• Abstract: Motion planning in the configuration space (C-space) induces benefits, such as smooth trajectories. It becomes more complex as the degrees of freedom (DOF) increase. This is due to the direct relation between the dimensionality of the search space and the DOF. Self-organizing neural networks (SONN) and their famous candidate, the Self-Organizing Map, have been proven to be useful tools for C-space reduction while preserving its underlying topology, as presented in [29]. In this work, we extend our previous study with additional models and adapt the approach from human motion data towards robots' kinematics. The evaluation includes the best performant models from [29] and three additional SONN architectures, representing the consequent continuation of this previous work. Generated Trajectories, planned with the different SONN models, were successfully tested in a robot simulation.

  This paper introduces self-supervised neural network models to tackle several fundamental problems in the field of 3D human body analysis and processing. We propose VariShaPE, a novel architecture for the retrieval of latent space representations of body shapes and poses. Second, we complement the estimation of latent codes with MoGeN, a framework that learns the geometry on the latent space itself.

  This paper presents a novel approach to generating the 3D motion of a human interacting with a target object.

The experiments on the NSM, COUCH, and SAMP datasets show that our approach outperforms previous methods by a large margin in both quality and diversity.

  We present the development of a deep learning model for the re-entry prediction of uncontrolled objects in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) The model is based on a modified version of the Sequence-to-Sequence architecture and is trained on the average altitude profile as derived from a set of Two-Line Element (TLE) data of over 400 bodies. The novelty of the work consists in introducing in the deep learning model, alongside the average altitude, three new input features: a drag-like coefficient (B*), the average solar index, and the area-to-mass ratio of the object.

We propose a 3D reconstruction model that faithfully reconstructs the scene, despite the noisy measurements and large amounts of missing data coming from the blind spots of the camera arrangement.
