For safe and effective operation of humanoid robots in human-populated environments, the problem of commanding a large number of Degrees of Freedom (DoF) while simultaneously considering dynamic obstacles and human proximity has still not been solved. We present a new reactive motion controller that commands two arms of a humanoid robot and three torso joints (17 DoF in total). We formulate a quadratic program that seeks joint velocity commands respecting multiple constraints while minimizing the magnitude of the velocities. We introduce a new unified treatment of obstacles that dynamically maps visual and proximity (pre-collision) and tactile (post-collision) obstacles as additional constraints to the motion controller, in a distributed fashion over surface of the upper-body of the iCub robot (with 2000 pressure-sensitive receptors). The bio-inspired controller: (i) produces human-like minimum jerk movement profiles; (ii) gives rise to a robot with whole-body visuo-tactile awareness, resembling peripersonal space representations. The controller was extensively experimentally validated, including a physical human-robot interaction scenario.

In the realm of machine learning, the data may contain additional attributes, known as privileged information (PI). The main purpose of PI is to assist in the training of the model and then utilize the acquired knowledge to make predictions for unseen samples. Support vector regression (SVR) is an effective regression model, however, it has a low learning speed due to solving a convex quadratic problem (QP) subject to a pair of constraints. In contrast, twin support vector regression (TSVR) is more efficient than SVR as it solves two QPs each subject to one set of constraints. However, TSVR and its variants are trained only on regular features and do not use privileged features for training. To fill this gap, we introduce a fusion of TSVR with learning using privileged information (LUPI) and propose a novel approach called twin support vector regression with privileged information (TSVR+). The regularization terms in the proposed TSVR+ capture the essence of statistical learning theory and implement the structural risk minimization principle. We use the successive overrelaxation (SOR) technique to solve the optimization problem of the proposed TSVR+, which enhances the training efficiency. As far as our knowledge extends, the integration of the LUPI concept into twin variants of regression models is a novel advancement. The numerical experiments conducted on UCI, stock and time series data collectively demonstrate the superiority of the proposed model.

Most often, virtual acoustic rendering employs real-time updated room acoustic simulations to accomplish auralization for a variable listener perspective. As an alternative, we propose and test a technique to interpolate room impulse responses, specifically Ambisonic room impulse responses (ARIRs) available at a grid of spatially distributed receiver perspectives, measured or simulated in a desired acoustic environment. In particular, we extrapolate a triplet of neighboring ARIRs to the variable listener perspective, preceding their linear interpolation. The extrapolation is achieved by decomposing each ARIR into localized sound events and re-assigning their direction, time, and level to what could be observed at the listener perspective, with as much temporal, directional, and perspective context as possible. We propose to undertake this decomposition in two levels: Peaks in the early ARIRs are decomposed into jointly localized sound events, based on time differences of arrival observed in either an ARIR triplet, or all ARIRs observing the direct sound. Sound events that could not be jointly localized are treated as residuals whose less precise localization utilizes direction-of-arrival detection and the estimated time of arrival. For the interpolated rendering, suitable parameter settings are found by evaluating the proposed method in a listening experiment, using both measured and simulated ARIR data sets, under static and time-varying conditions.

Due to the declining birthrate and aging population, the shortage of labor in the construction industry has become a serious problem, and increasing attention has been paid to automation of construction equipment. We focus on the automatic operation of articulated six-wheel dump trucks at construction sites. For the automatic operation of the dump trucks, it is important to estimate the position and the articulated angle of the dump trucks with high accuracy. In this study, we propose a method for estimating the state of a dump truck by using four global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs) installed on an articulated dump truck and a graph optimization method that utilizes the redundancy of multiple GNSSs. By adding real-time kinematic (RTK)-GNSS constraints and geometric constraints between the four antennas, the proposed method can robustly estimate the position and articulation angle even in environments where GNSS satellites are partially blocked. As a result of evaluating the accuracy of the proposed method through field tests, it was confirmed that the articulated angle could be estimated with an accuracy of 0.1$^\circ$ in an open-sky environment and 0.7$^\circ$ in a mountainous area simulating an elevation angle of 45$^\circ$ where GNSS satellites are blocked.

In this series of studies, we establish homogenized lattice Boltzmann methods (HLBM) for simulating fluid flow through porous media. Our contributions in part I are twofold. First, we assemble the targeted partial differential equation system by formally unifying the governing equations for nonstationary fluid flow in porous media. A matrix of regularly arranged, equally sized obstacles is placed into the domain to model fluid flow through porous structures governed by the incompressible nonstationary Navier--Stokes equations (NSE). Depending on the ratio of geometric parameters in the matrix arrangement, several homogenized equations are obtained. We review existing methods for homogenizing the nonstationary NSE for specific porosities and discuss the applicability of the resulting model equations. Consequently, the homogenized NSE are expressed as targeted partial differential equations that jointly incorporate the derived aspects. Second, we propose a kinetic model, the homogenized Bhatnagar--Gross--Krook Boltzmann equation, which approximates the homogenized nonstationary NSE. We formally prove that the zeroth and first order moments of the kinetic model provide solutions to the mass and momentum balance variables of the macrocopic model up to specific orders in the scaling parameter. Based on the present contributions, in the sequel (part II), the homogenized NSE are consistently approximated by deriving a limit consistent HLBM discretization of the homogenized Bhatnagar--Gross--Krook Boltzmann equation.

The brain projects require the collection of massive electrophysiological data, aiming to the longitudinal, sectional, or populational neuroscience studies. Quality metrics automatically label the data after centralized preprocessing. However, although the waveforms-based metrics are partially useful, they may be unreliable by neglecting the spectral profiles. Here, we detected the phenomenon of parallel log spectra (PaLOS) that the scalp EEG power in the log scale were parallel to each other from 10% of 2549 HBN EEG. This phenomenon was reproduced in 8% of 412 PMDT EEG from 4 databases. We designed the PaLOS index (PaLOSi) to indicate this phenomenon by decomposing the cross-spectra at different frequencies into the common principal component spaces. We found that the PaLOS biophysically implied a prominently dominant dipole in the source space which was implausible for the resting EEG. And it may be practically resulted from excessive preprocessing. Compared with the 1966 normative EEG cross-spectra, the HBN and the PMDT EEG with PaLOS presented generally much higher electrode pairwise coherences and higher similarity of coherence-based network patterns, which went against the known frequency dependent characteristic of coherence networks. We suggest the PaLOSi should lay in the range of 0.4-0.7 for large resting EEG quality assurance.

In this study, simultaneous predictive distributions for independent Poisson observables were considered and the performance of predictive distributions was evaluated using the Kullback-Leibler (K-L) loss. This study proposes a class of empirical Bayesian predictive distributions that dominate the Bayesian predictive distribution based on the Jeffreys prior. The K-L risk of the empirical Bayesian predictive distributions is demonstrated to be less than 1.04 times the minimax lower bound.

Robots operating in an open world will encounter novel objects with unknown physical properties, such as mass, friction, or size. These robots will need to sense these properties through interaction prior to performing downstream tasks with the objects. We propose a method that autonomously learns tactile exploration policies by developing a generative world model that is leveraged to 1) estimate the object's physical parameters using a differentiable Bayesian filtering algorithm and 2) develop an exploration policy using an information-gathering model predictive controller. We evaluate our method on three simulated tasks where the goal is to estimate a desired object property (mass, height or toppling height) through physical interaction. We find that our method is able to discover policies that efficiently gather information about the desired property in an intuitive manner. Finally, we validate our method on a real robot system for the height estimation task, where our method is able to successfully learn and execute an information-gathering policy from scratch.

Agricultural robotics and automation are facing some challenges rooted in the high variability 9 of products, task complexity, crop quality requirement, and dense vegetation. Such a set of 10 challenges demands a more versatile and safe robotic system. Soft robotics is a young yet 11 promising field of research aimed to enhance these aspects of current rigid robots which 12 makes it a good candidate solution for that challenge. In general, it aimed to provide robots 13 and machines with adaptive locomotion (Ansari et al., 2015), safe and adaptive manipulation 14 (Arleo et al., 2020) and versatile grasping (Langowski et al., 2020). But in agriculture, soft 15 robots have been mainly used in harvesting tasks and more specifically in grasping. In this 16 chapter, we review a candidate group of soft grippers that were used for handling and 17 harvesting crops regarding agricultural challenges i.e. safety in handling and adaptability to 18 the high variation of crops. The review is aimed to show why and to what extent soft grippers 19 have been successful in handling agricultural tasks. The analysis carried out on the results 20 provides future directions for the systematic design of soft robots in agricultural tasks.

Although measuring held-out accuracy has been the primary approach to evaluate generalization, it often overestimates the performance of NLP models, while alternative approaches for evaluating models either focus on individual tasks or on specific behaviors. Inspired by principles of behavioral testing in software engineering, we introduce CheckList, a task-agnostic methodology for testing NLP models. CheckList includes a matrix of general linguistic capabilities and test types that facilitate comprehensive test ideation, as well as a software tool to generate a large and diverse number of test cases quickly. We illustrate the utility of CheckList with tests for three tasks, identifying critical failures in both commercial and state-of-art models. In a user study, a team responsible for a commercial sentiment analysis model found new and actionable bugs in an extensively tested model. In another user study, NLP practitioners with CheckList created twice as many tests, and found almost three times as many bugs as users without it.
