چکیده

Learning a set of rules to perform reliable obstacle avoidance has been proven to be a difficult task. In this paper, a neural network learned from human driving data is introduced to model obstacle avoidance through dense areas of obstacles. The learned neural network is then tested on different scenarios and compared using cross-validation to determine the optimal network structure (number of nodes and layers). The results are also compared with another obstacle avoidance approach, which acts as a basis for comparison.

Designing Path for Robot Arm Extensions Series with the Aim of Avoiding Obstruction with Recurring Neural Network

In this paper, recurrent neural network is used for path planning in the joint space of the robot with obstacle in the workspace of the robot. To design the neural network, first a performance index has been defined as sum of square of error tracking of final executor. Then, obstacle avoidance scheme is presented based on its space coordinate and its minimum distance between the obstacle and ea...

Neural Network Based Obstacle Avoidance Using Simulated Sensor Data

This study characterized the design and implementation of a low-cost autonomous robot capable of performing obstacle avoidance using neural networks trained with simulated sensor data. The only sensor used for detecting the environment was an infrared distance sensor attached to a hobby servo, allowing for 180° of sensor visibility. In order to train the neural networks, simulated sensor data w...

Evolving Obstacle Avoidance Behavior in a Robot Arm

Existing approaches for learning to control a robot arm rely on supervised methods where correct behavior is explicitly given. It is di cult to learn to avoid obstacles using such methods, however, because examples of obstacle avoidance behavior are hard to generate. This paper presents an alternative approach that evolves neural network controllers through genetic algorithms. No input/output e...
