I flew to Mojave for lunch and also to record tufts on the top of the cowling.

In my seldom humble opinion, it makes no sense to talk of real particles as real and virtual particles as a mistaken terminology. The reason I say this is because all we can ever have in physics are models that are hopefully predictive. The idea is of a particle itself is a model dependent concept based on our classica...

Tentacle Drivetrain Calculator) and the Team Run Amok Spinner Weapon Spreadsheet (Excel) . I can tell you that most antweights use LiPoly batteries, but that the specific battery you need will depend on your answers to the above questions. If you don't want to do the required work, just look around at successful robots...

Between the two, the U-D factorization uses the same amount of storage, and somewhat less computation, and is the most commonly used triangular factorization. (Early literature on the relative efficiency is somewhat misleading, as it assumed that square roots were much more time-consuming than divisions,: 69 while on 2...

While timeouts can indeed help exploration in RL, depending on the specific context and implementation, it is oft-ignored as a parameter in task specification. Our results confirm that the choice of the time limit can substantially affect overall learning performance, as there is a direct correlation between the freque...

In this section, we introduce two technological approaches for fusing multimodal sensing data. Firstly, we survey how thermal and depth data can be combined. Secondly, we show how radar is used for data fusion.

I took off and found the engine still quite rough, so I went to Flagstaff, just 20 minutes away, and presented myself to the mechanic with whom I had spoken. His name was Rory Goforth -- a poetic name, I thought, for someone who sends airplanes roaring out into the world. I described the problem, including the fact tha...

In two weeks, Iron Reign is planning on building a robot in 2 days, based on the 2019-2020 Skystone Reveal Video. We've never really built a robot in that short span of a time, so we realized that preparing a suitable chassis ahead of time will make the challenge a lot easier as it gives us time to focus on specific su...

In recent years, random subspace methods have been actively studied for large-dimensional nonconvex problems. Recent subspace methods have improved theoretical guarantees such as iteration complexity and local convergence rate while reducing computational costs by deriving descent directions in randomly selected low-di...

The Lie group of n n rotation matrices, SO(n), is not simply connected, so Lie theory tells us it is a homomorphic image of a universal covering group. Often the covering group, which in this case is called the spin group denoted by Spin(n), is simpler and more natural to work with.
