewa Majeed Zangana hewa.zangana@dpu.edu.krd Firas Mahmood Mustafa hewa.zangana@dpu.edu.krd Marwan Omar hewa.zangana@dpu.edu.krd <p class="ICST-abstracttext"><span lang="EN-GB">Object detection is a critical task in computer vision, with applications ranging from autonomous vehicles to medical imaging.

Utilizing electrodes placed either on the skin (surface EMG) or inserted directly into the muscle(intramuscular EMG), it detects electrical signals produced during muscle contractions. EMG is widely employed in clinical and research settings to assess muscle function, diagnose neuromuscular disorders,and guide rehabilitation therapy. Over the years, EMG has evolved from a basic measurement tool into an essential technology within clinical and research environments, propelled by advances in recording techniques and digital innovations. The integration of wearable technology and artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly expanded its applications, particularly in rehabilitation and sports science. By capturing muscle electrical activity through surface or intramuscular electrodes, EMG benefits from enhanced signal processing that improves accuracy and data analysis. Despite challenges such as signal interference and the complexities of movement patterns—especially in wrist and hand rehabilitation—EMG combined with robotic systems offers real-time feedback for precise and personalized therapy. However, obstacles like cost, complexity, and variability among patients still remain. Future advancements aim to make EMG more accessible and to integrate AI for tailored rehabilitation strategies, alongside improvements in sensors and wireless communication to enhance reliability and performance. This review explores various facets of EMG,from its fundamental principles to its application in detecting disrupted wrist and hand movements through robotic approaches. It provides a comprehensive analysis of EMG’s historical and technological evolution, recent innovations like AI and wearable devices, and its extensive applications in rehabilitation and sports science. Detailed case studies illustrate its effectiveness in areas such as stroke recovery and spinal cord injury rehabilitation. Additionally, the review addresses challenges like technical limitations and patient variability while emphasizing the integration of EMG with robotic systems for personalized therapy. It also discusses the significance of real-time feedback, future enhancements in AI and sensor technology, and the pressing need for more affordable, user-friendly solutions to improve therapeutic outcomes.</p> 2024-10-08T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Kimia Savoji, Masoumeh Soleimani, Ata Jahangir Moshayedi https://publications.eai.eu/index.php/airo/article/view/5273 An Overview of OpenAI's Sora and Its Potential for Physics Engine Free Games and Virtual Reality 2024-03-01T19:52:56+00:00 Zuyan Chen 305725977@qq.com Shuai Li shuai.li@oulu.fi Md.
