This paper presents a new approach to the design of neural-fuzzy controller for the speed and azimuth control of a track vehicle. The proposed control scheme uses a Gaussian function as a unit function in the frzzy-neural network, and back propagaton algorithm to train the fuzzy-neural network controller in the framework of the specialized learning architecture. It is proposed a learning controller consisting of two neural network-fuzzy based on independent reasoning and a connection net with fixed weights to simply the neural networks-fuzzy. The performance of the proposed controller is shown by performing the computer simulation for trajectory tracking of the speed and azimuth of a track vehicle driven by two independent wheels.

This paper proposes recognition system using multi-backpropagation neural networks rather than single backpropagation neural network to enhance the rate of character recognition resultsing from extracting the region of velhicle number in that the image of vehicle number plate from CCD camera has a distinguish feature, that is, illumination of a pattern. The experiment in this paper shows an output that the method using multi-backpropagation neural networks rather than signal backpropagation neural network takes less training time for computation and also has higher recognition rage of vehicle number.

This paper presents sensor network based autonomous vehicle system using a proposed image processing algorithm. The proposed image processing algorithm consists of pre-processing and five-stage image processing: coordinate calculation, driving area decision, line segment calculation, steeling decision, and acceleration decision. We evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm on both straight road and curved road. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm works well for autonomous vehicles. However, control accuracy of the proposed algorithm decreases as speed is increasing.

The important issue for intra-city vehicle scheduling is to measure and store actual vehicle travel speeds between customer locations. Travel speeds(and times) in nearly all metropolitan areas change drastically during the day because of congestion in certain parts of the city road network. We propose three models for estimating departure time-dependent travel speeds between locations that relieve much burden for the data collection and computer storage requirements. Two of the three models use a least squares method and the rest one employs a neural network trained with the back-propagation rule. On a real-world study using the travel speed data collected in Seoul, we found out that the neural network model is more accurate than the other two models.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive mechanism based on humoral immune algorithm and neural network identifier technique. It is also applied for an autonomous guided vehicle (AGV) system. When the immune algorithm is applied to the PID controller, there exists the case that the plant is damaged due to the abrupt change of PID parameters since the parameters are almost adjusted randomly. To slove this problem, we use the neural network identifier technique for modeling the plant humoral immune algorithm (HIA) which performs the parameter tuning of the considered model, respectively. Finally, the experimental results for control of steering and speed of AGV system illustrate the validity of the proposed control scheme. Also, these results for the proposed method show that it has better performance than other conventional controller design method such as PID controller.

Until recently, the inductive loop detecters(ILD) have been used to collect a traffic information in a part of traffic manangment and control. The ILD is able to collect a various traffic data such as a occupancy time and non-occupancy time, traffic volume, etc. The occupancy time of these is very important information for traffic control algorithms, which is required a high accuracy. This accuracy may be improved by classifying a vehicle type with ILD. To classify a vehicle type based on a Analog Digital Converted data collect form ILD, this study used a typical and modifyed statistic method and General Learning Vector Quantization unsuperviser neural network model and a hybrid model of GLVQ and statistic method, As a result, the hybrid model of GLVQ neural network model is superior to the other methods.

This paper suggests a multi-attribute dispatching rule for an automated guided vehicle(AGV). The attributes to be considered are the number of queues in outgoing buffers of workstations, distance between an idle AGV and a workstation with a job waiting for the service of vehicle, and the number of queues in input buffers of the destination workstation of a job. The suggested rule is based on the simple additive weighting method using a normalized score for each attribute. A neural network approach is applied to obtain an appropriate weight vector of attributes based on the current status of the manufacturing system. Backpropagation algorithm is used to train the neural network model. The proposed dispatching rules and some single attribute rules are compared and analyzed by simulation technique. A number of simulation runs are executed under different experimental conditions to compare the several performance measures of the suggested rules and some existing single attribute dispatching rules each other.

This paper proposes a fault detection method for a Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) with overactuated system. Current status information for fault detection is expressed as a scalogram image. The scalogram image is obtained by wavelet-transforming the USV's control input and sensor information. The fault detection scheme is based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm. The previously generated scalogram data was transferred learning to GoogLeNet algorithm. The data are generated as scalogram images in real time, and fault is detected through a learning model. The result of fault detection is very robust and highly accurate.

This paper presents a design method of the wavelet neural network(WNN) controller based on a direct adaptive control scheme for the intelligent control of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle(AUV) steering systems. The neural network is constructed by the wavelet orthogonal decomposition to form a wavelet neural network that can overcome nonlinearities and uncertainty. In our control method, the control signals are directly obtained by minimizing the difference between the reference track and original signal of AUV model that is controlled through a wavelet neural network. The control process is a dynamic on-line process that uses the wavelet neural network trained by gradient-descent method. Through computer simulations, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control method.
