This paper presents a literature survey documenting the evolution of continuum robots over
the past two decades (1999–present). Attention is paid to bioinspired soft robots with respect …

Continuum and soft robots can positively impact diverse sectors, from biomedical
applications to marine and space exploration, thanks to their potential to adaptively interact …

Continuum robots are kinematically redundant and their dynamic models are highly
nonlinear. This study aims to overcome this difficulty by presenting a more practical dynamic …

In recent years, the field of continuum robots, whether theoretical research or practical
applications, has received significant attention from the robotic community due to the …

Recently, there has been an increased interest in the deployment of continuum robots in
unstructured and challenging environments. However, the application of the state-of-the-art …

In most of the prior designs of conventional cable‐driven hyper‐redundant robots, the
multiple degree‐of‐freedom (DOF) bending motion usually has bending coupling effects. It …

Minimally invasive steerable catheters, commonly implemented in cardiac ablation, are
currently operated by interventionalists exposing them to X-ray radiation and requiring the …

Arm robot manipulator heavily applied in industries ranging from welding, pick-and-place,
assembly, packaging, labeling, etc. Trajectory planning and tracking is the fundamental …

Learning to rank has considered as a promising approach for ranking in information
retrieval. In recent years feature selection for learning to rank introduced as a crucial issue …

In this paper, modeling and control of a robotic carrier for the cleaning system of solar power
plants is presented. Since solar panels are placed at natural environments, there is always a …
