In this context, a mechanism enabling autoprogram of robot is desired. Learning from demonstration system (LDS) is one of systems that aim on this goal. In this paper, we present a graph based representation of knowledge called assembly graph (AG) to describe the knowledge on parts assembly, which is independent on specific workspace or robot. Based on this graph representation, a LDS framework is then proposed for parts assembly to enable knowledge transform and knowledge transfer. The former means that the knowledge on part assembly can be transformed from the human to the robot and the latter means that the knowledge can be transferred from the leaned computer to any other robots with other workspace. Besides, we present an implementation of this conceptual framework consisting of two stages including demonstration and execution. In demonstration stage, a human teacher shows the process of parts assembly, which is recorded by a camera system. The assembly relations are detected from images and represented by AG. It is solved by taking property of parts as well as the robot into consideration to obtain the precise pose of each part. By using the solution, the robot can assemble the parts as shown in demonstration in the execution stage. In the experiment, the building blocks are used for assembly. Our robot succeeds in assembling some building blocks together which is initially demonstrated by a human teacher.","PeriodicalId":183401,"journal":{"name":"The 4th Annual IEEE International Conference on Cyber Technology in Automation, Control and Intelligent","volume":"59 12","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113938176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to evaluate their locomotion, different metrics according to specific research goals have been developed in the last decades. However, there is a lack of homogeneity in the use of these metrics between robot types and the tasks executed. In this paper, a set of metrics is presented. These metrics were divided in performance and efficiency metrics to capture such characteristics in a MSR. Related work on metrics for this kind of robots was reviewed in detail. A description of each metric was provided. Friction coefficients, translational speed, orientation of the velocity vector and a stability margin, define the first set of metrics aimed to measuring the robot's performance. On the other hand, energy efficiency, mechanical energy efficiency and dissipated power conform the set of efficiency metrics. Hence, a metric framework for MSR's locomotion was presented. The use of this framework is oriented to spatial motion of modular snake robots.","PeriodicalId":183401,"journal":{"name":"The 4th Annual IEEE International Conference on Cyber Technology in Automation, Control and Intelligent","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126536568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sliding mode control is powerful to reject disturbance and has good robustness. However, sliding mode control is a fast switching control essentially. While accelerating the speed to reach the sliding surface, it will result in large chattering which can induce high-frequency oscillation of the output of wind power generation system. This paper proposes a novel chattering-free terminal sliding mode control based on the vector control technology, and applies it to control direct driven permanent magnet synchronous generator(PMSG). Speed and dq-axis current regulator are designed to ensure the rotor speed and current to reach the given values in finite time, respectively. The method proposed can estimate the chattering and enhance the system dynamic and static performance. Compared with PI control, the simulation results verify that the speed and current can track the given value more rapidly. Moreover, it has strong robustness to disturbance.","PeriodicalId":183401,"journal":{"name":"The 4th Annual IEEE International Conference on Cyber Technology in Automation, Control and Intelligent","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125289498","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Core needle biopsy (CNB) under US guidance for the lesions detected on US is the procedure of choice to retrieve tissue for histopathologic study, resulting in appropriate treatment planning. This procedure requires skill and experience of radiologist in order to obtain the sufficient tissue for accurate histopathologic diagnosis. Our new breast biopsy guidance system comprises of a passive robotic needle and its graphical user interfaces: GUI on MATLAB and 3D Slicer interface based on real-time data from optical tracking system. The passive robot consists of 5 DOFs; the first and the second DOFs are for translation curvature, the third and fourth DOFs are for rotation motions, and the fifth DOF is for needle insertion. The robot is designed based on breast features, and its movements are based on friction method. The robot has high tensile strength and good impact resistance due to Polyoxymethylene (POM) or Polyacetal is used as its material. The experimental results have shown very high success rates to perform simulated breast biopsy, and the robot can increase the accuracy and proficiency of needle insertion.","PeriodicalId":183401,"journal":{"name":"The 4th Annual IEEE International Conference on Cyber Technology in Automation, Control and Intelligent","volume":"187 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122488205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
