Evaluating Zero-Shot and One-Shot Adaptation of Small Language Models in Leader-Follower Interaction

Rafael Reimann Baptista, André de Lima Salgado, Ricardo V. Godoy, Marcelo Becker et autres

Leader-follower interaction is an important paradigm in human-robot interaction (HRI). Yet, assigning roles in real time remains challenging for resource-constrained mobile and assistive robots. While large language models (LLMs) have shown promise for natural communication, their size and latency limit on-device deployment. …

Temporal Changes in Pectoralis Major Mechanical Properties During and Following Velocity-Based Resistance Training: A Repeated-Measures Myotonometric Study

Helio Carratalá Bellod, Alejandro Sanz, Rafael Reimann Baptista, Florentino Huertas et autres

Abstract Background: Resistance training induces fatigue-related responses that may reduce force-generating capacity through metabolic and neuromuscular mechanisms. Muscle mechanical properties, including stiffness, elasticity, and resting tone, assessed via myotonometry, provide information about the passive mechanical state and functional status of skeletal muscle. …
