    Ultra-precision machining is used to process various materials such as metals, polymers, and brittle materials at the Center of Micro/Nano Manufacturing Technology (MNMT) at Tianjin University. Such processing is a key part of precision engineering, which is a discipline that combines electrical, software, electronic, mechanical, and optical engineering in order to design machines, fixtures, and other structures with exceptionally high precision and stability. Precision engineering breaks through the precision limit of conventional manufacturing and metrology, and finds a wide range of applications in machine tools, biomedical implants, optoelectronic devices, and many other fields.

    Development of a Wireless-Controlled LED Array for the Tunable Optogenetic Control of Cellular Activities
    Yuankai Qi , Junye Chen , Xuechun Liu , Xiaoxu Zhou , Jiannan Fan , Ping Shentu , Olof Idevall-Hagren , Yingke Xu

    Nowadays, there has been a growing trend in the field of high-energy physics (HEP), in both its experimental and phenomenological studies, to incorporate machine learning (ML) and its specialized branch, deep learning (DL). This review paper provides a thorough illustration of these applications using different ML and DL approaches. The first part of the paper examines the basics of various particle physics types and establishes guidelines for assessing particle physics alongside the available learning models. Next, a detailed classification is provided for representing Jets that are reconstructed in high-energy collisions, mainly in proton-proton collisions at well-defined beam energies. This section covers various datasets, preprocessing techniques, and feature extraction and selection methods. The presented techniques can be applied to future hadron−hadron colliders (HHC), such as the high-luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) and the future circular collider−hadron−hadron (FCC-hh). The authors then explore several AI techniques analyses designed specifically for both image and point-cloud (PC) data in HEP. Additionally, a closer look is taken at the classification associated with Jet tagging in hadron collisions. In this review, various state-of-the-art (SOTA) techniques in ML and DL are examined, with a focus on their implications for HEP demands. More precisely, this discussion addresses various applications in extensive detail, such as Jet tagging, Jet tracking, and particle classification. The review concludes with an analysis of the current state of HEP using DL methodologies. It highlights the challenges and potential areas for future research, which are illustrated for each application.
