Abstract: Robotic manipulation of deformable linear objects (DLOs) has broad application prospects, e.g., manufacturing and medical surgery. To achieve such tasks, a critical challenge is the precise ...

Abstract: Mixed Integer Linear Programs (MILPs) are powerful tools for modeling and solving combinatorial optimization problems. Solving an MILP is NP-hard due to the integrality requirement, and the ...

Four simple strategies—beginning with an image, previewing vocabulary, omitting the numbers, and offering number sets—can have a big impact on learning.

Like many of us, [Tim]’s seen online videos of circuit sculptures containing illuminated LED filaments. Unlike most of us, however, he went a step further by using graph theory to design glowing ...
