A State‐Adaptive Koopman Control Framework for Real‐Time Deformable Tool Manipulation in Robotic Environmental Swabbing

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents a state‐adaptive Koopman linear quadratic regulator framework for real‐time manipulation of a deformable swab tool in robotic environmental sampling. By combining Koopman linearization, tactile sensing, and centroid‐based force regulation, the system maintains stable contact forces and high coverage across flat and inclined surfaces.

A Self‐Healing Permanent Magnet Putty for Soft Robot Skins With Force Sensing and Functional Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Permanent magnet putty (PMP) integrates high‐coercivity NdFeB particles with a dynamic polyborosiloxane–Ecoflex matrix, achieving rapid self‐healing (90% mechanical recovery in 10 s) and magnetic recovery within 20 min. With twice the sensitivity of commercial putties, PMP enables precise 5–30 N force detection and discrimination between pressing and ...

Multimodal Engagement Assessment in Children During Invented Story Paradigm With a Social Robot

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A multimodal framework is proposed to assess children's engagement during storytelling interactions with a social robot. Gaze, physiological, and behavioral data are combined and validated against observer ratings. An automated gaze‐labeling strategy is introduced, and supervised classifiers achieve high accuracy. The study supports scalable engagement

A Soft Robotic Fish With a Dielectric Elastomer Actuator Body and Negative Stiffness Spine

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work introduces a bio‐mimetic soft robotic fish driven by fiber‐reinforced dielectric elastomer actuators integrated as its body. By prestretching this active skin against a flexible spine, a negative stiffness system is created, enabling large‐amplitude bending.

Predictive no-reference assessment of video quality [PDF]

open access: yesSignal Processing: Image Communication, 2017
Among the various means to evaluate the quality of video streams, lightweight No-Reference (NR) methods have low computation and may be executed on thin clients. Thus, these methods would be perfect candidates in cases of real-time quality assessment, automated quality control and in adaptive mobile streaming. Yet, existing real-time, NR approaches are

No-reference screen content video quality assessment

Displays, 2021
Abstract How to effectively and accurately measure the degradation of media content is an important research topic in the field of image or video processing. Application scenarios such as online meetings, distance learning, and live game streaming make screen content video become a hot spot in Video Quality Assessment (VQA) research.

No-reference video quality assessment in the compressed domain

IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, 2012
In this paper, a novel no-reference video quality assessment algorithm in the compressed domain is introduced. The proposed algorithm takes into account of three key factors; the quantization parameter, the motion, and the bit allocation factor which are calculated using the information extracted from the compressed bitstream.

COME for No-Reference Video Quality Assessment

2018 IEEE Conference on Multimedia Information Processing and Retrieval (MIPR), 2018
Nowadays, the issue of objective Video Quality Assessment (VQA) has been extensively studied. In this paper, we present an effective general-purpose VQA method named COnvolutional neural network and Multi-regression based Evaluation (COME). It requires no referred lossless video and is universal for non-specific types of distortion.

Semantic Information Oriented No-Reference Video Quality Assessment

IEEE Signal Processing Letters, 2021
In this letter, a method called Semantic Information Oriented No-Reference (SIONR) video quality assessment model is developed, which can effectively represent quality degradation of video by taking the variations of semantic information into consideration.
