A two-steps next-best-view algorithm for autonomous 3D object modeling by a humanoid robot
— A novel approach is presented which aims at building autonomously visual models of unknown objects, using a humanoid robot. Although good methods have been proposed for the spe...

Dynamic stability of variable stiffness running
— Humans and animals adapt their leg impedance during running for both internal(e.g. loading) and external(e.g. surface) changes. In this paper we examine the relationship betwee...
