Robotic locomotion through active and passive morphological adaptation in extreme outdoor environments

Sci. Robotics
Robotic locomotion has shown substantial advancements, yet robots still lack the versatility and agility shown by animals navigating complex terrains. This limits their applicability in complex environments where they could be highly beneficial.

Functional adaptation of spiriferide brachiopod morphology

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2010
AbstractIt has been suggested that spiriferide morphologies have evolved to adapt to a variety of environmental conditions. Through a computational fluid dynamics approach, we examined how the spiriferide original form was optimized for a lotic condition, specifically addressing the functionalization of the Devonian spiriferide brachiopod Paraspirifer ...

Adaptive mathematical morphology for range imagery

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 1993
The application of adaptive (i.e., data-dependent) mathematical morphology techniques to range imagery, i.e., the use of structuring elements (SEs) that automatically adjust to the gray-scale values in a range image in order to deal with features of known physical sizes, is discussed.

Morphological Adaptations of Intestinal Helminths

The Journal of Parasitology, 1991
Nematodes, trematodes, cestodes, and acanthocephalans each have become adapted in different ways to the microenvironment of the vertebrate intestine. Life in this specialized habitat affords parasites a reliable source of nutrients, a relatively homeostatic environment, and protection from predators but, in exchange for these advantages, presents the ...

Spatially and Intensity Adaptive Morphology

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Signal Processing, 2012
In this paper, spatially and intensity adaptive morphology is introduced and studied in the context of the General Adaptive Neighborhood Image Processing (GANIP) approach. The combination of GAN (General Adaptive Neighborhood)-based filtering and semi-flat morphology is particularly efficient in the sense that the filtering is adaptive to the image ...

Locally adaptable mathematical morphology

IEEE International Conference on Image Processing 2005, 2005
We investigate how common binary mathematical morphology operators can be adapted so that the size of the structuring element (SE) can vary across the image. We show that when the SE are balls of a metric, locally adaptable erosion and dilation can be efficiently implemented as a variant of distance transformation algorithms.

Adaptive Weighted Morphological Filters

Proceedings of the 2020 12th International Conference on Machine Learning and Computing, 2020
According to the structural element characteristics of morphological filter, combined with the combination of mathematical morphology operation and adaptive weighted structure element value selection algorithm, a method which can effectively remove the salt and pepper and speckle noise in the image and keep the details of the image is established ...

Morphological adaptation of a palatable plant to long-term grazing can shift interactions with an unpalatable plant from facilitative to competitive

Plant Ecology, 2012
Unpalatable plants can protect palatable neighbor plants from grazing pressure, but morphological evolution of a palatable species might change its interactions with unpalatable plants.

Energy Harvesting for Robots with Adaptive Morphology

Soft Robotics, 2023
Robots primarily made of soft and elastic materials have potential applications such as traveling in confined spaces due to their adaptive morphology. However, their energy efficiency is still subject to improvement. Although a possible approach to increase efficiency is by harvesting the energy used during their behavioral motion, it is not trivial to

Novel Binary Adaptive Morphological Operators

2018 12th IEEE International Conference on Anti-counterfeiting, Security, and Identification (ASID), 2018
In this paper, novel binary adaptive neighborhood morphological operators are proposed to solve the problem that the fixed structure elements cannot adapt to the whole image when processing images in classical mathematical morphology. The key of adaptive morphology is to select suitable structure elements according to the different attributes of an ...
