grasp is a software package in Fortran 95, adapted to run parallel under MPI, for research atomic physics. The basic premise that, given wave function, any observed property can be computed. Thus, the first step always determine function. Different properties challenge accuracy of function different ways. This distributed MIT Licence.

In grasp planning for a robot hand, the impact of the environment geometry on grasp choice is often of paramount importance. This paper presents a partial solution to the problem of tting a hand to an object in a given environment. Information provided by a set of ngertip contact regions or by a grasp prototype is exploited to e ciently compute the space of wrist con gurations from which the gr...

DM-GRASP is an immunoglobulin superfamily cell adhesion molecule that is expressed in both the developing nervous and immune system. Specific populations of neurons respond to DM-GRASP substrates appears to require homophilic interactions between DM-GRASP molecules. We were interested in determining whether DM-GRASP interacts heterophilically with other ligands as well. We have found that eleve...

When a multi-fingered hand grasps an object, the ways to grasp it stably are infinite, and thus an optimal grasp planning is necessary to find the relatively optimized grasp points on object for achieving the objective of the given grasping and manipulating task. For this, we first define several grasp indices to evaluate the quality of each feasible grasp. Since the physical meanings of the de...

We investigate the degree to which participants’ predictions of a simulated stock price are influenced by predictions made by a herd of five other (fictitious) participants when they consist of a majority or minority. The results of Experiment 1 showed that the participants followed a majority herd independently of whether its predictions were accurate or random. In Experiment 2, the majority i...

The cerebellar cortex and nuclei play important roles in the learning, planning, and execution of reach-to-grasp and prehensile movements. However, few studies have investigated the signals carried by cerebellar neurons during reach-to-grasp, particularly signals relating to target object properties, hand shape, and grasp force. In this study, the simple spike discharge of 77 Purkinje cells was...
