— We present an optimization-based approach to grasping and path planning for mobile manipulators. We focus on pick-and-place operations, where a given object must be moved from ...
In this paper we present a novel method for the 3D centerline extraction of elongated objects such as vessels. This method unites the basic ideas in distance transformbased, thinn...

In this paper we present the geometrical construction of an approximate generalized Voronoi diagram for generalized polygons and circular objects based on their minimum geometrica...
This paper investigates kinetic behavior of a planetary rover with attention to tire-soil traction mechanics and articulated body dynamics, and thereby study the control when the ...
We propose a novel global pose estimation method to detect body parts of articulated objects in images based on non-tree graph models. There are two kinds of edges defined in the ...
