Time-delayed dual-rate haptic rendering: stability analysis and reduced order modelingInternational Journal of Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Tập 5 - Trang 510-533 - 2021
Suhail Ganiny, Majid H. Koul, Babar Ahmad
This work presents an exhaustive analysis of the impact of time delay on the
stability of dual-rate haptics controllers using an exact discrete-time method.
The mathematical formulation of such controllers leads to higher order
state-space models, in particular, for higher values of time delay and sampling
rates. A balanced truncation based model order reduction framework is therefore
utilized for... hiện toàn bộ
Mismatched image identification using histogram of loop closure error for feature-based optical mappingInternational Journal of Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Tập 3 - Trang 196-206 - 2019
Armagan Elibol, Nak-Young Chong, Hyunjung Shim, Jinwhan Kim, Nuno Gracias, Rafael Garcia
Image registration is one of the most fundamental steps in optical mapping from
mobile platforms. Lately, image registration is performed by detecting salient
points in two images and matching their descriptors. Robust methods [such as
Random Sample Consensus (RANSAC)] are employed to eliminate outliers and compute
the geometric transformation between the coordinate frames of images, typically

2D-3D hybrid mapping for path planning in autonomous robotsInternational Journal of Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Tập 7 - Trang 291-303 - 2023
Rajesh Kannan Megalingam, Santosh Tantravahi, Hemanth Sai Surya Kumar Tammana, Hari Sudarshan Rahul Puram
Computational complexity is one of the critical attributes of robot design.
Mapping, a vitally important feature of auto-navigation of robots is one such
area where computational complexity is of concern. An appropriate spatial
representation of the surroundings is required for efficient path planning.
Creation of a 2D map alone for a given environment is not sufficient even though
it has the leas... hiện toàn bộ
Iterative learning of human partner’s desired trajectory for proactive human–robot collaborationInternational Journal of Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Tập 4 - Trang 229-242 - 2020
Jingkang Xia, Deqing Huang, Yanan Li, Na Qin
A period-varying iterative learning control scheme is proposed for a robotic
manipulator to learn a target trajectory that is planned by a human partner but
unknown to the robot, which is a typical scenario in many applications. The
proposed method updates the robot’s reference trajectory in an iterative manner
to minimize the interaction force applied by the human. Although a repetitive
human–rob... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of human operator on stability of haptic rendering: a closed-form equationInternational Journal of Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Tập 4 - Trang 403-415 - 2020
Ahmad Mashayekhi, Saeed Behbahani, Fanny Ficuciello, Bruno Siciliano
In this paper an analytical stability criterion for linear haptic devices is
determined, in the presence of the operator. The model of the haptic device and
the virtual environment are assumed as mass-damper and spring-damper,
respectively. Two different models for operator’s hand are assumed, and the
stability boundaries are derived analytically. The main contribution of this
paper is the analyti... hiện toàn bộ
Robot grasping in dense clutter via view-based experience transferInternational Journal of Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Tập 6 - Trang 23-37 - 2021
Jen-Wei Wang, Chia-Lien Li, Jian-Lun Chen, Jyh-Jone Lee
To perform object grasping in dense clutter, we propose a novel algorithm for
grasp detection. To obtain grasp candidates, we developed instance segmentation
and view-based experience transfer as part of the algorithm. Subsequently, we
established an algorithm for collision avoidance and stability analysis to
determine the optimal grasp for robot grasping. The strategy for the view-based
experienc... hiện toàn bộ
DKH: a hybridized approach for image inpainting using Bayes probabilistic-based image fusionInternational Journal of Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Tập 7 - Trang 149-163 - 2022
Manjunath R. Hudagi, Shridevi Soma, Rajkumar L. Biradar
Image inpainting is the process of removing the unwanted objects from the image
or it refers to the restoration of the original image. Despite the fact that
there are various ways for image inpainting, these traditional approaches have
some limitations in terms of data loss, which the proposed methodology should be
able to address. This paper introduces a hybrid image inpainting method, termed
DKH... hiện toàn bộ
Multi-frequency ultrasound transducers for medical applications: a surveyInternational Journal of Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Tập 2 - Trang 296-312 - 2018
Xue Li Sun, Ji Peng Yan, Yue Feng Li, Honghai Liu
Nowadays, ultrasound imaging (US) has made extensive applications in the field
of the medical imaging due to its particular advantages, in which the transducer
plays an important role. The traditional single-frequency transducers can not

A non-periodic planning and control framework of dynamic legged locomotionInternational Journal of Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Tập 4 - Trang 95-108 - 2020
Ye Zhao, Yan Gu
This study proposes an integrated planning and control framework for achieving
three-dimensional robust and dynamic legged locomotion over uneven terrain. The
proposed framework is composed of three hierarchical layers. The high-level
layer is a state-space motion planner designing highly dynamic locomotion
behaviors based on a reduced-order robot model. This motion planner incorporates
