TrueSkill Through Time: Revisiting the History of Chess (2009)
Pierre Dangauthier, Inria Rhone Alpes, Ralf Herbrich, Tom Minka, Thore Graepel
We extend the Bayesian skill rating system TrueSkill to infer entire time series of skills of players by smoothing through time instead of filtering. The skill of each participating player, say,...
Parallelism and Aldor: a first report of Pi^it (2007)
Niklaus Mannhart, Thierry Gautier, Inria Rhone Alpes, Apache Project
We describe the implementation of \Pi it , a library for parallel computations in Aldor. In the poster, both design and experimentations on linear algebra examples are presented. 1 Introduction \Pi...
Robotic Hands : Modelisation, Control and Grasping Strategies (2007)
Thomas Doersam, Luis Alberto Munoz, Luis Alberto, Munoz Ubando, Inria Rhone Alpes
. Multifingered robot hands can be used for applying fine motions. Unlike pick-andplace manipulations, Fine Motions Strategies generate movements based on sensor information to overcome mechanical...
Robust Dexterous Manipulation : A Methodology using Visual Servoing (2007)
L. A. Muñoz, L. A. Mu~noz, Inria Rhone Alpes
This paper proposes a methodology called visual servoing for dexterous manipulation using dexterous hands 1 . Most of the literature on dexterous manipulation follows the classical "planning...

Image matching consists of finding features in different images that represent the same feature of the observed scene. It is a basic process in vision whenever several images are used. This paper...
Elena Panteley Inria, Elena Panteley, Inria Rhone Alpes, Andrey Sokolov
In this paper we deal with the stability analysis problem of cascaded non autonomous nonlinear systems. In particular we answer to the following questions: (i) What happens with the solutions of a...
Towards Realistic Dynamic Simulation: Deformations and Collisions Models (1997)
Inria Rhone Alpes, A. Joukhadar, A. Joukhadar, A. Deguet, A. Deguet, C. Laugier, ...
In this paper, we describe models and algorithms designed to produce efficient and physically consistent dynamic simulations. These models and algorithms have been implemented in a unique framework,...
Adaptive Time Step for Fast Converging Dynamic Simulation System (1996)
Ammar Joukhadar, Christian Laugier, Inria Rhone Alpes
Dynamic simulation can be a powerful tool for the study of complex contact interactions between robots and their environments, but a large amount of computation is often required to generate...
Simple Controllers for Dexterous Hands (1996)
L.A. Muñoz, L. A. Mu~noz, Inria Rhone Alpes, Thomas Doersam
This report presents analysis and experimental results of controlling two different dexterous hands. Until now, position and velocity control have been tested on the real hands. The development of a...
Planning Robot Motion Strategies under Geometric Uncertainty Constraints (1994)
Fernando De, Christian Laugier, Inria Rhone Alpes
. This paper presents an approach to plan robust motion strategies of a robot navigating through an environment composed of polygonal obstacles subject to geometric uncertainty constraints. The...
