Wireless sensor/actuator networks (WSANs) are emerging rapidly as a newgeneration of sensor networks. Despite intensive research in wireless sensor networks(WSNs), limited work has been found in the open literature in the field of WSANs. Inparticular, quality-of-service (QoS) management in WSANs remains an important issue yetto be investigated. As an attempt in this direction, this paper develops a fuzzy logic controlbased QoS management (FLC-QM) scheme for WSANs with constrained resources and indynamic and unpredictable environments. Taking advantage of the feedback controltechnology, this scheme deals with the impact of unpredictable changes in traffic load on theQoS of WSANs. It utilizes a fuzzy logic controller inside each source sensor node to adaptsampling period to the deadline miss ratio associated with data transmission from the sensorto the actuator. The deadline miss ratio is maintained at a pre-determined desired level sothat the required QoS can be achieved. The FLC-QM has the advantages of generality,scalability, and simplicity. Simulation results show that the FLC-QM can provide WSANswith QoS support.

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) aim to automate transportation fully. A key part of this automation includes tasks such as traffic light detection and automatic braking. While indoor experiments are prevalent due to computational demands and safety concerns, there is a pressing need for research and development of new features to achieve complete automation, addressing real-world implementation challenges by testing them in outdoor environments.

The increasing concern about global warming and the depletion of fossil fuel reserves has led to a growing interest in alternative energy sources, particularly fuel cells (FCs). These green energy sources convert chemical energy into electrical energy, offering advantages such as quick initiation, high power density, and efficient operation at low temperatures. However, the performance of FCs is influenced by changes in operating temperature, and optimal efficiency is achieved by operating them at their maximum power point (MPP).

A new risk assessment model of venous thromboembolism by considering fuzzy population.

Background: Inpatients with high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) usually face serious threats to their health and economic conditions. Many studies using machine learning (ML) models to predict VTE risk overlook the impact of class-imbalance problem due to the low incidence rate of VTE, resulting in inferior and unstable model performance, which hinders their ability to replace the Padua model, a widely used linear weighted model in clinic. Our study aims to develop a new VTE risk assessment model suitable for Chinese medical inpatients.
