This paper presents a study on the use of impedance-based control of a 6-degree-of-freedom robot for upper-limb rehabilitation of patients with neuromotor deficits. The control strategy is based on impedance and does not require external force sensor...
A data-driven approach using artificial neural networks is proposed to address the classic inverse area function problem, i.e., to determine the vocal tract geometry (modelled as a tube of nonuniform cylindrical cross-sections) from the vocal tract a...
Realistic sound is essential in virtual environments, such as computer games and mixed reality. Efficient and accurate numerical methods for pre-calculating acoustics have been developed over the last decade; however, pre-calculating acoustics makes ...
