Design and control of a new active cardiac stabilizer
— Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is probably an important milestone in the cardiac surgery history. This technique is currently made possible thanks to the use o...

Portability and Applicability of Virtual Fixtures across Medical and Manufacturing Tasks
– Virtual fixtures are virtual constraints that enhance human performance in motion tasks. They can either confine and/or guide a user’s motion. In this paper, we use a commerc...

Stability Analysis and Control Law Design for Acrobots
— This paper presents a novel control strategy based on a non-smooth Lyapunov function to guarantee the stability of the system in the whole motion space. Three control laws that...

Reducing Trials by Thinning-Out in Skill Discovery
In this paper, we propose a new concept, thinning-out, for reducing the number of trials in skill discovery. Thinning-out means to skip over such trials that are unlikely to improv...
