  • In this paper, as an ideal test bed for studies on multi-agent system, the multiple micro robot soccer playing system is introduced at first. The construction of such experimental system has involved lots of kinds of challenges such as sensors fusing, robot designing, vision processing, motion controlling, and especially the cooperation planning of those robots. So in this paper we want to stress emphasis on how to evolve the system automatically based on the model of behavior-based learning in multi-agent domain. At first we present such model in common sense and then apply it to the realistic experimental system . At last we will give some results showing that the proposed approach is feasi...

  • A controller described in this paper is designed for implicit generalised minimum varience controller with variable time delays in which the weighting polynominals are calculated to reduce the output and control signals variances. This paper is based on the fact that the pole-assigment equation may have multiple solutions if the weighting polynominals are not of minimal order. It is shown that the larger order of the weighting polynominals increment the better is the stochastic behavior of the closed-loop system with variable time delays without changs in the deterministic behavior of the system. Based on this theory, the controller is applied to position control of a three-link manipulater with parameter uncertainty.

  • The IEEE 802.4 priority mechanism can be used to handle multiple data access classes of traffic. Several timers are used to realize the priority mechanism. The performance and stability of a token bus network depend on the assignment of such timers. In this peper, we present a dynamic timer assignment algorithm for the token passing bus network. The presented algorithm has simple structure for real-time applications and adaptively controls the set of initial timer values according to the offered traffic load. The assignment of the set of timers becomes easy due to the presented algorithm. Based on the iterative algorithm, some solutions such as mean waiting time are derived.

  • An electronically Scannable microphone system is in the Planning stage. For this Purpose, a multiple microphone array with controllable delay is available. To achieve effective point-listening characteristics, we proposed an enclosed microphone array system with a complex weighting method. In this system, both the microphone arrangement and the value of the complex weighting are important. In this report, the construction of microphone array system and the signal-processing method are explained, and the calculation method for optimal complex weighting is also presented. A prototype experimental setup is designed and fabricated to verify the expected characteristics.

  • Evolving in artificial agent is an extremely difficult problem, but on the other hand, a challenging task. At present the studies mainly centered on single agent learning problem. In our case, we use simulated soccer to investigate multi-agent cooperative learning. Consider the fundamental differences in learning mechanism, existing reinforcement learning algorithms can be roughly classified into two types-that based on evaluation functions and that of searching policy space directly. Genetic Programming developed from Genetic Algorithms is one of the most well known approaches belonging to the latter. In this paper, we give detailed algorithm description as well as data construction that are necessary for learning single agent strategies at first. In following step moreover, we will extend developed methods into multiple robot domains. game. We investigate and contrast two different methods-simple team learning and sub-group loaming and conclude the paper with some experimental results.

  • This paper is pre-stage for getting EGI which can be used for modeling of an object. It discusses the construction of the vision processing system and its algorithm for getting needle diagram from tie object image. We realize the algorithm with monocular camera system, using Reflectance Map theory and photometric stereo method. We can calculate the surface normal at any point in the image if we take multiple images at the different lighting conditions. From the 3 images taken from different lighting conditions through the experiment, we get the needle diagrams of the sphere and the object. We confirm the validness of the surface, normal acquisition algorithm comparing the experimental needle diagram with the ideal one obtained from the surface normal of the known object.

  • In this paper, we present a framework for modeling and control of multiple mobile robots which cowork within a bounded workspace and limited resources. To achieve this goal, we adopt a formalism of discrete event system and supervisory control theory based on Petri nets. We can divide our whole story into two parts: first, we search the shortest path using the distance vector algorithm, and then we construct the control scheme from which a number of mobile robots can work within a bounded workspace without any collision. The use of Petri net modeling allows us In synthesize a controller which achieves a control specification for the desired closed-loop behavior efficiently. Finally, the usefulness of the proposed Petri net formalism is illustrated by a simulation study.

  • In this study, as a part developing an unmanned container terminal (UCT), Ive designed and implemented an Autonomous Ground Vehicle (AGV) that can deliver containers in the port fast and safely as they are scheduled. It is preferable to research the intelligent UCT/AGV for delivering containers all day long without causing any trouble. For the sake of safe and fast AGV driving, we implemented a multiple-sensor system with vision, ultrasonic, and IR sensors and we adapted the hight-speed wireless LAN that satisfies the IEEE 802.11 Standard for hi-directional communication between the main processor in AGV and a host computer. The Pentium-III processor board mounted on the bottom frame in AGV combines and computes the information from sensors and controls the AGV driving. There are also the 80C196KC micro-controllers to control the actuating and steering motors. In addition, a steering function that is defined newly in this paper is heavily concerned in the mechanical design, and it plays an important role when AGV moves along a curve. Experimental results show the fast and safe delivery operations are possible with this UCT/AGV

  • The conventional algorithms which identify and follow a moving target using a camera located at a fixed position are not appropriate for applying to the cases o( using mobile robots, due to their long processing time. This paper proposes a new tracking algorithm based on the sensing system which uses a line light with a single camera. The algorithm categirizes the motion patterns of a pair of mobile objects into parallel, branching, and merging motion, to decide of which objects the trajectories should be calculated to follow the reference object. Kalman Filter is used to estimate the trajectories of selected objects. The proposed algorithm has shown in the experiments that the mobile robot does not miss the target in most cases.
