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.

Towards a self-deploying and gliding robot

Dario Floreano, Mirko Kovac, Jean-Christophe Zufferey

Strategies for hybrid locomotion such as jumping and gliding are used in nature by many different animals for traveling over rough terrain. This combination of locomotion modes also allows small robots to overcome relatively large obstacles at a minimal en ...

Active Vision for Goal-Oriented Humanoid Robot Walking

Dario Floreano, Mototaka Suzuki

Complex visual tasks may be tackled with remarkably simple neural architectures generated by a co-evolutionary process of active vision and feature selection. This hypothesis has recently been tested in several robotic applications such as shape discrimina ...

Teaching of an Acrobatic Maneuver to an Aerial Robot

Adrian Arfire

In this project, it is desired to learn different acrobatic maneuvers through a set of demonstrations shown by an expert pilot. Due to the complexity of the vehicle's dynamics, at first step, it is necessary to find an appropriate set of states that can be ...

An Exploration of Online Parallel Learning in Heterogeneous Multi-Robot Swarms

Alcherio Martinoli, James Pugh

Designing effective behavioral controllers for mobile robots can be difficult and tedious; this process can be circumvented by using unsupervised learning techniques which allow robots to evolve their own controllers online in an automated fashion. In mult ...

Synthesis, modeling, and experimental validation of distributed robotic search

James Pugh

The work of this thesis centers around the research subject of distributed robotic search. Within the field of distributed robotic systems, a task of particular interest is attempting to locate one or more targets in a possibly unknown environment. While n ...

The Cost of Reality: Effects of Real-World Factors on Multi-Robot Search

Alcherio Martinoli, James Pugh

Designing algorithms for multi-robot systems can be a complex and difficult process: the cost of such systems can be very high, collecting experimental data can be time consuming, and individual robots may malfunction, invalidating experiments. These const ...

Inspiring and Modeling Multi-Robot Search with Particle Swarm Optimization

Alcherio Martinoli, James Pugh

Within the field of multi-robot systems, multi-robot search is one area which is currently receiving a lot of research attention. One major challenge within this area is to design effective algorithms that allow a team of robots to work together to find th ...

Autonomous Self-assembly in a Swarm-bot

Francesco Mondada, Michael Bonani, Roderich Gross

Multi-robot systems have been studied in tasks that require the robots to be physically linked. In such a configuration, a group of robots may navigate a terrain that proves too difficult for a single robot. On the contrary, many collective tasks can be ac ...

Cooperation through self-assembly in multi-robot

Francesco Mondada, Michael Bonani, Roderich Gross

This article illustrates the methods and results of two sets of experiments in which a group of mobile robots, called s-bots, are required to physically connect to each other, that is, to self-assemble, to cope with environmental conditions that prevent th ...
