This paper describes a new statistical, model-based approach to building a contact state observer. The observer uses measurements of the contact force and position, and prior information about the task encoded in a graph, to determine the current location of…

The central thesis of this report is that human language is NP-complete. That is, the process of comprehending and producing utterances is bounded above by the class NP, and below by NP-hardness. This constructive complexity thesis has two empirical consequences.…

This paper presents an adaptive learning model for market-making under the reinforcement learning framework. Reinforcement learning is a learning technique in which agents aim to maximize the long-term accumulated rewards. No knowledge of the market environment, such as the order…

We have developed a technique called RISE (Random Image Structure Evolution), by which one may systematically sample continuous paths in a high-dimensional image space. A basic RISE sequence depicts the evolution of an object's image from a random field, along…

Dynamic systems which undergo rapid motion can excite natural frequencies that lead to residual vibration at the end of motion. This work presents a method to shape force profiles that reduce excitation energy at the natural frequencies in order to…

If we are to understand how we can build machines capable of broad purpose learning and reasoning, we must first aim to build systems that can represent, acquire, and reason about the kinds of commonsense knowledge that we humans have…

La presente propuesta explica cómo el estudio de la historia local de un pueblo,
San José de Bolívar en el estado Táchira, puede servir de estrategia didáctica
no solo para afianzar la identidad cultural del estudiante de educación
primaria en…

Descripción completa.

Hasta la fecha, el conocimiento tecnológico ha estado diluido en los conocimientos generales que brinda la escuela, y lo fundamental se adquiere informalmente en las actividades de la vida cotidiana. La Educación en Tecnología es un saber que permite la…
