Computation offloading for cloud robotics is receiving considerable attention in academic and industrial communities. However, current solutions face challenges: 1) traditional approaches do not consider the characteristics of networked cloud robotics (NCR) (e.g., heterogeneity and robotic cooperation); 2) they fail to capture the characteristics of tasks in a robotic streaming workflow (RSW) (e.g., strict latency requirements and varying task semantics); and 3) they do not consider quality-of-service (QoS) issues for cloud robotics. In this paper, we address these issues by proposing a QoS-aware RSW allocation algorithm for NCR with joint optimization of latency, energy efficiency, and cost, while considering the characteristics of both RSW and NCR. We first propose a novel framework that combines individual robots, robot clusters, and a remote cloud for computation offloading. We then formulate the joint QoS optimization problem for RSW allocation in NCR while considering latency, energy consumption, and operating cost, and show that the problem is NP-hard. Next, we construct a data flow graph based on the characteristics of RSW and NCR, and transform the RSW allocation problem into a mixed-integer linear programming problem. To obtain a near-optimal solution in reasonable time, we also develop a heuristic algorithm. Experiments comparing our approach with others demonstrate significant performance gains, with improved QoS and reduced execution times.Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors, and the objective grading is of great importance for treatment. This paper presents an automatic computer-aided diagnosis of gliomas that combines automatic segmentation and radiomics, which can improve the diagnostic ability. The MRI data containing 220 high-grade gliomas and 54 low-grade gliomas are used to evaluate our system. A multiscale 3D convolutional neural network is trained to segment whole tumor regions. A wide range of radiomic features including first-order features, shape features, and texture features is extracted. By using support vector machines with recursive feature elimination for feature selection, a CAD system that has an extreme gradient boosting classifier with a 5-fold cross-validation is constructed for the grading of gliomas. Our CAD system is highly effective for the grading of gliomas with an accuracy of 91.27%, a weighted macroprecision of 91.27%, a weighted macrorecall of 91.27%, and a weighted macro-F1 score of 90.64%. This demonstrates that the proposed CAD system can assist radiologists for high accurate grading of gliomas and has the potential for clinical applications.
