— We present AmphiBot I, an amphibious snake robot capable of crawling and swimming. Experiments have been carried out to characterize how the speed of locomotion depends on the ...
Abstract. In this paper we apply a formal ontological framework in order to deconstruct two prominent approaches to navigation from cognitive robotics, the Spatial Semantic Hierarc...
Force information from needle insertions was measured and modeled for use in robot-assisted percutaneous therapies. Data was collected on bovine livers using the Johns Hopkins Uni...
If robots learn new actions through human-robot interaction, it is important that the robots can utilize rewards as well as instructions to reduce humans' efforts. Additionall...
In this paper we discuss the application of circuit-based logical reasoning to simplify optimization problems expressed as integer linear programs (ILP) over circuit states. We de...
