This paper describes an approach to robotic control that is patterned after models of human skill acquisition. The intent is to develop robots capable of learning how to accomplis...
—This study attempts to make a compact humanoid robot acquire a giant-swing motion without any robotic models by using reinforcement learning; only the interaction with environme...
Gaussian Markov random fields (GMRFs) are useful in a broad range of applications. In this paper we tackle the problem of learning a sparse GMRF in a high-dimensional space. Our a...
Robots have diverse capabilities and complex interactions with their environment. Software development for robotic platforms is time consuming due to the complex nature of the tas...
Accurate estimation and tracking of dynamic tissue deformation is important to motion compensation, intra-operative surgical guidance and navigation in minimally invasive surgery. ...
