For flexible interactions between a robot and humans, we address the issue of automatic recognition of human emotions during the interaction such as embarrassment, pleasure, and af...
—Starting from human ‘sense of touch’, this work reviews the state of tactile sensing in robotics. Following a brief discussion on the physiology, coding, tactile data transf...

— A new Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) with spline kernel function (EDA_S) is proposed to optimize biped gait for a nine-link humanoid robot. Gait synthesis of the bi...
— A new biped gait generation and optimization method is proposed in the frame of Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) with Q-learning method. By formulating the biped ga...
— This paper proposes a simple passivity-based disturbance rejection scheme for force-controllable biped humanoids. The disturbance rejection by force control is useful not only ...
