Abstract: Work over the past 20 years has demonstrated a gravity bias in toddlers; when an object is dropped into a curved tube, they will frequently search at a point immediately beneath the entry of the… read more here.

Abstract: Weight prediction is critical for dexterous object manipulation. Previous work has focused on lifting objects presented in isolation and has examined how the visual appearance of an object is used to predict its weight. Here… read more here.

Abstract: Electromyography (EMG) is a simple, non-invasive, and cost-effective technology for measuring muscle activity. However, multi-muscle EMG is also a noisy, complex, and high-dimensional signal. It has nevertheless been widely used in a host of human-machine-interface… read more here.
