报告题目：Behaviour-based Approach to Robot Intelligence

内容简介：After recent advancement of AI and robotics technologies, autonomous robots are gradually serving us in our home, hospital, office and everywhere. They are intelligent and interactive, inspired from behaviour demonstration of biological systems. However, these robots face several engineering challenges. Firstly, they must deal with uncertainty within the systems, such as sensor noise, actuator inaccuracy, and components failure. Secondly, they must deal with a huge uncertainty in the real world, which is dynamically changing over time. Thirdly, they must communicate with humans in order to provide services. In this talk, I will overview how behaviour-based approach can be effectively applied to the construction of robot intelligence step by step. Then I will present some existing intelligent robots that are based on inspiration from biological systems, including our research work toward the advanced robotic systems, More specifically, behaviour modelling, sensor data fusion and sensor-based control are discussed respectively, and some preliminary experimental results are demonstrated through video.
