Jointly Predicting Courses and Grades Using a Transformer-Based Model
Paul Savala
Existing predictive models in learning analytics often treat student academic history as a simple sequence, overlooking the concurrent nature of courses taken within a semester. Th…
3D Printing of Passively Actuated Self-Folding Robots with Integrated Functional Modules
Gaolin Ge, Qifeng Yang, Haoran Lu +3
We introduce an elastic-driven self-folding approach that fabricates robots directly from flat 3D-printed conductive PLA nets. Elastic bands routed through printed hooks store ener…
Deco: Extending Personal Physical Objects into Pervasive AI Companion through a Dual-Embodiment Framework
Zhihan Jiang, Mengyuan Millie Wu, Ruishi Zou +14
Individuals frequently form deep attachments to physical objects (e.g., plush toys) that usually cannot sense or respond to their emotions. While AI companions offer responsiveness…
Zero Shot Deformation Reconstruction for Soft Robots Using a Flexible Sensor Array and Cage Based 3D Gaussian Modeling
Linrui Shou, Zilang Chen, Wenjia Xu +2
We present a zero-shot deformation reconstruction framework for soft robots that operates without any visual supervision at inference time. In this work, zero-shot deformation reco…
DissolvPCB: Fully Recyclable 3D-Printed Electronics with Liquid Metal Conductors and PVA Substrates
Zeyu Yan, SuHwan Hong, Josiah Hester +2
We introduce DissolvPCB, an electronic prototyping technique for fabricating fully recyclable printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) using affordable FDM 3D printing, with polyvi…
