In this paper we discuss two image-based 3D modeling methods based on a multi-resolution evolution of a volumetric function's levelset. In the former the role of the levelset...
This paper presents a needle-tissue interaction model that is a 3D extension of a prior work based on the finite element method. The model is also adapted to accommodate arbitrary ...

In the previous reports, we presented a miniature inpipe robot called MRINSPECT (Multifunctional Robotic crawler for INpipe inSPECTion) IV which has been developed for the inspect...
We present a view-based method for steering a robot in a network of positions; this includes navigation along a prerecorded path, but also allows for arbitrary movement of the robo...
