— We propose a novel solution to the problem of inverse kinematics for redundant robotic manipulators for the purposes of goal selection for path planning. We unify the calculati...
We present a novel approach to legged locomotion over rough terrain that is thoroughly rooted in optimization. This approach relies on a hierarchy of fast, anytime algorithms to p...

Abstract. A methodology for safety verification using barrier certificates has been proposed recently. Conditions that must be satisfied by a barrier certificate can be formula...
The radiation (reactive or Robin) boundary condition for the diffusion equation is widely used in chemical and biological applications to express reactive boundaries. The underlyin...
