The Haptic Probe: Mechanized Haptic Exploration and Automated Modeling
It seems likely that humans build internal models of objects that they explore haptically, and that the complexity of an internal model is not necessarily associated with complex ...

Collecting a Why-Question Corpus for Development and Evaluation of an Automatic QA-System
Question answering research has only recently started to spread from short factoid questions to more complex ones. One significant challenge is the evaluation: manual evaluation i...

Mixed finite element methods for unilateral problems: convergence analysis and numerical studies
In this paper, we propose and study different mixed variational methods in order to approximate with finite elements the unilateral problems arising in contact mechanics. The discr...

Fingertip force control with embedded fiber Bragg grating sensors
— We describe the dynamic testing and control results obtained with an exoskeletal robot finger with embedded fiber optical sensors. The finger is inspired by the designs of a...

Non-smooth 3D Modeling of a Snake Robot with External Obstacles
Abstract— In this paper we extend a non-smooth 3D mathematical model of a snake robot to also include external obstacles to enable obstacle aided locomotion. The model is based o...
