— We present the motion planning framework for an autonomous vehicle navigating through urban environments. Such environments present a number of motion planning challenges, incl...
— For stable gait generation on the level floor, restoring mechanical energy lost by heel-strike collision at the ground is necessary. Parametric excitation principle is one of ...
Abstract— In this paper the robotic throwing task is considered with the goal of achieving high-speed dynamic manipulation. We propose a kinetic chain approach for swing motion f...
Abstract— Human interaction introduces two main constraints: Safety and Comfort. Therefore service robot manipulator can’t be controlled like industrial robotic manipulator whe...
— Flying has an advantage when compared to ground based locomotion, as it simplifies the task of overcoming obstacles and allows for rapid coverage of an area while also providi...

This paper presents a new method called Transition-based RRT (T-RRT) for path planning problems in continuous cost spaces. It combines the exploration strength of the RRT algorith...
Abstract— Knowledge of the driving environment is essential for robotic vehicles to comply with traffic rules while autonomously traversing intersections. However, due to limite...
—Multi-robot reinforcement learning is a very challenging area due to several issues, such as large state spaces, difficulty in reward assignment, nondeterministic action selecti...
—The increased popularity of wireless networks has enabled the development of localization techniques that rely on WiFi signal strength. These systems are cheap, effective, and r...
