DOI: 10.1080/00038628.2019.1651688

Abstract: ABSTRACT In architectural design, crafts are often portrayed as a source of ornamental, figurative or historical inspiration. In this paper, instead, craft is framed as an open-ended process of making and material negotiations, involving material… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/lra.2024.3433207

Abstract: This letter presents and evaluates a novel strategy for robotic exploration that leverages human models of uncertainty perception. To do this, we introduce a measure of uncertainty that we term “Behavioral entropy”, which builds on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/lra.2025.3622906

Abstract: Autonomous exploration in large-scale, unknown environments remains a significant challenge in mobile robotics. In this letter, we propose a scalable exploration framework that integrates heterogeneous topological representations, lightweight global-local graph reasoning, and reinforcement learning. Our… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/life8040061

Abstract: The acidic sulfate-rich waters of the Meridiani Planum region were potentially a habitable environment for iron-oxidizing bacteria on ancient Mars. If life existed in this ancient martian environment, jarosite minerals precipitating in these waters may… read more here.
