Spatial Representation and Reasoning for Robot Mapping: A Shape-Based Approach (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics)

Springer, 2008

This book demonstrates bene?ts of abstract and qualitative reasoning that have not received much attention in the context of autonomous robotics before. Bremen, Christian Freksa December 2007 Director of the SFB/TR 8 Spatial Cognition Preface This book addresses spatial representations and reasoning techniques for - bile robot mapping,...

Bio-Inspired Artificial Intelligence: Theories, Methods, and Technologies (Intelligent Robotics and Autonomous Agents)

MIT Press, 2008

New approaches to artificial intelligence spring from the idea that intelligence emerges as much from cells, bodies, and societies as it does from evolution, development, and learning. Traditionally, artificial intelligence has been concerned with reproducing the abilities of human brains; newer approaches take inspiration from a wider range of...

Swarm Intelligence: Introduction and Applications (Natural Computing Series)

Springer, 2008

The laws that govern the collective behavior of social insects, flocks of birds, or fish schools continue to mesmerize researchers. While individuals are rather unsophisticated, in cooperation they can solve complex tasks, a prime example being the ability of ant colonies to find shortest paths between their nests and food sources. Task-solving...

Building Software for Simulation: Theory and Algorithms, with Applications in C++

John Wiley & Sons, 2010

Simulation has made possible systems that would otherwise be impracticable. The sophisticated controls in modern aircraft and automobiles, the powerful microprocessors in desktop computers, and space-faring robots are possible because simulations reduce substantially the need for expensive prototypes. These complicated systems are designed...

Nonlinear Kalman Filtering for Force-Controlled Robot Tasks (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics)

Springer, 2009

This monograph focuses on how to achieve more robot autonomy by means of reliable processing skills. "Nonlinear Kalman Filtering for Force-Controlled Robot Tasks " discusses the latest developments in the areas of contact modeling, nonlinear parameter estimation and task plan optimization for improved estimation accuracy. Kalman...

Robot Building for Beginners, Third Edition

Apress, 2015

"I wrote this book because I love building robots. I want you to love building robots, too. It took me a while to learn about many of the tools and parts in amateur robotics. Perhaps by writing about my experiences, I can give you a head start."--David Cook

Robot Building for Beginners, Third...

Fundamentals of Robotics: Linking Perception to Action (Machine Perception and Artificial Intelligence, 54)

World Scientific Publishing, 2003

Tomorrow's robots, which includes the humanoid robot, can perform task like tutoring children, working as tour guides, driving humans to and from work, do the family shopping etc. Tomorrow's robots will enhance lives in ways we never dreamed possible. No time to attend the decisive meeting on Asian strategy? Let your robot go for you and make the...

Advances in Robot Control: From Everyday Physics to Human-Like Movements

Springer, 2006

Robotics is still a young science, but we can already identify the people who defined its primary course of development. Suguru Arimoto is one of them. His early works laid the foundations of what nowadays is called modern robot control, and we believe it is both appropriate and necessary to write a book on recent advances in this field in the...

Autonomous Robots and Agents (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2007

Robots and autonomous agents have permeated every aspect of human life. They are not only omnipresent on the shop floors; they have pervaded our homes and are around us everywhere. Design methodologies and implementation techniques of intelligent machines are making progress in leaps and bounds. Smart interaction, cooperation, and pro-activeness...

Tactile Sensing and Display: Haptic Feedback For Minimally Invasive Surgery And Robotics

John Wiley & Sons, 2012

Comprehensively covers the key technologies for the development of tactile perception in minimally invasive surgery

Covering the timely topic of tactile sensing and display in minimally invasive and robotic surgery, this book comprehensively explores new techniques which could dramatically reduce the need for invasive...

Learning Classifier Systems: From Foundations to Applications

Springer, 2000

Learning classier systems are a machine learning paradigm introduced by John Holland in 1976. They are rule-based systems in which learning is viewed as a process of ongoing adaptation to a partially unknown environment through genetic algorithms and temporal dierence learning.

From the beginning, classier systems have attracted...
