Tracking the soccer ball using multiple fixed cameras [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper demonstrates innovative techniques for estimating the trajectory of a soccer ball from multiple fixed cameras. Since the ball is nearly always moving and frequently occluded, its size and shape appearance varies over time and between cameras ...

Averaged Heavy-Ball Method

open access: yes, 2021
Heavy-Ball method (HB) is known for its simplicity in implementation and practical efficiency. However, as with other momentum methods, it has non-monotone behavior, and for optimal parameters, the method suffers from the so-called peak effect. To address this issue, in this paper, we consider an averaged version of Heavy-Ball method (AHB).

The Crack Propagation Trend Analysis in Ceramic Rolling Element Bearing considering Initial Crack Angle and Contact Load Effect

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2021
Silicon nitride ceramic bearings are widely used for their excellent performance. However, due to their special manufacturing method, cracks will occur on ceramic ball surface, and this initial surface crack will propagate under the action of cyclic ...

Switching Between Continuum and Discrete States in a Continuum Robot With Dislocatable Joints

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
Rigid linkages allow robots to lift heavy loads but prevent them from gently stretching and bending their bodies. Continuum robots without rigid linkages have a wide range of motion, safety, shape adaptability, and compliance.

Distributed Heavy-Ball: A Generalization and Acceleration of First-Order Methods With Gradient Tracking [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2020
We study distributed optimization to minimize a global objective that is a sum of smooth and strongly-convex local cost functions. Recently, several algorithms over undirected and directed graphs have been proposed that use a gradient tracking method to achieve linear convergence to the global minimizer.
