Some results related to the problem of interpolation of n vertical segments (xk, Yk), k = 1,…,n, in the plane with generalized polynomial functions that are linear combinations of m basic functions are presented. It is proved that the set of interpolating functions (if not empty) is bounded in...

This paper describes the design optimization of a robot sensor used for locating 3-D objects employing the Taguchi method in a computer simulation scenario. The location information from the sensor is to be utilized to control the movements of an industrial robot in a 'pick-and-place' or...
