New research on the adaptive behavior of natural and synthetic agents.
Biomimetic Neural Learning for Intelligent Robots
This state-of-the-art survey contains selected papers contributed by researchers in intelligent systems, cognitive robotics, and neuroscience including contributions from the MirrorBot project and from the NeuroBotics Workshop 2004. The research work presented demonstrates significant novel developments in biologically inspired neural models for use in intelligent robot environments and biomimetic cognitive behavior.
Towards Service Robots for Everyday Environments
People have dreamed of machines, which would free them from unpleasant, dull, dirty and dangerous tasks and work for them as servants, for centuries if not millennia. Service robots seem to finally let these dreams come true. But where are all these robots that eventually serve us all day long, day for day? A few service robots have entered the market: domestic and professional cleaning robots, lawnmowers, milking robots, or entertainment robots. Some of these robots look more like toys or gadgets rather than real robots. But where is the rest? This is a question, which is asked not only by customers, but also by service providers, care organizations, politicians, and funding agencies. The a...
Mobile Robots Navigation
The presence of mobile robots in diverse scenarios is considerably increasing to perform a variety of tasks. Among them, many developments have occurred in the fields of ground, underwater, and flying robotics. Independent of the environment where they move, navigation is a fundamental ability of mobile robots so that they can autonomously complete high-level tasks. This problem can be efficiently addressed through the following actions: First, it is necessary to perceive the environment in which the robot has to move, and extract some relevant information (mapping problem). Second, the robot must be able to estimate its position and orientation within this environment (localization problem)...
Simultaneous Tracking and Shape Estimation of Extended Objects
This work is concerned with the simultaneous tracking and shape estimation of a mobile extended object based on noisy sensor measurements. Novel methods are developed for coping with the following two main challenges: i) The computational complexity due to the nonlinearity and high-dimensionality of the problem, and ii) the lack of statistical knowledge about possible measurement sources on the extended object.
