Vision‐Assisted Avocado Harvesting with Aerial Bimanual Manipulation
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This work outlines the design and implementation of a bimanual aerial robot that employs visual perception and learning to detect, reach, and harvest avocados. A new gripper and fixer arm assembly is used to harvest avocados, while visual perception enables the detection of avocados and estimation of their position and orientation for determining ...

Alcuni meccanismi cognitivi tra psicologia, arte e psicoanalisi
Rivista di Estetica, 2011 Several mechanisms of perceptual and cognitive relevance which are often activated during artistic fruition are illustrated. These are phenomena of ambiguity, incongruity and masking, largely clarified in their dynamics by perception and thinking ...

JND-Based Perceptual Video Coding for 4:4:4 Screen Content Data in HEVC [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 The JCT-VC standardized Screen Content Coding (SCC) extension in the HEVC HM RExt + SCM reference codec offers an impressive coding efficiency performance when compared with HM RExt alone; however, it is not significantly perceptually optimized.

In‐Hand Singulation, Scooping, and Cable Untangling with a 5‐Dof Tactile‐Reactive Gripper
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This article presents a two‐fingered gripper with five degrees of freedom and a vision‐based tactile sensor for dexterous in‐hand manipulation. It performs complex tasks such as object singulation within granular media, scooping and precise card insertion, and cable untangling.

Effect of flanking sounds on the auditory continuity illusion. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: The auditory continuity illusion or the perceptual restoration of a target sound briefly interrupted by an extraneous sound has been shown to depend on masking. However, little is known about factors other than masking.

On Psychoacoustically Weighted Cost Functions Towards Resource-Efficient Deep Neural Networks for Speech Denoising [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 We present a psychoacoustically enhanced cost function to balance network complexity and perceptual performance of deep neural networks for speech denoising. While training the network, we utilize perceptual weights added to the ordinary mean-squared error to emphasize contribution from frequency bins which are most audible while ignoring error from ...

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.Temperature and pressure sensing are critical for human‐machine interaction applications, allowing robots to identify objects and surface characteristics for safe and precise manipulation. A multilayered robotic skin integrating pressure and temperature sensors is developed to enable simultaneous real‐time detection.

The Resonant Dynamics of Speech Perception: Interword Integration and Duration-Dependent Backward Effects [PDF]
, 1999 How do listeners integrate temporally distributed phonemic information into coherent representations of syllables and words? During fluent speech perception, variations in the durations of speech sounds and silent pauses can produce different pereeived ...
