  1. 1. Learning stationary tasks using behavior trees and genetic algorithms

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för systemteknik

    Author : Martin Edin; [2020]
    Keywords : Behavior Tree; Genetic Algorithm; Evolutionary Algorithm; Automated Planning; ABB Robotics; ROS2; Algoryx Dynamics;

    Abstract : The demand for collaborative, easy to use robots has increased during the last decades in hope of incorporating the use of robotics in smaller production scales, with easier and faster programming. Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine learning (ML) are showing promising potential in robotics and this project has attempted to automatically solve a specific assembly task with Behavior trees (BTs).

  3. 2. Behavior Trees Evolution by Means of Genetic Programming

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för informationsteknologi

    Author : Milosz Mazur; [2015]
    Keywords : Genetic Programming; Behavior Trees; Cooperation;

    Abstract : Behavior Trees are a method for AI programming that consists of a tree of hierarchical nodes controlling the flow of agent's decision making. They have proven, while being a pretty straightforward means to implement an AI, to be incredibly powerful way of obtaining autonomous agents, both due to a fact that the development can be iterable (one can start with implementing simple behavior and gradually improve the tree by adding and modifying nodes and branches) and allowing for, so to say, ``fallback tactics'', should the currently executed action fail.

  4. 3. Generic Cognitive Architecture for Real-Time, Embedded Cognitive Systems

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Sektionen för datavetenskap och kommunikation

    Author : Jekaterina Novikova; [2011]
    Keywords : integrated cognitive architecture; mobile robot; genetic programming;

    Abstract : The problem of integrated cognition , analyzed in the thesis, belongs to a multi-disciplinary area of cognitive engineering. The multi-disciplinary focusing on cognitive models and real-time embedded systems, such as mobile robots, helps to reveal a broader and deeper understanding of robotics as part of everyday life and society.

  5. 4. Developing Box-Pushing Behaviours Using Evolutionary Robotics

    University essay from Datateknik

    Author : Boris Van Lierde; [2011]
    Keywords : Evolutionary robotics; bootstrapping problem; box pushing; continuous time recurrent neural network; CTRNN; genetic algorithm.;

    Abstract : The context of this report and the IRIDIA laboratory are described in the preface. Evolutionary Robotics and the box-pushing task are presented in the introduction.The building of a test system supporting Evolutionary Robotics experiments is then detailed. This system is made of a robot simulator and a Genetic Algorithm. READ MORE

  6. 5. Detached tool use in evolutionary robotics : Evolving tool use skills

    University essay from Institutionen för kommunikation och information

    Author : Boris Schäfer; [2006]
    Keywords : adaptive robotics; evolutionary robotics; tool use behavior; autonomous agents; simulated experiments; artificial evolution; tool use; skill inheritance; intelligence;

    Abstract : This master thesis investigates the principal capability of artificial evolution to produce tool use behavior in adaptive agents, excluding the application of life-time learning or adaptation mechanisms. Tool use is one aspect of complex behavior that is expected from autonomous agents acting in real-world environments. READ MORE
