Review of Intelligent Robotics Algorithms for Assistive Agents

Assistive and rehabilitation robotics

Assistive robotics aims at developing solutions (mechatronic devices, systems and technologies) to assist and interact with individuals with reduced motor or cognitive abilities in order to increase their autonomy in a personal environment. Rehabilitation robotics proposes similar solutions for assisted therapy and objective functional assessment of these patients usually in a clinical context ...

Towards Socially Assistive Robotics

Personalized Socially Assistive Robotics

The start of the 21st century, with its confluence of scientific and technological sophistication, presents a unique opportunity for robotics to positively impact human quality of life. Significant and growing societal needs include the lack of personalized one-on-one care for the growing populations of elderly individuals, children with developmental disorders, and those with special life-long...

Search Algorithms in Intelligent Agents

In a distributed system, the task of finding relevant information and services in a timely manner is complex. When using traditional searching techniques across heterogeneous systems and multiple data formats, this task becomes nearly impossible. This paper will examine intelligent search algorithms that can be used to perform fast and reliable distributed searches. Some of the algorithms exami...

Intelligent Agents Review

Software intelligent agents, or simply agents, are one of the most important research areas in computer science and information technology. Plenty of work has been done on different aspects of agents development. This paper presents a survey of research activities in the development of intelligent agents. The survey categorizes the agent related work into three main theoretical based areas: (1)...
