The Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of Nucleosynthesis in Stars Project - Status and Prospects
(2014-06)The KADoNiS (Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of Nucleosynthesis in Stars) project is an astrophysical online database for cross sections relevant for nucleosynthesis in the s process and the γ process. The s-process ... -
KASPAR - a minimally expressive humanoid robot for human-robot interaction research
(2009)This paper provides a comprehensive introduction to the design of the minimally expressive robot KASPAR, which is particularly suitable for human-robot interaction studies. A low-cost design with off-the-shelf components ... -
Kaspar Causally Explains
(Springer Nature, 2023-02-02)The Kaspar robot has been used with great success to work as an education and social mediator with children with autism spectrum disorder. Enabling the robot to automatically generate causal explanations is key to enrich ... -
Kaspar Explains: The Effect of Causal Explanations on Visual Perspective Taking Skills in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2023-11-13)This paper presents an investigation into the effectiveness of introducing explicit causal explanations in a child-robot interaction setting to help children with autism improve their Visual Perspective Taking (VPT) skills. ... -
KASPAR in the wild - Initial findings from a pilot study
(Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour, 2014-04)This extended abstract describes the initial pilot work when evaluating the use of the UH Humanoid Robot KASPAR in a specialist nursery for children with social and communication disorders. Staff and volunteers at the ... -
Kaspar in the wild: Experiences from deploying a small humanoid robot in a nursery school for children with autism
(2020-07-01)This article describes a long-term study evaluating the use of the humanoid robot Kaspar in a specialist nursery for children with autism. The robot was used as a tool in the hands of teachers or volunteers, in the absence ... -
Keep Your Options Open : An Information-Based Driving Principle for Sensorimotor Systems
(2008)The central resource processed by the sensorimotor system of an organism is information. We propose an information-based quantity that allows one to characterize the efficiency of the perception-action loop of an abstract ... -

Kepler-15b : A hot Jupiter enriched in heavy elements and the first Kepler mission planet confirmed with the Hobby-Eberly Telescope
(2011-11-01)We report the discovery of Kepler-15b (KOI-128), a new transiting exoplanet detected by NASA's Kepler mission. The transit signal with a period of 4.94days was detected in the quarter 1 (Q1) Kepler photometry. For the first ... -
Kepler-1649b: : An Exo-Venus in the Solar Neighborhood
(2017-03-17)The Kepler mission has revealed that Earth-sized planets are common, and dozens have been discovered to orbit in or near their host star's habitable zone. A major focus in astronomy is to determine which of these exoplanets ... -
Kepler-18b, c, and d : A system of three planets confirmed by transit timing variations, light curve validation, Warm-Spitzer photometry, and radial velocity measurements
(2011-11-01)We report the detection of three transiting planets around a Sun-like star, which we designate Kepler-18. The transit signals were detected in photometric data from the Kepler satellite, and were confirmed to arise from ... -

Kernelizing LSPE λ
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2007)We propose the use of kernel-based methods as underlying function approximator in the least-squares based policy evaluation framework of LSPE(λ) and LSTD(λ). In particular we present the ‘kernelization’ of model-free ...
