Swarm Body: Embodied Swarm Robots
Proceedings of the CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsThe human brain's plasticity allows for the integration of artificial body parts into the human body. Leveraging this, embodied systems realize intuitive interactions with the environment. We introduce a novel concept: embodied swarm robots. Swarm robots constitute a collective of robots working in harmony to achieve a common objective, in our case ...

Probabilistic and Distributed Control of a Large-Scale Swarm of Autonomous Agents [PDF]
, 2016 We present a novel method for guiding a large-scale swarm of autonomous agents into a desired formation shape in a distributed and scalable manner. Our Probabilistic Swarm Guidance using Inhomogeneous Markov Chains (PSG-IMC) algorithm adopts an Eulerian ...

Sandsbots: Robots That Sync and Swarm [PDF]
IEEE Access, 2020 This article presents a multi-robot system that forms emergent space-time patterns. Inspired by the theory of swarmalators, in which synchronization and swarming of agents are mutually coupled, we propose a robot-suitable model for coordination in time and space.

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Swarm Engineering Through Quantitative Measurement of Swarm Robotic Principles in a 10,000 Robot Swarm [PDF]
Proceedings of the Twenty-Eighth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2019 When designing swarm-robotic systems, system- atic comparison of algorithms from different do- mains is necessary to determine which is capa- ble of scaling up to handle the target problem size and target operating conditions. We propose a set of quantitative metrics for scalability, flexibility, and emergence which are capable of addressing these ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Modular automatic design of collective behaviors for robots endowed with local communication capabilities [PDF]
PeerJ Computer Science, 2020 We investigate the automatic design of communication in swarm robotics through two studies. We first introduce Gianduja an automatic design method that generates collective behaviors for robot swarms in which individuals can locally exchange a message ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Single circulating tumor cells (sCTCs) from high‐grade serous ovarian cancer patients were enriched, imaged, and genomically profiled using WGA and NGS at different time points during treatment. sCTCs revealed enrichment of alterations in Chromosomes 2, 7, and 12 as well as persistent or emerging oncogenic CNAs, supporting sCTC identity.
