In this work, an Integral Reinforcement Learning (RL) framework is employed to provide provably safe, convergent and almost globally optimal policies in a novel Off-Policy Iterative method for simply-connected workspaces. This restriction stems from the impossibility of strictly global navigation in multiply connected manifolds, and is necessary for formulating continuous solutions. The current method generalizes and improves upon previous results, where parametrized controllers hindered the method in scope and results. Through enhancing the traditional reactive paradigm with RL, the proposed scheme is demonstrated to outperform both previous reactive methods as well as an RRT* method in path length, cost function values and execution times, indicating almost global optimality.

In the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (ai) and robotics, autonomous object manipulation has emerged as a pivotal research domain, finding applications in sectors as diverse as manufacturing and healthcare. While significant strides have been made in object identification, trajectory planning, and manipulation tasks, these advancements often fall short in real-world, dynamic settings, revealing a critical research gap in algorithmic adaptability and computational efficiency. This paper addresses the gap by applying YOLOv4, a state-of-the-art object detection ai algorithm, within the context of the RoboCup Autonomous Robot Manipulation (ARM) Challenge—a competitive platform designed to simulate real-world complexities in autonomous systems. The research objectives are twofold: firstly, the performance of YOLOv4 in object detection and classification under dynamically changing conditions is rigorously evaluated, employing varied training strategies in both simulated and real-world scenarios. Secondly, the robustness and adaptability of the algorithm in object manipulation tasks are scrutinized and facilitated by the real-world dynamics inherent to the competition. Empirical results demonstrate the algorithm’s high accuracy, efficiency, and robustness in dynamic environments, substantiating its broader applicability in the development of autonomous systems.

Neuronal morphology is essential for studying brain functioning and understanding neurodegenerative disorders. As acquiring real-world morphology data is expensive, computational approaches for morphology generation have been studied. Traditional methods heavily rely on expert-set rules and parameter tuning, making it difficult to generalize across different types of morphologies. Recently, MorphVAE was introduced as the sole learning-based method, but its generated morphologies lack plausibility, i.e., they do not appear realistic enough and most of the generated samples are topologically invalid. To fill this gap, this paper proposes MorphGrower, which mimicks the neuron natural growth mechanism for generation. Specifically, MorphGrower generates morphologies layer by layer, with each subsequent layer conditioned on the previously generated structure. During each layer generation, MorphGrower utilizes a pair of sibling branches as the basic generation block and generates branch pairs synchronously. This approach ensures topological validity and allows for fine-grained generation, thereby enhancing the realism of the final generated morphologies. Results on four real-world datasets demonstrate that MorphGrower outperforms MorphVAE by a notable margin. Importantly, the electrophysiological response simulation demonstrates the plausibility of our generated samples from a neuroscience perspective.

Quadrotors find their roles in various sectors ranging from remote surveillance to autonomous delivery due to their capabilities of hovering, Vertical Take Off and Landing (VTOL) and rapid manoeuvring. They are a viable asset to humans in safety-critical and hazardous operations such as remote inspection and manipulation of tunnels and windmills. These applications induce external disturbances and noises along with the modelling uncertainties in the dynamics. Applications such as aerial manipulation require control from a ground station autonomously or semi-autonomously, which leads to unpredictable delays and lags. In this context, the quadrotor has to perform its goals of following the desired trajectory with minimal deviation and holding its position without any deviation while operating in the environment. So, this article analyses the existing control techniques for the quadrotor tracking problem, which also tackle parametric uncertainties, unknown time-varying delays and ensure safety.
