چکیده

Machine learning techniques and algorithms are prevalent in robotics, and have been used for computer vision, grasping, and legged walking. Reinforcement learning approaches have been developed over the past 15 years, with modern techniques using continuous action spaces for various robotic applications. Policy gradient learning allows various optimization techniques to quickly optimize robotic tasks, but gradient-based optimization can suffer from problems with stochastic objective functions. KLearn uses a stochastic optimization system to optimize the mean of the objective function. The optimization algorithm is applied to a simulated robot.

Optimization of fuzzy controller for an SMA-actuated artificial finger robot

The purpose of this paper is to design and optimize an intelligent fuzzy-logic controller for a three-degree of freedom (3DOF) artificial finger with shape-memory alloy (SMA) wire actuators. The robotic finger is constructed using three SMA wires as tendons to bend each phalanx of the finger around its revolute joint and three torsion springs which return the phalanxes to their original positio...

A Q-learning Based Continuous Tuning of Fuzzy Wall Tracking

A simple easy to implement algorithm is proposed to address wall tracking task of an autonomous robot. The robot should navigate in unknown environments, find the nearest wall, and track it solely based on locally sensed data. The proposed method benefits from coupling fuzzy logic and Q-learning to meet requirements of autonomous navigations. Fuzzy if-then rules provide a reliable decision maki...

Optimization techniques applied to multiple manipulators for path planning and torque minimization

This paper presents the formulation and application of a strategy for the determination of an optimal trajectory for a multiple robotic configuration. Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Simulated Annealing (SA) have been used as the optimization techniques and results obtained from them compared. First, the motivation for multiple robot control and the current state-of-art in the field of cooperating r...
