SORI: A softness-rendering interface to unravel the nature of softness perception

Jamie Paik, Mustafa Mete, Hwayeong Jeong

Tactile perception of softness serves a critical role in the survival, well-being, and social interaction among various species, including humans. This perception informs activities from food selection in animals to medical palpation for disease detection ...

Mitochondrial Pseudogenes Suggest Repeated Inter-Species Hybridization among Direct Human Ancestors

Konstantin Popadin

The hypothesis that the evolution of humans involves hybridization between diverged species has been actively debated in recent years. We present the following novel evidence in support of this hypothesis: the analysis of nuclear pseudogenes of mtDNA ("NUM ...

Adaptive Task-Space Force Control for Humanoid-to-Human Assistance

Anastasia Bolotnikova

We envision a humanoid robot to serve as a source of additional motion-support forces in assistance for frail persons. In this context, we present a control strategy for a humanoid to adaptively regulate its assistive force contribution. First, we identify ...

Phenotypic plasticity versus ecotypic differentiation under recurrent summer drought in two drought-tolerant pine species

Christoph Bachofen

Despite worldwide reports of high tree mortality, growing evidence indicates that many tree species are well adapted to survive repeated dry spells. The drought resilience of trees is related to their phenotypic plasticity and ecotypic differentiation. Whe ...

MonStereo: When Monocular and Stereo Meet at the Tail of 3D Human Localization

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Sven Kreiss, Taylor Ferdinand Mordan, Lorenzo Bertoni

Monocular and stereo visions are cost-effective solutions for 3D human localization in the context of self-driving cars or social robots. However, they are usually developed independently and have their respective strengths and limitations. We propose a no ...

Conversational Multi-Hop Reasoning with Neural Commonsense Knowledge and Symbolic Logic Rules

Antoine Bosselut, Forough Arabshahi

One of the challenges faced by conversational agents is their inability to identify unstated presumptions of their users' commands, a task trivial for humans due to their common sense. In this paper, we propose a zeroshot commonsense reasoning system for c ...

Bayesian regression explains how human participants handle parameter uncertainty

Michael Herzog, Jean-Pascal Théodor Pfister, Mattew Pachai, Maya Anna Jastrzebowska

Author summary How do humans make prediction when the critical factor that influences the quality of the prediction is hidden? Here, we address this question by conducting a simple psychophysical experiment in which participants had to extrapolate a parabo ...

Temperature dependence of the(pi,0)anomaly in the excitation spectrum of the 2D quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Martin Mourigal, Goran Nilsen

It is well established that in the low-temperature limit, the two-dimensional quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice (2DQHAFSL) exhibits an anomaly in its spectrum at short-wavelengths on the zone-boundary. In the vicinity of the (pi, 0) po ...

Analysis and Transfer of Human Movement Manipulability in Industry-like Activities

Sylvain Calinon, Noémie Laure Gwendoline Jaquier

Humans exhibit outstanding learning, planning and adaptation capabilities while performing different types of industrial tasks. Given some knowledge about the task requirements, humans are able to plan their limbs motion in anticipation of the execution of ...

Ubiquitous aluminium contamination in water and amyloid hybrid membranes as a sustainable possible solution

Francesco Stellacci, Raffaele Mezzenga, Malvina Julia Ida Pauchard

We develop a membrane technology based on amyloid fibrils to remove aluminium from water and minimize its exposure to humans. We study aluminium adsorption by amyloid fibrils by evaluating the binding isotherms, the thermodynamics and the effects of differ ...
