Mobile robotic welding cell

This paper examines the market for robotization in welding production. It proposes the development of a portable robotic welding cell based on these insights. The work is divided into four sections.The first section explores the current market for robotic welding systems and evaluates the necessity of integrating such systems into welding production. It discusses advantages like increased efficiency and precision, alongside disadvantages such as high initial costs and maintenance.The second section outlines essential criteria for designing a mobile robotic welding cell. This includes constructing a technical diagram detailing the location and set of required components, defining necessary dimensional criteria, and creating a 3D model and structural diagram to illustrate component interactions.The third section involves selecting components that meet the established criteria. A functional diagram is constructed to demonstrate how these components work together to achieve the desired functionality of the mobile robotic welding cell.The final section develops an electrical circuit diagram for the connection of components in the control device. It demonstrates the logical connection of components and their signal interactions using the Ladder programming language in PLC.

Personal Information Management using Adaptive Information Systems

Nowadays people struggle to handle their personal information in an organized and efficient manner. In average individual consumes around 74Gb per day (Heim, 2017), which contributes to to information overload and limits the amount of information that the human mind can handle.Due to human uniqueness, all people have different information preferences. Adaptive Information Systems (AIS) is a relatively new direction of research on the crossroads of Information Science, Human-Computer Interaction and Artificial Intelligence. It is an alternative to the traditional "one-size-fits-all" approach in the development of Information Systems. Considering that Information overload is a user-personal problem, AIS allow involve an adaption process inside the information system activate reinforcement learning for building knowledge about the user’s behavior in information processing. As a next step collected knowledge AIS is used for performing self-adaptive changes inside the system with the final goal of reducing information overload.This study proposed a new way of handling and control information overload by using AIS, which is supposed to consider and adapt to user's personal experience in personal information processing.

Enhancement Strategies for Retrieval-Augmented Generation Systems

This thesis systematically explores the enhancement of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems within Large Language Models, emphasizing optimization of retrieval parameters and generation accuracy. We investigate optimal configurations in RAG systems, including chunk size and overlap percentages, top-k selection, query transformations, different retrieval methods, different LLMs, namely GPT-3.5-Turbo and GPT-4, discovering that a chunk size of 500 tokens generally offers the best performance. Vector search using cosine similarity emerges as the most effective retrieval method, significantly enhancing both context precision and recall across various tasks and knowledge bases. Experimentation within the CRUD-RAG framework demonstrates its applicability in diverse tasks from content creation to knowledge refinement. Our findings indicate that enhancements in retrieval settings can markedly improve the performance of RAG systems, making them more efficient and adaptable for complex information synthesis and retrieval tasks. These results affirm the potential of systematic enhancements to improve AI-driven language models in practical applications, contributing significant insights and practical approaches to the evolving landscape of RAG system research.

Artificial intelligence for crew scheduling in aviation sector

This research aims to relive the factors on applying AI in crew scheduling and rostering on low-cost airlines, IndiGO Airlines was chosen as base, to minimize the time and effort of human resources and increase effectiveness. This research looks into the possibility of utilizing artificial intelligence proposed model to schedule through a decision support system to reduce mistake from human intervention. Techniques employed includes of extensive literature searches, six qualitative interviews with two respondents per industry and 109 quantitative online surveys for crew scheduling department respondents. The data collected from the survey was analyzed and presented in the form of graphs to ease interpretation of the this research by concentrating on the challenges and costs involved in Artificial Intelligence. Thus, the techniques such as Data reduction and abduction logic have been used to find the sound information out of the whole set of information.From the survey results and interview questions, there are major benefits of incorporating AI in crew scheduling and rostering. The study also presents the best approach that low-cost airlines can adopt to lower errors and uphold performance, effectively showing that the adoption of AI in the industry is significantly beneficial
