With the substantial growth of logistics businesses the need for larger warehouses and their automation arises, thus using robots as assistants to human workers is becoming a priority. In order to operate efficiently and safely, robot assistants or the supervising system should recognize human intentions in real-time. Theory of mind (ToM) is an intuitive human conception of other humans' mental state, i.e., beliefs and desires, and how they cause behavior. In this paper we propose a ToM based human intention estimation algorithm for flexible robotized warehouses. We observe human's, i.e., worker's motion and validate it with respect to the goal locations using generalized Voronoi diagram based path planning. These observations are then processed by the proposed hidden Markov model framework which estimates worker intentions in an online manner, capable of handling changing environments. To test the proposed intention estimation we ran experiments in a real-world laboratory warehouse with a worker wearing Microsoft Hololens augmented reality glasses. Furthermore, in order to demonstrate the scalability of the approach to larger warehouses, we propose to use virtual reality digital warehouse twins in order to realistically simulate worker behavior. We conducted intention estimation experiments in the larger warehouse digital twin with up to 24 running robots. We demonstrate that the proposed framework estimates warehouse worker intentions precisely and in the end we discuss the experimental results. Copyright © 2018, The Authors. All rights reserved.

Aerial robotics has reached significant maturity in the last few years. Thus, the number of new unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and unmanned aerial systems (UAS), applications, and companies producing them has increased in a very important way. The number of publications and presentations in conferences has also experienced a large increase. Moreover, almost every day we can find articles, videos, and news in the general media related to drones. © Springer International Publishing AG 2018.

The cultivation of Escherichia coli bacteria is widely used by geneticists and biopharmaceuticals to produce medicines and vaccines. In such industries, Bioprocesses are known by their harsh environment and very expensive physical sensors. This paper deals with nonlinear estimation and control of fed-batch Escherichia coli bioprocess. Enhancing the process performance and maximizing its efficiency by optimizing the control of Escherichia coli cultures depends on the availability of appropriate online sensors for the main culture components. In this study, an innovative method for nonlinear estimation and control of bioprocesses is designed and assessed. The new algorithm for control and estimation of Escherichia coli bioprocess states, based on the State-Dependent Riccati Equation technique, is validated by numerical simulation. The results obtained clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique for Biosystems in measuring, monitoring, and control of their natural nonlinear dynamics. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2017.

Uniform complete observability and controllability are key concepts for the design of state observers and controllers for linear time-varying systems. While the definitions of these properties are simple, it is more often that not very difficult to show they hold for a particular system. This paper presents alternative simpler sufficient conditions. Examples are shown that illustrate the improvement over previous results, the fact that the new conditions are not necessary, and a practical application. © 2017

Body weight support (BWS) is a fundamental technique in rehabilitation. Along with the dramatic progressing of rehabilitation science and engineering, BWS is quickly evolving with new initiatives and has attracted deep research effort in recent years. We have built up a novel gravity offloading system, in which the patient is allowed to move freely in the three-dimensional Cartesian space and receives support against gravity. Thus, the patients, especially for those that suffer from neurological injury such as stroke or spinal cord injury, can focus their residual motor control capabilities on essential therapeutic trainings of balance and gait. The realtime force control performance is critical for the BWS unit to provide suitable support and avoid disturbance. In this work, we have re-designed our BWS unit with a series elastic actuation structure to improve the human-robot interaction performance. Further, the 2 degrees of freedom (2-DOF) control approach was taken for accurate and robust BWS force control. Both simulation and experimental results have validated the efficacy of the BWS design and real-time control methods. Copyright © 2018, The Authors. All rights reserved.

We present a novel gripper design for autonomous aerial transport of ferrous objects with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The proposed design uses permanent magnets for grasping, and a novel dual-impulsive release mechanism, for achieving drop. The gripper can simultaneously lift up to four objects of arbitrary shape, in fully autonomous mode, with a 100% rate of successful drops. We optimize the system subject to realistic constraints, such as the simplicity of design and its sturdiness to aerial maneuvers, payload limits for multi-rotor UAVs, reliability of autonomous grasping irrespective of the environment of operation, active power consumption of the gripper, and its comparison with the existing technologies. We describe the design concepts, and the hardware, and perform extensive experiments in both indoor and outdoor environments, with two multi-rotor configurations. Several results, showcasing superior performance of the proposed system are provided as well.

An ability to map seizure-generating brain tissue, i.e., the seizure onset zone (SOZ), without recording actual seizures could reduce the duration of invasive EEG monitoring for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. A widely-adopted practice in the literature is to compare the incidence (events/time) of putative pathological electrophysiological biomarkers associated with epileptic brain tissue with the SOZ determined from spontaneous seizures recorded with intracranial EEG, primarily using a single biomarker. Clinical translation of the previous efforts suffers from their inability to generalize across multiple patients because of (a) the inter-patient variability and (b) the temporal variability in the epileptogenic activity. Here, we report an artificial intelligence-based approach for combining multiple interictal electrophysiological biomarkers and their temporal characteristics as a way of accounting for the above barriers and show that it can reliably identify seizure onset zones in a study cohort of 82 patients who underwent evaluation for drug-resistant epilepsy. Our investigation provides evidence that utilizing the complementary information provided by multiple electrophysiological biomarkers and their temporal characteristics can significantly improve the localization potential compared to previously published single-biomarker incidence-based approaches, resulting in an average area under ROC curve (AUC) value of 0.73 in a cohort of 82 patients. Our results also suggest that recording durations between ninety minutes and two hours are sufficient to localize SOZs with accuracies that may prove clinically relevant. The successful validation of our approach on a large cohort of 82 patients warrants future investigation on the feasibility of utilizing intra-operative EEG monitoring and artificial intelligence to localize epileptogenic brain tissue. Broadly, our study demonstrates the use of artificial intelligence coupled with careful feature engineering in
