—We formulate and address the problem of planning a pushing manipulation by a mobile robot which tries to rearrange several movable objects in its work space. We present an algor...
— We consider the problem of optimal control in continuous and partially observable environments when the parameters of the model are not known exactly. Partially Observable Mark...
Visual sensors provide exclusively uncertain and partial knowledge of a scene. In this article, we present a suitable scene knowledge representation that makes integration and fusi...
— Accurate needle insertion in 3D environment is always a grand challenge. When multiple targets are located in the tissue, a procedure of inserting multiple needles from a singl...
