We address the problem of the stitching task in endoscopic surgery using a circular needle under robotic assistance. Our main focus is to present an algorithm for suturing using gu...
– This paper presents two actuation compensation methods for a snake-like robot implementing multi flexible backbones and actuation redundancy. This snake-like robot is designed ...
We present learning and inference algorithms for a versatile class of partially observed vector autoregressive (VAR) models for multivariate time-series data. VAR models can captu...
