RGB-D people tracking by detection for a mobile robot [PDF]

, 2011
In this work, we propose a fast and robust multi-people long-term tracking algorithm for mobile platforms equipped with RGB-D sensors. The approach we followed is based on the clustering of the scene by using 3D information in conjunction with a reliable

Continual Learning for Multimodal Data Fusion of a Soft Gripper

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Models trained on a single data modality often struggle to generalize when exposed to a different modality. This work introduces a continual learning algorithm capable of incrementally learning different data modalities by leveraging both class‐incremental and domain‐incremental learning scenarios in an artificial environment where labeled data is ...

Three-Dimensional Reconstruction From a Single Satellite Image via Iterative RGB-D Completion

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Reconstructing three-dimensional (3-D) scenes from a single satellite image remains challenging because reliable metric depth is unavailable and many regions are occluded, which limits the geometric observability and appearance evidence required for ...

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

Advanced 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.

ChicGrasp: Imitation‐Learning‐Based Customized Dual‐Jaw Gripper Control for Manipulation of Delicate, Irregular Bio‐Products

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Automated poultry processing lines still rely on humans to lift slippery, easily bruised carcasses onto a shackle conveyor. Deformability, anatomical variance, and hygiene rules make conventional suction and scripted motions unreliable. We present ChicGrasp, an end‐to‐end hardware‐software co‐designed imitation learning framework, to offer a ...
