Robust dynamic symbol recognition : the ClockSketch classifier
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)I present an automatic classifier for the digitized clock drawing test, a neurological diagnostic exam used to assess patients' mental acuity by having them draw an analog clock face using a digitizing pen. This classifier ... -
Robust end effecter for the introduction to Robotics Laboratory robotic arms
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)In the MIT ci ss Introduction to Robotics, a two link robotic arm is used to learn about robots however, the arm is limited since its only function is movement. In order to create a more meaningful and useful experience ... -
Robust end-to-end learning for autonomous vehicles
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Deep learning has been successfully applied to "end-to-end" learning of the autonomous driving task, where a deep neural network learns to predict steering control commands from camera data input. While these works support ... -
Robust estimation and failure detection for linear systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Robust estimation and failure detection for reentry vehicle attitude control systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
Robust estimation, regression and ranking with applications in portfolio optimization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Classical methods of maximum likelihood and least squares rely a great deal on the correctness of the model assumptions. Since these assumptions are only approximations of reality, many robust statistical methods have been ... -
Robust estimator design using the H[infinity] norm and [mu] synthesis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1991) -
Robust evaluation of differential geometry properties using interval arithmetic techniques
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This thesis presents a robust method for evaluating differential geometry properties of sculptured surfaces by using a validated ordinary differential equation (ODE) system solver based on interval arithmetic. Iso-contouring ... -
Robust execution for stochastic hybrid systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Unmanned systems, such as Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), planetary rovers and space probes, have enormous potential in areas such as reconnaissance and space exploration. However the effectiveness and robustness ... -
Robust execution of bipedal walking tasks from biomechanical principles
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Effective use of robots in unstructured environments requires that they have sufficient autonomy and agility to execute task-level commands successfully. A challenging example of such a robot is a bipedal walking machine. ... -
Robust Flight Navigation with Liquid Neural Networks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-05)Autonomous robots can learn to perform visual navigation tasks from offline human demonstrations, and generalize well to online and unseen scenarios within the same environment they have been trained on. It is fundamentally ... -
A robust flight-based archival system for the aircraft situational display to industry (ASDI)
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001) -
Robust fluid control of multiclass queueing networks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This thesis applies recent advances in the field of robust optimization to the optimal control of multiclass queueing networks. We develop models that take into account the uncertainty of interarrival and service time in ... -
Robust genome editing with broad-targeting CRISPR enzymes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Programmable CRISPR enzymes are powerful and versatile tools for genome editing. They, however, require a specific protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) flanking the target site, which constrains the accessible sequence space ... -
Robust H[infinity] control via quadratic stabilization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994) -
Robust human motion prediction for safe and efficient human-robot interaction
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)From robotic co-workers in factories to assistive robots in homes, human-robot interaction (HRI) has the potential to revolutionize a large array of domains by enabling robotic assistance where it was previously not possible. ... -
Robust hybrid control for autonomous vehicle motion planning
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)This dissertation focuses on the problem of motion planning for agile autonomous vehicles. In realistic situations, the motion planning problem must be solved in real-time, in a dynamic and uncertain environment. The ... -
