TL;DR: In this paper, a review of measurement technologies for precision positioning in manufacturing industries is presented, followed by a discussion on traceability and standards, and some advanced applications of measurement technology for manufacturing industries.
Abstract: Precision positioning of an object relative to a reference point is a common task in many activities of production engineering. Sensor technologies for single axis measurement, either linear or rotary, which form the fundamentals of measurement technologies for precision positioning, are reviewed. Multi-axis coordinate measurement methods such as triangulation and multilateration, as well as Cartesian and polar systems for specifying the position in a plane or three-dimensional (3D) space are then presented, followed by a discussion on traceability and standards. Some advanced applications of measurement technologies for precision positioning in manufacturing industries are also demonstrated.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed time-averaged LDA measurements and time-resolved numerical flow predictions to investigate the laminar flow induced by the harmonic in-line oscillation of a circular cylinder in water at rest.
Abstract: Time-averaged LDA measurements and time-resolved numerical flow predictions were performed to investigate the laminar flow induced by the harmonic in-line oscillation of a circular cylinder in water at rest. The key parameters, Reynolds number Re and Keulegan–Carpenter number KC, were varied to study three parameter combinations in detail. Good agreement was observed for Re=100 and KC=5 between measurements and predictions comparing phase-averaged velocity vectors. For Re=200 and KC=10 weakly stable and non-periodic flow patterns occurred, which made repeatable time-averaged measurements impossible. Nevertheless, the experimentally visualized vortex dynamics was reproduced by the two-dimensional computations. For the third combination, Re=210 and KC=6, which refers to a totally different flow regime, the computations again resulted in the correct fluid behaviour. Applying the widely used model of Morison et al. (1950) to the computed in-line force history, the drag and the added-mass coefficients were calculated and compared for different grid levels and time steps. Using these to reproduce the force functions revealed deviations from those originally computed as already noted in previous studies. They were found to be much higher than the deviations for the coarsest computational grid or the largest time step. The comparison of several in-line force coefficients with results obtained experimentally by Kuhtz (1996) for β=35 confirmed that force predictions could also be reliably obtained by the computations.

TL;DR: A gentle introduction to deep learning in medical image processing is given, proceeding from theoretical foundations to applications, including general reasons for the popularity of deep learning, including several major breakthroughs in computer science.
Abstract: This paper tries to give a gentle introduction to deep learning in medical image processing, proceeding from theoretical foundations to applications. We first discuss general reasons for the popularity of deep learning, including several major breakthroughs in computer science. Next, we start reviewing the fundamental basics of the perceptron and neural networks, along with some fundamental theory that is often omitted. Doing so allows us to understand the reasons for the rise of deep learning in many application domains. Obviously medical image processing is one of these areas which has been largely affected by this rapid progress, in particular in image detection and recognition, image segmentation, image registration, and computer-aided diagnosis. There are also recent trends in physical simulation, modeling, and reconstruction that have led to astonishing results. Yet, some of these approaches neglect prior knowledge and hence bear the risk of producing implausible results. These apparent weaknesses highlight current limitations of deep ()learning. However, we also briefly discuss promising approaches that might be able to resolve these problems in the future.

TL;DR: It is shown that, by an appropriate postselection mechanism, one can enter a region where Eve's knowledge on Alice's key falls behind the information shared between Alice and Bob, even in the presence of substantial losses.
Abstract: We demonstrate that secure quantum key distribution systems based on continuous variable implementations can operate beyond the apparent 3 dB loss limit that is implied by the beam splitting attack. The loss limit was established for standard minimum uncertainty states such as coherent states. We show that, by an appropriate postselection mechanism, we can enter a region where Eve's knowledge on Alice's key falls behind the information shared between Alice and Bob, even in the presence of substantial losses.
