Distributed Processing for Modelling Real-Time Multimodal Perception in a Virtual Robot
نویسندگان
چکیده
Built from a need for modelling cognitive processes, a modular neural network is designed as the “brain” of a virtual robot moving in a prey-predator environment. The robot decides its path from the animals it identifies around. Both a parallel implementation of distributed processes and a temporal coding of spiking neurons allow the robot to develop multimodal perception with attentional mechanisms and to react in real-time to its dynamic environment.

Navigation of a Mobile Robot Using Virtual Potential Field and Artificial Neural Network
Mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. The proposed approach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the track using a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. For training, a human operator navigates the mobile robot in ...

متن کاملBayesian real-time perception algorithms on GPU Real-time implementation of Bayesian models for multimodal perception using CUDA
In this text we present the real-time implementation of a Bayesian framework for robotic multisensory perception on a graphics processing unit (GPU) using the Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA). As an additional objective, we intend to show the benefits of parallel computing for similar problems (i.e. probabilistic grid-based frameworks), and the user-friendly nature of CUDA as a progra...
متن کاملA multimodal user interface for remote object exploration in teleoperation systems
This paper describes the design and implementation of a multimodal user interface for exploration and surface reconstruction of remote environments in teleoperation systems. The sensory information collected by heterogeneous sensors at the teleoperated site is integrated by the system to build a meaningful representation of the remote environment. The user interface includes streaming of video ...
