Data Driven Approach to Input Shaping for Vibration Suppression in a Flexible Robot Arm
This paper presents a simple and effective method for setting parameters for an input shaper to suppress the residual vibrations in flexible robot arms using a data-driven approach. The parameters are adaptively tuned in the workspace of the robot by interpolating previously measured data of the robot's residual vibrations. Input shaping is a simple and robust technique to generate vibration-reduced shaped commands by a convolution of an impulse sequence with the desired input command. The gene…

Stability and Performance of Online Feedback Optimization for Distribution Grid Flexibility
The integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) into sub-transmission systems has enabled new opportunities for flexibility provision in ancillary services such as frequency and voltage support, as well as congestion management. This paper investigates the stability and performance of Online Feedback Optimization (OFO) controllers in ensuring reliable flexibility provision. A hierarchical control architecture is proposed, emphasizing safe transitions between system states within the Feas…

What's in the Box? Reasoning about Unseen Objects from Multimodal Cues
People regularly make inferences about objects in the world that they cannot see by flexibly integrating information from multiple sources: auditory and visual cues, language, and our prior beliefs and knowledge about the scene. How are we able to so flexibly integrate many sources of information to make sense of the world around us, even if we have no direct knowledge? In this work, we propose a neurosymbolic model that uses neural networks to parse open-ended multimodal inputs and then applie…

“Minister Melissa Depraetere bevestigt dit: ‘Het capaciteitstarief in zijn huidige vorm is op sommige momenten inderdaad een drempel om flexibiliteit aan te bieden wanneer dit gewenst is. Op een zonnige zondagnamiddag met negatieve prijzen is het naar marktwerking toe niet ideaal dat men zou worden afgestraft om het eigen vermogen af te nemen om bijvoorbeeld een elektrische wagen te laden aan vol vermogen.’”

Minister Depraetere: capaciteitstarief botst met flexibele energiecontracten
Minister Depraetere heeft in het Vlaams Parlement erkend dat het huidige capaciteitstarief op gespannen voet staat met de nieuwe, flexibele energiecontracten die onder meer gebruikmaken van dynamische stroomprijzen.

"AI" product development is in a strategic falsifiability crisis
The crisis is shaped like the No True Scotsman fallacy, Sunk Cost fallacy, and conspiracy theories ALL AT THE SAME TIME
there is no possible accumulated evidence that would lead boosters to conclude that "an LLM isn't an appropriate artifact to address this problem"
I see them throwing LLMs at *already beyond-adequately solved problems* (units conversion! chess! constraint fitting!), ge…

Risky Medications: The FDA has given more than 20 foreign factories a special pass to continue sending drugs to the U.S. even though they were made at plants that the agency had banned.
Troubled Factories: The medications came mostly from plants in India where inspectors found contaminated drugs, filthy labs and falsified records.
FDA Secrecy: The agency did not proactively inform the public when drugs were exempted from import bans, and it did not routinely test the medications …

Threat in Your Medicine Cabinet: The FDA’s Gamble on America’s Drugs
A ProPublica investigation found that for more than a decade, the FDA gave substandard factories banned from the United States a special pass to keep sending drugs to an unsuspecting public.

"An Australian study, conducted over four years and starting before the pandemic, has come up with some enlightening conclusions about the impact of working from home. The researchers are unequivocal: this flexibility significantly improves the well-being and happiness of employees, transforming our relationship with work."
