We present a novel adaptive oscillator, called Adaptive Natural Oscillator (ANO), to exploit the natural dynamics of a given robotic system. This tool is built upon the Adaptive Frequency Oscillator (AFO), and it can be used as a pattern generator in robot ...
In this paper, we present a new mechanical model for biped locomotion, composed of three linear pendulums (one per leg and one for the whole upper body) to describe stance, swing and torso dynamics. In addition to a double support phase, this model has dif ...
We consider the infinite dimensional linear programming (inf-LP) approach for solving stochastic control problems. The inf-LP corresponding to problems with uncountable state and input spaces is in general computationally intractable. By focusing on linear ...
We analyze the numerical performance of a preconditioning technique recently proposed in [1] for the efficient solution of parametrized linear systems arising from the finite element (FE) discretization of parameter-dependent elliptic partial differential ...
We investigate both theoretically and experimentally a laser-based controlled tuning of the nonlinear behaviors of a single mechanical resonator. Thanks to localized three-dimensional modifications induced by femtosecond-laser irradiation, a Duffing-like o ...
We analyze the numerical performance of a preconditioning technique recently proposed in [4] for the ecient solution of parametrized linear systems arising from the finite element (FE) discretization of parameter-dependent elliptic partial differential equ ...
The fully connected conditional random field (CRF) with Gaussian pairwise potentials has proven popular and effective for multi-class semantic segmentation. While the energy of a dense CRF can be minimized accurately using a linear programming (LP) relaxat ...
In this article, we propose a new controller for recovering intermittent pushes during bipedal locomotion. We use 3LP as a template model which can provide closed-form solutions for state evolution. The idea behind our controller is to project the perturbe ...
This paper presents a new formulation and synthesis approach for stabilizing cooperative distributed model predictive control (MPC) for networks of linear systems, which are coupled in their dynamics. The controller is defined by a network-wide constrained ...
We propose a novel combination of the reduced basis method with low-rank tensor techniques for the efficient solution of parameter-dependent linear systems in the case of several parameters. This combination, called rbTensor, consists of three ingredients. ...
