The reaction of autonomous mobile robot to the dynamic, uncertain, and changeable environment is one of most difficult issue in control of the intelligent autonomous robot movement. Fuzzy control appears as a very useful tool for handling the intelligent reactive navigation. Present work deals with building of fuzzy behavior based reactive navigation of goal achieving, obstacle avoidance, and p...

There is a lack of autonomy on traditional RobotAssisted Therapy systems interacting with children with autism. To overcome this limitation a supervised autonomous robot controller is being built. In this paper we present a multilayer reactive system within such controller. The goal of this Reactive system is to allow the robot to appropriately react to the child’s behavior creating the illusio...

In this paper, our ongoing work on a hybrid, connectionist and belief-desire-intention (BDI) based, ratiohal agent architecture is described. The architecture makes specific commitments in order to achieve a harmony among the tasks of reasoning and acting. The architecture uses a bottom-up learning strategy to acquire rules for reactive behavior. Embedded Agents: From Reactive to

In this paper, we present atomic scale reactive molecular dynamics simulations for the interactions of reactive oxygen species (i.e., O, OH, O2, O3 and H2O2) with biomolecules, more specifically with bacterial peptidoglycan, as well as with a phospholipid bilayer. Furthermore, we have also investigated the behavior of these species in water, as a simple model system for the liquid film surround...

This paper describes HYSTE, a system for thorough exploration of unknown environments by autonomous mobile robots. The system is based on a hybrid reactive/deliberative architecture that adds a middle layer for mapping and localization [11]. The reactive layer is implemented using a behavior-based motor schema approach. Motor schemata are parametrized and grouped into distinct behaviors, each o...

Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most frequent type of in young children worldwide. In IDA, platelet behavior often unpredictable and complicated. It may lead to reactive thrombocytosis rarely thrombocytopenia.

In this essay we argue that infant temperament, defined as behavioral styles that appear early in life as a direct result of neurobiological factors, plays a significant role in the development and expression of social behavior. Temperament may be studied using a typological or dimensional approach and the relations between early temperament and later behavior can be examined in terms of homoty...

Two major types of aggression, proactive and reactive, are associated with contrasting expression, eliciting factors, neural pathways, development, and function. The distinction is useful for understanding the nature and evolution of human aggression. Compared with many primates, humans have a high propensity for proactive aggression, a trait shared with chimpanzees but not bonobos. By contrast...

Reactive systems have been described by means of several notations and formalisms, through which different orthogonal aspects are captured: their internal state behavior, their synchronization aspects and their communication component. Classical formalisms are intended in a large extent to capture static aspects of systems behavior. However, for systems which change dynamically in response to e...

We have used Monte Carlo methods and analytical techniques to investigate the influence of the characteristic parameters, such as pipe length, diffusion, adsorption, desorption, and reaction rate constants on the steady-state properties of single-file systems with a reaction. We looked at cases when all the sites are reactive and when only some of them are reactive. Comparisons between mean-fie...
