Applications of Autonomous Data Collection and Active Learning

In their manuscript, "Automatic Detection of Slag Eye Area Based on a Hue-saturation-value Image Segmentation Algorithm", Wang et al. use image processing methods, along with a change of color space from RGB to HSV, in order to measure the size and shape of the slag eye that develops during inert gas bubbling in ladle refining of molten steel. In "A Framework for Closed-Loop Optimization of An Automated Mechanical Serial-Sectioning System via Run-to-Run Control as Applied to a RoboMet.3D", Gallegos-Patterson et al. have implemented a closed-loop control framework to target material removal rates in a robotic serial-sectioning tool.
