A Comparison of Decision Making Criteria and Optimization Methods for Active Robotic Sensing
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work presents a comparison of decision making criteria and optimization methods for active sensing in robotics. Active sensing incorporates the following aspects: (i) where to position sensors, and (ii) how to make decisions for next actions, in order to maximize information gain and minimize costs. We concentrate on the second aspect: “Where should the robot move at the next time step?”. Pros and cons of the most often used statistical decision making strategies are discussed. Simulation results from a new multisine approach for active sensing of a nonholonomic mobile robot are given.

Active Robotic Sensing as Decision Making with Statistical Methods
Active robotic sensing is a large field aimed at providing robotic systems with tools and methods for decision making under uncertainty, e.g. in a changing environment and lack of sufficient information. Active sensing (AS) incorporates the following aspects: (i) where to position sensors, (ii) how to make decisions for next actions in order to extract maximum information from the sensor data, ...

متن کاملSensitivity Analysis in the QUALIFLEX and VIKOR Methods
The sensitivity analysis for multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems is important for two reasons: First, the decision matrix as the source of the results of a decision problem is inaccurate because it sorts the alternatives in each criterion inaccurately. Second, the decision maker may change his opinions in a time period because of changes in the importance of the criteria and in the ...
