The realm of textiles spans clothing, households, healthcare, sports, and industrial
applications. The deformable nature of these objects poses unique challenges that prior …

Cloth manipulation by robots is gaining popularity among researchers because of its
relevance, mainly (but not only) in domestic and assistive robotics. The required science and …

The work addresses the problem of clothing perception and manipulation by a two armed
industrial robot aiming at a real-time automated folding of a piece of garment spread out on …

Robotic handling of textile objects in household environments is an emerging application
that has recently received considerable attention thanks to the development of domestic …

Cloth manipulation remains a challenging problem for the robotic community. Recently,
there has been an increased interest in applying deep learning techniques to problems in …

A generalized framework for numerical differentiation (ND) is proposed for constructing a
finite impulse response (FIR) filter in closed form. The framework regulates the frequency …

Research on automated, image based identification of clothing categories and fashion
landmarks has recently gained significant interest due to its potential impact on areas such …

We address the problem of recognizing a configuration of a piece of garment fairly spread
out on a flat surface. We suppose that the background surface is invariant and that its color is …

This thesis introduces an effective robotic garment flattening pipeline and robotic perception
paradigms for predicting garments' geometric (shape) and physics properties. Robotic …

Developing autonomous assistants to help with domestic tasks is a vital topic in robotics
research. Among these tasks, garment folding is one of them that is still far from being …
