Intelligent video surveillance systems are rapidly being introduced to public places. The adoption of computer vision and machine learning techniques enables various applications for collected video features; one of the major is safety monitoring. The efficacy of violent event detection is measured by the efficiency and accuracy of violent event detection. In this paper, we present a novel architecture for violence detection from video surveillance cameras. Our proposed model is a spatial feature extracting a U-Net-like network that uses MobileNet V2 as an encoder followed by LSTM for temporal feature extraction and classification. The proposed model is computationally light and still achieves good results—experiments showed that an average accuracy is 0.82 ± 2% and average precision is 0.81 ± 3% using a complex real-world security camera footage dataset based on RWF-2000.
The development of non-contact techniques for monitoring human vital signs has significant potential to improve patient care in diverse settings. By facilitating easier and more convenient monitoring, these techniques can prevent serious health issues and improve patient outcomes, especially for those unable or unwilling to travel to traditional healthcare environments. This systematic review examines recent advancements in non-contact vital sign monitoring techniques, evaluating publicly available datasets and signal preprocessing methods. Additionally, we identified potential future research directions in this rapidly evolving field.
In robotics, much emphasis is placed on mathematical modeling, as the creation, control, and optimization of robots for a wide field of work must be achieved precisely and adaptively. The aim of this paper is to present a systematic and structured approach to the literature review of mathematical models in robotics, critically considering mathematical frameworks that influence and shape robotics in light of current and prevailing trends. The paper underlines the complexities of maintaining accurate dynamic representations in robotic systems, revealing the challenges that arise from numerical simplifications. The study outlines the development of efficient remote-control systems that consider dynamic relationships among the components comprising the robot. The findings of the recent simulation prove that the developed mathematical model effectively supports designing an adaptive control system with artificial intelligence features, especially for autonomous mobile robotics with manipulators that are inherently complex and networked systems. If models are to accelerate robotics progress toward increasingly intelligent, adaptive, and efficient systems, they must learn to overcome some of the computational challenges while leveraging disciplinary synergies.

This study proposes a novel method for the positioning and spatial orientation control of three inextensible segments of trunk-type robots. The suggested algorithm imposes a soft constraint assumption for the end-effector’s endpoint and a mandatory constraint on its direction. Simultaneously, the algorithm by-design enforces nonholonomic features on the robot segments in the form of arcs. An approximate robot spine curve is the key to the final robot state configuration based on the given conditions. The numeric simulation showed acceptable (less than 1 s) performance for single-core processing tasks. The parametric method finds the best proximate robot state solution and represents the gray box model in addition to existing learning or black-box inverse dynamics approaches. This study also shows that a multiple inverse kinematics answer constructs a single inverse dynamics solution that defines the robot actuators’ motion profiles, synchronized in time. Finally, this text presents rotational expressions and their outlines for controlling the manipulator’s tendons.
Proposed and tested stand-alone renewable energy sources without the use of the energy output of the network. This is an important low-power renewable energy sources because there is no need to convert energy in the network when the be performed relatively expensive equipment. Sources are allocated to the commutated electric energy consumers, relatively inexpensive triac's switches. PLC control are provided the measurement of direct and indirect energy parameters. Verified that the switching process is the duration of the a user, even is not observed.
