When choosing parameters for a tactile action, it is useful to be able to choose parameters that will optimize the discriminating power of the tactile data acquired during the action. We propose a way to extract this information about informative grasp parameters from a deep network trained to perform a classification task on the tactile data. We do this by defining a new cost function on the n...

We present results from fully two-dimensional physical device simulation. Scattering parameters (S-parameters) are directly obtained from small-signal AC-analysis of real heterostructure devices. A comparison reveals very good agreement with measured data.

We consider a model for the decay B 0 → ρ 0 γ in which the short-distance amplitude determined by the Hamiltonian describing b → dγ is combined with a typical long-distance contribution B 0 → D + D − → ρ 0 γ. The latter possesses a significant dynamical phase which induces a CP-violating asymmetry A CP , as well as an important modification of the Stokes vector of the photon.

This paper improves van Zyl’s Nonnegative Eigenvalue Decomposition (NNED). Orientation angle compensation and helix scattering are introduced to the decomposition. The volume scattering parameters that explain the most cross-polarized power are selected. If volume scattering and helix scattering explain all cross-polarized power in the measured coherency matrix, then simply perform van Zyl deco...

We investigate the equivalence between spectral characteristics of the Laplace operator on a metric graph, and the associated unitary scattering operator. We prove that the statistics of level spacings, and moments of observations in the eigenbases coincide in the limit that all bond lengths approach a positive constant value.

A electroweak theory without spontaneous symmetry breaking is studied in this paper. A new symmetry breaking of SU(2)L × U(1), axial-vector symmetry breaking, caused by the combination of the axial-vector component of the intermediate boson and the fermion mass is found in electroweak theory. The mass of the W boson is resulted in the combination of the axial-vector symmetry breaking and the ex...

We show that the large corrections due to final state interactions (FSI) in the D+ → π−π+π+ , D+ s → π−π+π+ , andD+ → K−π+π+ decays can be accounted for by invoking scattering amplitudes in agreement with those derived from phase shifts studies. In this way, broad/overlapping resonances in S-waves are properly treated and the phase motions of the transition amplitudes are driven by the scatteri...

This paper proposes a method to calculate the largest Regular Dextrous Workspace (RDW) of some types of threerevolute orthogonal manipulators that have at least one of their DH parameters equal to zero. Then a new performance index based on the RDW is introduced, the isocontours of this index are plotted in the parameter space of the interesting types of manipulators and finally an inspection o...

A method of path averaging for waves propagating in a random dilute system of identical scatterers is developed. The scattering matrix of such a system is calculated. The method systematically takes into account repeating scatterings on the same scatterer and effects of correlations. Results obtained show the significant influence of new effects on the extinction of a coherent field and are val...

ABSTRACT: In this paper we propose the polarimetric response in target characterization and SAR radar image classification. Polarimetric response is a graphical representation that is dependent on transmitted and received polarizations. The polarimetric response is given in a pair of two curves, one represents the copolarized response and the second represents the cross-polarized response. The ...
