Boundary-Free Contextual Biasing: Depth-Adaptive Gating and Reading-Space Matching for Unsegmented Languages

Muhammad Huzaifah, Yu Pan, Zachary Yeo +2

Contextual biasing supplies an ASR system with a list of expected words at inference time, but existing methods rely on word boundaries that Japanese and Chinese do not provide. We…

An extended deep energy method for thermo-mechanical crack propagation

Han Zhang, Mehrisadat Makki Alamdari, Babak Shahbodagh +4

Thermo-mechanical fracture couples transient heat conduction on a cracked domain with a crack that grows as the temperature and the displacement evolve. Neural energy solvers have…

A Vehicle-Integrated Approach to Digital Twin Deployment for Bridges Through Drive-By Sensing

Zihao Liu, Daigo Kawabe, Jiaji Wang +2

Ageing bridge infrastructure is a growing global concern, yet conventional Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems are costly and difficult to scale, and routine visual inspecti…

A mesh-free multiresolution deep energy method with phase-field modeling of brittle fracture

Han Zhang, Mehrisadat Makki Alamdari, Babak Shahbodagh +4

Phase-field modeling of brittle fracture removes the need to track cracks explicitly by recasting their evolution as the minimization of an energy functional. In return it requires…

Output-only road roughness identification from vehicle axle accelerations through a universal smoothing method

Zihao Liu, Daniel Dias-da-Costa, Tommy Chan +3

This paper presents an output-only method to identify road roughness profiles from axle accelerations of a moving vehicle. A two degree of freedom half-car model is discretised wit…
