A reservoir computing system for temporal data classification and forecasting
Over the past decade or so, deep-learning approaches have become increasingly efficient in processing static data such as images. However, these techniques have been found to be somewhat less effective in analyzing temporal data, such as videos, human speech and other...
A simple technique allows robots to recognize touch and proximity
Researchers at the University of Hertfordshire have recently proposed an easy and configurable technique that enhances a robot's ability to perceive and interact with people in its surroundings. Their technique, presented in a paper pre-published on arXiv, utilizes...
A sliding mode control scheme for nonlinear positive Markov jumping systems
Researchers at Anhui University in China have recently developed a new method to enable sliding mode control in a class of nonlinear positive Markov jumping systems (MJSs) with uncertain parameters. Their approach is outlined in a paper published in Springer's...
A social perception scheme for behavior planning of autonomous cars
To navigate dynamic environments, autonomous vehicles (AVs) should be able to process all information available to them and use it to generate effective driving strategies. Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have recently proposed a social...
A social robot to enhance children’s handwriting skills
Researchers at CHILI Lab (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) in Switzerland and GAIPS Lab (University of Lisbon) in Portugal have recently developed an autonomous system designed to assist children in improving their handwriting skills. The system they created,...
An approach for motion planning on asteroid surfaces with irregular gravity fields
Asteroids are small, rocky bodies orbiting the sun that are too small to be called planets. There are millions of asteroids in the solar system, ranging in size, shape and composition. The exploration of asteroids could help to uncover fascinating information about...
An approach to enhance machine learning explanations
Researchers at IBM Research UK, the U.S. Military Academy and Cardiff University have recently proposed a new approach to improve the sensitivity of LIME (Local Interpretable Model Agnostic Explanations), a technique for attaining a better understanding ofthe...
An architecture to enable the collaborative coexistence of cognitive radio networks in TVWS
A team of researchers at Yale University, Virginia Tech, Temple University and Peking University has recently developed a new approach to enable the collaborative coexistence of cognitive radio (CR) networks over TV white space (TVWS). The term TVWS refers to unused...
This assistive robot is controlled via brain-computer interface
Researchers at the University of Cassino and Southern Lazio, in Italy, have recently developed a cutting-edge architecture that enables the operation of an assistive robot via a P300-based brain computer interface (BCI). This architecture, presented in a paper...
