By utilizing three ＂four-bar mechanism joint＂ in series and wire coupling mecha- nism, the master finger transmission ratio is kept exactly 1：1.4：1 in the whole movement range and it can make active motions in both extension and flexion directions. Additionally, to assure faster data transmission and near zero delay in the master-slave operation, a digital signal processing/field programmable gate array （DSP/FPGA-FPGA） structure with 200μs cycle time is designed. The operating modes of the master finger can be contact or non-contact, which depends on the motion states of a slave finger, free motion or constrained motion. The position control employed in non-contact mode ensures unconstrained motion and the force control adopted in contact mode guarantees natural contact sensation. To evaluate the performances of the master finger, an experiment between the master finger and a DLR/HTT dexterous finger is conducted. The results demonstrate that this new type master finger can augment telepresence.展开更多

First, the proposed Chinese character learning model uses the semanties of loeal context and global context to learn the representation of Chinese characters. Then, Chinese word segmentation model is built by a neural network, while the segmentation model is trained with the eharaeter representations as its input features. Finally, experimental results show that Chinese charaeter representations can effectively learn the semantic information. Characters with similar semantics cluster together in the visualize space. Moreover, the proposed Chinese word segmentation model also achieves a pretty good improvement on precision, recall and f-measure.展开更多
