Typically, a vehicle navigation system comprises of real-time environment perception, vehicle localization, collision avoidance, path planning, and path following. In order to achieve the features for intelligent autonomous vehicle, a sensor suite of integrated inertial measurement unit (IMU), GNSS receiver, and incremental encoder is developed for vehicle position estimation. A map-aided path planning strategy is employed to generate a reference route. To this end, a UMI (User Machine Interface) is developed to facilitate the observation of a goal-oriented path tracking situation. The system utilizes particle filter algorithm to guide the vehicle following the planned path in terms of vehicle estimation control. The recursive particle filter is able to weight the cells and response the angle as well as estimated position information. All the sensors are integrated into an embedded computer platform and able to assess the autonomous driving capability. The test is conducted on campus by installing the sensor suite and embedded computer platform into an electricintegrated inertial measurement unit vehicle.","PeriodicalId":186492,"journal":{"name":"2013 CACS International Automatic Control Conference (CACS)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130810597","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}

This is still a popular topic in the robotics community. However most of the SLAM approaches rely on laser scanners that are expensive. With the release of RGB-D cameras, a new class of Visual SLAM approaches became available. The major advantage of the RGB-D cameras is that they provide not only RGB but also the depth information which can estimate the full 6 degrees of freedom of the position in a low-cost way. In this paper, we propose a real-time system that uses an RGB-D camera as the sole sensor to localize the mobile robot and to build a 3D map simultaneously. We evaluated the performance of the proposed system through the datasets and the mobile robot platform. We also compared the proposed system to the FOVIS system. The results show that the proposed system can process at a rate of 25 fps on a CPU core of the command laptop without GPU support while the accuracy is better then 4 cm.","PeriodicalId":186492,"journal":{"name":"2013 CACS International Automatic Control Conference (CACS)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132972624","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}

Due to it causes smaller scaMrs, lower blood loss, shorter hospital stay, and lower morbidity rates. Nowadays, open surgery is gradually replaced by MIS, which is mainly applied to cholecystectomy, splenectomy, nephrectomy, and hepatectomy. The purpose in the research is to arrange the port placement and instruments location by considering the three-dimensional abdominal model, the biomedical limitation, and the fluency of surgery. For instrument operation, two angles is considered in, and “weighting” is taken into consideration. In addition, this research develops an information integration and treatment planning for minimally invasive surgical system, and verifies its accuracy and stability by in-vivo experiments. The achievement of the paper will provide more sufficient information of anatomy in MIS. With enhancing the instruments' degree of freedom and force feedback, MIS will be simpler. Thus the safety and the therapeutic effect in MIS will be enhanced.","PeriodicalId":186492,"journal":{"name":"2013 CACS International Automatic Control Conference (CACS)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116758836","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}

Conventional GTM models can be interpreted as a probabilistic model using Gaussian process prior, and therefore the choice of covariance function in the Gaussian process prior has an important effect on the performance. However the conventional GTM models use a covariance function with a constant length-scale for the whole latent space, and therefore fail to adapt to variable smoothness in the nonlinear topographically preserving mapping. In this paper, we propose GTM with latent variable dependent length-scale (GTM-LDLV), which can adjust the smoothness in local areas of the latent space individually.","PeriodicalId":186492,"journal":{"name":"2013 CACS International Automatic Control Conference (CACS)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115191233","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 this paper, we propose an optimal TR method, which searches the optimal point from the type reduced set as a defuzzified output.

The USV is equipped with automatic navigation features and a complete substitute artificial manipulation. This USV system for exploring the marine environment has more carrying capacity and that measurement system can also be self-designed through a modular approach in accordance with the needs for various types of environmental conditions. The investigation work becomes more flexible. A catamaran hull is adopted as automatic navigation test with CompactRIO embedded system.

In this paper, the design of automatic navigation is calculated in accordance with fuzzy algorithms. Fuzzy control is applied to adjust required power and steering, which allows the hull can move straight forward to a predetermined target position.
