Publications & Doctoral Theses (Bio-Inspired, Networked & Emotional Robotics)

The links to Ph.D. theses of students together with some of the major publications  are available below in chronological order are listed below. For an area-wise list of the same click HERE – this may however not be up-to-date.

Theses/Papers tagged [Typhon] indicate that the reported work used Typhon – A Mobile Agent Emulation Platform, developed at this lab., for realization while those tagged [Tartarus] indicate that the same used the new SWI-Prolog based multi-threaded version of Typhon viz. Tartarus. Theses/Papers tagged [AgPi] indicate that the Raspberry Pi version of Tartarus was used while those tagged [TarPy] used the Python version of Tartarus. Those interested in using Tartarus may visit the link: https://github.com/roboticslab-cseiitg/ProjectTartarus
