The clogging of piezoelectric nozzles is a typical problem in various additive binder jetting processes, such as the manufacturing of casting molds. This work aims at print head monitoring in these binder jetting processes. The structure-born noise of piezoelectric print modules is analyzed with an Artificial Neural Network to classify whether the nozzles are functional or clogged. The acoustic data are studied in the frequency domain and utilized as input for an Artificial Neural Network. We found that it is possible to successfully classify individual nozzles well enough to implement a print head monitoring, which automatically determines whether the print head needs maintenance.

Abstract The deployment of artificial neural networks-based optical channel equalizers on edge-computing devices is critically important for the next generation of optical communication systems. However, this is a highly challenging problem, mainly due to the computational complexity of the artificial neural networks (NNs) required for the efficient equalization of nonlinear optical channels with large memory. To implement the NN-based optical channel equalizer in hardware, a substantial complexity reduction is needed, while keeping an acceptable performance level. In this work, we address this problem by applying pruning and quantization techniques to an NN-based optical channel equalizer. We use an exemplary NN architecture, the multi-layer perceptron (MLP), and address its complexity reduction for the 30 GBd 1000 km transmission over a standard single-mode fiber. We demonstrate that it is feasible to reduce the equalizer’s memory by up to 87.12%, and its complexity by up to 91.5%, without noticeable performance degradation. In addition to this, we accurately define the computational complexity of a compressed NN-based equalizer in the digital signal processing (DSP) sense and examine the impact of using different CPU and GPU settings on power consumption and latency for the compressed equalizer. We also verify the developed technique experimentally, using two standard edge-computing hardware units: Raspberry Pi 4 and Nvidia Jetson Nano.

We have evolved artificial neural networks to control the wandering behavior of small robots. The task and environment were very simple—to touch as many squares in a grid as possible during a fixed period of time. A number of the simulated robots were embodied in a small Lego™ robot, controlled by a Motorola™ 6811 processor; and their performance was compared to the simulations. We observed that: (a) evolution was an effective means to program the robot's behavior; (b) progress was characterized by sharply stepped periods of improvement, separated by periods of stasis that corresponded to levels of behavioral/computational complexity; and (c) the simulated and realized robots behaved quite similarly, the realized robots in some cases outperforming the simulated ones. Introducing random noise to the simulations improved the fit somewhat (from r = 0.73 to 0.79). Hybrid simulated/embodied selection regimes for evolutionary robots are discussed.

Three artificial neural networks (ANNs) are proposed for solving a variety of on- and off-line string matching problems. The ANN structure employed as the building block of these ANNs is derived from the harmony theory (HT) ANN, whereby the resulting string matching ANNs are characterized by fast match-mismatch decisions, low computational complexity, and activation values of the ANN output nodes that can be used as indicators of substitution, insertion (addition) and deletion spelling errors.
