Abstract— This paper deals with a discret-time control approach, proposed for the control of a five-link, four-actuator planar biped walker. The approach is based on the choice ...
— We address the problem of foothold selection in robotic legged locomotion over very rough terrain. The difficulty of the problem we address here is comparable to that of human...

Abstract— A novel heart surface motion estimation framework for a robotic surgery on a stabilized beating heart is proposed. It includes an approach for the reconstruction and pr...
— Sampling-based motion planners are often used to solve very high-dimensional planning problems. Many recent algorithms use projections of the state space to estimate properties...
— We study a simple algorithm inspired by the Brazil nut effect for achieving segregation in a swarm of mobile robots. The algorithm lets each robot mimic a particle of a certain...
Abstract— Particle Filters have been widely used as a powerful optimization tool for nonlinear, non-Gaussian dynamic models such as Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) a...
— Programming a humanoid robot to perform an action that takes the robot’s complex dynamics into account is a challenging problem. Traditional approaches typically require high...
