  Learning adaptive dressing assistance from human demonstration
Pignat E., Calinon S. Robotics and Autonomous Systems 93 61-75, 2017.  Type: Article

Is dressing a daily chore, in a range that includes cooking, cleaning, and eating, whose automation might have an enormous impact, especially because of aging? This is unclear, but nevertheless the progress in this task may be extrapol...

  Reactionless visual servoing of a multi-arm space robot combined with other manipulation tasks
Abdul Hafez A., Mithun P., Anurag V., Shah S., Krishna K. Robotics and Autonomous Systems 911-10, 2017.  Type: Article

Visual servoing is an effective control method for autonomous manipulators, allowing them to reach a target using visual feedback. Mobile manipulation addresses the problem of controlling arms mounted on mobile bases, where visual serv...

  Modeling incubation and restructuring for creative problem solving in robots
Kralik J., Mao T., Cheng Z., Ray L. Robotics and Autonomous Systems 86162-173, 2016.  Type: Article

Think of this experiment: a monkey is faced with four quantities of food versus a single quantity, and it is given the four quantities as a reward only when it picks the single quantity. This experiment defies the common sense of an in...
