Convexity of sets in metric Abelian groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In the present paper, we introduce a new concept of convexity which is generated by a family of endomorphisms of an Abelian group. In Abelian groups, equipped with a translation invariant metric, we define the boundedness, the norm, the modulus of ...

Learning Highly Dynamic Skills Transition for Quadruped Jumping Through Constrained Space

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A quadruped robot masters dynamic jumps through constrained spaces with animal‐inspired moves and intelligent vision control. This hierarchical learning approach combines imitation of biological agility with real‐time trajectory planning. Although legged animals are capable of performing explosive motions while traversing confined spaces, replicating ...

Dispersion measures as immunization risk measures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The quadratic and linear cash flow dispersion measures M2 and Ñ are two immunization risk measures designed to build immunized bond portfolios. This paper generalizes these two measures by showing that any dispersion measure is an immunization risk ...

Soft Robotic Snake with Tunable Undulatory Gait for Efficient Underwater Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study designs an underwater soft snake robot using 3D‐printed soft actuators, controlled by specific signals to generate sinusoidal undulation. Results show a positive correlation between speed and swing amplitude, with optimal performance at 2/3π phase offset, PLA tail, 1.2 voltage growth rate, and 6s undulation period achieving a maximum speed ...

Generalized strong vector quasi-equilibrium problems with variable ordering structure

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2019
In this paper, two kinds of generalized strong vector quasi-equilibrium problems with variable ordering structure are considered by using the concept of cosmically upper continuity rather than upper semi-continuity for cone-valued mapping. Firstly, a key

Extension of M-Convexity and L-Convexity to Polyhedral Convex Functions

open access: yes, 2000
The concepts of M-convex and L-convex functions were proposed by Murota in 1996 as two mutually conjugate classes of discrete functions over integer lattice points.

Gait Analysis of Pak Biawak: A Necrobot Lizard Built using the Skeleton of an Asian Water Monitor (Varanus Salvator)

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

A Unified Framework for Constructing Two-Branched Fuzzy Implications and Copulas via Monotone and Convex Function Composition

open access: yesMathematics
This paper presents a unified framework for constructing two-branched fuzzy implications and families of copulas based on the same composition principles involving monotone and convex functions.

Convexity in directed graphs

open access: yes, 1971
In this paper the concept of convexity in directed graphs is described. It is shown that the set of convex subgraphs of a directed graph G partially ordered by inclusion forms a complete, semimodular, A-regular lattice, denoted ℒG.
