Learning by imitation has shown to be a powerful paradigm for automated learning in autonomous robots. This paper presents a general framework of learning by imitation for stochas...
The kinematic analysis of a spherical wrist with parallel architecture is the object of this article. This study is part of a larger French project, which aims to design and to bu...
Abstract. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that the techniques of Computer Aided Geometric Design such as spatial rational curves and surfaces could be applied to Kinematics...
