Abstract— Mobile robots rely on the ability to sense the geometry of their local environment in order to avoid obstacles or to explore the surroundings. For this task, dedicated ...

— This paper proposes an optimal gait generation framework using virtual constraint and learning optimal control. In this method, firstly, we add a constraint by a virtual poten...
— Reactive systems are those that maintain an ongoing interaction with their environment at a speed dictated by the latter. Examples of such systems include web servers, network ...
We introduce a non-linear shape prior for the deformable model framework that we learn from a set of shape samples using recent manifold learning techniques. We model a category o...
In this paper we make use of the idea that a robot can autonomously discover objects and learn their appearances by poking and prodding at interesting parts of a scene. In order t...
