From subculture to scene and tribe: Post-Birmingham approaches to the relationship between youth, music and style [PDF]
Sociologija, 2007 The paper discusses the so-called "post-Birmingham approaches" to analyzing the relationship between youth, music and style. Three especially pertinent theoretical approaches are presented: Sarah Thornton’s research based on the concept of "subcultural ...

Learning Highly Dynamic Skills Transition for Quadruped Jumping Through Constrained Space
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A quadruped robot masters dynamic jumps through constrained spaces with animal‐inspired moves and intelligent vision control. This hierarchical learning approach combines imitation of biological agility with real‐time trajectory planning. Although legged animals are capable of performing explosive motions while traversing confined spaces, replicating ...

Beats to Relax/Study To: Contradiction and Paradox in Lofi Hip Hop [PDF]
IASPM Journal, 2019 Lofi hip hop is a musical genre which is distributed and mediated entirely via the internet, and which, to our knowledge, is currently unexamined academically. This article serves as an introductory investigation into the genre, which we hope may inspire

Grounding Large Language Models for Robot Task Planning Using Closed‐Loop State Feedback
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.BrainBody‐Large Language Model (LLM) introduces a hierarchical, feedback‐driven planning framework where two LLMs coordinate high‐level reasoning and low‐level control for robotic tasks. By grounding decisions in real‐time state feedback, it reduces hallucinations and improves task reliability.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Visual teach‐and‐repeat (VTR) navigation allows robots to learn and follow routes without building a full metric map. We show that navigation accuracy for VTR can be improved by integrating a topological map with error‐drift correction based on stereo vision.

Multidirectional Motion Strategy of Miniature Water Surface Robot Actuated by Single Exciter
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A novel multidirectional motion strategy on the water surface based on a single exciter is proposed, and a single‐exciter single‐plate module is developed for actuation. The driving forces generation mechanism of the module is revealed from the perspective of the asymmetric surface wave field.

Future Hospital Journal, 2015 Doctors have a critical role in ensuring good teamworking which improves patient outcomes. UK hospitals with more doctors in their boards have lower morbidity and better patient satisfaction. In the USA, hospitals with doctors as the CEO have better performance, but in the UK less than 5% of hospitals have doctors as the CEO. There is an urgent need to

Advanced 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 Human–Robot Interaction Using Human Pose Estimation and Local Large Language Models
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A multimodal human–robot interaction framework integrates human pose estimation (HPE) and a large language model (LLM) for gesture‐ and voice‐based robot control. Speech‐to‐text (STT) enables voice command interpretation, while a safety‐aware arbitration mechanism prioritizes gesture input for rapid intervention.

Robust Cross-Modal Matching between LiDAR Point Clouds and Multi-Camera Images in Tunnel Environments via Surface Parameterization [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information SciencesTunnel lining defect detection increasingly depends on LiDAR and multi-camera collaboration for high-precision 3D modeling. However, sparse textures, repetitive structures, and insufficient lighting limit camera overlap, compromising target-free cross ...
