Autonomous navigation system by Au, Yi Xian

“…Even after three decades, there are still few real-world strategies that can be used because most techniques in use are based on exaggeratedly optimistic presumptions. When using multiple robots, the agents besides steer clear of obstacles but also prevent collisions with one another, the effects of having unknowledgeable or only vaguely understood maps and states estimate drift increases dramatically [11]. …”

Between parental practices and values: children’s free will beliefs are associated with their parents' autonomy granting but not authoritarian values by Lee, Clyde Jing Yi

“…Results revealed that children’s beliefs in free will was significantly correlated with parental autonomy granting but not authoritarian values. When including both predicters and control variables in a regression model, parental autonomy granting was also found to uniquely contribute to children’s free will beliefs after controlling for children’s age, children’s gender, and parents’ gender. …”
