Proceedings of the first workshop on Peripheral Machine Interfaces: going beyond traditional surface electromyography

One of the hottest topics in rehabilitation robotics is that of proper control of prosthetic devices. Despite decades of research, the state of the art is dramatically behind the expectations. To shed light on this issue, in June, 2013 the first international workshop on Present and future of non-invasive peripheral nervous system (PNS)-Machine Interfaces (MI; PMI) was convened, hosted by the I...

ADAM: ADaptive Autonomous Machine - Advanced Mobile Robot, 1996., Proceedings of the First Euromicro Workshop on

This paper describes a part of the development of an adaptive autonomous machine that is able to move in an unknown world, extract knowledge out of the perceived data, has the possibility to reason, and finally has the capability to exchange experiences and knowledge with other agents. The agent is not pre-programmed by its designer but was given simple rules of l$e i.e. what is

Visopt ShopFloor: Going Beyond Traditional Scheduling

Visopt ShopFloor is a generic scheduling system for solving complex scheduling problems. It differentiates from traditional schedulers by offering some planning capabilities. In particular, the activities to achieve the goal are planned dynamically during scheduling. In the paper, we give a motivation for the integration of planning and scheduling and we describe how such integration is realise...

The First Workshop on Neural Machine Translation

Recently, the attention mechanism plays a key role to achieve high performance for Neural Machine Translation models. However, as it computes a score function for the encoder states in all positions at each decoding step, the attention model greatly increases the computational complexity. In this paper, we investigate the adequate vision span of attention models in the context of machine transl...
