Texture Mixer: A Network for Controllable Synthesis and Interpolation of Texture

, 2019
This paper addresses the problem of interpolating visual textures. We formulate this problem by requiring (1) by-example controllability and (2) realistic and smooth interpolation among an arbitrary number of texture samples.

Geometry Systems for Lattice-Based Reconfigurable Space Structures [PDF]

We describe analytical methods for the design of the discrete elements of ultralight lattice structures. This modular, building block strategy allows for relatively simple element manufacturing, as well as relatively simple robotic assembly of low mass ...

Process improvement and automation in construction: Opposing or complementing approaches? [PDF]

It is widely recognized that there must be wide-ranging changes in construction before automation can be implemented in practice. On the other hand, the innovation rate of construction is rather low, and thus it is unclear, how the steps necessary for ...

Sampling-based optimal kinodynamic planning with motion primitives

, 2018
This paper proposes a novel sampling-based motion planner, which integrates in RRT* (Rapidly exploring Random Tree star) a database of pre-computed motion primitives to alleviate its computational load and allow for motion planning in a dynamic or ...
