The robotic manipulation of Deformable Linear Objects (DLOs) is a fundamental challenge due to the high-dimensional, non-linear dynamics of flexible structures and the complexity of maintaining topolo…
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, …
Flexible-antenna systems, which use a small number of radio frequency (RF) chains to dynamically access a large set of candidate antenna locations, have emerged as a hardware-efficient architecture fo…
In this paper, we propose an enhanced physical layer security approach, named joint secrecy and covert communication (JSACC), which aims to improve the performance of physical layer security (PLS). Th…
Nasotracheal intubation (NTI) is a critical clinical procedure for establishing and maintaining patient airway patency. Machine-assisted NTI has emerged as a pivotal approach for optimizing procedural…
In this article, we propose a simple and efficient hyperreduced strain-space model order reduction (MOR) approach for hyperelastic representative volume elements (RVEs), called Empirical Material Samp…
Approximating collision-free space is fundamental to robot planning in complex environments. Convex geometric representations, such as polytopes and ellipsoids, are widely employed due to their struct…
Navigating quadruped robots in unstructured 3D environments poses significant challenges, requiring goal-directed motion, effective exploration to escape from local minima, and posture adaptation to t…
Nuclear fusion is a promising clean energy source in which deuterium and tritium fuse inside a magnetically confined plasma in a tokamak, releasing energy. A key challenge on the route to practical nu…
In multi-agent systems, should limited resources be concentrated into a few capable agents or distributed among many simpler ones? This work formulates the split over $n$ resource sharing problem wher…
Objective metrics for emotional expressiveness are vital for speech generation, particularly in expressive synthesis and voice conversion requiring emotional prosody transfer. To quantify this, the fi…
Localized features such as singularities, sharp gradients, discontinuities, and moving sources require adaptive finite element discretizations. Conventional refinement strategies introduce significant…
Vehicle platooning has attracted increasing attention as a promising approach to improve traffic efficiency, energy consumption, and roadway safety through coordinated multi-vehicle operation. A key c…
Despite transformative advances in generative motion synthesis, real-time interactive motion control remains dominated by traditional techniques. In this work, we identify two key challenges in bridgi…
Human videos contain rich manipulation priors, but using them for robot learning remains difficult because raw observations entangle scene understanding, human motion, and embodiment-specific action. …
In large antenna arrays, hardware power consumption becomes a dominant design constraint, making energy efficiency (EE) a first-class objective alongside spectral efficiency (SE). Microwave linear ana…
In pathology, the spatial distribution and proportions of tissue types are key indicators of disease progression, and are more readily available than fine-grained annotations. However, these assessmen…
Inefficient driving behaviors, such as overly conservative yielding, remain a key obstacle to deployment of autonomous vehicles (AVs). Instantaneous driving efficiency metrics are crucial for self-dri…
Accurately estimating friction coefficients between arbitrary material pairs is critical for robotics, digital fabrication, and physics-based simulation, but exhaustive pairwise testing scales quadrat…
The rapid growth of large, power-electronics-rich data center (DC) loads is creating new operational challenges for bulk power systems. A key risk arises when a DC uninterruptible power supply (UPS) d…
