Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2024, 58 (3): 599-610.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2024.03.017
Abstract   HTML PDF (4675KB) ( 272 )  

A light-weight, real-time approach named RTGN (real-time grasp net) was proposed to improve the accuracy and speed of robotic grasp detection for novel objects of diverse shapes, types and sizes. Firstly, a multi-scale dilated convolution module was designed to construct a light-weight feature extraction backbone. Secondly, a mixed attention module was designed to help the network focus more on meaningful features. Finally, the pyramid pool module was deployed to fuse the multi-level features extracted by the network, thereby improving the capability of grasp perception to the object. On the Cornell grasping dataset, RTGN generated grasps at a speed of 142 frame per second and attained accuracy rates of 98.26% and 97.65% on image-wise and object-wise splits, respectively. In real-world robotic grasping experiments, RTGN obtained a success rate of 96.0% in 400 grasping attempts across 20 novel objects. Experimental results demonstrate that RTGN outperforms existing methods in both detection accuracy and detection speed. Furthermore, RTGN shows strong adaptability to variations in the position and pose of grasped objects, effectively generalizing to novel objects of diverse shapes, types and sizes.

A new hybrid domain attention module S-ECA relying on multi-scale contextual information has been put forward and a algorithm focus on target information was established aiming to suppress the interference of complex backgrounds. The adaptive weight dynamic fusion structure AFF was designed to assign reasonable fusion weights to both shallow and deep features. The capability of algorithm in detecting dense small targets in complex backgrounds was improved given the application of S-ECA and AFF in the structure of PANet. The loss function Focal-EIOU was utilized instead of the loss function CIOU to accelerate model detection efficiency. Experimental results on the public dataset VisDrone2021 public dataset show that the average detection accuracy for all target classes improves from 51.5% for YOLOv5s to 57.6% for LSA_YOLO when the set input resolution is set to 1 504 × 1 504.

Abstract   HTML PDF (2815KB) ( 236 )  

Inspired by the idea that feature information between different pixel-level visual tasks can guide and optimize each other, a traffic scene perception algorithm based on multi-task learning theory was proposed for joint semantic segmentation and depth estimation. A bidirectional cross-task attention mechanism was proposed to achieve explicit modeling of global correlation between tasks, guiding the network to fully explore and utilize complementary pattern information between tasks. A multi-task Transformer was constructed to enhance the spatial global representation of specific task features, implicitly model the cross-task global context relationship, and promote the fusion of complementary pattern information between tasks. An encoder-decoder fusion upsampling module was designed to effectively fuse the spatial details contained in the encoder to generate fine-grained high-resolution specific task features. The experimental results on the Cityscapes dataset showed that the mean IoU of semantic segmentation of the proposed algorithm reached 79.2%, the root mean square error of depth estimation was 4.485, and the mean relative error of distance estimation for five typical traffic participants was 6.1%. Compared with the mainstream algorithms, the proposed algorithm can achieve better comprehensive performance with lower computational complexity.

Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2024, 58 (4): 772-778.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2024.04.012
Abstract   HTML PDF (2648KB) ( 219 )  

In response to the need for ankle rehabilitation training, a lightweight, easy-to-wear flexible ankle exoskeleton robot was designed using modular drive units and Bowden cables through analysis of ankle joint mechanics. The robot can provide assistance for ankle plantarflexion/dorsiflexion and inversion/eversion movements. Position control and torque control are used for flexible exoskeleton during the dorsiflexion and plantarflexion stages, respectively. Position control is mainly based on traditional proportional integral derivative(PID), while torque control uses force as a feedback signal to establish an admittance model between the interaction force difference and the Bowden cable core displacement compensation. The admittance parameters are dynamically adjusted through the Sigmoid deformation function to meet the requirements of assistive torque output and human-machine interaction compliance. Experimental data showed that the position tracking error was stable within 0.46 cm, and the force output error was stable within ?1.5-1.5 N, meeting the needs of human rehabilitation training.

Abstract   HTML PDF (1272KB) ( 461 )  

A behavioral decision-making model for autonomous vehicles based on driver behavior prediction was proposed, in order to solve the problem of right-of-way assignment at an unsignalized intersection in the human-machine hybrid driving environment. Fuzzy logic method was used to construct the driver's risk perception model. Then the human-driven vehicle’s behavior selection strategy was predicted based on the risk equilibrium theory and the acceptable risk interval. Finally the comprehensive utility function of autonomous vehicle was established, using game theory to solve the optimal behavior strategy combination, and realize the coordinated control of vehicles at an unsignalized intersection. Simulation results show that autonomous vehicles can effectively avoid collision accidents and improve the efficiency of autonomous vehicles passing through unsignalized intersections when facing heterogeneous drivers and guarantees that driver risk perception values are within acceptable ranges. Among the 15 experiments conducted, 93.3% of the experimental groups were able to ensure that the time difference of vehicles passing through the conflict point was larger than the acceptable safe transit interval. The travel time of the autonomous vehicle was 1.07~2.43 times that of free flow under different situations. Experimental comparison between the proposed method and the unpredicted selfish game method shows that the proposed method can significantly improve the autonomous vehicle’s traffic efficiency.

Shuhan WU,Dan WANG,Yuanfang CHEN,Ziyu JIA,Yueqi ZHANG,Meng XU
Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2024, 58 (7): 1326-1335.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2024.07.002
Abstract   HTML PDF (2102KB) ( 289 )  

In motor imagery tasks, the brain often involves simultaneous activation of multiple regions, and traditional convolutional neural networks struggle to accurately represent the coordinated neural activity across these regions. Graph convolutional network GCN is suitable for representing the collaborative tasks of different brain regions by considering the connections and relationships between nodes (brain regions) in graph data. Attention-fused filter bank dual-view GCN(AFB-DVGCN)was proposed. A dual-branch network was constructed using filter banks to extract temporal and spatial information from different frequency bands. Information complementarity was achieved by a convolutional spatial feature extraction method for dual-view graphs. In order to improve the classification accuracy, the effective channel attention mechanism was utilized to enhance features and capture the interaction information between different feature maps. Validation results in the publicly available datasets BCI Competition IV-2a and OpenBMI show that AFB-DVGCN has achieved good classification performance, and the classification accuracy is significantly higher than that of the comparison networks.

Survey of embodied agent in context of foundation model
Songyuan LI,Xiangwei ZHU,Xi LI
Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2025, 59 (2): 213-226.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2025.02.001
Abstract   HTML PDF (841KB) ( 552 )  

Foundational models in natural language processing, computer vision and multimodal learning have achieved significant breakthroughs in recent years, showcasing the potential of general artificial intelligence. However, these models still fall short of human or animal intelligence in areas such as causal reasoning and understanding physical commonsense. This is because these models primarily rely on vast amounts of data and computational power, lacking direct interaction with and experiential learning from the real world. Many researchers are beginning to question whether merely scaling up model size is sufficient to address these fundamental issues. This has led the academic community to reevaluate the nature of intelligence, suggesting that intelligence arises not just from enhanced computational capabilities but from interactions with the environment. Embodied intelligence is gaining attention as it emphasizes that intelligent agents learn and adapt through direct interactions with the physical world, exhibiting characteristics closer to biological intelligence. A comprehensive survey of embodied artificial intelligence was provided in the context of foundational models. The underlying technical ideas, benchmarks, and applications of current embodied agents were discussed. A forward-looking analysis of future trends and challenges in embodied AI was offered.

Abstract   HTML PDF (2840KB) ( 332 )  

A path planning algorithm based on the fusion of the improved A* algorithm and the random obstacle avoidance dynamic window method (ROA-DWA) was proposed in order to address the issues of excessive traversal nodes, redundant points, non-smooth paths, lack of global guidance, susceptibility to local optima, and low safety in traditional A* algorithm and dynamic window approach (DWA) for robot path planning. The search efficiency was improved by adjusting the weights of heuristic functions, Floyd’s algorithm, redundant point deletion strategy, static and dynamic obstacle classification, and speed adaptive factor. The length of the path and the number of inflection points were reduced, and the influence of known obstacles on the path was minimized to improve the efficiency of dynamic obstacle avoidance, which enabled the robot to smoothly arrive at the target point and improved the safety of the robot, and better adapted to complex dynamic and static environments. The experimental results show that the algorithm has better global optimality and local obstacle avoidance ability, and shows better advantages in large maps.

Abstract   HTML PDF (1380KB) ( 1686 )  

A multi-behavior aware service recommendation method based on hypergraph graph convolutional neural network (MBSRHGNN) was proposed to resolve the problem of insufficient high-order service feature extraction in existing service recommendation methods. A multi-hypergraph was constructed according to user-service interaction types and service mashups. A dual-channel hypergraph convolutional network was designed based on the spectral decomposition theory with functional and structural properties of multi-hypergraph. Chebyshev polynomial was used to approximate hypergraph convolution kernel to reduce computational complexity. Self-attention mechanism and multi-behavior recommendation methods were combined to measure the importance difference between multi-behavior interactions during the hypergraph convolution process. A hypergraph pooling method named HG-DiffPool was proposed to reduce the feature dimensionality. The probability distribution for recommending different services was learned by integrating service embedding vector and hypergraph signals. Real service data was obtained by the crawler and used to construct datasets with different sparsity for experiments. Experimental results showed that the MBSRHGNN method could adapt to recommendation scenario with highly sparse data, and was superior to the existing baseline methods in accuracy and relevance.

Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2025, 59 (1): 49-61.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2025.01.005
Abstract   HTML PDF (5110KB) ( 40 )  

The research on the influence of emotions on false memory helps explore the memory-processing mechanisms of the brain. The EEG signals of false memories under different emotion states were collected. The microstate analysis was used to obtain the template maps for each emotion group named from microstate 1 to microstate 5, the time segmentation of the four stages of memory recognition (early processing, familiar processing, episodic recall processing and post-extraction processing) for the emotion groups were divided according to the microstate fitting results, and the phase-locked brain functional networks were constructed in microstates with significant difference in time coverage. The results analyzed of EEG signals from both the temporal perspective and the spatial perspective show that the brain processing patterns of the emotion groups begin to appear different from the episode recall processing stage. The positive group remains in the active microstates 3 and 5 of the prefrontal region and has strong brain function, the negative group remains in microstate 1 and has poor brain function, and the neutral group remains in the active microstates 3 and 4 of the central region. The positive group spends more time and mental resources on plot association and reasoning, while the negative group stays depressed for a longer time, and the neutral group devotes more time and mental resources to information integration.

Longitudinal stress and deformation characteristics of shield tunnel crossing active fault
Han-yuan LI,Xing-gao LI,Yang LIU,Yi YANG,Ming-zhe MA
Journal of ZheJiang University (Engineering Science)    2023, 57 (2): 340-352.   DOI: 10.3785/j.issn.1008-973X.2023.02.014
Abstract   HTML PDF (3339KB) ( 258 )  

In order to study the mechanical response characteristics of shield tunnels under fault dislocation, an analytical model of the longitudinal mechanical response of shield tunnels under cross-active fault conditions was proposed by introducing the Vlasov two-parameter foundation model and considering the influence of horizontal friction. Taking the normal fault dislocation condition as a case study, the rationality of the analytical model was verified by model test and numerical simulation, and the main factors affecting the longitudinal mechanical response of the structure were further discussed. A three-dimensional numerical model considering the plastic deformation of the annular joints was established to analyze the influence of plastic deformation of the annular joint on the longitudinal force and deformation of the tunnel structure. Results show that the longitudinal mechanical response characteristics of the tunnel calculated by the analytical model are consistent with those obtained by the model test and numerical calculation. When the vertical shear stiffness of the foundation is not considered, the longitudinal bending moment of the tunnel calculated is too large. Compared with the shallow tunnel in soil conditions, the deep-buried tunnel in rock stratum has a more obvious restriction on tunnel deformation and leads to the excessive longitudinal internal force of the structure. The vertical distance between the tunnel and the fault, the width of the fault fracture zone, and the effective rate of the longitudinal bending stiffness of the structure all significantly influence the maximum longitudinal internal force of the tunnel. When considering the plastic deformation of the annular joint, the obvious plastic deformation of the shield tunnel annular joint has occurred under 20 cm fault dislocation, which severely affects the operation safety of the shield tunnel.
