Abstract: The disclosure belongs to the technical field of biomedicine and analysis, and provides an early screening model for esophageal cancer based on oral microbiota and a construction method therefor. The model uses the following oral microbiota as markers: Prevotella, Granulicatella, Rothia, Prevotellamassilia, Blautia, Abiotrophia, Peptostreptococcus, Actinomyces, Burkholderia, Akkermansia, Fudania, Kineothrix, Bacillus, Duncaniella, and Eisenbergiella. The disclosure detects early asymptomatic esophageal cancer patients by identifying non-invasive biomarkers.

Abstract: Described herein are compositions, and more particularly to alloy compositions, methods of using the alloy compositions, and articles formed from with the alloy compositions. The alloy compositions are broadly applicable in applications requiring superalloys, including welding processes, additive manufacturing processes, metal casting processes, coating processes, repairing processes, powder metallurgy, and/or combinations thereof.

Abstract: A method for navigating a robot within an environment based on a planned route includes providing the planned route to the robot, where the planned route is based on a destination of the robot and an origin of the robot. The method includes determining whether an object obstructs the robot as the robot travels along the planned route, where the environment includes the object. The method includes moving the object from the planned route in response to the robot obstructing the object.

Abstract: A system includes a robotic system including a robot disposable at a mobile workstation, where the robot is configured to perform an automated operation on a workpiece. The system includes one or more transfer robots configured to transfer the robotic system to or from the mobile workstation. The system includes a control system configured to command the transfer robot to perform a transfer operation of the robotic system, where the transfer operation includes at least one of disposing the robotic system at the mobile workstation or retrieving the robotic system from the mobile workstation. The control system is configured to control the mobile workstation and the robotic system based on image data from the one or more infrastructure sensors, position data from the one or more on-board position sensors, the automated operation to be performed by the robot, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: A method includes defining a manufacturing transformation for a mobile workpiece based on mobile workpiece state information of the mobile workpiece, where the manufacturing transformation is an automated operation to be performed on the mobile workpiece. The method includes selecting a set of one or more manufacturing systems from among the one or more manufacturing systems for the mobile workpiece based on the manufacturing transformation and manufacturing system state information associated with the one or more manufacturing systems, where the manufacturing system state information provides data related to at least one of availability, capability, and constraints of the of the one or more manufacturing systems. The method includes defining manufacturing process steps of the manufacturing transformation based on the set of one or more manufacturing systems. The method includes defining a location for performing the manufacturing process steps on the mobile workpiece.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining acoustic data from a plurality of acoustic sensors disposed on one or more mobile systems, one or more fixed infrastructure elements, or a combination thereof. The method includes obtaining image data from a plurality of image sensors disposed on the one or more mobile systems, the one or more fixed infrastructure elements, or a combination thereof. The method includes determining whether the anomalous state is present based on the image data and the acoustic data. The method includes, in response to the anomalous state being satisfied, identifying a location associated with the anomalous state based on the acoustic data and the image data and transmitting a notification based on the anomalous state and the location.
