SUNSHINE: Integrate TOSSIM and P-Sim
Simulators are important tools for wireless sensor network (sensornet) design and evaluation. However, existing simulators only support evaluations of protocols and software aspects of sensornet design. Thus they cannot accurately capture the significant impacts of various hardware designs on …

Learning Sim-to-Real Robot Parkour from RGB Images
… known for their robust transferability between simulated and real-world environments (sim-to-real). However, depth information inherently lacks the semantic information present in RGB images. This thesis investigates the application of an RGB visual locomotion policy for navigating complex …

Margaret Rutherford, Alastair Sim, eccentricity and the British character actor
… impressions of Margaret Rutherford and Alastair Sim's work, and its significance for British cinema as a whole. In order to determine their enduring appeal, the first section, 'Biographical Perspectives', uses the actors' respective biographies to combine their very distinct identities, anchor …

Bridging the Sim-to-Real Gap for Athletic Loco-Manipulation
… moving beyond traditional tracking rewards—which simply guide the robot along a reference trajectory—to task rewards that drive truly dynamic, goal-oriented behaviors. Commands such as “throw the ball as far as you can” or “lift the weight as quickly as possible” compel the robot to exhibit the …

Isolation and characterization of the SIAMESE family: a novel class of cell cycle regulators in plants
Recessive mutations in the SIAMESE (SIM) gene of Arabidopsis result in multicellular trichomes harboring individual nuclei with a low ploidy level, a phenotype strikingly different from that of wild-type trichomes, which are single cells with a nuclear DNA content of approximately 16-32C. These …
