The operational design domain (ODD) of autonomous vehicles needs to be expanded on highways and urban roads in light of the substantial commercialization of Level 3 autonomous vehicles. Therefore, this study developed a specific infrastructure autonomous vehicle-based cooperative driving service to ensure the driving safety of autonomous vehicles on city roads. The traffic operation efficiency, safety evaluation, and core evaluation indices for each service were selected and analyzed to study the effect of each service. The result of the analysis confirmed that the traffic operation efficiency and safety of autonomous vehicles were improved through the V2X communication-based autonomous cooperative driving service. On the whole, the significance of this study is in deriving the effect of the autonomous cooperative driving service based on V2X communication on urban roads with interrupting traffic flow.

Complex "lifelike" behaviors are composed of local interactions of individuals under fundamental rules of artificial life. In this paper, fundamental rules for cooperative group behaviors, "flocking" and "arrangement", of multiple autonomous mobile robots are represented by a small number of fuzzy rules. Fuzzy rules in Sugeno type and their related paramenters are automatically generated from clustering input-output data obtained from the algorithms the group behaviors. Simulations demonstrate the fuzzy rules successfully realize group intelligence of mobile robots.

The purpose of this paper is to establish discrete versions of the well-known Lyapunov's stability theorem and LaSalle's invariance theorem for a non-autonomous discrete dynamical system. Our proofs for these theorems are constructive in the sense that they are made by explicitly building a Lyapunov function for the system. A comparison between non-autonomous discrete dynamical systems and continuous dynamical systems is conducted.

독립된 자율로봇에서 머신비젼의 구동을 위해 본 논문에서는 DARS(Distributed Autonomous Robotic System)에 적용하기 위한 디지털 이미지 프로세싱을 연구하고, DARS의 개별 로봇에 이를 임베디드화하는 것을 연구한다. 따라서 로봇을 구동하기 위해 필요한 데이터를 CMOS 카메라로부터 수신하여 영상을 스캔한 후, 원영상을 신경망 알고리즘을 통해 클러스터링하여 필요한 데이터를 추출한다. 또 이를 사용자 컴퓨터 단말기 상에 디스플레이하고, 최종적으로 DARS의 자율 이동 로봇이 영상 데이터를 인지하여 특정한 선택 동작을 수행하도록 한다.

In this paper, we propose a new approach to intelligent motion and autonomous maneuvering of mobile robots using hybrid system. In high Level, the discrete states are defined by using the sensor-based search windows and the reference motions of a mobile robot as a low vevel are specified in the abstracted motions, The mobile robots can perform both the motion planning and autonomous maneuvering with obstacle avoidance in indoor navigation problem. Simulation and experimental results show that hybrid system approach is an effective method for the autonomous maneuvering in indoor environments.

We designed a family of completely autonomous mobile robots with local intelligence. Each robot has a number of on-board sensors, including vision, and does not rely on global positioning systems The on-board embedded controller is sufficient to analyze several low-resolution color images per second. This enables our robots to perform several complex tasks such as navigation, map generation, or providing intelligent group behavior. Not being limited to playing the game of soccer and being completely autonomous, we are also looking at a number of other interesting scenarios. The robots can communicate with each other, e.g. for exchanging positions, information about objects or just the local states they are currently in (e.g. sharing their current objectives with other robots in the group). We are particularly interested in the differences between a behavior-based approach versus a traditional control algorithm at this still very low level of action.

Conventional artificial intelligence systems are not properly responding under dynamically changing environments. To overcome this problem, reactive planning systems implementing new Al principles, called behavior-based Al or emergent computation, have been proposed and confirmed their usefulness. As another alternative, biological information processing systems may provide many feasible ideas to these problems. Immune system, among these systems, plays important roles to maintain its own system against dynamically changing environments. Therefore, immune system would provide a new paradigm suitable for dynamic problem dealing with unknown environments. In this paper, a new approach to behavior-based Al by paying attention to biological immune system is investigated. The feasibility of this method is confirmed by applying to behavior control of an autonomous mobile robot in cluttered environment.

This article studies asymptotic stability of non-auto nomous linear systems with time-dependent coefficient matrices {A(t)}_t∈ℝ. The classical theorem of Levinson has been widely used to science and engineering non-autonomous systems, but systems with defective eigenvalues could not be covered because such a family does not allow continuous diagonalization. We study systems where the family allows to have upper triangulation and to have defective eigenvalues. In addition to the wider applicability, working with upper triangular matrices in place of Jordan form matrices offers more flexibility. We interpret our and earlier works including Levinson's theorem from the perspective of invariant manifold theory.

This paper describes the implementation of an autonomous fuzzy logic controller. The controller is endowed with basic control principles and learning constructs which enable it to autonomously modify its control policy based on system performance. The controller lies dormant when system response is satisfactory but if rapidly initiates adaptation in real time when adverse performance is observed. The autonomous fuzzy controller is implemented on an Intel MCS-51 series micro-controller board using an inexpensive 8-bit Intel 8031 processor. The 11.06 MHz micro-controller operates at a rate exceeding 200 "global" look-up table reinforcements per second. This is important when developing practical on-line adaptive controllers for fast systems. It is also significant because an initial controller look-up table could be incorrect or non-existent. The relatively high learning rate enables the controller to learn to control a system even while it is controlling it.

An overview of our approach to autonomous navigation is presented showing how motion information can be integrated into existing navigation schemes. Particular attention is given to our short range motion estimation scheme which utilises a number of unique assumptions regarding the nature of the visual environment allowing a direct fusion of visual and range information. Graduated non-convexity is used to solve the resulting non-convex minimisation problem. Experimental results show the advantages of our fusion technique.
