We focus on grasp planning for a humanoid multi-fingered hand attached at the tip of a humanoid robot’s arm. The hand has potential possibility to grasp various objects under several situations. Since the multi-fingered hand can use several grasp types such as fingertip grasp, and envelope grasp with taking the advantage of degrees of freedom. We develop grasp planner which selects a feasible g...

Machine vision-based planar grasping detection is challenging due to uncertainty about object shape, pose, size, etc. Previous methods mostly focus on predicting discrete gripper configurations, and may miss some ground-truth grasp postures. In this article, a pixel-level method proposed, which uses deep neural network predict configurations RGB images. First, novel oriented arrow representatio...

Making sense of our daily experience is a significantly human pastime. We try to understand and structure our experiences so that we can come to grips with the messiness and confusion of everyday life and by so doing give meaning and direction to our actions. Philosophy is one method that we use for explaining our experiences. A philosophy is a collection of beliefs. A belief is a conviction in...

This paper describes a GRASP with path-relinking heuristic for the quadratic assignment problem. GRASP is a multi-start procedure, where different points in the search space are probed with local search for high-quality solutions. Each iteration of GRASP consists of the construction of a randomized greedy solution, followed by local search, starting from the constructed solution. Path-relinking...
