چکیده

We aim to develop an online method for learning robot behaviours that requires only a small number of trials, making it practical for use on a real robot. A hybrid method includes a symbolic planner, using qualitative reasoning, that constructs an approximate solution to a control problem. This approximate solution provides constraints for a numerical optimisation algorithm, which is used to refine the qualitative plan into an operational policy. The method is demonstrated on a multi-tracked robot intended for urban search and rescue.

Multi-Strategy Learning of Robotic Behaviours via Qualitative Reasoning

Introduction When given a task, an autonomous agent must plan a series of actions to perform in order to complete the goal. In robotics, planners face additional challenges as the domain is typically large (even infinite) continuous, noisy, and nondeterministic. Typically stochastic planning has been used to solve robotic control tasks. Particular success has been achieved with Model-Based Rein...

Learning symbolic forward models for robotic motion planning and control

Physiological studies suggest that humans have internal dynamics models for both themselves as well as their environment, which are integral components in motion planning and control. Although robotic systems rely on similar models, a primary constraint for robotic applications is how such models are acquired and developed. Traditionally human engineers derive the dynamics models for robots; th...

Soccer Goalkeeper Task Modeling and Analysis by Petri Nets

In a robotic soccer team, goalkeeper is an important challenging role, which has different characteristics from the other teammates. This paper proposes a new learning-based behavior model for a soccer goalkeeper robot by using Petri nets. The model focuses on modeling and analyzing, both qualitatively and quantitatively, for the goalkeeper role so that we have a model-based knowledge of the ta...

ReAct! An Interactive Tool for Hybrid Planning in Robotics

We present REACT!, an interactive tool for high-level reasoning for cognitive robotic applications. REACT! enables robotic researchers to describe robots’ actions and change in dynamic domains, without having to know about the syntactic and semantic details of the underlying formalism in advance, and solve planning problems using state-of-the-art automated reasoners, without having to learn abo...
