Abstract
Bin picking is a challenging problem that involves using a robotic manipulator to remove, one-by-one, a set of objects randomly stacked in a container. When the objects are prone to entanglement, having an estimation of their pose and shape is highly valuable for more reliable grasp and motion planning. This paper focuses on modeling entangled tubes with varying degrees of curvature. An unconventional machine learning technique, Inductive Logic Programming (ILP), is used to construct sets of rules (theories) capable of modeling multiple tubes when given the cylinders that constitute them. Datasets of entangled tubes are created via simulation in Gazebo. Experiments using Aleph and SWI-Prolog illustrate how ILP can build explainable theories with a high performance, using a relatively small dataset and low amount of time for training. Therefore, this work serves as a proof-of-concept that ILP is a valuable method to acquire knowledge and validate heuristics for pose and shape estimation in complex bin picking scenarios.

Abstract
As the major cause of deaths worldwide, cardiovascular diseases are responsible for about 17.9 million deaths per year 1. Research on new technologies and methodologies allowed the acquisition of reliable data in several high income countries, however, in various developing countries, due to poverty and common scarcity of resources, this has not been reached yet. In this work, cardiovascular data acquired using cardiac auscultation is going to be used to detect cardiac murmurs through an innovative deep learning approach. The proposed screening algorithm was built using pre-trained models comprising Residual Neural Networks, namely Resnet50, and Visual Geometry Groups, such as VGG16 and VGG19. Furthermore, and up to our knowledge, our proposal is the first one that characterizes heart murmurs based on their frequency components, i.e. the murmur pitch. Such analysis may be used to augment the system's capability on detecting heart diseases. A novel decision-making function was also proposed regarding the murmur's pitch. From our experiments, low-pitch murmurs were more difficult to detect, with final f1-score values nearing the 0.40 value mark for all three models, while high-pitch murmurs presented an higher f1-score value of about 0.80. This might be due to the fact that the low-pitch share their respective frequency range with the normal and fundamental heart sounds, therefore making it harder for the model to correctly detect their presence whereas high-pitch murmurs' frequencies distance from the latter. © 2023 Owner/Author.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the diseases with the highest mortality rate in the world. To understand the different origins of the disease, and to facilitate the development of new ways to treat it, laboratories cultivate, in vitro, cancer cells (cell lines), taken from patients with cancer. These cell lines enable researchers to test new approaches and to have an appropriate procedure for comparison of results. The methods used in an initial study at EMBL-EBI Institute (Cambridge, UK) were based on algorithms that construct propositional like models. The results reported were promising but we believe that they can be improved. A relevant limitation of the algorithms used in the original study is the absence or severe lack of comprehensibility of the models constructed. In Life Sciences, the possibility of understanding a model is an asset to help the specialist to understand the phenomenon that produced the data. With our study we have improved the performance of forecasting models and constructed understandable models. To meet these objectives we have used Graph Mining and Inductive Logic Programming algorithms.
