Fish actively control their bodies to interact with the surrounding vortex flow field and generate thrust. Current research on the propulsion mechanisms of robotic fish primarily involves qualitative comparisons of vortex structures from simulations and experiments, lacking quantitative analysis. Th
Reliable scene understanding requires not only accurate predictions but also well-calibrated confidence estimates to ensure calibrated uncertainty estimation, especially in safety-critical domains like autonomous driving. In this context, semantic segmentation of LiDAR points supports real-time 3D s…
In this letter, we address the challenge of constructing continuous 3D models that accurately represent uncertain surfaces, derived from noisy LiDAR data. Building upon our prior work, which utilized the Gaussian Process (GP) and Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) for structured building models, we introd
The high speed and low energy cost are two conflicting objectives in the motion optimization of bio-inspired underwater robots, but playing a very important role. To this end, this paper proposes an optimization strategy for swimming speed and power cost using an improved NSGA-II for a flexible robo…
Mapping with uncertainty representation is required in many research domains, especially for localization. Although there are many investigations regarding the uncertainty of the pose estimation of an ego-robot with map information, the quality of the reference maps is often neglected. To avoid pote
The complex and continuous undulation of fishtail facilitates extraordinary underwater motion performance for natural fish. For the widely used Multi-Joint robotic fish, a lot of joints are used to simulate continuum fishtail, resulting in some challenges, e.g., the mechanism complexity, friction lo
