We present FlexiTac, a low-cost, open-source, and scalable piezoresistive tactile sensing solution designed for robotic end-effectors. FlexiTac is a practical "plug-in" module consisting of (i) thin, …
Understanding social dominance in animal behavior is critical for neuroscience and behavioral studies. In this work, we explore the capability of Multimodal Large Language Models(MLLMs) to analyze raw…
Brain-inspired non-Boolean computing offers intrinsic error tolerance and parallelism, but its practical deployment is limited by the lack of compact, energy-efficient spiking hardware compatible with…
Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially cloud platforms and large language models (LLMs), is changing how engineering is taught by making learning more interactive and flexible. However, in electrica…
Object extraction tasks often occur in disassembly problems, where bolts, screws, or pins have to be removed from tight, narrow spaces. In such problems, the distance to the environment is often on th…
The growing deployment of small Unmanned Aerial Systems (sUASs) in low-altitude airspaces has increased the need for reliable tactical deconfliction under safety-critical constraints. Tactical deconfl…
Long-horizon task planning for heterogeneous multi-robot systems is essential for deploying collaborative teams in real-world environments; yet, it remains challenging due to the large volume of perce…
This paper presents an empirically grounded agent-based model capturing trust dynamics, workload distribution, and collaborative performance in human-robot teams. The model, implemented in NetLogo 6.4…
This paper investigates a uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAV)-assisted cell-free architecture for vehicular networks in road-constrained environments. Roads are modeled using a Poisson Line Process (PLP), …
Autonomous aerial navigation in absolute darkness is crucial for post-disaster search and rescue operations, which often occur from disaster-zone power outages. Yet, due to resource constraints, tiny …
Open-vocabulary keyword spotting (KWS) with text-based enrollment has emerged as a flexible alternative to fixed-phrase triggers. Prior utterance-level matching methods, from an embedding-learning sta…
This study aims to evaluate the techno-economic feasibility of hybrid energy systems (HES) including Grid for providing reliable and sustainable power to Boru Meda Hospital, Ethiopia. HOMER pro 3.11.2…
As hyperscale and co-located data centers scale, the electric grid sees an increase in large, voltage-sensitive IT loads with these data center plant size ranging between 500 MW to 2 GW. A sudden loss…
The present document is Part 1 of a 2-part introduction to ambisonics and aims at readers who would like to work practically with ambisonics. We leave out deep technical details in this part and focus…
This paper addresses the emulation-based observer design for networked control systems (NCS) with linear plants that operate at two time scales in the presence of measurement noise. The system is form…
This paper proposes MATT-Diff: Multimodal Active Target Tracking by Diffusion Policy, a control policy for active multi-target tracking using a mobile agent. The policy enables multiple behavior modes…
Gradient-based optimization of engineering designs is limited by non-differentiable components in the typical computer-aided engineering (CAE) workflow, which calculates performance metrics from desig…
Multi-Agent Task Assignment and Planning (MATP) has attracted growing attention but remains challenging in terms of scalability, spatial reasoning, and adaptability in obstacle-rich environments. To a…
Robotic fabric manipulation in garment production for sewing, cutting, and ironing requires reliable flattening and alignment, yet remains challenging due to fabric deformability, effectively infinite…
We present Voice Evaluation of Reasoning Ability (VERA), a benchmark for evaluating reasoning ability in voice-interactive systems under real-time conversational constraints. VERA comprises 2,931 voic…
