Goals are an important concept in intelligent agent systems, and can take a variety of forms. One such form is maintenance goals, which, unlike achievement goals, define states th...
— We present a cascaded control architecture for a Yamaha RMAX robotic helicopter. The controller is composed of an inner-loop that stabilizes the unstable poles of the helicopte...

— This paper presents a global localization technique for a robot with only linear and angular odometers. The robot, whose configuration is composed of its position and orientat...
We present a new speedup technique for route planning that exploits the hierarchy inherent in real world road networks. Our algorithm preprocesses the eight digit number of nodes n...
In this paper, the stability of objects in graspless manipulation (or nonprehensile manipulation) is investigated. In contrast with the stability of grasps, it is crucial for the ...
