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.
We present a new robotic concept, called SWARM-BOT, based on a swarm of small and simple autonomous mobile robots called S-BOTs. S-BOTs have a particular assembling capability that allows them to connect physically to other S-BOTs and form a bigger robot e ...
In this paper we introduce a new robotic system, called swarm-bot. The system consists of a swarm of mobile robots with the ability to connect to/disconnect from each other to self-assemble into different kinds of structures. First, we describe our vision ...
With the possibility of creating and handling nanometer-sized objects, it became popular to dream of future miniaturized tools allowing completely new applications in medicine and technology. Mother nature created during evolution many such self-assembled ...
The outer membrane protein OmpF from Escherichia coli is a member of a large family of b-barrel membrane proteins. Some, like OmpF, are pore-forming proteins while others are active transporters or enzymes. We have previously shown that the receptor-bindin ...
This review discusses the potential of block copolymer type macromolecular building blocks for the preparation of self-assembled materials. Three different classes of block copolymer type architectures will be distinguished: i) coil-coil diblock copolymers ...
In this paper, we study aggregation in a swarm of simple robots, called s-bots, having the capability to self-organize and self-assemble to form a robotic system, called a swarm-bot. The aggregation process, observed in many biological systems, is of funda ...
This paper discusses the solid state and melt nanoscale structure of a series of novel poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hybrid di- and triblock copolymers, which contain amphiphilic β-strand peptide sequences. The block copolymers have been prepared via solid-p ...
A bifacial topological template exhibiting metal-binding sites and thioalkane chains has been incorporated into self-assembled monolayers and immobilised on gold surfaces: These systems allow for the detection of external ligands by SPR spectroscopy repres ...
Coarse/fine position systems have been proposed, analysed and used as a mean of enhancing the performance in manufacturing tasks. The objective of the research is to combine a micro-manipulator to a general task manipulator to realize both accurate and fas ...
The growth and the operation of all living beings are directed through the intepretation, in each of their cells, of a chemical program, the DNA. This program, called genome, is the blueprint of the organism and consists of a sequence of four discrete char ...
