چکیده

The advantages and disadvantages of evolving neural control systems for mobile robots using genetic algorithms are investigated. The Khepera robot is trained using the evolutionary neural networks (E“) algorithm for the task of obstacle avoidance. The feasibility of using Q-learning for robot learning is also studied. It is found that Q-learning can be successfully used to train a robot and is more promising than the ENN algorithm on this case. The Webots simulation software has been used to carry out all the experiments.

Cooperative Control of Mobile Robots in Creating a Runway Platform for Quadrotor Landing

Multi-agent systems are systems in which several agents accomplish a mission in a cooperative manner. In this paper, a novel idea for the construction of a movable runway platform based on multi-agent systems is presented. It is assumed that an aerial agent (quadrotor) decides to make an emergency landing due to reasons such as a decrease in energy level or technical failure, while there is no ...

Control of Wheeled Mobile Manipulators with Flexible Suspension Considering Wheels Slip Effects

Wheeled mobile manipulators utilize both the locomotion capabilities of the wheeled platform and manipulation capacity of the arm. While the modelling and control of such systems have previously been studied, most of them have considered robots with rigid suspension and their wheels are subject to pure rolling conditions. To relax the aforementioned limiting assumptions, this research addresses...
