This paper proposes strategies for the driving and egress of a vehicle with a humanoid robot. To drive the vehicle, the RANSAC method was used to detect obstacles, and the Wagon model was used to control the steering and velocity of the vehicle with only a limited number of sensors which were installed on the humanoid robot. Additionally, a manual teleoperating method was used with the lane projection technique. For the egress motion, gain override and the Cartesian position/force control technique were used to interact with the vehicle structure. To overcome the disadvantages of a highly geared manipulator, a special technique was used that included modelled friction compensation and a non-complementary switching mode. DRC-HUBO+ used the proposed method to perform a vehicle driving and egress task in the DRC finals 2015.
As a fundamental problem of wireless sensor networks, the minimal exposure path problem corresponding to the sensor network's worst-case coverage plays an important role in the applications for detecting intrusion...

The mirror neuron system (MNS) in humans is thought to enable an individual's understanding of the meaning of actions performed by others and the potential imitation and learning of those actions. In humans, electroencephalographic (EEG) changes in sensorimotor a-band at central electrodes, which desynchronizes both during execution and observation of goal-directed actions (i.e., μ suppression), have been considered an analog to MNS function. However, methodological and developmental issues, as well as the nature of generalized μ suppression to imagined, observed, and performed actions, have yet to provide a mechanistic relationship between EEG μ-rhythm and MNS function, and the extent to which EEG can be used to infer intent during MNS tasks remains unknown. In this study we present a novel methodology using active EEG and inertial sensors to record brain activity and behavioral actions from freely-behaving infants during exploration, imitation, attentive rest, pointing, reaching and grasping, and interaction with an actor. We used δ-band (1-4Hz) EEG as input to a dimensionality reduction algorithm (locality-preserving Fisher's discriminant analysis, LFDA) followed by a neural classifier (Gaussian mixture models, GMMs) to decode the each MNS task performed by freely-behaving 6-24 month old infants during interaction with an adult actor. Here, we present results from a 20-month male infant to illustrate our approach and show the feasibility of EEG-based classification of freely occurring MNS behaviors displayed by an infant. These results, which provide an alternative to the μ-rhythm theory of MNS function, indicate the informative nature of EEG in relation to intentionality (goal) for MNS tasks which may support action-understanding and thus bear implications for advancing the understanding of MNS function.

The state estimators used in real-time power system control centers now process bad data as a standard routine. With the introduction and deployment of phasor measurement units (PMUs), it is possible to model power systems, even with their time-varying nature, in real-time. However, PMUs remain vulnerable to providing bad data for several reasons. In this paper, a new intelligent framework, the cellular computational netwo rk (CCN), is introduced for the decentralized predictive modeling and dynamic state estimation (DSE) of a power system with PMU data. The CCN-based DSE is resilient to interactions between multiple segments of bad data from one or more PMUs.
