A Solution to Adaptive Mobile Manipulator Throwing

Mobile manipulator throwing is a promising method to increase the flexibility and efficiency of dynamic manipulation in factories. Its major challenge is to efficiently plan a feasible throw under a wide set of task specifications. We show that the mobile ...

Multi-Dimensional Explanation of Target Variables from Documents

Boi Faltings, Claudiu-Cristian Musat, Diego Matteo Antognini

Automated predictions require explanations to be interpretable by humans. Past work used attention and rationale mechanisms to find words that predict the target variable of a document. Often though, they result in a tradeoff between noisy explanations or ...

Leveraging insurance customer data to characterize socioeconomic indicators of Swiss municipalities

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Emanuele Massaro

The availability of reliable socioeconomic data is critical for the design of urban policies and the implementation of location-based services; however, often, their temporal and geographical coverage remain scarce. We explore the potential for insurance c ...

Visual Focus of Attention Estimation in 3D Scene with an Arbitrary Number of Targets

Jean-Marc Odobez, Rémy Alain Siegfried

Visual Focus of Attention (VFOA) estimation in conversation is challenging as it relies on difficult to estimate information (gaze) combined with scene features like target positions and other contextual information (speaking status) allowing to disambigua ...

Directional Cross-Correlation for Improved Aberration Phase Estimation in Pulse-Echo Speed-of-Sound Imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Samuel Denys Beuret, Simon Canales

There has been a recent surge in methods targeting the recovery of a speed-of-sound map from pulse-echo ultrasound measurements. We focused in this work on a particular technique and identified a drawback shared by similar methods - namely the necessity of ...

Optical frequency comb based parallel fm lidar

Tobias Kippenberg, Anton Lukashchuk

In a LIDAR device (100) a laser light source (110) generates first laser light having a first laser frequency which is frequency modulated with a first frequency modulation. A non-linear optical element (120) receives the first laser light and generates th ...

Age-Dependent Asymmetry of Wrist Position Sense Is Not Influenced by Stochastic Tactile Stimulation

Jamie Paik, Olivier Lambercy, Harshal Arun Sonar

Stochastic stimulation has been shown to improve movement, balance, the sense of touch, and may also improve position sense. This stimulation can be non-invasive and may be a simple technology to enhance proprioception. In this study, we investigated wheth ...

Quantification in Musculoskeletal Imaging Using Computational Analysis and Machine Learning: Segmentation and Radiomics

Meritxell Bach Cuadra

Although still limited in clinical practice, quantitative analysis is expected to increase the value of musculoskeletal (MSK) imaging. Segmentation aims at isolating the tissues and/or regions of interest in the image and is crucial to the extraction of qu ...

Intent Prediction Based on Biomechanical Coordination of EMG and Vision-Filtered Gaze for End-Point Control of an Arm Prosthesis

Aude Billard, Silvestro Micera, Iason Batzianoulis, Nili Eliana Krausz

We propose a novel controller for powered prosthetic arms, where fused EMG and gaze data predict the desired end-point for a full arm prosthesis, which could drive the forward motion of individual joints. We recorded EMG, gaze, and motion-tracking during p ...

Chemistry and Analysis of Nanoparticle-Modified Living Cells

Tanja Thomsen

Conventional therapeutics are often limited by their targeting ability, resulting in harmful and potential fatal side-effects for the patients. Recently, new strategies have been developed to improve target specificity of drugs in order to generate more ef ...
