Soft robotic systems heavily depend on accurate sensor data for perception and control; however, this data is often corrupted by missing observations, due to partial sensor coverage, communication failures, or occlusions and noisy measurements stemming from hardware imperfections, environmental dist
Recently, data-driven models such as deep neural networks have shown to be promising tools for modelling and state inference in soft robots. However, voluminous amounts of data are necessary for deep models to perform effectively, which requires exhaustive and quality data collection, particularly o…
Aerial grasping empowers unmanned aerial vehicles to find applications beyond structured logistics. However, it brings a number of challenges including inaccurate positioning of the end effector and limited energy sources. Moreover, solutions so far have difficulty in handling a variety of objects.
The mechanical compliance of soft robots comes at a cost of higher uncertainty in their sensing and perception, which deteriorates the accuracy of predictive models. Predictive uncertainty, which expresses the confidence behind model predictions, is necessary to compensate for the loss of accuracy i
