In autonomous navigation of mobile robots the dynamic environment is a source of problems. Because it is not possible to model all the possible conditions, the key point in the robot control is to design a system that is adaptable to different conditions and robust in dynamic environments. This study presents a reactive control system for a Khepera robot with the ability to navigate in a dynamic environment for reaching goal objects. The main motivation of this research is to design a robot control, which is robust to sensor errors and sudden changes and adaptable to different environments and conditions. Behavior based approach is used with taking the advantage of fuzzy reasoning in design. Experiments are made on Webots, which is a simulation environment for Khepera robot.

A control system using behavior hierarchies and neuro-fuzyy approach
Arslan, Didem; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur (null; 2005-09-14)
In agent-based systems, especially in autonomous mobile robots, modelling the environment and its changes is a source of problems. It is not always possible to effectively model the uncertainty and the dynamic changes in complex, real-world domains. Control systems must be robust to changes and must be able to handle the uncertainties to overcome this problem. In this study, a reactive behaviour based agent control system is modelled and implemented. The control system is tested in a navigation task using a...
A behavior based robot control system architecture for navigation environments with randomly allocated walls
Altuntaş, Berrin; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Department of Computer Engineering (2003)
Integration of knowledge to the control system of a robot is the best way to emerge intelligence to robot. The most useful knowledge for a robot control system that aims to visit the landmarks in an environment is the enviromental knowledge. The most natural representation of the robot2s environment is a map. This study presents a behavior based robot control system architecture that is based on subsumption and motor schema architectures and enables the robot to construct the map of the environment by using...

Optimal control of a half circular compliant legged monopod
Özkan Aydın, Yasemin; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal; Saranlı, Afşar; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
Legged robots have complex architecture because of their nonlinear dynamics and unpredictable ground contact characteristics. They can be also dynamically stable and exhibit dynamically dexterous behaviors like running, jumping, flipping which require complex plant models that may sometimes be difficult to build. In this thesis, we focused on half circular compliant legged monopod that can be considered as a reduced-order dynamical model for the hexapod robot, called RHex. The main objective of this thesis ...
A Deep Incremental Boltzmann Machine for Modeling Context in Robots
Doğan, Fethiye Irmak; Çelikkanat, Hande; Kalkan, Sinan (2018-05-25)
Context is an essential capability for robots that are to be as adaptive as possible in challenging environments. Although there are many context modeling efforts, they assume a fixed structure and number of contexts. In this paper, we propose an incremental deep model that extends Restricted Boltzmann Machines. Our model gets one scene at a time, and gradually extends the contextual model when necessary, either by adding a new context or a new context layer to form a hierarchy. We show on a scene classific...
