Studies analyzing indoor thermal environments comprising temperature and humidity may be insufficient when obtaining data from sensors, which may be susceptible to inaccurate or failed information from internal and external factors. Therefore, this study proposes an intelligent climate monitoring using a supervised learning method for virtual hygrothermal measurement in enclosed buildings used to predict temperature and relative humidity when a sensor failure is detected. The methodology comprises the data collection from a wireless sensor network, the building of the learning model for predicting the dynamics of environmental variables, and the implementation of a sensor failure detection model. We use an artificial hydrocarbon network as the learning model for their simplicity and effectiveness under uncertain and noisy data. The experiments use data acquired in two settings: (1) a laboratory office and (2) a museum storage room. The first scenario has multiple workstations, and the staff turns on or off the air conditioning depending on the feeling of comfort, generating an uncontrolled environment for the variables of interest. The second scenario has controlled temperature and humidity to ensure the conservation conditions of the museum pieces. Both scenarios used 12 sensors that acquired data for one month, providing an average of 58,300 values for each variable. Results of the proposed methodology provide 95% of accuracy in terms of sensor failure detection and identification, and less than 0.22% of tolerance variability in temperature and humidity after sensor accommodation in both scenarios. ©Elsevier

Explainable artificial hydrocarbon networks classifier applied to preeclampsia
(Elsevier, 2024)
;
;
Explainability is crucial in domains where system decisions have significant implications for human trust in black-box models. Lack of understanding regarding how these decisions are made hinders the adoption of so-called clinical decision support systems. While neural networks and deep learning methods exhibit impressive performance, they remain less explainable than white-box approaches. Artificial Hydrocarbon Networks (AHN) is an effective black-box model that can be used to support critical clinical decisions if accompanied by explainability mechanisms to instill confidence among clinicians. In this paper, we present a use case involving global and local explanations for AHN models, provided with an automatic procedure so-called eXplainable Artificial Hydrocarbon Networks (XAHN). We apply XAHN to preeclampsia prognosis, enabling interpretability within an accurate black-box model. Our approach involves training a suitable AHN model using the cross-validation with ten repetitions, followed by a comparative analysis against four well-known machine learning techniques. Notably, the AHN model outperformed the others, achieving an F1-score of 74.91%. Additionally, we assess the efficacy of our XAHN explainer through a survey applied to clinicians, evaluating the goodness and satisfaction of the provided explanations. To the best of our knowledge, this work represents one of the earliest attempts to address the explainability challenge in preeclampsia prediction.© 2024 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Inc.

Miralles-Pechuán, Luis
In recent years computing and sensing technologies advances contribute to develop effective human activity recognition systems. In context-aware and ambient assistive living applications, classification of body postures and movements, aids in the development of health systems that improve the quality of life of the disabled and the elderly. In this paper we describe a comparative analysis of data-driven activity recognition techniques against a novel supervised learning technique called artificial hydrocarbon networks (AHN). We prove that artificial hydrocarbon networks are suitable for efficient body postures and movements classification, providing a comparison between its performance and other well-known supervised learning methods.

The development of an artificial organic networks toolkit for LabVIEW
(2015)
Ponce, Pedro
;
Molina, Arturo
;
Two of the most challenging problems that scientists and researchers face when they want to experiment with new cutting-edge algorithms are the time-consuming for encoding and the difficulties for linking them with other technologies and devices. In that sense, this article introduces the artificial organic networks toolkit for LabVIEW™ (AON-TL) from the implementation point of view. The toolkit is based on the framework provided by the artificial organic networks technique, giving it the potential to add new algorithms in the future based on this technique. Moreover, the toolkit inherits both the rapid prototyping and the easy-to-use characteristics of the LabVIEW™ software (e.g., graphical programming, transparent usage of other softwares and devices, built-in programming event-driven for user interfaces), to make it simple for the end-user. In fact, the article describes the global architecture of the toolkit, with particular emphasis in the software implementation of the so-called artificial hydrocarbon networks algorithm. Lastly, the article includes two case studies for engineering purposes (i.e., sensor characterization) and chemistry applications (i.e., blood–brain barrier partitioning data model) to show the usage of the toolkit and the potential scalability of the artificial organic networks technique. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A Novel Wearable Sensor-Based Human Activity Recognition Approach Using Artificial Hydrocarbon Networks
(2016)
;
;
Miralles-Pechuán, Luis
Human activity recognition has gained more interest in several research communities given that understanding user activities and behavior helps to deliver proactive and personalized services. There are many examples of health systems improved by human activity recognition. Nevertheless, the human activity recognition classification process is not an easy task. Different types of noise in wearable sensors data frequently hamper the human activity recognition classification process. In order to develop a successful activity recognition system, it is necessary to use stable and robust machine learning techniques capable of dealing with noisy data. In this paper, we presented the artificial hydrocarbon networks (AHN) technique to the human activity recognition community. Our artificial hydrocarbon networks novel approach is suitable for physical activity recognition, noise tolerance of corrupted data sensors and robust in terms of different issues on data sensors. We proved that the AHN classifier is very competitive for physical activity recognition and is very robust in comparison with other well-known machine learning methods.

A Flexible Approach for Human Activity Recognition Using Artificial Hydrocarbon Networks
(2016)
;
Miralles-Pechuán, Luis
;
Physical activity recognition based on sensors is a growing area of interest given the great advances in wearable sensors. Applications in various domains are taking advantage of the ease of obtaining data to monitor personal activities and behavior in order to deliver proactive and personalized services. Although many activity recognition systems have been developed for more than two decades, there are still open issues to be tackled with new techniques. We address in this paper one of the main challenges of human activity recognition: Flexibility. Our goal in this work is to present artificial hydrocarbon networks as a novel flexible approach in a human activity recognition system. In order to evaluate the performance of artificial hydrocarbon networks based classifier, experimentation was designed for user-independent, and also for user-dependent case scenarios. Our results demonstrate that artificial hydrocarbon networks classifier is flexible enough to be used when building a human activity recognition system with either user-dependent or user-independent approaches.

Design and Equilibrium Control of a Force-Balanced One-Leg Mechanism
(2018)
;
The problem of equilibrium is critical for planning, control, and analysis of legged robot. Control algorithms for legged robots use the equilibrium criteria to avoid falls. The computational efficiency of the equilibrium tests is critical. To comply with this it is necessary to calculate the horizontal momentum rotation for every moment. For arbitrary contact geometries, more complex and computationally-expensive techniques are required. On the other hand designing equilibrium controllers for legged robots is a challenging problem. Nonlinear or more complex control systems have to be designed, complicating the computational cost and demanding robust actuators. In this paper, we propose a force-balanced mechanism as a building element for the synthesis of legged robots that can be easily balance controlled. The mechanism has two degrees of freedom, in opposition to the more traditional one degree of freedom linkages generally used as legs in robotics. This facilitates the efficient use of the “projection of the center of mass” criterion with the aid of a counter rotating inertia, reducing the number of calculations required by the control algorithm. Different experiments to balance the mechanism and to track unstable set-point positions have been done. Proportional error controllers with different strategies as well as learning approaches, based on an artificial intelligence method namely artificial hydrocarbon networks, have been used. Dynamic simulations results are reported. Videos of experiments will be available at: https://sites.google.com/up.edu.mx/smart-robotic-legs/. © 2018, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

A Reinforcement Learning Method for Continuous Domains Using Artificial Hydrocarbon Networks
(2018)
;
González Mora, José Guillermo
;
Reinforcement learning in continuous states and actions has been limitedly studied in ocassions given difficulties in the determination of the transition function, lack of performance in continuous-to-discrete relaxation problems, among others. For instance, real-world problems, e.g. Fobotics, require these methods for learning complex tasks. Thus, in this paper, we propose a method for reinforcement learning with continuous states and actions using a model-based approach learned with artificial hydrocarbon networks (AHN). The proposed method considers modeling the dynamics of the continuous task with the supervised AHN method. Initial random rollouts and posterior data collection from policy evaluation improve the training of the AHN-based dynamics model. Preliminary results over the well-known mountain car task showed that artificial hydrocarbon networks can contribute to model-based approaches in continuous RL problems in both estimation efficiency (0.0012 in root mean squared-error) and sub-optimal policy convergence (reached in 357 steps), in just 5 trials over a parameter space θin R86.

An Explainable Tool to Support Age-related Macular Degeneration Diagnosis
(2022)
;
Miralles-Pechuán, Luis
;
;
Artificial intelligence and deep learning, in particu-lar, have gained large attention in the ophthalmology community due to the possibility of processing large amounts of data and dig-itized ocular images. Intelligent systems are developed to support the diagnosis and treatment of a number of ophthalmic diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), glaucoma and retinopathy of prematurity. Hence, explainability is necessary to gain trust and therefore the adoption of these critical decision support systems. Visual explanations have been proposed for AMD diagnosis only when optical coherence tomography (OCT) images are used, but interpretability using other inputs (i.e. data point-based features) for AMD diagnosis is rather limited. In this paper, we propose a practical tool to support AMD diagnosis based on Artificial Hydrocarbon Networks (AHN) with different kinds of input data such as demographic characteristics, features known as risk factors for AMD, and genetic variants obtained from DNA genotyping. The proposed explainer, namely eXplainable Artificial Hydrocarbon Networks (XAHN) is able to get global and local interpretations of the AHN model. An explainability assessment of the XAHN explainer was applied to clinicians for getting feedback from the tool. We consider the XAHN explainer tool will be beneficial to support expert clinicians in AMD diagnosis, especially where input data are not visual. © 2022 IEEE.

Multibody dynamics for human-like locomotion
(2020)
;
Multibody dynamics has been a fundamental tool for modeling, simulation and design of human-like locomotion systems. Either in the prosthetic and orthotics sector to develop devices for improvement or restoration of mobility, or as in the simulation, design, and optimization of humanoid robots. A lot of research and development has been done in these challenging areas where new mechanisms and improvements in dynamics are always welcome. The dynamic balancing of mechanisms (force and moment balancing at the fixed base) is an area that, along with multibody dynamics, can help to improve the design of human-like locomotion systems. In this chapter, the application of a force-balanced mechanism is proposed as a leg to be part of a biped robot. Stability is analyzed through the application of learning approaches based on an artificial intelligence, namely artificial hydrocarbon networks. Modeling and results from multibody dynamics simulation are presented. © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
