A computational study of synaptic mechanisms of partial memory transfer in cerebellar vestibulo-ocular-reflex learning
There is a debate regarding whether motor memory is stored in the cerebellar cortex, or the cerebellar nuclei, or both. Memory may be acquired in the cortex and then be transferred...

Soft Finger Model with Adaptive Contact Geometry for Grasping and Manipulation Tasks
This paper presents a method for building analytical contact models for soft fingers. Friction constraints are derived based on general expressions for non-planar contacts of ela...

A novel potential-based path planning of 3-D articulated robots with moving bases
This paper proposes a novel path planning algorithm of 3-D articulated robots with moving bases based on a generalized potential field model. The approach computes, similar to th...

Central axis approach for computing n-finger force-closure grasps
— In this paper, we propose a new approach for computing force-closure grasps of two-dimensional and threedimensional objects. Assuming n hard-finger contact with Coulomb fricti...
