A Genetic Programming Framework for Error Recovery in Robotic Assembly Systems

چکیده
In this paper, the advantages and performance of genetic programming in use of error recovery planning in robotic assembly systems is discussed. Existing systems use polynomial time planning techniques or heuristics to produce error recovery plans. However, these systems require translation of the generated plans to working controller codes. An alternative approach could be the use of Genetic Programming to produce recovery plans in robot language itself. A framework is developed and coupled with a 3D robotic simulation software for the generation of error recovery logic in assembly systems. The developed architecture uses a genetic programming system based on both deterministic and probabilistic crossover and variable mutation schemes. Performance of the system is evaluated with the simulations made on a three dimensionally modeled automated assembly line. The obtained results showed that the deterministic crossover operator improves the evolution of the plans and the system is efficient of generating robust recovery plans for different error states.

Error Recovery by the Use of Sensory Feedback and Reference Measurements for Robotic Assembly
Industrial robots need instrument or parts transport to do which requires coordinate to show the robot’s instrument, parts and body. When investigating the robot location, we are usually interested in measuring its location relative to a reference coordinate system. In this system it is attempted to make the assemble direction smaller by designing the sensor board and making use of an instrumen...
متن کاملOff-Line Error Prediction, Diagnosis and Recovery using Virtual Assembly Systems
Automated assembly systems often stop their operation due to the unexpected failures occurred during their assembly process. Since these large-scale systems are composed of many parameters, it is difficult to anticipate all possible types of errors with their likelihood of occurrence. Several systems were developed in the literature, focusing on on-line diagnosing and recovering the assembly pr...

Unexpected failures are one of the most important problems, which cause costly shutdowns in an assembly line. Generally the recovery process is done by the experts or automated error recovery logic controllers embedded in the system. The previous work in the literature is focused on the “on-line” recovery of the assembly lines which makes the process, time and money consuming. Therefore a novel...
متن کاملA chance-constrained multi-objective model for final assembly scheduling in ATO systems with uncertain sub-assembly availability
A chance-constraint multi-objective model under uncertainty in the availability of subassemblies is proposed for scheduling in ATO systems. The on-time delivery of customer orders as well as reducing the company's cost is crucial; therefore, a three-objective model is proposed including the minimization of1) overtime, idletime, change-over, and setup costs, 2) total dispersion of items’ deliver...
متن کاملDesigning a Robust Control Scheme for Robotic Systems with an Adaptive Observer
This paper introduces a robust task-space control scheme for a robotic system with an adaptive observer. The proposed approach does not require the availability of the system states and an adaptive observer is developed to estimate the state variables. These estimated states are then used in the control scheme. First, the dynamic model of a robot is derived. Next, an observer-based robust contr...
