Maessen, Rosa E.S. (author), Prendergast, J.M. (author), Peternel, L. (author)Skill propagation among robots without human involvement can be crucial in quickly spreading new physical skills to many robots. In this respect, it is a good alternative to pure reinforcement learning, which can be time-consuming, or learning from human demonstration, which requires human involvement. In the latter case, there may not be...journal article 2023

Dokter, Giliam (author), Boks, Casper (author), Rahe, Ulrike (author), Jansen, B. (author), Hagejärd, Sofie (author), Thuvander, Liane (author)To bridge the gap between the conceptualisation and implementation of circular value propositions, recent research efforts have focused on linking design-driven approaches with circular-oriented innovation. Such approaches can facilitate iterative processes that emphasise co-creation, prototyping, and real-life experimentation, ultimately...journal article 2023
