Adapting Everyday Manipulation Skills to Varied Scenarios
We address the problem of executing tool-using manipulation skills in scenarios where the objects to be used may vary. We assume that point clouds of the tool and target object can be obtained, but no interpretation or further knowledge about these objects is provided. The system must interpret the point clouds and decide how to use the tool to complete a manipulation task with a target object;...
متن کاملLinking drought research to water resource management actions
A multivariate, principal-component based index has been developed to quantify the severity of droughts. Named the Aggregate Drought Index (ADI), it describes the meteorological, hydrological, and agricultural aspects of drought on a climate-divisional basis, using fluctuations in the values of five variables associated with the hydrologic cycle and available water: precipitation, evaporation, ...
متن کاملDeclaring Drought for Effective Water Management
Water managers are tasked with resolving conflicts between freshwater resource uses, which range from municipal water supply, to recreation, and to sustaining aquatic ecosystem integrity. Further complicating management, hydrologic processes experience numerous sources of periodic, quasi-periodic, and episodic variation. Water allocation trade offs are often most complex and contentious when av...
متن کاملAdapting to Drought from Sustainability Dimensions in Nomads via Factor Explaining
This purpose of this research is to explain adaptation with drought from sustainabilitydimensions in nomadic societies. A questionnaire was developed from a review of literature,observations and open and semi-structural interviews with public and informant Nomads,local leaders and with experts from the local and provincial institutions. Prior to theapplication of factor analysis, two internal r...
متن کاملFuture water quality monitoring--adapting tools to deal with mixtures of pollutants in water resource management.
Environmental quality monitoring of water resources is challenged with providing the basis for safeguarding the environment against adverse biological effects of anthropogenic chemical contamination from diffuse and point sources. While current regulatory efforts focus on monitoring and assessing a few legacy chemicals, many more anthropogenic chemicals can be detected simultaneously in our aqu...
