The self-evolving controller starts with a simple configuration and learns from its own actions while controlling the mobile robot during the leader following behaviour. A traditional Takagi-Sugeno type fuzzy controller is also implemented and compared with the proposed controller to verify the reliability and performance of the self-evolving controller. Experiments are carried out with a real mobile robot Pioneer 3DX at Lancaster University.","PeriodicalId":243348,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Workshop on Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130337747","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 paper presents an original computational technology for unsupervised incremental classification of large data sets by using a specially introduced similarity analysis method. First of all the so called compressed data models are obtained from the original large data sets by a newly proposed sequential clustering algorithm. Then the data sets are compared by pairs not directly, but by using their respective compressed data models. The evaluation of the pairs is done by a special similarity analysis method that uses the so called Intelligent Sensors (Agents) and data potentials. Finally a classification decision is generated by using a predefined threshold of similarity. The applicability of the proposed computational scheme for anomaly detection, based on many available large data sets is demonstrated on an example of 18 synthetic data sets. Suggestions for further improvements of the whole computation technology and a better applicability are also discussed in the paper.","PeriodicalId":243348,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Workshop on Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132788946","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}

Our motivation stems from the fact that the Adaptive Immune System constitutes one of the most sophisticated biological systems which is particularly evolved in order to continuously address an extremely unbalanced pattern classification problem. That is the “self”/“non-self” discrimination process, consisting in classifying any cell as “self” or “non-self”. Our experimentation indicates that the AIS-based classification paradigm has the intrinsic properly in dealing more efficiently with highly skewed datasets than standard pattern classification algorithms such as the Support Vector Machines (SVMs). Specifically, the experimental results presented in this paper provide justifications concerning the superiority of AISbased classification in identifying instances from the minority class.","PeriodicalId":243348,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Workshop on Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"456 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127494483","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 ease the engineering process for such systems, organic computing principles, e.g., self-adaptation and self-optimization, offer a solution. Hence, machine learning paradigms are needed which work online and which can cope with such dynamically varying uncertainties, but still operate safely all the time. In this work, such a learning paradigm is developed based on the Organic Robot Control Architecture and the incremental learning scheme Directed Self-Learning. It is combined with an explicit uncertainty representation. The core idea is to use a strategy blending scheme to show a good performance and improve it by self-optimizing learning on the one hand in case of high trust, or low uncertainty, respectively. On the other hand, a robust fallback-system is used to ensure safety in situations of high uncertainty. Of course, in such situations learned knowledge has to be protected from corruption. The feasibility of this approach is demonstrated in a simulated pick-and-place scenario with unknown, but changing load masses.","PeriodicalId":243348,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Workshop on Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (EAIS)","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131177014","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}
