Seeing Globally, Refining Locally: Global Visual Guidance and Local Ultrasound Cues for Robust Freehand 3-D Ultrasound Reconstruction
Yameng Zhang, Zhongyu Chen, Dianye Huang +3
The paper introduces a system that combines external camera tracking with ultrasound image cues to more accurately estimate the probe pose during freehand 3‑D ultrasound scanning,…
Hierarchical Deformation Planning and Neural Tracking for DLOs in Constrained Environments
Yunxi Tang, Tianqi Yang, Jing Huang +2
Deformable linear objects (DLOs) manipulation presents significant challenges due to DLOs' inherent high-dimensional state space and complex deformation dynamics. The wide-populate…
Passage-traversing optimal path planning with sampling-based algorithms
Jing Huang, Hao Su, Kwok Wai Samuel Au
This paper introduces a new paradigm of optimal path planning, i.e., passage-traversing optimal path planning (PTOPP), that optimizes paths' traversed passages for specified optimi…
Vibration-Based Energy Metric for Restoring Needle Alignment in Autonomous Robotic Ultrasound
Zhongyu Chen, Chenyang Li, Xuesong Li +5
Precise needle alignment is essential for percutaneous needle insertion in robotic ultrasound-guided procedures. However, inherent challenges such as speckle noise, needle-like art…
Learning to Hop for a Single-Legged Robot with Parallel Mechanism
Hongbo Zhang, Xiangyu Chu, Yanlin Chen +4
This work presents the application of reinforcement learning to improve the performance of a highly dynamic hopping system with a parallel mechanism. Unlike serial mechanisms, para…
