Continuous Trajectory Optimization via B-splines for Multi-jointed Robotic Systems

Kavli Affiliate: Ting Xu | First 5 Authors: Changhao Wang, Ting Xu, Masayoshi Tomizuka, , | Summary: Continuous formulations of trajectory planning problems have two main benefits. First, constraints are guaranteed to be satisfied at all times. Secondly, dynamic obstacles can be naturally considered with time. This paper introduces a novel B-spline based trajectory optimization […]

Cellular and Fibrillar Collagen Analyses in an Animal Model of Retinal Detachment-Related Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy Reveals a Defined Transition to Chronic Fibrosis

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Blackshaw | Authors: Cornelia Peterson, Clayton P. Santiago, Yuchen Lu, Antoinette Price, Minda M. McNally, William Schubert, Seth Blackshaw, Charles G. Eberhart and Mandeep S. Singh | Summary: SUMMARY Purpose Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) is the most common cause of failure of surgically repaired rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Chemically-induced and cell-injection PVR models […]

Neural circuit-wide analysis of gene expression during deafening-induced destabilization of birdsong

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Brainard | Authors: Bradley M Colquitt, Kelly Li, Foad Green, Robert J Veline and Michael S Brainard | Summary: SUMMARY Sensory feedback is required for stable execution of learned motor skills, and its loss can severely disrupt motor performance. The neural mechanisms that mediate sensorimotor stability have been extensively studied at systems […]

Interactive auditory task reveals complex sensory-action integration in mouse primary auditory cortex

Kavli Affiliate: Patrick Kanold | Authors: Ji Liu and Patrick O Kanold | Summary: SUMMARY Predictive coding theory postulates that the brain achieves perception by actively making predictions about the incoming sensory information and correcting them if errors signals arise. These signals are likely the most relevant when the individual is actively interacting with the […]

Global well-posedness for radial extremal hypersurface equation in $left(1+3 right)$-dimensional Minkowski space-time in critical Sobolev space

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Sheng Wang, Yi Zhou, , , | Summary: In this article, we prove the global well-posedness in the critical Sobolev space $H_{rad}^2left(mathbb{R}^2right) times H_{rad}^1 left(mathbb{R}^2right)$ for the radial time-like extremal hypersurface equation in $left(1+3right)$- dimensional Minkowski space-time. This is achieved by deriving a new div-curl type lemma […]
