— In this paper, we present a scalable, decentralized task allocation algorithm for a group of unknown number of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), which are equipped with GPS rece...
Abstract— In this paper, we address navigation and coordination methods that allow swarms of robots to converge and spread along complex 2D shapes in environments containing unkn...
— Sensor-based control is an emerging challenge in UAV applications. It is essential in a sensing task to account for sensor measurement errors when computing a target position e...
— We present a framework for the programming of manipulation behavior by means of an intrinsic reward function that encourages the building of deep control knowledge. We show how...
— Technologies to develop scaffolds with controlled pore layout and porosity have great significance in tissue engineering. As one method of scaffold fabrication, porogen leachin...
— We introduce a new method for stereo visual SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) that works in unstructured, outdoor environments. Unlike other gridbased SLAM algorithm...

— Compliance in robot mounted force/torque sensors is useful for soft mating of parts. However it generates nearly undamped oscillations when moving the end-effector in free spac...
Abstract— This paper presents a novel biologicallyinspired hierarchical approach to organizing and controlling modular robots. The purpose of our approach is to decompose the com...
— We present a new algorithm for solving the global localization problem called Frozen-Time Smoother (FTS). Time is ‘frozen’, in the sense that the belief always refers to th...
