چکیده

This paper explores the application of an artificial developmental system (ADS) to the field of evolutionary robotics by investigating the capability of a gene regulatory network (GRN) to specify a general purpose obstacle avoidance controller both in simulation and on a real robot. Experiments are carried out using the e-puck robot platform. It is further proposed to use cross-correlation between inputs and outputs in order to assess the quality of robot controllers more accurately than with observing its behaviour alone.

Adaptive RBF network control for robot manipulators

TThe uncertainty estimation and compensation are challenging problems for the robust control of robot manipulators which are complex systems. This paper presents a novel decentralized model-free robust controller for electrically driven robot manipulators. As a novelty, the proposed controller employs a simple Gaussian Radial-Basis-Function Network as an uncertainty estimator. The proposed netw...

Adaptive fuzzy sliding mode and indirect radial-basis-function neural network controller for trajectory tracking control of a car-like robot

The ever-growing use of various vehicles for transportation, on the one hand, and the statistics ofsoaring road accidents resulting from human error, on the other hand, reminds us of the necessity toconduct more extensive research on the design, manufacturing and control of driver-less intelligentvehicles. For the automatic control of an autonomous vehicle, we need its dynamic...

H∞ Sampled-Data Controller Design for Stochastic Genetic Regulatory Networks

Artificially regulating gene expression is an important step in developing new treatment for system-level disease such as cancer. In this paper, we propose a method to regulate gene expression based on sampled-data measurements of gene products concentrations. Inherent noisy behaviour of Gene regulatory networks are modeled with stochastic nonlinear differential equation. To synthesize feed...
