Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Exploration-based model learning with self-attention for risk-sensitive robot control

Sudong Lee

Model-based reinforcement learning for robot control offers the advantages of overcoming concerns on data collection and iterative processes for policy improvement in model-free methods. However, both methods use exploration strategy relying on heuristics ...

Online active and dynamic object shape exploration with a multi-fingered robotic hand

Aude Billard, Kunpeng Yao, Xiao Gao, Farshad Khadivar

The sense of touch can provide a robot with a wealth of information about the contact region when interacting with an unknown environment. Nevertheless, utilizing touch information to plan exploration paths and adjust robot posture to improve task efficien ...

, ,

In this paper, we present an approach for learning a neural implicit signed distance function expressed in joint space coordinates, that efficiently computes distance-to-collisions for arbitrary robotic manipulator configurations. Computing such distances ...

Closed-Loop Position Control of a Self-Sensing 3-DoF Origami Module With Pneumatic Actuators

Jamie Paik, Mustafa Mete

This letter presents closed-loop position control of a pneumatically actuated modular robotic platform "pneumagami" that can be stacked to enlarge work and design space for wearable applications. The module is a 3 degrees of freedom (DoF) parallel robot wi ...

Beyond Soft Hands: Efficient Grasping With Non-Anthropomorphic Soft Grippers

Yufei Hao

Grasping and manipulation are challenging tasks that are nonetheless critical for many robotic systems and applications. A century ago, robots were conceived as humanoid automata. While conceptual at the time, this viewpoint remains influential today. Many ...

FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2021

In this paper, we propose SCALAR, a calibration method to simultaneously calibrate the kinematic parameters of a 6-DoF robot and the extrinsic parameters of a 2-D laser range finder (LRF) attached to the robot's flange. The calibration setup requires only ...

Patient Motion Using a Computerized Leg Brace in Everyday Locomotion Tasks

Exoskeletal systems are becoming a rehabilitation standard of care for persons with lower limb paralysis. As muscular dysfunctions affect a heterogeneous patient group, each individual develops their own strategy to negotiate everyday locomotion challenges ...

Control of Bio-Inspired Sprawling Posture Quadruped Robots with an Actuated Spine

Tomislav Horvat

Sprawling posture robots are characterized by upper limb segments protruding horizontally from the body, resulting in lower body height and wider support on the ground. Combined with an actuated segmented spine and tail, such morphology resembles that of s ...

SCALAR - Simultaneous Calibration of 2D Laser And Robot's Kinematic Parameters Using Three Planar Constraints

Teguh Santoso Lembono

Industrial robots are increasingly used in various applications where the robot accuracy becomes very important, hence calibrations of the robot's kinematic parameters and the measurement system's extrinsic parameters are required. However, the existing ca ...
