چکیده

This paper presents a logical account of sensor data assimilation in a mobile robot, based on abduction. Unlike previous work, the present formulation handles sensor noise as well as motor noise. In addition, it incorporates two significant technical advances. The use of determining fluents to deal with non-determinism obviates the need for a special form of abduction, and the use of uncertain object boundaries alleviates a problem with multiple explanations.

Government and Central Bank Interaction under Uncertainty: A Differential Games Approach

Abstract Today, debt stabilization in an uncertain environment is an important issue. In particular, the question how fiscal and monetary authorities should deal with this uncertainty is of much importance. Especially for some developing countries such as Iran, in which on average 60 percent of government revenues comes from oil, and consequently uncertainty about oil prices has a large effec...

Robust Identification of Smart Foam Using Set Mem-bership Estimation in A Model Error Modeling Frame-work

The aim of this paper is robust identification of smart foam, as an electroacoustic transducer, considering unmodeled dynamics due to nonlinearities in behaviour at low frequencies and measurement noise at high frequencies as existent uncertainties. Set membership estimation combined with model error modelling technique is used where the approach is based on worst case scenario with unknown but...

A Possibilistic Planner that Deals with Non-Determinism and Contingency

This paper proposes a new planning approach that authorizes an autonomous robot to reason about the inaccuracy of the world description and of its possible evolutions. We represent the uncertainty with the possibility theory; this allows us to distinguish between two types of nondeterminism: a non-determinism from insufficient modeling and a non-determinism from uncertainty. Besides, we introdu...

Uncertainty Analysis in MRI-based Polymer Gel Dosimetry

Background: Polymer gel dosimeters combined with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be used for dose verification of advanced radiation therapy techniques. However, the uncertainty of dose map measured by gel dosimeter should be known. The purpose of this study is to investigate the uncertainty related to calibration curve and MRI protocol for MAGIC (Methacrylic and Ascorbic acid in Gelatin I...

Developing 3 dimensional model for estimation of acoustic power in urban pathways in geo-spatial information system framework

Around the word, traffic growth is causing growing air and noise pollution. Noise levels in a given area are affected by traffic on the streets as well as effective factors, including existing infrastructure and industrial centers, and so on. The purpose of this research is to model and estimate the amount of acoustic emission in the streets of Tehran's third district, using the 3D spatial info...
