Unknown Slope-Oriented Research on Model Predictive Control for Quadruped Robot
Machines, 2023 There are many undulating terrains in the wild environment. In order to realize the adaptive and stable walking of quadruped robots on unknown sloped terrain, a slope-adaptability model predictive control (SAMPC) algorithm is proposed in this work.

Self-Disclosure to a Robot "In-the-Wild": Category, Human Personality and Robot Identity
2022 31st IEEE International Conference on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN), 2022 Self-disclosures can be valuable and sensitive parts of the human-robot interaction. This paper investigates how far human's tendency to self-disclose depends on the topic of interaction, individual's personality and perceived robot identity (i.e., human-, robot-or animal-like).

Visual Reconstruction and Localization-Based Robust Robotic 6-DoF Grasping in the Wild
IEEE Access, 2021 The intelligent grasping expects that the manipulator has the ability to grasp objects with high degree of freedom in a wild (unstructured) environment. Due to low perception ability in handing targets and environments, most industrial robots are limited
