Auto‐Routing Fluidic Printed Circuit Boards

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work introduces (STREAM) software tool for routing efficiently advanced macrofluidics, an open‐source software tool for automating the design of 3D‐printable fluidic circuit boards. STREAM streamlines tube routing and layout, enabling the rapid fabrication of fluidic networks for soft robotics, lab‐on‐a‐chip devices, microfluidics, and biohybrid ...

Informal fallacies as cognitive heuristics in public health reasoning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The public must make assessments of a range of health-related issues. However, these assessments require scientific knowledge which is often lacking or ineffectively utilized by the public.

Hard‐Magnetic Soft Millirobots in Underactuated Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of hard‐magnetic soft millirobots in underactuated systems. It examines key advances in structural design, physics‐informed modeling, and control strategies, while highlighting the interplay among these domains.

Beam search heuristics for quadratic earliness and tardiness scheduling [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we present beam search heuristics for the single machine scheduling problem with quadratic earliness and tardiness costs, and no machine idle time. These heuristics include classic beam search procedures, as well as filtered and recovering

Evaluation of Subject-Specific Heuristics for Initial Learning Environments: A Pilot Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Heuristic evaluation is a “discount” technique for finding usability problems in well-established domains. This paper presents thirteen suggested heuristics for initial learning environments (ILEs).

Grounding Large Language Models for Robot Task Planning Using Closed‐Loop State Feedback

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
BrainBody‐Large Language Model (LLM) introduces a hierarchical, feedback‐driven planning framework where two LLMs coordinate high‐level reasoning and low‐level control for robotic tasks. By grounding decisions in real‐time state feedback, it reduces hallucinations and improves task reliability.

Worst case analysis for a general class of on-line lot-sizing heuristics. [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we analyze the worst case performance of heuristics for the classical economic lot-sizing problem with time-invariant cost parameters. We consider a general class of on-line heuristics that is often applied in a rolling horizon environment.

Identifying Physical Interactions in Contact‐Based Robot Manipulation for Learning from Demonstration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robots can learn manipulation tasks from human demonstrations. This work proposes a versatile method to identify the physical interactions that occur in a demonstration, such as sequences of different contacts and interactions with mechanical constraints.

A Study of Evolutionary Algorithm Selection Hyper-Heuristics for the One-Dimensional Bin-Packing Problem

open access: yesSouth African Computer Journal, 2012
Hyper-heuristics are aimed at providing a generalized solution to optimization problems rather than producing the best result for one or more problem instances.
