This volume is intended to help advance the field of artificial neural networks along the lines of complexity present in animal brains. In particular, we are interested in examin...
This paper describes a multi-layered hierarchical motion planning strategy for a class of self-reconfigurable modular robotic systems, I-Cubes. The approach is based on the synthe...
Abstract— Self-assembly is a process through which an organized structure can spontaneously form from simple parts. Taking inspiration from biological examples of self-assembly, ...
Abstract— We present the design and realization of a conformable tactile sensor skin(patent pending). The skin is organized as a network of self-contained modules consisting of t...
In this paper we propose an attention-based vision system for the JAST interactive dialog robot. The robotic vision system incorporates three submodules: object recognition, gestu...
