Identification of the trade-off between speed and efficiency in undulatory swimming using a bio-inspired robot

Auke Ijspeert, Karen Ann J Mulleners, Kamilo Andres Melo Becerra, Alexandros Anastasiadis, Laura Isabel Paez Coy, Eric Daniel Tytell

Anguilliform swimmers, like eels or lampreys, are highly efficient swimmers. Key to understanding their performances is the relationship between the body’s kinematics and resulting swimming speed and efficiency. But, we cannot prescribe kinematics to livin ...

Get the Best of Both Worlds: Improving Accuracy and Transferability by Grassmann Class Representation

Haoqi Wang, Zhigang Li

We generalize the class vectors found in neural networks to linear subspaces (i.e., points in the Grassmann manifold) and show that the Grassmann Class Representation (GCR) enables simultaneous improvement in accuracy and feature transferability. In GCR, e ...

Computational Analysis and Design of Structurally Stable Assemblies with Rigid Parts

An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or functionality. Assemblies make it possible to fabricate large and complex objects with several small and simple parts. Such parts can be assembled and disassemble ...

Non-Abelian band topology in noninteracting metals

Quansheng Wu

Electron energy bands of crystalline solids generically exhibit degeneracies called band-structure nodes. Here, we introduce non-Abelian topological charges that characterize line nodes inside the momentum space of crystalline metals with space-time invers ...

Technology mapping of reversible circuits to Clifford+T quantum circuits

Mathias Soeken, Nabila Abdessaied

The Clifford+T quantum gate library has attracted much interest in the design of quantum circuits, particularly since the contained operations can be implemented in a fault-tolerant manner. Since fault tolerant implementations of the T gate have very high ...

Subspaces Indexing Model on Grassmann Manifold for Image Search

Xinchao Wang

Conventional linear subspace learning methods like principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA) derive subspaces from the whole data set. These approaches have limitations in the sense that they are linear while the data distribut ...

Grassmann Hashing For Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search In High Dimensional Space

Lei Zhang, Xinchao Wang

Locality-Sensitive Hashing (LSH) approximates nearest neighbors in high dimensions by projecting original data into low-dimensional subspaces. The basic idea is to hash data samples to ensure that the probability of collision is much higher for samples tha ...

Design of hybrid-kinematic mechanisms for machine tools

Patric Pham

The machine tool industry is a well established, old and extremely important branch of today's manufacturing industry. With the ongoing globalization and the resulting increase of competition in this industry, the manufacturers have to push their technolog ...

A new ambulatory system for comparative evaluation of the three-dimensional knee kinematics, applied to anterior cruciate ligament injuries

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Bijan Najafi

The aim of this study was to develop an ambulatory system for the three-dimensional (3D) knee kinematics evaluation, which can be used outside a laboratory during long-term monitoring. In order to show the efficacy of this ambulatory system, knee function ...

Gas absorption experiments in a pilot plant column with the sulzer structured packing mellapack

Data for the volumetric mass transfer coefficient, kLa, and the effective area, of structured packings have rarely been reported in the literature. This is despite the ever-increasing importance of structured packings in industrial separation columns for a ...
