In this paper, a PID controller with adaptive neural network compensator is proposed to control the formations of mobile robot. The control system is composed of a kinematic controller based on the leader-following robot and dynamic controller for considering the dynamics of the mobile robot. The dynamic controller is constituted by a PID controller and the adaptive neural network compensator for improving the performance and compensating the change in dynamic characteristics. Simulation results show the performance of the PID controller and the neural network compensator for the circular trajectory and linear trajectory. And it is verified that by improving the performance of a PID controller via the adaptive neural network compensator, the following robot's tracking performance is improved.

본 논문에서는 마커 인식을 이용한 깊이 영상 기반 군집로봇 대형제어 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 먼저, follower 로봇들의 입력 영상에서 마커 인식 알고리즘을 이용하여 마커를 인식 한 뒤 인식된 마커를 분석하여 등록된 ID를 찾는다. 검출된 마커의 ID가 leader로봇의 ID일 경우 해당 마커의 위치와 기울기 값을 깊이 영상 센서로부터들어오는 깊이 정보를 통해 계산 한 뒤 마커의 위치와 기울기를 이용하여 대형제어를 한다. 마지막으로 제안한 알고리즘을 실제 로봇을 이용한 대형 제어실험을 통해 응용 가능성을 증명한다.

In this study, we have proposed a motion equation to control synchro drive mobile robot, a path plan to compute and track the best path to given destination and a technique utilizing uniform distribution and cluster management based Monte Carlo localization to have track current position of moving robot. In the localization test which was repeated 73 times resulted as following. The average process time of original Monte Carlo localization was 12.8ms. The proposed cluster management Monte Carlo localization resulted 9.3ms. Also the proposed method resulted correctly in the cases where original method failed.

robots determine the location of the other robot using wireless sensors. Use it to decide how to move his. And go to any location, will make shape of column and line, circle. In this paper, we discuss problem in circle formation enclosing target which moves. It is method about enclosed invader in circle formation based on mutual localization of swarm robot without infrastructure. Therefore, use trilateration that do not need to know the value of the coordinates of reference points. So, Specify enclosed point for the number of robots base on between the relative position of the robot in the coordinate system. And particle filter is proposed to improve the accuracy of the location.

In swarm robot systems, each robot must act by itself according to the its states and environments, and if necessary, must cooperate with other robots in order to carry out a given task. Therefore it is essential that each robot has both learning and evolution ability to adapt the dynamic environments. In this paper, reinforcement learning method with SVM based on structural risk minimization and distributed genetic algorithms is proposed for behavior learning and evolution of collective autonomous mobile robots. By distributed genetic algorithm exchanging the chromosome acquired under different environments by communication each robot can improve its behavior ability. Specially, in order to improve the performance of evolution, selective crossover using the characteristic of reinforcement learning that basis of SVM is adopted in this paper.

Therefore it is essential that each robot has both learning and evolution ability to adapt the dynamic environments. In this paper, reinforcement learning method using many SVM based on structural risk minimization and distributed genetic algorithms is proposed for behavior learning and evolution of collective autonomous mobile robots. By distributed genetic algorithm exchanging the chromosome acquired under different environments by communication each robot can improve its behavior ability. Specially, in order to improve the performance of evolution, selective crossover using the characteristic of reinforcement learning that basis of Cascade SVM is adopted in this paper.

It is essential for robot to have the sensing and communication abilities in the swarm robot system. In general, as the number of robot goes on increasing, the limitation of communication capacity and information overflow occur in global communication system. Therefore a local communication is more effective than global one. In this paper, we analyze information propagation mechanism based on local communication. To find an optimal communication radius, we propose several methods with different conditions. Also, to avoid chaotic behavior which occurs when a robot obtains and loses information, we will suggest the stable condition of information propagation.
