Mosaicking Cluttered Ground Planes Based on Stereo Vision [PDF]

, 2007
Recent stereo cameras provide reliable 3D reconstructions. These are useful for selecting ground-plane points, register them and building mosaics of cluttered ground planes. In this paper we propose a 2D Iterated Closest Point (ICP) registration method, based on the distance transform, combined with a fine-tuning-registration step using directly the ...

UC Food Waste: A Multimodal Robotic Perception Dataset for Robust Contaminant Detection in Complex Biowaste Scenes

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A balanced multimodal food‐waste dataset and a novel Split Spatial‐Spectral Attention fusion framework are presented for robotic contaminant detection. Separate processing of RGB, thermal, and multispectral inputs preserves subtle material signatures before feature integration, reducing modality interference and improving classification and ...

Robotic Assistants in the Operating Room: A Systematic Review of Vision‐Based Systems for Nonoperative Tasks

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review brings together 20 publications describing 11 robotic system families developed for instrument handling, sterile‐package opening, supply delivery, and operating room logistics. Perception is becoming more capable through deep learning and language‐guided control, but autonomy remains limited, evidence is largely laboratory‐based, and no ...

A Reconfigurable Memristive Spiking Neuron Enabling Advanced Neuromorphic Computing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pek Jun Tiw and co‐workers develop a reconfigurable memristive neuron that can exhibit four spiking behaviors with freely tunable spike train parameters. The neuron supports multiplexed spike encoding of multiple pieces of information. It also supports advanced neural network strategies, such as neural heterogeneity and dynamic mode switching ...

Ground Clutter and Noise Mitigation Based on Range–Doppler Spectral Processing for Polarimetric Weather Radar

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Spectral polarization filtering in the range–Doppler domain plays an important role in weather radar clutter mitigation. However, when ground clutter and precipitation overlap, these methods tend to filter out clutter-contaminated precipitation ...

Habitat‐Specific Design Strategies for Untethered Soft Robots

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Habitat shapes the design of untethered soft robots. Across land, water, air, and living tissues, environmental constraints govern viable combinations of compliant structures, actuation mechanisms, and energy delivery. This review connects these constraints with robotic performance and identifies design principles for advancing adaptable, durable, and ...

Terahertz Channel Modeling, Estimation and Localization in RIS‐Assisted Systems

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces have become a recent intensive research focus. Based on practical applications, channel strategies for RIS‐assisted terahertz wireless communication systems are categorized into three different types: channel modeling, channel estimation, and channel localization.

Low‐Power Control Of Resistance Switching Transitions in First‐Order Memristors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Joule losses are a serious concern in modern integrated circuit design. In this regard, minimizing the energy necessary for programming memristors should be handled with care. This manuscript presents an optimal control framework, allowing to derive energy‐efficient programming voltage protocols for resistance switching devices. Following this approach,

Space-Time Adaptive Processing Clutter Suppression Algorithm Based on Spatiotemporal Stationarity of Ionospheric Clutter in HFSWR

International Journal of Antennas and Propagation
In high-frequency surface wave radar (HFSWR) systems, ionospheric clutter is a common phenomenon that often causes targets to be submerged. Space-time adaptive processing (STAP) is a classical adaptive filtering algorithm.
