In-Hand Dexterous Manipulation of Piecewise-Smooth 3-D Objects:

TL;DR: The differential control for finger tracking is described and analyzed and extended to on-line continuous control for a set of cooperating robot fingers and is computationally efficient, exact, and takes into consideration the full dynamics of the system.

Synthesis of tactical plans for robotic excavation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an approach to synthesize plans for robotic excavators, where an action space is spanned by parameters that abstract the actions that a robot excavator might perform.

Continuous path planning with multiple constraints

TL;DR: An auxiliary partial differential equation is proposed with which one can evaluate multiple additive cost metrics for paths which are generated by value functions; solving this auxiliary equation adds little more work to the value function computation.

Gap navigation trees: Minimal representation for visibility-based tasks

TL;DR: The Gap Navigation Tree is presented, useful for solving different visibility-based robotic tasks in unknown planar environments, and its use for optimal robot navigation in simply- connected environments, locally optimal navigation in multiply-connected environments, pursuit-evasion, and robot localization is presented.
