This paper presents a supervisory control system for humanoid robot motion planning. The proposed system is a supervisory structure formed by two hierarchical levels of a discrete event system. The high level system is represented by a Petri net. This Petri net behaves as a supervisor that indicates the sequence of motions that the robot has to make. A robot walking in a closed space forms the ...

The concept of fuzzy reasoning has been extended to Petri nets and has been applied for modeling of discrete event systems [1]. However, the theory was not extended to supervisory control of discrete event systems because there is no valid translation for fuzzy Petri nets into ladder logic diagrams. Discrete event systems are time and event dependent and hence digital in nature. However, discre...

Due to the advantages of Fuzzy reasoning Petri-nets(FPN)on uncertain and incomplete information processing. It is a promising technique to solve the complex power system fault-section estimation problem. Therefore, we propose a novel estimation method based on Adaptive Fuzzy Petri Nets (AFPN), in this algorithm, the AFPN is used to build a dynamic fault diagnosis fuzzy reasoning model, where th...

A supervisory hybrid system may be modeled from two levels: logic level (upper) and continuous level (lower). In this paper, adaptive fuzzy Petri nets and neural networks are combined together for supervisory hybrid system modeling. Adaptive Fuzzy Petri Net is adopted to model the supervisory logic parts, and dynamic neural networks are applied to continuous parts. Two hybrid system examples ar...

Disassembly is rapidly growing in importance as manufacturers face increasing pressure to deal with obsolete products in an environmentally responsible and economically sound manner. This paper builds upon our previous work to address uncertainty management in disassembly. By taking advantage of fuzzy logic and the formalism of Petri nets, this paper proposes a Fuzzy Disassembly Petri Net (F-DP...

Regarding the rapid growth of the size and complexity of simulation applications, designing applicable and affordable verification and validation (V&V) structures is an important problem. On the other hand, nowadays human behavior models are principles to make decision in many simulations and in order to have valid decisions based on a reliable human decision model, first the model must pass th...
