Wifi Localization And Navigation For Autonomous Indoor Mobile Robots, Joydeep Biswas, Manuela M. Veloso
Wifi Localization And Navigation For Autonomous Indoor Mobile Robots, Joydeep Biswas, Manuela M. Veloso
Computer Science Department Faculty Publication Series
Building upon previous work that demonstrates the effectiveness of WiFi localization information per se, in this paper we contribute a mobile robot that autonomously navigates in indoor environments using WiFi sensory data. We model the world as a WiFi signature map with geometric constraints and introduce a continuous perceptual model of the environment generated from the discrete graph-based WiFi signal strength sampling. We contribute our WiFi localization algorithm which continuously uses the perceptual model to update the robot location in conjunction with its odometry data. We then briefly introduce a navigation approach that robustly uses the WiFi location estimates. We …
The Development Of Hierarchical Knowledge In Robot Systems, Stephen W. Hart
The Development Of Hierarchical Knowledge In Robot Systems, Stephen W. Hart
Open Access Dissertations
This dissertation investigates two complementary ideas in the literature on machine learning and robotics--those of embodiment and intrinsic motivation--to address a unified framework for skill learning and knowledge acquisition. "Embodied" systems make use of structure derived directly from sensory and motor configurations for learning behavior. Intrinsically motivated systems learn by searching for native, hedonic value through interaction with the world. Psychological theories of intrinsic motivation suggest that there exist internal drives favoring open-ended cognitive development and exploration. I argue that intrinsically motivated, embodied systems can learn generalizable skills, acquire control knowledge, and form an epistemological understanding of the world …
Agent Interactions In Decentralized Environments, Martin William Allen
Agent Interactions In Decentralized Environments, Martin William Allen
Doctoral Dissertations 1896 - February 2014
The decentralized Markov decision process (Dec-POMDP) is a powerful formal model for studying multiagent problems where cooperative, coordinated action is optimal, but each agent acts based on local data alone. Unfortunately, it is known that Dec-POMDPs are fundamentally intractable: they are NEXP-complete in the worst case, and have been empirically observed to be beyond feasible optimal solution.
To get around these obstacles, researchers have focused on special classes of the general Dec-POMDP problem, restricting the degree to which agent actions can interact with one another. In some cases, it has been proven that these sorts of structured forms of interaction …
