The development of intelligent and diversified ser vices in urban rail transit (URT) has resulted in an increasing de mand for high-rate communication between vehicles and ground equipment. However, e…
Autonomous mechanical thrombectomy (MT) presents substantial challenges due to highly variable vascular geometries and the requirements for accurate, real-time control. While reinforcement learning (R…
We develop a wildfire simulation model that evolves the temperature scalar field using an energy balance equation accounting for heat generation, transport, and loss. For these equations, we develop q…
Satellite constellation design requires optimizing orbital parameters across multiple satellites to maximize mission specific metrics. For many types of mission, it is desirable to maximize coverage a…
Shell structures are pivotal in the fields of architecture and engineering, due to their aesthetic appeal and structural efficiency. Recently, 3D concrete printing has reignited the interest in these …
Autonomous robots operating in natural karstic caves face perception and navigation challenges that are qualitatively distinct from those encountered in mines or tunnels: irregular geometry, reflectiv…
Contact-implicit trajectory optimization (CITO) enables the automatic discovery of contact sequences, but most methods rely on fine time discretization to capture all contact events accurately, which …
Wildfires pose an increasing threat to the safety and reliability of power systems, particularly in distribution networks located in fire-prone regions. To mitigate ignition risk from electrical infra…
Video conferencing has become central to professional collaboration, yet most platforms offer limited support for deaf, hard-of-hearing, and multilingual users. The World Health Organisation estimates…
This work introduces a modular platform that brings together six AI services, automatic speech recognition via OpenAI Whisper, multilingual translation through Meta NLLB, speech synthesis using AWS Po…
In this paper, we propose applying semantic embedding to learn the range of behaviors exhibited by molecular swarms, thereby providing a richer set of features to optimize such systems. Specifically, …
Untethered magnetic millirobots offer significant potential for minimally invasive cardiac therapies; however, achieving reliable autonomous control in pulsatile cardiac flow remains challenging. This…
Macular Holes, Central serous retinopathy and Diabetic Retinopathy are one of the most widespread maladies of the eyes responsible for either partial or complete vision loss, thus making it clear that…
As robots increasingly enter the workforce, human-robot interaction (HRI) must address how implicit social biases influence user preferences. This paper investigates how users rationalize their select…
While we are making progress in overcoming infectious diseases and cancer; one of the major medical challenges of the mid-21st century will be the rising prevalence of stroke. Large vessels occlusions…
This paper presents UPV_RIR_DB, a structured database of measured room impulse responses (RIRs) designed to provide acoustic data with explicit spatial metadata and traceable acquisition parameters. T…
Miniaturised soft pneumatic actuators are crucial for robotic intervention within highly constrained anatomical pathways. This work presents the design and validation of a fibre-reinforced soft actuat…
Open-source text-to-speech (TTS) frameworks have emerged as highly adaptable platforms for developing speech synthesis systems across a wide range of languages. However, their applicability is not uni…
Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) in real-world scenarios remains challenging due to severe class imbalance and the prevalence of spontaneous, natural speech. While recent approaches leverage self-supe…
Reliable estimation of surgical needle 3D position and orientation is essential for autonomous robotic suturing, yet existing methods operate almost exclusively under stereoscopic vision. In monocular…
