The agents are modeled as nonholonomic wheeled mobile vehicles and Guaranteed Power Diagrams (GPD or GPVD) are used in order the robots to partition the workspace under the assumption that the locations of the agents are known within uncertainty circles. An online adaptive estimation algorithm is used for each agent to calculate the weight of its GPV-cell. So, the robots accomplish the coverage control to perform a collaborative task by giving larger portions of the workspace to the agents that have better actuation performances and smaller regions to the ones whose performances are worse than the other agents. Simulation results and ROS implementation show the effectiveness of the algorithm.","PeriodicalId":440618,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Control and Robots (ICCR)","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122417493","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 disadvantages of the underwater vehicle driven by propellers are that the thrust is difficult to control and the vision is easy to blurry by the sediment on the seabed. First, a new propulsion system that combined the thrusters and the propelled by flapping fins was proposed in this paper. The underwater vehicle consisted of following systems: mechanical structure, hardware system, software system, signal transmission parts. Then, the depth control model of underwater vehicle based on the transfer function was established and the classical PID control algorithm was used to complete the simulation. According to the simulation results, this paper established the control system. Finally, experiments were conducted on the depth control to study the simulation results. The experimental results showed that the underwater vehicle was able to achieve the various functions and could provide technical guidance for areas such as marine fishing.","PeriodicalId":440618,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Control and Robots (ICCR)","volume":"50 6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129910706","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 proposes a new method to solve the inverse kinematics model for 7-DoF manipulators. Specifically, it focuses on how to derive equations for the feasible space of the endpoint of each joint and correspondingly the feasible space of each arm-angle when the endpoint of the robot arm is given, which lays the foundation for the robotic arm to complete obstacle avoidance and optimal path planning tasks. First, the influence of the first three joints and the last three joints on the end position of the robotic arm is decoupled. Based on this decoupling, the relationship between the last three joint angles and the end position of the robotic arm is solved through the space vector. Furthermore, the relationship between the end position of the robotic arm and the first three joint angles is obtained through coordinate rotation. Finally, this paper validates the results by simulations.","PeriodicalId":440618,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Control and Robots (ICCR)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124003702","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 verify the effectiveness and value for real clinical application, position compensation and suturing experiments are performed. Experiments results show position tracking errors are reduced significantly.

In particular, the deep neural network, which is a field of machine learning, is widely used in artificial intelligence because it can process data that cannot be solved by conventional shallow neural networks more effectively. Implementation of a deep neural network is generally based on popularized neural networks with excellent generalization performance, which saves time and effort. However, it is difficult to guess which deep neural networks and optimization methods can achieve the best performance in their dataset. In this paper, we have tested the four convolutional neural networks (ConvNet) and four weight update methods. Experiments were conducted using a 5-fold cross-validation based on insect image dataset. As a result, the ResNet-50 and AdaDelta combination showed the best performance (89.98 ± 1.40)% in the insect dataset.","PeriodicalId":440618,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Control and Robots (ICCR)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130224162","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 these systems are to be used in small numbers with no coordination or even awareness of each other in most cases, some applications could benefit from utilizing (smaller-size) UGVs in quantities, featuring a swarming behavior. Among these possible applications are operations in an urban area, which due to its complexity represents a challenging multidimensional environment for ground warfare. This paper presents guidance strategies for a search and destroy mission developed for some generic UGV swarms; and through a series of computer simulations evaluates their feasibility and effectiveness in executing such a mission in indoor as well as outdoor urban environments. The developed simulation allows varying many mission parameters, thus enabling a high degree of authenticity in terms of modeling a variety of real-world situations when different environments, platforms, sensors, and weapons are used. As such, this simulation environment maybe used as a tool, assisting in choosing key mission parameters to maximize the outcome of potential future engagements.","PeriodicalId":440618,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Control and Robots (ICCR)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134341667","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}
