In doing so a robot needs to perceive its environment to efficiently navigate through it. The navigation is possible only if the robot differentiates between different scenarios around it in real time. In this paper we present a semi-autonomous navigation strategy designed for low throughput interfaces. The task is to minimize the user input by intelligently interpreting and executing the commands. Analyzing the environment in real time, the robot selects the most probable action using collision free steering techniques which employ the Self Organizing Map in cooperation with Artificial Potential Field, in which both the user and an intelligent robot co-exist. The performance of the proposed navigation algorithm is confirmed with computer simulations and experiments using the Pioneer 3-AT mobile robot.","PeriodicalId":343718,"journal":{"name":"11th Symposium on Neural Network Applications in Electrical Engineering","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132037764","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 re-formulate the SR problem in terms of learning the mapping between LR-MRF and HR-MRF, which is generally non-linear. Instead of learning MSMRF parameters we use artificial neural networks to learn the desired mapping. The results compare favorably to more complex stat-of-the art techniques for 2 × 2 and 3 × 3 SR problem. We solve the SR problem using optical zoom as a cue by the proposed algorithm as well.

Solution of formation navigation in structured static environment is presented in this paper. It is assumed that high level planner is available, which generates collision free trajectory for leader robot. Leader robot is forced to track generated trajectory, while followers' trajectories are generated based on the trajectory realized by the real leader. Real environments contain large number of obstacles, which can be arbitrarily positioned. Hence, formation switching becomes necessary in cases when followers can collide with obstacles. In order to ensure trajectory tracking, as well as object avoidance, control structure with several conventional and fuzzy controllers of different roles (trajectory tracking, obstacle avoiding, vehicle avoiding and combined controller) has been adopted. Kinematic model of differentially driven two-wheeled mobile robot is assumed. Simulation results show the efficiency of the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":343718,"journal":{"name":"11th Symposium on Neural Network Applications in Electrical Engineering","volume":"92 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122525581","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}
