Design and Analysis of a Bi-directional Transformable Wheel Robot Trimode

IROS 2021poster

This article presents a novel transformable wheeled robot with three motion modes. Based on the four-bar mechanism design, the transformable wheel can transform into CW (clockwise) legged wheel mode and CCW (counterclock-wise) legged wheel mode from the circular wheel. Both legged wheel modes achiev…

Multi-Task Dense Retrieval via Model Uncertainty Fusion for Open-Domain Question Answering

EMNLP 2021finding

Multi-task dense retrieval models can be used to retrieve documents from a common corpus (e.g., Wikipedia) for different open-domain question-answering (QA) tasks. However, Karpukhin et al. (2020) shows that jointly learning different QA tasks with one dense model is not always beneficial due to cor…

Segatron: Segment-Aware Transformer for Language Modeling and Understanding

AAAI 2021technical

Transformers are powerful for sequence modeling. Nearly all state-of-the-art language models and pre-trained language models are based on the Transformer architecture. However, it distinguishes sequential tokens only with the token position index. We hypothesize that better contextual representation…
