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.

On calculating the slice genera of 11- and 12-crossing knots

open access: yes, 2016
This paper contains the results of efforts to determine values of the smooth and the topological slice genus of 11- and 12-crossing knots. Upper bounds for these genera were produced by using a computer to search for genus one concordances between knots.

New Species of Occasjapyx From the Interior Highlands (Insecta: Diplua: Japygidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
A new species of Japygidea, Occasjapyx carltoni is described from the Ozark Mountains of the Interior Highlands. This is the first record of the genus outside of California in North America.

Multimodal Locomotion in Insect‐Inspired Microrobots: A Review of Strategies for Aerial, Surface, Aquatic, and Interfacial Motion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

A phylogenetically isolated and endemic Geometridae discovered from montane forests in the Canary Island of Tenerife (Spain) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae, Larentiinae)

open access: yesSHILAP
The Lepidoptera fauna of Europe is among the best studied in the world, and new species are only rarely discovered that do not fit in the existing classification. We present an unknown Geometridae from the Canary Islands (Spain), which, according to the

Genus Computing for 3D digital objects: algorithm and implementation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper deals with computing topological invariants such as connected components, boundary surface genus, and homology groups. For each input data set, we have designed or implemented algorithms to calculate connected components, boundary surfaces and

Auditory–Tactile Congruence for Synthesis of Adaptive Pain Expressions in RoboPatients

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this work, we explore auditory–tactile congruence for synthesizing adaptive vocal pain expressions in robopatients. Using a robopatient platform that integrates vocal pain sounds with palpation forces, we conducted 7680 trials across 20 participants.

Generalized Property R and the Schoenflies Conjecture

open access: yes, 2006
There is a relation between the generalized Property R Conjecture and the Schoenflies Conjecture that suggests a new line of attack on the latter. The approach gives a quick proof of the genus 2 Schoenflies Conjecture and suffices to prove the genus 3 ...
