چکیده

One of the main objectives of robotic researches has been the use of autonomous agents to make “mundane” tasks. A typical task common in literature is fetching a document from an initial point local and deliver to a specified destination. In this work, a fuzzy system has been developed to manage a number of requests that a robot has to deliver, which are requested in real time. This system uses a set of fuzzy rules to define the priority of each request based on conditions such as the time limit to take the document from its source or the score acquired from a successful delivery. A modification of A* algorithm to plan paths and the potential field technique to manage navigation are used to guide the robot in the environment. Three different sets of fuzzy rules have been tested in order to compare their results with the known algorithm, firstin first-out, to attend the requests. The Player/Stage simulator has been used to make the tests. The results show that such approach is effective, obtaining better results than the first-in first-out algorithm in all tests performed with the three different sets of fuzzy rules and their objectives.

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...
