Toward Fully Soft and Multifunctional Shape Sensing via Optical Waveguide Arrays
This work develops a sheet made with arrays of soft optical fibers that can reconstruct its 3D surface shape. Synergy of the waveguides’ responses to bending and pressing force allows shape reconstruction with resilience to damage. Applied onto surfaces of robotic or living systems, our design can be implemented in virtual reality, teleoperation ...

Beam search heuristics for quadratic earliness and tardiness scheduling [PDF]
In this paper, we present beam search heuristics for the single machine scheduling problem with quadratic earliness and tardiness costs, and no machine idle time. These heuristics include classic beam search procedures, as well as filtered and recovering

On Linear Quadratic Approximations [PDF]
We prove the generality of the methodology proposed in Benigno and Woodford (2006). We show that, even in the presence of a distorted steady state, it is always possible and relatively simple to obtain a purely quadratic approximation to the welfare ...
