Based on the thermodynamic concept of a reservoir, we investigate a computational model for interaction with unresolved degrees of freedom (a thermal bath). We assume that a finite...
A Messy Genetic Algorithm is customized toflnd'optimal many-to-many matches for 2D line segment models. The Messy GA is a variant upon the Standard Genetic Algorithm in which...
The design and development of social robots that interact and assist people in daily life requires moving into unconstrained daily-life environments. This presents unexplored meth...

: A solution to the singularity problem is presented from the approach of the operational space formulation which involves both motion and force control. A brief summary of the Ope...
— We present a new approach to path planning for flexible wires. We introduce a method for computing stable configurations of a wire subject to manipulation constraints. These ...
