Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Digital twins are transforming robotics by enabling real-time monitoring, simulation, and control of physical systems. However, designing an efficient and scalable pipeline for synchronizing cyberphysical systems remains a challenge. This work presents a ROS-Docker-based framework for deploying digital twins, demonstrated with a collaborative robotic arm in a research lab setting. The proposed approach establishes a real-time connection between the physical robot and its digital counterpart while leveraging Docker containerization to enhance portability and reproducibility across different systems. The modularity of the approach easily extends support to multiple devices and platforms, laying a foundation for a flexible and scalable basis for robot control, automation, and AI-driven learning. This work paves the way for further research and the efficient deployment of digital twin applications in areas such as multi-robot systems, human-robot interaction, and autonomous decision-making.

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.
