In audiovisual automatic speech recognition (AV-ASR) systems, information fusion of visual features in a pre-trained ASR has been proven as a promising method to improve noise robustness. In this work, based on the prominent Whisper ASR, first, we propose a simple and effective visual fusion method…
Specialized robots, such as legged robots and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), are commonly regarded as effective platforms for aiding in search and rescue (SAR) missions. However, existing approaches often decouple the tasks between UAVs and legged robots, for instance, using UAVs for mapping and l
This paper presents an intraoperatively iterative Hough transform (IHT) based in-plane hybrid control of extracorporeal ultrasound (US) guided magnetic catheterization for arterial intervention. One uniqueness lies in that both control and tracking of the arterial robotic ultrasound end-effector hav…
Bioprinting is a promising fabrication technique to create medical devices for the human body in vivo or in vitro. However, the existing in-vivo bioprinting methods impose various prerequisites, such as a large incision on the human skin, to make the printing nozzle close to internal organs. Herein,
This paper presents the design of a new multi-arm robotic system with mobile magnetic actuation and extracorpo-real ultrasound guidance dedicated to magnetic catheterization. The kinematic model of the external mobile actuation arm (EMAA) and extracorporeal ultrasound-integrated tracking arm (EUTA)…
Non-geometric hazards like sinkage and slipping, correlated to terrain categories, have an apparent effect on the locomotion of legged robots. Tactile-based terrain classification is a more accurate way to distinguish terrains in different properties than the vision, but selecting representative fea
