DQT: Dynamic Quantization Training via Dequantization-Free Nested Integer Arithmetic

AAAI 2026technical

The deployment of deep neural networks on resource-constrained devices relies on quantization. While static, uniform quantization applies a fixed bit-width to all inputs, it fails to adapt to their varying complexity. Dynamic, instance-based mixed-precision quantization promises a superior accuracy-

Tactile Classification of Object Materials for Virtual Reality based Robot Teleoperation

ICRA 2022poster

This work presents a method for tactile classification of materials for virtual reality (VR) based robot teleoperation. In our system, a human-operator uses a remotely controlled robot-manipulator with an optical fibre-based tactile and proximity sensor to scan surfaces of objects in a remote enviro…

Implementing Tactile and Proximity Sensing for Crack Detection

ICRA 2020poster

Remote characterisation of the environment during physical robot-environment interaction is an important task commonly accomplished in telerobotics. This paper demonstrates how tactile and proximity sensing can be efficiently used to perform automatic crack detection. A custom-designed integrated ta…
