This paper presents an expert-guided active-inference-inspired framework for adaptive UAV swarm trajectory planning. The proposed method converts multi-UAV trajectory design from a repeated combinator…
This paper considers the robust control of a catenary robot composed of two quadrotors connected by an inextensible cable. The system is modeled on \(SE(3)\), with the cable treated as a geometric sub…
Robotic-assisted surgery offers significant clinical advantages but largely eliminates direct haptic feedback, increasing the risk of excessive tool-tissue interaction forces. Although recent commerci…
Annotating long-horizon robotic demonstrations with precise temporal action boundaries is crucial for training and evaluating action segmentation and manipulation policy learning methods. Existing ann…
In this paper, we introduce GET-2D-1.0, a fast grasp planner for the GET asymmetrical gripper that operates from a single-view RGB-D image, using the Ferrari-Canny metric and a novel sampling strategy…
Contact variability, sensing uncertainty, and external disturbances make grasp execution stochastic. Expected-quality objectives ignore tail outcomes and often select grasps that fail under adverse co…
Variable flux memory motors, which employ Low Coercive Force (LCF) magnets, achieve extended high-efficiency operation through controllable magnetization states. To address the need for a unified appr…
Humanoid robots operating in human-centered environments (e.g., homes, hospitals, and offices) must mitigate foot--ground impact transients, as impact-induced vibration and noise degrade user experien…
Haptic feedback has been a long-missed feature in robotic-assisted surgery, one that would allow surgeons to perceive tissue properties and apply controlled forces during delicate procedures. Although…
Humanoid robots operating in unstructured environments must recover from unexpected disturbances-a capability that remains challenging for end-to-end control policies. We present RECOVERFORMER, a full…
This paper presents a novel control strategy for multi-agent shepherding of non-cohesive targets in obstacle-rich environments. Unlike previous approaches that assume cohesive flocking behavior, our m…
Sub-gram flapping-wing flying insect robots (FIRs) are challenging to model because of mechanical complexity in their wings, unsteady aerodynamic flow, and the difficulty of making precise measurement…
The Gaussian scale parameter \(\epsilon\) is central to the behavior of Gaussian Kolmogorov--Arnold Networks (KANs), yet its role in deep edge-based architectures has not been studied systematically. …
Evaluating the pinch capability of a robotic hand is important for understanding its functional dexterity. However, many existing grasp evaluation methods rely on object geometry or contact force mode…
Reinforcement learning-based control policies have been frequently demonstrated to be more effective than analytical techniques for many manipulation tasks. Commonly, these methods learn neural contro…
Unknown payloads can strongly affect compliant robotic manipulation, especially when the payload center of mass is not aligned with the tool center point. In this case, the payload generates an offset…
This paper presents an AI-enabled cascaded hybrid vision/force control framework for tendon-driven aerial continuum manipulators based on constant-strain modeling in $SE(3)$ as a coupled system. The p…
Aerobat is a bat-inspired flapping-wing robot with a wing gait generate by the computational structure, a planar linkage of carbon fiber links driven by a single motor. This design minimizes weight bu…
Functional magnetic composites capable of large deformation, load bearing, and multifunctional motion are essential for next-generation adaptive soft robots. Here, we present muscle-inspired magnetic …
Tillage operations account for a large share of on-farm diesel consumption, yet the fuel efficiency of the combined tractor-implement system is not optimised in current practice. Modern continuously v…
