Deep Q‐Network‐Based Hierarchical Path Planning of a Biped Wall‐Climbing Robot for Window Cleaning
This article presents a biped wall‐cleaning climbing robotic system for the maintenance of multi‐isolated areas on exoskeleton‐structured windows (ESWs). A full coverage cleaning approach is proposed by integrating a deep Q‐network‐based method with the robotic system to address the complete coverage cleaning path planning problem.

Effective factors in agile transformation process from change management perspective [PDF]
After introducing agile approach in 2001, several agile methods were founded over the last decade. Agile values such as customer collaboration, embracing changes, iteration and frequent delivery, continuous integration, etc. motivate all software stakeholders to use these methods in their projects. The main issue is that for using these methods instead

Inspired by the eye movements of humans, a multi‐degree‐of‐freedom (multi‐DOF) miniature piezoelectric actuator with a square‐circular ring structure is proposed. The actuator demonstrates a well‐balanced performance in miniaturization, operational efficiency, actuation precision, and load‐driving capability.
