While recent advances in Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology produce natural and expressive speech, they lack the option for users to select emotion and control intensity. We propose EmoKnob, a framework that allows fine-grained emotion control…
In this paper, we propose the use of a modeling methodology based on the notion of thing, with a focus on the current stage of research being on the analysis phase of software system modeling. The object-oriented approach, which takes the…
ICE-Talk is an open source web-based GUI that allows the use of a TTS system with controllable parameters via a text field and a clickable 2D plot. It enables the study of latent spaces for controllable TTS. Moreover it is implemented as a…
The intelligent robotics community usually organizes knowledge into symbolic and sub-symbolic levels. These two levels establish the set of symbols and rules for manipulating knowledge based on their (symbol system - dictionary). Thus, the…
This thesis explores the teleo-reactive programming paradigm for controlling autonomous agents, such as robots. Teleo-reactive programming provides a robust, opportunistic method for goal-directed programming that continuously reacts to the…
Bibliometric studies have become increasingly important in evaluating individual scientists, specific facilities, and entire observatories. In this context, the ESO Library has developed and maintains two tools: FUSE, a full-text search…
This article proposes a method to formalise models of cognitive processes grounded in experience, considering experience from the perspective of a living system and not from that of an observer of the living system. The perspective of a…
We suggest a new web-based approach for browsing and visualizing data produced by a network of telescopes, such as those of the ongoing TAOS and the forthcoming TAOS II projects. We propose a modern client-side technology and we present two…
Tactile sensing is essential for robots to achieve human-like gentle manipulation. However, existing Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models struggle to exploit tactile feedback for gentle manipulation due to scarce aligned…
The paper is concerned with the issue of how software systems actually use Heterogeneous Parallel Architectures (HPAs), with the goal of optimizing power consumption on these resources. It argues the need for novel methods and tools to…
This paper presents ongoing research in our project software engineering with process algebra. In this project we have developed among others a reimplementation of the simulator from the PSF Toolkit, a set of tools for the Process…
Knowledge representation and reasoning capacities are vital to cognitive robotics because they provide higher level cognitive functions for reasoning about actions, environments, goals, perception, etc. Although Answer Set Programming (ASP)…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated excellent capabilities in composing various modules together to create programs that can perform complex reasoning tasks on images. In this paper, we propose TANGO, an approach that extends the…
There are many application fields for robotic systems including service robotics, search and rescue missions, industry and space robotics. As the scenarios in these areas grow more and more complex, there is a high demand for powerful tools…
This paper describes ROBOTIKANDO, a web application for supporting both kindergarten teachers in planning educational robotics activities and educational robotics experts who would like to share their knowledge and experience. ROBOTIKANDO…
We describe a framework and tool specification that represents a step towards cybersecurity testing and monitoring of IoT ecosystems. We begin with challenges from a previous paper and discuss an integrated approach and tools to enable…
Grasping objects by a specific part is often crucial for safety and for executing downstream tasks. Yet, learning-based grasp planners lack this behavior unless they are trained on specific object part data, making it a significant…
The Herzberg Extensible Adaptive optics Real-Time Toolkit (HEART) is a complete framework written in C and Python for building next-generation adaptive optics (AO) system real-time controllers, with the performance needed for extremely…
The new Data Acquisition system for the gravitational wave detector AURIGA has been designed from the ground up in order to take advantage of hardware and software platforms that became available in recent years; namely, i386 computers…
Control theory is an important cornerstone of the robotics field and is considered a fundamental subject in an undergraduate and postgraduate robotics curriculum. Furthermore, project-based learning has shown significant benefits in…
