A geometric optimal control approach for imitation and generalization of manipulation skills

Sylvain Calinon, Amirreza Razmjoo Fard

Daily manipulation tasks are characterized by regular features associated with the task structure, which can be described by multiple geometric primitives related to actions and object shapes. Only using Cartesian coordinate systems cannot fully represent ...

Evaluation of the CloudSat surface snowfall product over Antarctica using ground-based precipitation radars

Alexis Berne, Jacopo Grazioli

In situ observations of snowfall over the Antarctic Ice Sheet are scarce. Currently, continent-wide assessments of snowfall are limited to information from the Cloud Profiling Radar on board the CloudSat satellite, which has not been evaluated up to now. I ...

Sampling and Exact Reconstruction of Pulses with Variable Width

Martin Vetterli, Adam James Scholefield, Gilles Baechler, Loïc Arnaud Baboulaz

Recent sampling results enable the reconstruction of signals composed of streams of fixed-shaped pulses. These results have found applications in topics as varied as channel estimation, biomedical imaging and radio astronomy. However, in many real signals, ...

Persistent spatial clusters of high body mass index in a Swiss urban population as revealed by the 5-year GeoCoLaus longitudinal study

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous, Joël Chételat, Murielle Bochud, Solange Catherine Gaillard

OBJECTIVE Body mass index (BMI) may cluster in space among adults and be spatially dependent. Whether and how BMI clusters evolve over time in a population is currently unknown. We aimed to determine the spatial dependence of BMI and its 5-year evolution i ...

Using very toxic or especially hazardous chemical substances in a research and teaching institution

Thierry Meyer, Jean-Luc Marendaz, Sebastian Brückner

Wrong manipulation, storage or disposal of chemicals can cause great damage whether it occurs on industrial plants, in academia or at home. Amongst the numerous reasons, lack of knowledge and haste are the most common ones. Except for a few substances subj ...

Incremental Model Identification in Distributed Two-phase Reaction Systems

Dominique Bonvin, Julien Léo Billeter, Diogo Filipe Mateus Rodrigues

Transformation to variant and invariant states, called extents, is used to decouple the dynamic effects of reaction systems and serves as basis for incremental model identification, in which kinetic models are identified individually for each dynamic effec ...
