Original Research By Young Twinkle Students (ORBYTS): Ephemeris Refinement of Transiting Exoplanets
Billy Edwards, Quentin Changeat, Kai Hou Yip +60
We report follow-up observations of transiting exoplanets that have either large uncertainties (>10 minutes) in their transit times or have not been observed for over three years.…
DeFM: Learning Foundation Representations from Depth for Robotics
Manthan Patel, Jonas Frey, Mayank Mittal +5
Depth sensors are widely deployed across robotic platforms, and advances in fast, high-fidelity depth simulation have enabled robotic policies trained on depth observations to achi…
Collaborative Mapping of Archaeological Sites using multiple UAVs
Manthan Patel, Aditya Bandopadhyay, Aamir Ahmad
UAVs have found an important application in archaeological mapping. Majority of the existing methods employ an offline method to process the data collected from an archaeological s…
CoMind: Understanding Collaborative Human Activity from Multiple Minds and Views
Alexey Gavryushin, Dingxi Zhang, Zhao Huang +8
Human-human collaboration is a fundamental aspect of everyday life, essential to success in a wide range of goal-directed activities from household tasks to professional teamwork.…
WildOS: Open-Vocabulary Object Search in the Wild
Hardik Shah, Erica Tevere, Deegan Atha +6
Autonomous navigation in complex, unstructured outdoor environments requires robots to operate over long ranges without prior maps and limited depth sensing. In such settings, rely…
Large-Scale Autonomous Gas Monitoring for Volcanic Environments: A Legged Robot on Mount Etna
Julia Richter, Turcan Tuna, Manthan Patel +6
Volcanic gas emissions are key precursors of eruptive activity. Yet, obtaining accurate near-surface measurements remains hazardous and logistically challenging, motivating the nee…
