Modeling and control of a pair of robot fingers with saddle joint under orderless actuations
A new robot hand dynamics model with rolling constraints and with a saddle joint at one finger is proposed, where two saddle-joint actuations are considered to be orderless. Spinni...

Global Minimum for Active Contour Models: A Minimal Path Approach
A new boundary detection approach for shape modeling is presented. It detects the global minimum of an active contour model's energy between two end points. Initialization is ...

Finding a Closed Boundary by Growing Minimal Paths from a Single Point on 2D or 3D Images
In this paper, we present a new method for segmenting closed contours and surfaces. Our work builds on a variant of the Fast Marching algorithm. First, an initial point on the des...

Bifurcation and basin in two coupled parametrically forced logistic maps
— Two coupled logistic maps whose parameters are forced into periodic varying are investigated. From the investigation of bifurcation in this system, nonexistence of odd periodic...

Weak Stability Boundary and Invariant Manifolds
The concept of weak stability boundary has been successfully used in the design of several fuel efficient space missions. In this paper we give a rigorous definition of the weak st...
