Active Sound Localization in a Symmetric Environment
International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2013 Localization for humanoid robots becomes difficult when events that disrupt robot positioning information occur. This holds especially true in symmetric environments because landmark data may not be sufficient to determine orientation.

Neural Grasp Distance Fields for Robot Manipulation [PDF]
IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2022 We formulate grasp learning as a neural field and present Neural Grasp Distance Fields (NGDF). Here, the input is a 6D pose of a robot end effector and output is a distance to a continuous manifold of valid grasps for an object.

The magic grasp: Motor expertise in deception [PDF]
, 2011 This is an open access article, with the official published version at the link below.Background: Most of us are poor at faking actions. Kinematic studies have shown that when pretending to pick up imagined objects (pantomimed actions), we move and ...

Testing general relativity using higher-order modes of gravitational waves from binary black holes [PDF]
, 2022 Recently, strong evidence was found for the presence of higher-order modes in the gravitational wave signals GW190412 and GW190814, which originated from compact binary coalescences with significantly asymmetric component masses.

Forced segregation in binary granular mixtures [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 Mixing granular particles of di erent sizes is a common way of increasing the packing fraction. Recently, a model predicting the packing fraction, taking into account the inhomogeneity of the mixed small and large particles, has been proposed by S ...

Cell, 2008 Chromosome segregation in the bacterium Caulobacter crescentus involves propulsion of the replication origin and its capture at one pole of the cell. Bowman et al. (2008) and Ebersbach et al. (2008) now report the discovery of a protein called PopZ that mediates this chromosome capture.

Applied Sciences, 2023 Tendon transfer surgery is often used to restore hand grasp function following high median-ulnar nerve palsy. This surgery typically reroutes and sutures the tendon of the extensor carpi radialis longus (ECRL) muscle to all four flexor digitorum ...
