In the proposed new structure, the proximal policy optimization (PPO) and proportional derivative (PD) are combined. First, the PD controller is used to predict the interception position. Then, the PPO algorithm is trained to control the USV, so that it can move quickly to the predicted position. By comparing with the traditional PPO algorithm, the simulation results verify that the proposed algorithm spends less time solving the problem of the USV interception of a moving target.","PeriodicalId":272227,"journal":{"name":"2022 37th Youth Academic Annual Conference of Chinese Association of Automation (YAC)","volume":"35 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128765090","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}

To realize the translation motion in an RCM mechanism, the proximal actuation method is generally adopted, which has the disadvantages of reducing the vision field, offsetting the RCM point, and increasing the moment of inertia. This paper proposes a surgery robot with a novel RCM configuration realized by a three-rhombus mechanism. The great merit of this robot is the actuators are all mounted on the base. The kinematics and singularity of the mechanism are investigated analytically. Parameter optimization is done under the given rotation angle of 90° and feed depth of 47.8 mm, respectively. Preliminary simulations are conducted in SolidWorks environment to validate the effectiveness of the RCM mechanism.","PeriodicalId":272227,"journal":{"name":"2022 37th Youth Academic Annual Conference of Chinese Association of Automation (YAC)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132554191","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}

We propose a temporal line segment detector based on subanchor point and line segment combination approach, which gives more accurate results without adjusting the parameters. The speed remains essentially the same as the fastest running line segment detectors (EDLines) existing and is 89’ faster compared to the conventional LSD line extraction algorithm. The proposed algorithm introduces bilateral filtering and line segment combination methods based on EDLines. The bilateral filter is used after the image input to remove the noise and retain the edge information of the image well. The short line segments that exist homologous are combined to generate clearer long line segments, which overcomes the problem of broken lines in LSD algorithm and excessive filtering of short line segments in EDLines algorithm. We validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in experiments of line feature extraction for multiple sets of images in different scenes.","PeriodicalId":272227,"journal":{"name":"2022 37th Youth Academic Annual Conference of Chinese Association of Automation (YAC)","volume":"118 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128151066","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}
