Active End-Effector Pose Selection for Tactile Object Recognition through Monte Carlo Tree Search

open access: yes, 2017
This paper considers the problem of active object recognition using touch only. The focus is on adaptively selecting a sequence of wrist poses that achieves accurate recognition by enclosure grasps. It seeks to minimize the number of touches and maximize

Constructing Ion‐Bridging Structure with Controlled Cracks in Plasticized PVC with Graphene for Highly Sensitive Strain Sensor with a Wide Strain Range

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A highly stretchable strain sensor is presented, that leverages controlled crack formation and ion bridging in a polyvinyl chloride gel/graphene to achieve exceptional sensitivity (gauge factor up to 1.5 × 10⁶) and mechanical stability. By optimizing plasticizer properties, the conductive pathways are finely tuned, enabling robust, real‐time monitoring

Exercise without Weight Loss Prevents Seasonal Decline in Vitamin D Metabolites: The VitaDEx Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In people with overweight or obesity, regular exercise even without weight loss or vitamin D supplementation completely prevents the usual winter decline in the vitamin D metabolite that maintains health at a cellular level, 1,25(OH)2D3, and ameliorates the decline in the vitamin D status marker 25(OH)D.
