Assistive Applications, Accessibility, and Disability Ethics in HRI

This full-day workshop addresses the problems of accessibility in HRI and the interplay of ethical considerations for disability-centered design and research, accessibility concerns for disabled researchers, and the design of assistive HRI technologies. We invite authors to submit extended abstracts (up to 2 pages, excluding references) and...

Fingerprinting of Cellular Infrastructure Based on Broadcast Information

To avoid exploitation of known vulnerabilities, it is standard security practice to not disclose any model information regarding the antennas used in cellular infrastructure. However, in this work, we show that end-user devices receive enough information to infer, with high accuracy, the model-family of antennas. We demonstrate how low-cost...

A Long-Term Study Of mmWave Sensing In An Outdoor Urban Scenario

Sensing people with mmWave radars is gaining significant attention. This growing interest is due to two factors: radar monitoring provides more privacy than camera-based alternatives, and radio waves are not as easily blocked as light waves. Most mmWave studies, however, have three common characteristics. They are done indoors, without...

LPWAN Performance Enhancement for IoT in the Smart Grid

With the proliferation of IoT devices across the globe, the adoption of IoT related technologies has been increasing rapidly. Newer technologies which fall in the category of Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) have increased this adoption even further. A lot of research is being done in LPWAN licensed band as well as unlicensed band...

Control by Interconnection using Reinforcement Learning

The dynamics of many physical processes can be described by port-Hamiltonian (PH) models where the importance of the energy function can be seen. In Control by Interconnection (CbI), the controller is another PH system that is connected to the plant through a power preserving interconnection to add up the energy functions. However, a major issue...
