Optimal Feedback Control for anthropomorphic manipulators
— We study target reaching tasks of redundant anthropomorphic manipulators under the premise of minimal energy consumption and compliance during motion. We formulate this motor c...

Differentiable and piecewise differentiable gaits for snake robots
—This paper describes a series of gaits which we developed for a free crawling snake robot. Snake robots, a class of hyper-redundant mechanisms, can use their many degrees of fre...

Hormone-Inspired Self-Organization and Distributed Control of Robotic Swarms
The control of robot swarming in a distributed manner is a difficult problem because global behaviors must emerge as a result of many local actions. This paper uses a bio-inspired ...
