Big Data applications suffer from unpredictable and unacceptably high pause times due to Garbage Collection (GC). This is the case in latency-sensitive applications such as on-line credit-card fraud detection, graph-based computing for…
We examine an important combinatorial challenge in clearing clutter using a mobile robot equipped with a manipulator, seeking to compute an optimal object removal sequence for minimizing the task completion time, assuming that each object…
With a single eye fixation lasting a fraction of a second, the human visual system is capable of forming a rich representation of a complex environment, reaching a holistic understanding which facilitates object recognition and detection.…
We consider the problem of sorting a densely cluttered pile of unknown objects using a robot. This yet unsolved problem is relevant in the robotic waste sorting business. By extending previous active learning approaches to grasping, we show…
In modern server computing, efficient CPU resource usage is often traded for latency. Garbage collection is a key aspect of memory management in programming languages like Java, but it often competes with application threads for CPU time,…
A widespread practice to implement a flexible array is to consider the storage area into two parts: the used area, which is already available for read/write operations, and the supply area, which is used in case of enlargement of the array.…
Instance segmentation with unseen objects is a challenging problem in unstructured environments. To solve this problem, we propose a robot learning approach to actively interact with novel objects and collect each object's training label…
Robotic-based compact storage and retrieval systems provide high-density storage in distribution center and warehouse applications. In the system, items are stored in bins, and the bins are organized inside a three-dimensional grid. Robots…
When robots retrieve specific objects from cluttered scenes, such as home and warehouse environments, the target objects are often partially occluded or completely hidden. Robots are thus required to search, identify a target object, and…
This paper presents a proposal (story) of how statically detecting unreachable objects (in Java) could be used to improve a particular runtime verification approach (for Java), namely parametric trace slicing. Monitoring algorithms for…
Food waste management is critical for sustainability, yet inorganic contaminants hinder recycling potential. Robotic automation accelerates sorting through automated contaminant removal. Nevertheless, the diverse and unpredictable nature of…
We describe an efficient and fault-tolerant algorithm for distributed cyclic garbage collection. The algorithm imposes few requirements on the local machines and allows for flexibility in the choice of local collector and distributed…
We use static object data to improve success detection for stacking objects on and nesting objects in one another. Such actions are necessary for certain robotics tasks, e.g., clearing a dining table or packing a warehouse bin. However,…
Machine learning models (mainly neural networks) are used more and more in real life. Users feed their data to the model for training. But these processes are often one-way. Once trained, the model remembers the data. Even when data is…
We tackle the problem of object detection and pose estimation in a shared space downtown environment. For perception multiple laser scanners with 360{\deg} coverage were fused in a dynamic occupancy grid map (DOGMa). A single-stage deep…
A human hand can grasp a desired number of objects at once from a pile based solely on tactile sensing. To do so, a robot needs to grasp within a pile, sense the number of objects in the grasp before lifting, and predict the number of…
The growing concern for energy efficiency in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector has prompted the exploration of resource management techniques. While hardware architectures, such as single-ISA asymmetric multicore…
In this paper we consider methods for dynamically storing a set of different objects ("modules") in a physical array. Each module requires one free contiguous subinterval in order to be placed. Items are inserted or removed, resulting in a…
Accurate waste disposal, at the point of disposal, is crucial to fighting climate change. When materials that could be recycled or composted get diverted into landfills, they cause the emission of potent greenhouse gases such as methane.…
Segregation of garbage is a primary concern in many nations across the world. Even though we are in the modern era, many people still do not know how to distinguish between organic and recyclable waste. It is because of this that the world…
