The 5th International Conference on Mechatronic Engineering and Artificial Intelligence (MEAI 2026) Concludes Successfully !!

On September 12, 2026, the 5th International Conference on Mechatronic Engineering and Artificial Intelligence (MEAI 2026) was successfully held in Shenyang and concluded on a high note. The conference was sponsored by Shenyang Ligong University, and jointly organized by the School of Mechanical Engineering, the School of Automotive and Transportation, the School of Equipment Engineering, Shenyang Institute of Engineering, Institute of Industrial Technology for Smart Manufacturing of Shenyang Ligong University, and the Liaoning Provincial Key Laboratory of Advanced Manufacturing Technology and Equipment. Technical support was provided by Aischolar.

The conference focused on cutting-edge research areas such as mechatronic engineering, intelligent control, marine intelligent equipment, robotics, fault diagnosis, and machine vision. It brought together experts and young researchers from numerous universities both within and outside the province, providing a platform for academic exchange and research presentation.

At the opening ceremony, Researcher Jinguo Liu, Vice President of Shenyang Ligong University, delivered the opening remarks on behalf of the host institution. He extended a warm welcome to all experts, scholars, and participants, and expressed sincere appreciation for their support for the university and the development of its related disciplines. He expressed hope that the attendees would take this opportunity to deepen exchange and cooperation, and jointly promote new progress in research in the relevant fields.

👍Plenary Sessions: Focusing on the Cutting Edge of Mechatronics and AI

A number of well-known experts in the field delivered high-level keynote presentations. Professor WeinanGao from Northeastern University presented on learning-based adaptive optimal output regulation. Professor Suleman Mazhar from Harbin Engineering University introduced adaptive end-to-end underwater acoustic OFDM receiver technology based on transfer learning. Professor NingWang from Dalian Maritime University analyzed the digital intelligent system architecture, autonomous capabilities, and safety assurance for offshore wind power support vessels. Professor Mohd Rizal Arshad from Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University shared insights on AI-enabled marine swarm systems, outlining the technological pathway from coordinated autonomy to intelligent marine operations. Associate Professor Ata Jahangir Moshayedi from Dongguan University of Technology discussed AGV navigation technology based on hierarchical fusion and the WOPI framework, beyond multimodal perception. Associate Professor Liang Chuang from Shenyang Ligong University delivered a special report on intelligent fault diagnosis of rotating machinery under complex operating conditions. The presentations combined theoretical depth with strong engineering application value.

👍Oral Presentations: Showcasing the Innovative Vitality of Young Researchers

During the oral presentation session, young researchers from multiple universities took the stage one after another to present and exchange ideas on a range of topics, including multi-component shared-domain allocation topology optimization, a gecko-inspired adhesion and motion-coupled wall-climbing maintenance robot, a three-axis stabilized gimbal for high-voltage inspection UAVs, machine-vision-based colorimetric detection, small-object detection in remote sensing images, network node identification based on deep reinforcement learning, multimodal prediction of rice agronomic traits, and neural networks for hydraulic transient prediction. The session fully demonstrated the innovative thinking and research capability of the young academic community.

✨Intellectual exchange builds consensus, and academic cooperation gathers strength. 

The successful convening of MEAI 2026 further promoted academic exchange and connectivity among universities in Northeast China and across the country in related fields, injecting new momentum into the innovative development of disciplines such as mechatronic equipment, intelligent sensing, robotics, and fault diagnosis. We sincerely thank all experts and participating scholars for their active involvement and strong support, and look forward to meeting again in the future to share ideas and discuss development together.
