Modeling deformable shell-like objects grasped by a robot hand
Abstract— This paper models (large) deformations of shelllike objects under the grasping of a robot hand. Classical nonlinear theory of thin shells [21, pp. 186-194] is generaliz...

Morpho: A self-deformable modular robot inspired by cellular structure
— We present a modular robot design inspired by the creation of complex structures and functions in biology via deformation. Our design is based on the Tensegrity model of cellul...

Haptic manipulation of rational parametric planar cubics using shape constraints
In this paper, we show how to deform a planar rational cubic based on a local interpolation constraint while retaining the qualitative shape of the curve. An impedance-type, paral...

Integration of deformable contours and a multiple hypotheses Fisher color model for robust tracking in varying illuminant enviro
In this paper, we propose a new technique to perform figure-ground segmentation in image sequences of moving objects under varying illumination conditions. Unlike most of the alg...
