• Title: Machine Learning Based Compensation for Inconsistencies in Knitted Force Sensors
• Authors: Roland Aigner and Andreas St\"ockl
• Abstract summary: Knitted sensors frequently suffer from inconsistencies due to innate effects such as offset, relaxation, and drift. In this paper, we demonstrate a method for counteracting this by applying processing using a minimal artificial neural network (ANN) By training a three-layer ANN with a total of 8 neurons, we manage to significantly improve the mapping between sensor reading and actuation force.

• Abstract: Knitted sensors frequently suffer from inconsistencies due to innate effects such as offset, relaxation, and drift. These properties, in combination, make it challenging to reliably map from sensor data to physical actuation. In this paper, we demonstrate a method for counteracting this by applying processing using a minimal artificial neural network (ANN) in combination with straightforward pre-processing. We apply a number of exponential smoothing filters on a re-sampled sensor signal, to produce features that preserve different levels of historical sensor data and, in combination, represent an adequate state of previous sensor actuation. By training a three-layer ANN with a total of 8 neurons, we manage to significantly improve the mapping between sensor reading and actuation force. Our findings also show that our technique translates to sensors of reasonably different composition in terms of material and structure, and it can furthermore be applied to related physical features such as strain.

• Multi-unit soft sensing permits few-shot learning [0.0]
  A performance gain is generally attained when knowledge is transferred among strongly related soft sensor learning tasks. A particularly relevant case for transferability is when developing soft sensors of the same type for similar, but physically different processes or units. Applying methods that exploit transferability in this setting leads to what we call multi-unit soft sensing.

  It is necessary to consider the behavior of the signals in each sensor separately, to take into account their correlation and hidden relationships with each other. The graph nodes can be represented as data from the different sensors, and the edges can display the influence of these data on each other. It was proposed to construct a graph during the training of graph neural network. This allows to train models on data where the dependencies between the sensors are not known in advance.

  We argue that traditional methods have rarely made use of both times-series dynamics of the data as well as the relatedness of the features from different sensors. We propose a model, termed as DynImp, to handle different time point's missingness with nearest neighbors along feature axis. We show that the method can exploit the multi-modality features from related sensors and also learn from history time-series dynamics to reconstruct the data under extreme missingness.
