When it comes to training robots to perform agile, single-task motor skills, such as handstands or backflips, artificial intelligence methods can be very useful. But if you want to train your robot to ...

Differential equations and systems analysis. Undergraduate controls and/or signal processing course would satisfy this requirement. A graduate-level systems course is also helpful, but not necessary.

The motor system can be considered at three levels: motor behaviour, limb mechanics and neural control. Although our understanding at each level continues to grow, linking these levels into a cohesive ...

Dynamic Programming and Optimal Control is offered within DMAVT and attracts in excess of 300 students per year from a wide variety of disciplines. It is an integral part of the Robotics, System and ...

In this paper we consider infinite horizon discrete-time optimal control of Markov decision processes (MDPs) with finite state spaces and compact action sets. We restrict attention to unicost MDPs, ...

Launch control systems have become a staple in modern performance cars, transforming the driving experience by optimizing ...
