Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this study, a closed-loop micropump system and flow meter with a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller is introduced to improve the accuracy of flow rate measurement and drug delivery. The micropumps are fabricated using Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and have a drug reservoir capacity of 7µL. A capacitance-based flow meter is employed as the feedback mechanism for the PID controller. The flow rate range investigated is between 15 to 45 pL/min, with a resolution of 1.2 pF per 100 pL/min. The implementation of the PID controller enhances the accuracy of drug delivery by up to 27%.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
