Pronunciation is a critical yet challenging aspect of language acquisition, especially for children. In this work, we propose a new teachable agent system designed to support children's pronunciation learning through a Learning-by-Teaching paradigm to addr ...
Robust in-hand manipulation of objects with movable content requires estimation and prediction of the contents' motion with enough anticipation to allow time to compensate for resulting internal torques. The quick estimation of the objects' dynamics can be ...
Autonomous robots have the potential to fundamentally transform conventional farming methods, e.g. by enabling economically viable farming of sloped arable land. However, navigation on slopes in harsh conditions is challenging for robots as they must be pr ...
