The objective of this study is to develop a method that is able to realize autonomous traveling for tractor-like robot on the slope terrain. A neural network (NN) and genetic algorithms (GAs) have been used for resolving nonlinear problems in this system. The NN is applied to create a vehicle simulator that is capable to describe the motion of the tractor robot on the slope, while it is impossible by the common dynamics way. Using this vehicle simulator, a control law optimized by GAs was established and installed in the computer to control the steering wheel of tractor robot. The autonomous traveling carried out on a 14-degree slope had initial successful results.

This paper describes a recognition method of a road direction for an autonomous vehicle based on magnetic sensors. Using the sensors mounted on a vehicle and the magnetic markers embedded along the center of road, the autonomous vehicle can recognize a road direction and control a steering angle. Using the front lateral deviation of a vehicle and the rear one, the road direction is calculated. The analysis of magnetic field, the acquisition technique of training data, the training method of neural network and the computer simulation are presented. According to the computer simulation, the proposed method is simulated, and its performance is verified. Also, the experimental test is confirmed its reliability.

In this paper, an intelligent force control technique is applied to an autonomous helicopter. Although most research on the autonomous helicopter system is about navigation and control, force control of an autonomous helicopter system is quite new and not presented yet. After controlling the position of the helicopter by the LQR method, force control is applied. The adaptive impedance force control algorithm is introduced and tested to regulate the desired force under unknown location and stiffness of the environment. To compensate for uncertainty from outer disturbance, a neural network is added to form an intelligent force control framework. Simulation studies show that the proposed force control algorithm works well.

In this paper, we propose the self-autonomous algorithm for mobile robot system (MRS). The proposed mobile robot system which is learned by learning with the neural network can trace the target at the same distances. The mobile robot can use ultrasonic sensors and calculate the distance between target and mobile robot. By teaming the setup distance, current distance and command velocity, the robot can do intelligent self-autonomous drive. We use the neural network and back-propagation algorithm as a tool of learning. As a result, we confirm the ability of tracing the target with proposed mobile robot.

This paper presents an intelligent control approach for lateral position control of an autonomous four wheel steered snowplowing robotic vehicle. The vehicle is built for removing snow on the highway. Dynamics of the vehicle is derived and linearized for LQR control. Lateral position is controlled by the LQR method first, then the neural network control technique is introduced to improve tracking performances under the presence of load. The feasibility of using four wheel steering control is investigated by simulation studies of lateral position tracking of the Ford F-250 truck model. Performances of a LQR control method and a neural network control method under virtual snowplowing situation are compared.

본 논문에서는 Visual 동시적 위치추정 및 지도작성(SLAM : Simultaneous Localization and Mapping)기술을 응용하여 실내에서 생성된 SLAM 맵을 기반으로 지정된 목적지에 물건을 배달하는 자율주행 차량 플랫폼을 제안하였다. 실내에서 SLAM 맵을 생성하기 위해 소형 자율주행 차량 플랫폼의 상단에 SLAM 맵 생성을 위한 심도 카메라를 설치하고 SLAM 맵 속에서의 정확한 위치추정을 하기 위해 추적 카메라를 장착하여 구현하였다. 또한, 목적지의 표찰을 인식하기 위해 합성곱 신경망(CNN : Convolutional neural network)을 사용하여 목적지에 정확하게 도착할 수 있도록 주행 알고리즘을 적용하여 설계하였다. 실내 배송 자율주행 차량을 실제로 제작하였고 SLAM 맵의 정확도 확인과 CNN을 통한 목적지 표찰 인식 실험을 수행하였다. 결과적으로 표찰 인식의 성공률을 향상시켜 구현한 실내 배송용 자율주행 차량의 활용 적합성 여부를 확인하였다.

Lately, many studies have been progressed for the protection human's lives and property as holding in check accidents happened by human's carelessness or mistakes. One part of these is the development of an autonomouse vehicle. General control method of vision-based autonomous vehicle system is to determine the navigation direction by analyzing lane images from a camera, and to navigate using proper control algorithm. In this paper, characteristic points are abstracted from lane images using lane recognition algorithm with sobel operator. And then the vehicle is controlled using two proposed auto-steering algorithms. Two steering control algorithms are introduced in this paper. First method is to use the geometric relation of a camera. After transforming from an image coordinate to a vehicle coordinate, a steering angle is calculated using Ackermann angle. Second one is using a neural network algorithm. It doesn't need to use the geometric relation of a camera and is easy to apply a steering algorithm. In addition, It is a nearest algorithm for the driving style of human driver. Proposed controller is a multilayer neural network using Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation learning algorithm which was estimated much better than other methods, i.e. Conjugate Gradient or Gradient Decent ones.

Trajectory prediction is an essential element for driving autonomous vehicles, and various trajectory prediction models have emerged with the development of deep learning technology. Convolutional neural network (CNN) is the most commonly used neural network architecture for extracting the features of visual images, and the latest models exhibit high performances. This study was conducted to identify an efficient CNN backbone model among the components of deep learning models for trajectory prediction. We changed the existing CNN backbone network of multiple-trajectory prediction models used as feature extractors to various state-of-the-art CNN models. The experiment was conducted using nuScenes, which is a dataset used for the development of autonomous vehicles. The results of each model were compared using frequently used evaluation metrics for trajectory prediction. Analyzing the impact of the backbone can improve the performance of the trajectory prediction task. Investigating the influence of the backbone on multiple deep learning models can be a future challenge.

In general, the dynamics of autonomous underwater vehicles(AUVs) are highly nonlinear and time-varying, and the hydrodynamic coefficients of vehicles are hard to estimate accurately because of the variations of these coefficients with different navigation conditions. For this reason, in this paper, the control gain function is assumed to be unknown and the exogenous input term is assumed to be unbounded, although it still satisfies certain restrict condition. And these two kinds of wild assumptions have been seldom handled simultaneously in one system because of the difficulty of stability analysis. Under the above two relaxed assumptions, a robust neural network control scheme is presented for autonomous diving control of an AUV, and can guarantee that all the signals in the closed-loop system are UUB (uniformly ultimately bounded). Some practical features of the proposed control law are also discussed.
