Most theories of behavior posit that agents tend to maximize some form of reward or utility.
However, animals very often move with curiosity and seem to be motivated in a reward-free …

The field of robotics has grown exponentially over the years, especially the social aspect,
which has enabled robots to interact with humans meaningfully. Robots are now used in …

While the demand for new high-tech technologies is rapidly increasing, difficulties are
presented, such as aging and population decline in rural areas. In particular, autonomous …

This paper tackles the problem of nonprehensile object transportation through a legged
manipulator. A whole-body control architecture is devised to prevent sliding of the object …

This paper describes the design and development of a cleaning robot, using adaptive
manufacturing technology and its use with a control algorithm for which there is a stability …

The field of robotics has grown exponentially over the years, especially the social aspect has
been given a lot of attention. Although there is a significant amount of research on robots …

Robot vacuum cleaners are among the first service robots to enter daily life. However, robot
vacuum cleaners are currently inaccessible to many due to their high cost. In order for these …

An intuitionistic fuzzy rough model is a powerful tool for dealing with complex uncertainty
and imprecision in graph-based models, combining the strengths of intuitionistic fuzzy sets …

Lithium-rich layered oxide materials (Li-NMC) are considered a potential cathode material
for next-generation batteries, thanks to their high theoretical specific capacity. Large …

The paper mainly describes the design and stimulation of an autonomous robot for floor
vacuum cleaning, wet mopping and an optional UV sterilization in the absence of the …
