Project description:In the last two decades, a significant number of innovative sensing systems based on optical fiber sensors have been exploited in the engineering community due to their inherent distinctive advantages such as small size, light weight, immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and corrosion, and embedding capability. A lot of optical fiber sensor-based monitoring systems have been developed for continuous measurement and real-time assessment of diversified engineering structures such as bridges, buildings, tunnels, pipelines, wind turbines, railway infrastructure, and geotechnical structures. The purpose of this review article is devoted to presenting a summary of the basic principles of various optical fiber sensors, innovation in sensing and computational methodologies, development of novel optical fiber sensors, and the practical application status of the optical fiber sensing technology in structural health monitoring (SHM) of civil infrastructure.

Project description:A mass spectrometry (MS) method is described here that can reproducibly identify hundreds of peptides across multiple experiments. The method uses intelligent data acquisition to precisely target peptides while simultaneously identifying thousands of other, nontargeted peptides in a single nano-LC-MS/MS experiment. We introduce an online peptide elution order alignment algorithm that targets peptides based on their relative elution order, eliminating the need for retention-time-based scheduling. We have applied this method to target 500 mouse peptides across six technical replicate nano-LC-MS/MS experiments and were able to identify 440 of these in all six, compared with only 256 peptides using data-dependent acquisition (DDA). A total of 3757 other peptides were also identified within the same experiment, illustrating that this hybrid method does not eliminate the novel discovery advantages of DDA. The method was also tested on a set of mice in biological quadruplicate and increased the number of identified target peptides in all four mice by over 80% (826 vs 459) compared with the standard DDA method. We envision real-time data analysis as a powerful tool to improve the quality and reproducibility of proteomic data sets.

Project description:It is essential to construct structural health monitoring systems for large important bridges. Zhijiang Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge that was built recently over the Hangzhou Qiantang River (the largest river in Zhejiang Province). The length of Zhijiang Bridge is 478 m, which comprises an arched twin-tower space and a twin-cable plane structure. As an example, the present study describes the integrated system of structural health monitoring and intelligent management for Zhijiang Bridge, which comprises an information acquisition system, data management system, evaluation and decision-making system, and application service system. The monitoring components include the working environment of the bridge and various factors that affect bridge safety, such as the stress and strain of the main bridge structure, vibration, cable force, temperature, and wind speed. In addition, the integrated system includes a forecasting and decision-making module for real-time online evaluation, which provides warnings and makes decisions based on the monitoring information. From this, the monitoring information, evaluation results, maintenance decisions, and warning information can be input simultaneously into the bridge monitoring center and traffic emergency center to share the monitoring data, thereby facilitating evaluations and decision making using the system.

Project description:Most of the construction machinery for vibro-sinking stone columns, which are widely used in China, needs to be improved in terms of degree of automation. Engineering quality control is mainly carried out post-inspection; consequently, it is difficult to control the construction quality in real time. According to the construction characteristics of traditional stone column machines, we established the theory and model for the real-time monitoring of stone column construction, as well as put forward an intelligent monitoring method for stone column machines. With the comprehensive application of critical technologies such as the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurement technology, laser ranging sensors, and massive data processing, an intelligent data acquisition technique and associated monitoring equipment for stone column construction machines are developed. The data acquisition and storage of crucial construction parameters, such as pile depth, pile point co-ordinates, bearing layer current, and reverse insertion times, are realized. A large number of actual construction data are collected and the construction quality parameters of stone column machines are obtained. By comparison with third-party detection data, it is verified that the intelligent monitoring technique for stone column machines proposed in this paper is feasible.

Project description:Electromagnetic (EM) sensing is a widespread contactless examination technique with applications in areas such as health care and the internet of things. Most conventional sensing systems lack intelligence, which not only results in expensive hardware and complicated computational algorithms but also poses important challenges for real-time in situ sensing. To address this shortcoming, we propose the concept of intelligent sensing by designing a programmable metasurface for data-driven learnable data acquisition and integrating it into a data-driven learnable data-processing pipeline. Thereby, a measurement strategy can be learned jointly with a matching data post-processing scheme, optimally tailored to the specific sensing hardware, task, and scene, allowing us to perform high-quality imaging and high-accuracy recognition with a remarkably reduced number of measurements. We report the first experimental demonstration of "learned sensing" applied to microwave imaging and gesture recognition. Our results pave the way for learned EM sensing with low latency and computational burden.

Project description:MotivationThe continuing exponential accumulation of full genome data, including full diploid human genomes, creates new challenges not only for understanding genomic structure, function and evolution, but also for the storage, navigation and privacy of genomic data. Here, we develop data structures and algorithms for the efficient storage of genomic and other sequence data that may also facilitate querying and protecting the data.ResultsThe general idea is to encode only the differences between a genome sequence and a reference sequence, using absolute or relative coordinates for the location of the differences. These locations and the corresponding differential variants can be encoded into binary strings using various entropy coding methods, from fixed codes such as Golomb and Elias codes, to variables codes, such as Huffman codes. We demonstrate the approach and various tradeoffs using highly variables human mitochondrial genome sequences as a testbed. With only a partial level of optimization, 3615 genome sequences occupying 56 MB in GenBank are compressed down to only 167 KB, achieving a 345-fold compression rate, using the revised Cambridge Reference Sequence as the reference sequence. Using the consensus sequence as the reference sequence, the data can be stored using only 133 KB, corresponding to a 433-fold level of compression, roughly a 23% improvement. Extensions to nuclear genomes and high-throughput sequencing data are discussed.AvailabilityData are publicly available from GenBank, the HapMap web site, and the MITOMAP database. Supplementary materials with additional results, statistics, and software implementations are available from http://mammag.web.uci.edu/bin/view/Mitowiki/ProjectDNACompression.

Project description:There is a broad consensus that 21st century health care will require intensive use of information technology to acquire and analyze data and then manage and disseminate information extracted from the data. No area is more data intensive than the intensive care unit. While there have been major improvements in intensive care monitoring, the medical industry, for the most part, has not incorporated many of the advances in computer science, biomedical engineering, signal processing, and mathematics that many other industries have embraced. Acquiring, synchronizing, integrating, and analyzing patient data remain frustratingly difficult because of incompatibilities among monitoring equipment, proprietary limitations from industry, and the absence of standard data formatting. In this paper, we will review the history of computers in the intensive care unit along with commonly used monitoring and data acquisition systems, both those commercially available and those being developed for research purposes.

Project description:Fetal movement (FM) is an essential physiological parameter to determine the health status of the fetus. To address the problems of harrowing FM signal extraction and the low recognition rate of traditional machine learning classifiers in FM signal detection, this paper develops a passive FM signal detection system based on intelligent sensing technology. FM signals are obtained from the abdomen of the pregnant woman by using accelerometers. The FM signals are extracted and identified according to the clinical nature of the features hidden in the amplitude and waveform of the FM signals that fluctuate in duration. The system consists of four main stages: (i) FM signal preprocessing, (ii) maternal artifact signal preidentification, (iii) FM signal identification, and (iv) FM classification. Firstly, Kalman filtering is used to reconstruct the FM signal in a continuous low-amplitude noise background. Secondly, the maternal artifact signal is identified using an amplitude threshold algorithm. Then, an innovative dictionary learning algorithm is used to construct a dictionary of FM features, and orthogonal matching pursuit and adaptive filtering algorithms are used to identify the FM signals, respectively. Finally, mask fusion classification is performed based on the multiaxis recognition results. Experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed FM detection system using publicly available and self-built accelerated FM datasets. The classification results showed that the orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm was more effective than the adaptive filtering algorithm in identifying FM signals, with a positive prediction value of 89.74%. The proposed FM detection system has great potential and promise for wearable FM health monitoring.

Project description:LC-HRMS-based nontarget screening (NTS) has become the method of choice to monitor organic micropollutants (OMPs) in drinking water and its sources. OMPs are identified by matching experimental fragmentation (MS2) spectra with library or in silico-predicted spectra. This requires informative experimental spectra and prioritization to reduce feature numbers, currently performed post data acquisition. Here, we propose a different prioritization strategy to ensure high-quality MS2 spectra for OMPs that pose an environmental or human health risk. This online prioritization triggers MS2 events based on detection of suspect list entries or isotopic patterns in the full scan or an additional MS2 event based on fragment ion(s)/patterns detected in a first MS2 spectrum. Triggers were determined using cheminformatics; potentially toxic compounds were selected based on the presence of structural alerts, in silico-fragmented, and recurring fragments and mass shifts characteristic for a given structural alert identified. After MS acquisition parameter optimization, performance of the online prioritization was experimentally examined. Triggered methods led to increased percentages of MS2 spectra and additional MS2 spectra for compounds with a structural alert. Application to surface water samples resulted in additional MS2 spectra of potentially toxic compounds, facilitating more confident identification and emphasizing the method's potential to improve monitoring studies.

Project description:In recent years, with the development of materials science and architectural art, ensuring the safety of modern buildings is the top priority while they are developing toward higher, lighter, and more unique trends. Structural health monitoring (SHM) is currently an extremely effective and vital safeguard measure. Because of the fiber-optic sensor's (FOS) inherent distinctive advantages (such as small size, lightweight, immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and corrosion, and embedding capability), a significant number of innovative sensing systems have been exploited in the civil engineering for SHM used in projects (including buildings, bridges, tunnels, etc.). The purpose of this review article is devoted to presenting a summary of the basic principles of various fiber-optic sensors, classification and principles of FOS, typical and functional fiber-optic sensors (FOSs), and the practical application status of the FOS technology in SHM of civil infrastructure.
