— Computationally efficient motion planning must avoid exhaustive exploration of configuration space. We argue that this can be accomplished most effectively by carefully balan...
— Randomly expanding trees are very effective in exploring high-dimensional spaces. Consequently, they are a powerful algorithmic approach to sampling-based single-query motion p...
In a number of industrial, space, or mobile systems applications, reaction forces and moments transmitted by a manipulator to its base are undesirable. Based on force and moment t...
Abstract-- Motion planning of deformable objects is challenging due to the high degrees-of-freedom inherent in deformation as well as the computational cost of producing physically...
— Research on robotic manipulation has mainly focused on manipulating rigid objects so far. However, many important application domains require manipulating deformable objects, e...
