Simultaneous Inversion for Underactuated Mechanical Systems with Servo‐Constraints

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The dynamic inversion of underactuated mechanical systems can be formulated in the servo‐constraint framework using a set of differential‐algebraic equations (DAEs). In case of a high differentiation index, the inversion‐based feedforward control design poses significant challenges.

Exploring haptic interfacing with a mobile robot without visual feedback [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Search and rescue scenarios are often complicated by low or no visibility conditions. The lack of visual feedback hampers orientation and causes significant stress for human rescue workers. The Guardians project [1] pioneered a group of autonomous mobile

Why Autonomous Vehicles Are Not Ready Yet: A Multi‐Disciplinary Review of Problems, Attempted Solutions, and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 2254-2341, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Personal autonomous vehicles can sense their surrounding environment, plan their route, and drive with little or no involvement of human drivers. Despite the latest technological advancements and the hopeful announcements made by leading entrepreneurs, to date no personal vehicle is approved for road circulation in a “fully” or “semi ...

Development and Preliminary Evaluation of a Machine Vision‐Guided Smart Sprayer Prototype Toward Precision Vegetable Weeding

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1973-1987, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Sustainable weed management necessitates herbicide‐reduced, precision weed control. Recent advancements in machine vision and artificial intelligence (AI) for weed recognition and localization have created new opportunities for high‐precision weeding. Although blanket spraying systems are widely used for weed removal, machine vision‐guided, AI‐

Language machines: Toward a linguistic anthropology of large language models

open access: yesJournal of Linguistic Anthropology, Volume 36, Issue 1, May 2026.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) challenge long‐standing assumptions in linguistics and linguistic anthropology by generating human‐like language without relying on rule‐based structures. This introduction to the special issue Language Machines calls for renewed engagement with LLMs as socially embedded language technologies.

Confronting Criminal Law’s Violence: The Possibilities of Unfinished Alternatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Confronting criminal law’s violence calls for an openness to unfinished alternatives — a willingness to engage in partial, in process, incomplete reformist efforts that seek to displace conventional criminal law administration as a primary mechanism for ...

Introducing the Archive of Pittsburgh Language and Speech, a Publicly Accessible, Richly Annotated Corpus of Sociolinguistic Interviews

open access: yesLanguage and Linguistics Compass, Volume 20, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The troves of speech data that have driven an increasing orientation towards large‐scale methods in linguistics have been, for the most part, available only to closed teams of researchers and their collaborators. The Archive of Pittsburgh Language and Speech (APLS, https://apls.pitt.edu) is a new open data resource, consisting of nearly 46 h ...
