Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents a multitask strategy for plastic cleanup with autonomous surface vehicles, combining exploration and cleaning phases. A two‐headed Deep Q‐Network shared by all agents is traineded via multiobjective reinforcement learning, producing a Pareto front of trade‐offs.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This review explores how shape‐changing structures—origami, bistable, and laminate structures—enable multifunctionality in soft robotics and metamaterials. Starting from structural design, it examines core principles, real‐world applications, and ongoing challenges.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Insect‐scale crawling robots can traverse confined environments; nevertheless, their functionalities are predominantly restricted to sensing because of challenges in integrating actuated degrees of freedom. Herein, a miniature rotary electrostatic clutch is presented by incorporating cutting patterns in the clutch layer.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents a new sampling‐based model predictive control minimizing reverse Kullback‐Leibler divergence to quickly find a local optimum. In addition, a modified Nesterov's acceleration method is introduced for faster convergence. The method is effective for real‐time simulations and real‐world operability improvement on a force‐driven mobile ...

Automated thematic mapping and change detection of ERTS-A images [PDF]
The author has identified the following significant results. For the recognition of terrain types, spatial signatures are developed from the diffraction patterns of small areas of ERTS-1 images. This knowledge is exploited for the measurements of a small

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Legged robots have advanced in environmental interaction through contact, but most works rely on fixed contact sequences. This work presents a new method based on an indirect optimization method for legged robots to automatically generate contact sequences for complex movements.

Planning and Control Framework for a Quadruped Robot With Changeable Configuration
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Multiconfiguration quadruped robots enhance adaptability by switching between mammal‐like and reptile‐like morphologies. This study presents a nonlinear constraint‐based motion planner integrated with a hierarchical whole‐body controller, enabling robust configuration switching and locomotion on complex terrains. Experiments on slopes, irregular bricks,
