The sensors are used consist of Inertial Measurement Unit (a 3- axis gyroscope with uncompensated bias and a 3-axis accelerometer) and a 3-axis magnetometer. To improve the accuracy of attitude estimation an extended Kalman filter (EKF) with a switching rule is used to fuse the sensory information. In practical applications, under the external acceleration, the output of accelerometer is not reliable due to its sensivity to vibration and non-separability the dynamic acceleration and gravity. To overcome this problem a switching rule is designed based on acceleration detection. If external acceleration is detected in rigid body movement, only magnetometer outputs will be used in EKF equations; otherwise, both of the accelerometer and magnetometer outputs will be employed. Through numerical simulations, the efficiency of the proposed method is illustrated under external acceleration.","PeriodicalId":437944,"journal":{"name":"2015 AI & Robotics (IRANOPEN)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134471703","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 dynamic mobile path planning, the goal is to find an optimal feasible path from starting point to target point with various obstacles, as well as smoothness and safety in the proposed path. Pattern search (PS) algorithm, Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are used to find an optimal path for mobile robots to reach to target point with obstacle avoidance. For showing the success of the proposed method, first they are applied to two different paths with a dynamic environment in obstacles. The first results show that the PSO algorithms are converged and minimize the objective function better that the others, while PS has the lower time compared to other algorithms in the initial and modified environment. The second test path is in the z-type environment that we compare the mentioned algorithms on it. Also in this environment, the same result is repeated.","PeriodicalId":437944,"journal":{"name":"2015 AI & Robotics (IRANOPEN)","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121715127","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}

The dynamic behavior of robotic system in response to environment is prescribed by an impedance model. This model is certain and linear while the robot manipulator is uncertain and nonlinear. So the major challenge is overcoming uncertainty and nonlinearity to dominate the desired impedance model. This paper presents a robust impedance control strategy based on Variable Structure Model Reaching Control (VSMRC) and Function Approximation Techniques (FAT). FAT is based on Fourier series approximation. In contrast to other existing methods, the proposed approach includes two important properties. Firstly, it is robust against fast changes in uncertainty due to increased speed of convergence in Fourier series approximation. Secondly, it does not require uncertainties bound to be known. This scheme is simulated on an industrial selective compliance assembly robot arm (SCARA). Simulation results verify the theory and confirm the effectiveness of presented technique.","PeriodicalId":437944,"journal":{"name":"2015 AI & Robotics (IRANOPEN)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114217245","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}

While Correlation-based prediction schemes were shown to perform well, they suffer from some limitations. In This paper we present an extension toward Pearson Correlation Coefficient measure for cases which does not exist similarity between users by using it.

In this paper, we propose a new method, using higher-order singular value decomposition (HOSVD) for extracting the concept of the words from word-document-time three-dimensional tensor and then select important sentences with more cosine similarity to this concept. In the following, we measure WordNet-based semantic similarity between sentences and remove redundancy sentences with less importance.

For this purpose, an algorithm which is based on potential function is proposed. Moreover, in order to pass a planned trajectory, a feedback linearization controller is used to guide the robot. By the use of this method, an underwater robot would be able to predict and pass a safe trajectory by awareness of its own and obstacle's positions. Dynamic equations of 6 DOFs for an underwater robot are proposed and trajectory optimization of a particle considering obstacles in trying to attain a fixed or moving target in 3D coordinate space is discussed. The common potential functions are modified in order to solve the problems of inertial and cycling trap and to increase chance of implementation. Afterward, the proposed optimization method is implemented on robot dynamic model. To this end, the coordinate space is meshed with small cubes. Also, in order to control the robot, feedback linearization controller is used. It is shown that the robot would appropriately reach the planned target by this method.","PeriodicalId":437944,"journal":{"name":"2015 AI & Robotics (IRANOPEN)","volume":"223 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114469815","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}
