A key feature of the project is the use of real experimental systems rather than simulation or virtual reality. NELTAB provides remote access to a wide variety of experiments, including not only basic electrical and electronic experiments but also many innovative control experiments. Students can effectively use the laboratory at any time and from anywhere. NETLAB has been in operation since July 2003.展开更多

One of the reasons might be attributed to the lack in metacognitive abilities. The aim of this study was to compare the metacognitive characteristics between non-major and major students in electric engineering and clarify the difference of metacognitive process between these two groups when solving basic problems of electronic circuit. In the experiment, the solving process was compared between non-major and major students in electric engineering using five basic problems. We found that the scores on prediction of result and confidence of own answer differed significantly between non-major and major students, and inferred that the difference of performance was due to the lack in metacognitive ability, especially the plan and the execution abilities. Both prediction of results and confidence of own answer were also found to play a significant role in effective problem solving as important components (subsystems) of metacognition.展开更多

By leading false foot wires and taking advantageof the transmitting frequency band of Mo-Zn ferrite, detonators in this new system can completely impede the direct induction of outsidecrosstalk that may cause casual firing in the ordinary as well as eleclromagnetic ones. Possible causality by lightning was discussed. Results are presented, of its safety tests on resistance to direct and alternating current, electrostatic, and crosstalk induced by damp leakagein saturated salty water.展开更多

In the first step, we review previous work that uses Deep Learning (DL) to classify and detect brain tumors. Next, we present a detailed analysis of the ML methods in tabular form to address the brain tumor morphology, accessible datasets, segmentation, extraction, and classification using DL, and ML models. Finally, we summarize all relevant material for tumor detection, including the merits, limitations and future directions. In this study, it is found that employing DL-based and hybrid-based metaheuristic approaches proves to be more effective in accurately segmenting brain tumors, compared to the conventional methods. However, the brain tumor segmentation using ML models suffers from drawbacks due to limited labelled data, variability in tumor appearance, computational memory requirements, transparency in models, and difficulty in integration into clinical workflows. By pursuing techniques such as Data Augmentation, Pre-training, Active-learning, Multimodal fusion, Hardware acceleration, and Clinical integration, researchers and developers can overcome the bottlenecks and enhance the accuracy, efficiency, and clinical utility of ML-based brain tumor segmentation models.展开更多

The starting process was analyzed and the model of wound-field synchronous electric machine was established. The change of field current of the electric machine was described mathematically for simplified exciter and rotate rectifier. Based on the traditional field control, the flux linkage compensation was introduced in d-axis current to counteract the flux ripple. Some simulation and preliminary experiments were implemented. The results show that the proposed method is feasible and effective.展开更多
