Abstract— In this paper, we describe a method for coordinating multiple robots in a pursuit-evasion domain. We examine the problem of multiple robotic pursuers attempting to loca...
— The polychaete annelid marine worms propel themselves in a variety of challenging locomotion environments by a unique form of tail-to-head body undulations, combined with the s...

Abstract— We provide a method for planning under uncertainty for robotic manipulation by partitioning the configuration space into a set of regions that are closed under complia...
— We consider the problem of generating global feasible trajectories for nonholonomic mobile robots in the presence of moving obstacles. The global trajectory is composed of regi...
Abstract— Imitation learning, or programming by demonstration (PbD), holds the promise of allowing robots to acquire skills from humans with domain-specific knowledge, who nonet...
—In this paper we propose the progressive clamping method to better model the kinematic anisotropy of joint limits for virtual mannequins or robots. Like recent approaches our me...
— This paper addresses the problem of detecting people in two dimensional range scans. Previous approaches have mostly used pre-defined features for the detection and tracking o...
Abstract— In this paper, we present an image-based markerless human motion capture system, intended for humanoid robot systems. The restrictions set by this ambitious goal are nu...
