Abstract In this paper, we propose a method of cooperative control based on artifical intelligent system in distributed autonomous robotic system. In general, multi-agent behavior algorithm is simple and effective for small number of robots. And multi-robot behavior control is a simple reactive navigation strategy by combining repulsion from obstacles with attraction to a goal. However when the number of robot goes on increasing, this becomes difficult to be realized because multi-robot behavior algorithm provide on multiple constraints and goals in mobile robot navigation problems. As the solution of above problem, we propose an architecture of fuzzy system for each multi-robot speed control and fuzzy-neural network for obstacle avoidance. Here, we propose an architecture of fuzzy system for each multi-robot speed control and fuzzy-neural network for their direction to avoid obstacle. Our focus is on system of cooperative autonomous robots in environment with obstacle. For simulation, we divide experiment into two method. One method is motor schema-based formation control in previous and the other method is proposed by this paper. Simulation results are given in an obstacle environment and in an dynamic environment.

A fuzzy logic for collision avoiding navigation of marine vehicles is proposed in this paper. VFF(Virtual Force Field) method, which is used widely in the field of mobile robots, is modifiel to apply to marine vehicles. The method is named MVFF (Modified Virtual Force Field) mothod. The MVFF consists of the determination of the heading angles far track-keeping mode ($\psi_{ca}$)and collision avoidance mode ($\psi_{ca}$). The operator can choose the pattern of the track-keeping mode in the proposed algorithm. The collision avoidance algorithm can handle static and/or moving obstacles. These functons are implemented using fuzzy logic. Various simulation results verify the proposed alogorithm.

The aim of this paper is to investigate a control framework for mobile robots, operating in shared environment with humans. The Intelligent Space (iSpace) can sense the whole space and evaluate the situations in the space by distributing sensors. The mobile agents serve the inhabitants in the space utilizes the evaluated information by iSpace. The iSpace evaluates the situations in the space and learns the walking behavior of the inhabitants. The human intelligence manifests in the space as a behavior, as a response to the situation in the space. The iSpace learns the behavior and applies to mobile agent motion planning and control. This paper introduces the application of fuzzy-neural network to describe the obstacle avoidance behavior teamed from humans. Simulation results are introduced to demonstrate the efficiency of this method.

A neural optimization network and fuzzy rules are proposed to control the redundant robot manipulators in an environment with obstacle. A neural optimization network is employed to solve the optimization problem for resolved motion control of redundant robot manipulators in an environment with obstacle. The fuzzy rules are proposed to determine the weights of neural optimization networks to avoid the collision between robot manipulators and obstacle. The inputs of fuzzy rules are the resultant distance and change of the distance and sum of the changes by differential motion of each joint. And the output of fuzzy rules is defined as the capability of collision avoidance of joint differential motion. The weightings of neural optimization networks are adjusted according to the capability of collision aboidance of each joint. To show the validities of the proposed method, computer simulation results are illustrated for the redundant robot of the planar type with three degrees of freedom.

로봇의 자율적 이동을 위해서는 현재지점에서부터 목표지점까지를 연결하는 최적 경로의 계획이 필수적이다. 그리고 이동 로봇의 최적 경로는 장애물과의 충돌 없이 목표물까지 최단 이동 거리로 이동 할 수 있도록 하는 경로를 뜻한다. 실제 많은 이동 로봇은 주위 장애물에 대한 정보 없이, 미지의 환경에서도 자율적 이동이 가능해야 한다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 미지 환경에 적합한 새로운 형태의 경로 계획 및 장애물 회피 방법을 제안한다. 이 경로 계획 방법은 매 순간 최적이라 예측되는 지역적 목표를 지정하여 추적하며, 이러한 추적의 연속들의 결과가 로봇의 1차적 이동 경로가 된다. 하지만 이 경로는 장애물과의 충돌이 배제된 경로이다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 Potential Field 방법을 모방한 새로운 방법의 장애물 회피 방법을 제안한다. 그리고 위의 본 논문에서 제안한 경로 계획과 장애물 회피 방법의 성능 및 정확성을 모의실험을 통해 검증한다.

This paper presents a new approach to obstacle avoidance for mobile robot in unknown or partially unknown environments. The method combines two navigation subsystems: low level and high level. The low level subsystem takes part in the control of linear, angular velocities using a multivariable PI controller, and the nonlinear position control. The high level subsystem uses ultrasonic and IR sensors to detect the unknown obstacle include static and dynamic obstacle. This approach provides both obstacle avoidance and target-following behaviors and uses only the local information for decision making for the next action. Also, we propose a new algorithm for the identification and solution of the local minima situation during the robot's traversal using the set of fuzzy rules. The system has been successfully demonstrated by simulations and experiments.

In this paper, the method for navigation and obstacle avoidance of an autonomous mobile robot is proposed. It is based on the fuzzy inference system which enables to deal with imprecise and uncertain information, and on the neural network which enables to learn input and output pattern data obtained from ultrasonic sensors. For autonomous navigation, the wall-following navigation utilizing input and output data by an expert's control action is constructed. An approach by the neural network is developed for the obstacle avoidance because of the redundant input data. For an autonomous navigation, the fuzzy control and the control of the neural network are integrated and its feasibility is demonstrated by means of experiment.

We developed a FLC(Fuzzy Logic Controller) for tracking control of MR(Mobile Robot) with obstacle avoidance. In this research, we made a heuristic approach to tracking control which is simple and efficient in almost every situation using FLC. In addition, smooth turn is accomplished and also obstacles are avoided. Also we used the XX(don't care) linguistic variable for inputs in FLC to make simple rule-table. With various simulations, the validity of our FLC was shown.

In this paper, a hybrid semi-3D path planning algorithm combining Virtual Tangential Vector(VTV) and fuzzy control is proposed. 3D dynamic environmental factors are reflected to the 2D path planning model, VTV. As a result, the robot can control direction from 2D path planning algorithm VTV and speed as well depending on the fuzzy inputs such as the distance between the robot and obstacle, roughness and slope. Performances and feasibilities of the suggested method are demonstrated by using Matlab simulations. Simulation results show that fuzzy rules and obstacle avoidance methods are working properly toward virtual 3D environments. The proposed hybrid semi-3D path planning is expected to be well applicable to a real life environment, considering its simplicity and realistic nature of the dynamic factors included.

이동로봇에 관한 연구가 널리 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 미지의 공간에서 효과적으로 장애물을 회피할 수 있는 SFLC(single-input fuzzy logic controller) 기반의 이동로봇의 주행 제어기 설계와 구현을 제안한다. 장애물의 위치와 거리 인식을 위해 초음파센서를 사용하였으며, 좌, 우측 바퀴의 각속도 출력 제어를 위하여 퍼지논리시스템 기반의 제어기를 설계하였다. 퍼지제어기의 퍼지화 방법은 싱글톤 방법, 추론법은 간략화된 Mamdani의 추론법, 비퍼지화 방법은 간략화된 무게중심법을 사용하였다. 제안한 퍼지제어기의 성능 및 실제 적용 가능성의 평가를 위해 이동로봇의 모델링에 근거한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 그 결과 이동로봇이 장애물을 피하면서 목표지점에 정확히 도착함을 확인하였다. 더욱이 기존의 2-입력 퍼지논리시스템 기반의 제어기로부터 단일 입력을 가지는 단순구조 퍼지논리제어기를 설계할 수 있음도 보였다.
