Minimum-Energy Filtering for Attitude Estimation

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2013
In this work, we study minimum-energy filtering for attitude kinematics with vectorial measurements using Mortensen's approach. The exact form of a minimum-energy attitude observer is derived and is shown to depend on the Hessian of the value function of an associated optimal control problem.

Country effects in ISSP-1993 environmental data: Comparison of SEM approaches [PDF]

open access: yes
Structural equation models (SEM) are commonly used to analyze the relationship between variables some of which may be latent, such as individual ``attitude'' to and ``behavior'' concerning specific issues.

Aircraft attitude estimation based on central difference Kalman filter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
When the extended Kalman filter (EKF) is applied in the aircraft attitude estimation, two defects exist: one is computational complexity; the other is large linearization error.

A State‐Adaptive Koopman Control Framework for Real‐Time Deformable Tool Manipulation in Robotic Environmental Swabbing

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents a state‐adaptive Koopman linear quadratic regulator framework for real‐time manipulation of a deformable swab tool in robotic environmental sampling. By combining Koopman linearization, tactile sensing, and centroid‐based force regulation, the system maintains stable contact forces and high coverage across flat and inclined surfaces.

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,
