The English word manufacturing firstly appeared in 1683 and it was derived from Latin manu factus, meaning making by hand. For more than thousands of years now, and four Industrial Revolutions, the physical, and mostly mechanical processes, associated with

Neural Networks are trained on data, learn relationships in that data, and then are deployed to the world to operate on new data. For example, a traffic sign classification AI can differentiate stop signs and speed limit signs. One potential problem is

Recent advancements in micro-electronics have led to the development of miniature-sized wearable sensors that can be used for a variety of health monitoring applications. These sensors are typically powered by small batteries which could require frequent
When people try to understand nuanced language they typically process multiple input sensor modalities to complete this cognitive task. It turns out the human brain has even a specialized neuron formation, called sagittal stratum, to help us understand

This paper aims to facilitate the use of machine learning to carry out supervised classification/regression tasks for time series data in fire research. Specifically, a feature engineering tool, FAST (Feature extrAction and Selection for Time-series), is
Mobile edge computing (MEC) is an emerging paradigm that integrates computing resources in wireless access networks to process computational tasks in close proximity to mobile users with low latency. In this paper, we propose an online double deep Q
One of the most prevalent additive manufacturing processes, the powder bed fusion process, is driven by a moving heat source that melts metals to build a part. This moving heat source, and the subsequent formation and moving of a melt pool, plays an
Abstract Many machine learning algorithms examine large amounts of data to discover insights from hidden patterns. Testing these algorithms can be expensive and time-consuming. There is a need to speed up the testing process, especially in an agile

We introduce four principles for explainable artificial intelligence (AI) that comprise the fundamental properties for explainable AI systems. They were developed to encompass the multidisciplinary nature of explainable AI, including the fields of computer
Melt pool size is a critical intermediate measure that reflects the outcome of a laser powder bed fusion process setting. Reliable melt pool predictions prior to builds can help users to evaluate potential part defects such as lack of fusion and over
