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 […]

Resolving non-perturbative renormalization of a microwave-dressed weakly anharmonic superconducting qubit

Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Byoung-moo Ann, Sercan Deve, Gary A. Steele, , | Summary: Microwave driving is a ubiquitous technique for superconducting qubits (SCQs), but the dressed states description based on the conventionally used perturbation theory cannot fully capture the dynamics in the strong driving limit. Comprehensive studies beyond these […]
