Study of human-robot communication is one of the most important research areas. Among various communication media, any useful law we find in voice communication in human-human interactions, is significant in human-robot interactions too. Control strategy of most of such systems available at present is on/off control. These robots activate a function if particular word or phrase associated with that function can be recognized in the user utterance. Recently, there have been some researches on controlling robots using information rich fuzzy commands such as "go little slowly". However, in those works, although the voice command interpretation has been considered, learning from such commands has not been treated. In this paper, learning from such information rich voice commands for controlling a robot is studied. New concepts of the coach-player model and the sub-coach are proposed and such concepts are also demonstrated for a PA-10 redundant manipulator.

This paper proposes a layered protocol to interpret voice commands of the user´s own language to a machine, to control it in real time. The layers consist of speech signal capturing layer, lexical analysis layer, interpretation layer and finally activation layer, where each layer tries to mimic the human counterparts in command following. The contents of a continuous voice command are captured by using Hidden Markov Model based speech recognizer. Then the concepts of Artificial Neural Network are devised to classify the contents of the recognized voice command ...

The present paper shows the possible development of particle swarm optimization (PSO) based fuzzy-neural networks (FNN) which can be employed as an important building block in real life robot systems, controlled by voice-based commands. The PSO is employed to train the FNNs which can accurately output the crisp control signals for the robot systems, based on fuzzy linguistic spoken language commands, issued by an user. The FNN is also trained to capture the user spoken directive in the context of the present performance of the robot system. Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based automatic speech recognizers are developed, as part of the entire system, so that the system can identify important user directives from the running utterances. The system is successfully employed in a real life situation for motion control of a redundant manipulator.

Fuzzy Neural Network (FNN) is a compulsory element in a voice-controlled machine due to its inherent capability of interpreting imprecise natural language commands. To control such a machine, user's perception of imprecise words is very important because the words' meaning is highly subjective. This paper presents a voice based controller centered on an adaptable FNN to capture the user's perception of imprecise words. Conversational interface of the machine facilitates the learning through interaction. The system consists of a dialog manager (DM), the conversational interface, a Knowledge base, which absorbs user's perception and acts as a replica of human understanding of imprecise words,...
