چکیده
This paper describes a general approach for automatically programming a behavior-based robot. New behaviors are learned by trial and error using a performance feedback function as reinforcement. Two algorithms for behavior learning are described that combine techniques for propagating reinforcement values temporally across actions and spatially across states. A behavior-based robot called OBELIX (see Figure 1) is described that learns several component behaviors in an example task involving pushing boxes. An experimental study using the robot suggests two conclusions. One, the learning techniques are able to learn the individual behaviors, sometimes outperforming a handcoded program. Two, using a behavior-based architecture is better than using a monolithic architecture for learning the box pushing task.

متن کاملVeggieVision: a produce recognition system
We present an automatic produce ID system (“VeggieVision”), intended to ease the produce checkout process. The system consists of an integrated scale and imaging system with a user-friendly interface. When a produce item is placed on the scale, an image is taken. A variety of features, color, texture (shape, density), are then extracted. These features are compared to stored “signatures” which ...
متن کاملExtensible Shallow Parsing for Semantic Nets
This paper proposes a specific linguistic-based format for semantic networks in which nodes correspond to “open class” words. “Closed class” words and morphological elements form the basis for atomic link labels and node tags. A simple parser has been developed to transform written text into this representation. The properties of the resulting networks are discussed and psychologically inspired...
