Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Differentiating bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) from detrusor underactivity (DU) remains a major unmet need in the management of lower urinary tract symptoms in men. Although pressure–flow urodynamics provide a definitive physiological classification, their invasiveness limits their widespread use.

Monocular Camera and IMU Integration for Indoor Position Estimation
, 2014 This paper presents a monocular camera (MC) and inertial measurement unit (IMU) integrated approach for indoor position estimation. Unlike the traditional estimation methods, we fix the monocular camera downward to the floor and collect successive frames

Observer Design for Vector Nonlinear Systems With Applications to Autonomous Vehicles and Robots
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper focuses on observer design for nonlinear systems involving functions of vector arguments. The output equations and the process dynamics are both composed of nonlinear functions of nonseparable multivariable states. The partial derivatives of the nonlinear functions are assumed to be bounded.

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly

FLSea: Underwater Visual–Inertial and Stereovision Forward‐Looking Data Sets
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Visibility underwater is challenging and degrades as the distance between the subject and the camera increases. That is why forward‐looking underwater computer vision tasks are difficult. We have collected underwater forward‐looking stereovision and visual–inertial image sets using two underwater imaging platforms, a stereo camera rig, and an ...
