Bimanual dynamic grabbing and tossing of objects onto a moving target

Bimanual grabbing and tossing of packages onto trays or conveyor belts remains a human activity in the industry. For robots, such a dynamic task requires coordination between two arms and fast adaptation abilities when the tossing target is moving and subj ...

Ergodic Exploration Using Tensor Train: Applications in Insertion Tasks

Sylvain Calinon, Suhan Narayana Shetty

In robotics, ergodic control extends the tracking principle by specifying a probability distribution over an area to cover instead of a trajectory to track. The original problem is formulated as a spectral multiscale coverage problem, typically requiring t ...

Gaussian Process Regression for Maximum Entropy Distribution

Mohammadhossein Gorji, Mohsen Sadr

Maximum-Entropy Distributions offer an attractive family of probability densities suitable for moment closure problems. Yet finding the Lagrange multipliers which parametrize these distributions, turns out to be a computational bottleneck for practical clo ...

Slope-Space Integrals for Specular Next Event Estimation

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Tizian Lucien Zeltner, Guillaume Rémi Bruno Loubet

Monte Carlo light transport simulations often lack robustness in scenes containing specular or near-specular materials. Widely used uni- and bidirectional sampling strategies tend to find light paths involving such materials with insufficient probability, ...

Reparameterizing Discontinuous Integrands for Differentiable Rendering

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Guillaume Rémi Bruno Loubet

Differentiable rendering has recently opened the door to a number of challenging inverse problems involving photorealistic images, such as computational material design and scattering-aware reconstruction of geometry and materials from photographs. Differe ...

Meta-analysis of incomplete microarray studies

Anthony Christopher Davison, Darlene Goldstein, Alix Corinne Josiane Colette Zollinger

Meta-analysis of microarray studies to produce an overall gene list is relatively straightforward when complete data are available. When some studies lack information, for example, having only a ranked list of genes instead of complete primary data, it is ...

Application of the PSI-NUSS Tool for the Estimation of Nuclear Data Related k(eff) Uncertainties for the OECD/NEA WPNCS UACSA Phase I Benchmark

Andreas Pautz, Hakim Ferroukhi, Tiankai Zhu, Alexander Vasiliev

At the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), a methodology titled PSI-NUSS is under development for the propagation of nuclear data uncertainties into Criticality Safety Evaluation (CSE) with the Monte Carlo code MCNPX. The primary purpose is to provide a complem ...

Top-k/w publish/subscribe: finding k most relevant publications in sliding time window w

Karl Aberer, Ivana Podnar, Kresimir Pripuzic

Existing content-based publish/subscribe systems are designed assuming that all matching publications are equally relevant to a subscription. As we cannot know in advance the distribution of publication content, the following two unwanted situations are hi ...

On the Use of Cascade Structure to Correct Impulsive Noise in Multicarrier Systems

We propose a new decoding algorithm based on a cascade structure for impulsive noise correction in multicarrier systems such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) based systems. This new cascade structure based algorithm has the advantage to ...
