How Firm Should a Grasp Be?
Matthew Beveridge, Shree K. Nayar
An ideal robot grasp is firm enough to securely handle an object, yet gentle enough to avoid damaging it. Achieving this balance requires knowledge of the object's material propert…
Hierarchical Material Recognition from Local Appearance
Matthew Beveridge, Shree K. Nayar
We introduce a taxonomy of materials for hierarchical recognition from local appearance. Our taxonomy is motivated by vision applications and is arranged according to the physical…
Tracking Blobs in the Turbulent Edge Plasma of a Tokamak Fusion Device
Woonghee Han, Randall A. Pietersen, Rafael Villamor-Lora +7
The analysis of turbulence in plasmas is fundamental in fusion research. Despite extensive progress in theoretical modeling in the past 15 years, we still lack a complete and consi…
Predicting Critical Biogeochemistry of the Southern Ocean for Climate Monitoring
Ellen Park, Jae Deok Kim, Nadege Aoki +5
The Biogeochemical-Argo (BGC-Argo) program is building a network of globally distributed, sensor-equipped robotic profiling floats, improving our understanding of the climate syste…
Predicting Atlantic Multidecadal Variability
Glenn Liu, Peidong Wang, Matthew Beveridge +2
Atlantic Multidecadal Variability (AMV) describes variations of North Atlantic sea surface temperature with a typical cycle of between 60 and 70 years. AMV strongly impacts local c…
Pedestrian Wind Factor Estimation in Complex Urban Environments
Sarah Mokhtar, Matthew Beveridge, Yumeng Cao +1
Urban planners and policy makers face the challenge of creating livable and enjoyable cities for larger populations in much denser urban conditions. While the urban microclimate ho…
Image2Lego: Customized LEGO Set Generation from Images
Kyle Lennon, Katharina Fransen, Alexander O'Brien +5
Although LEGO sets have entertained generations of children and adults, the challenge of designing customized builds matching the complexity of real-world or imagined scenes remain…
Online Preconditioning of Experimental Inkjet Hardware by Bayesian Optimization in Loop
Alexander E. Siemenn, Matthew Beveridge, Tonio Buonassisi +1
High-performance semiconductor optoelectronics such as perovskites have high-dimensional and vast composition spaces that govern the performance properties of the material. To cost…
A Machine Learning and Computer Vision Approach to Rapidly Optimize Multiscale Droplet Generation
Alexander E. Siemenn, Evyatar Shaulsky, Matthew Beveridge +3
Generating droplets from a continuous stream of fluid requires precise tuning of a device to find optimized control parameter conditions. It is analytically intractable to compute…
Image2Reverb: Cross-Modal Reverb Impulse Response Synthesis
Nikhil Singh, Jeff Mentch, Jerry Ng +2
Measuring the acoustic characteristics of a space is often done by capturing its impulse response (IR), a representation of how a full-range stimulus sound excites it. This work ge…
