Path planning for robotic manipulators interacting with obstacles is considered, where an end-effector is to be driven to a goal region in minimum time, collisions are to be avoided, and kinematic and dynamic constraints are to be obeyed. The obstacles can be time-varying in their positions, but the positions should be known or estimated over the prediction horizon for planning the path. This non-convex optimization problem can be approximated by Mixed Integer Programs (MIPs), which usually leads to a large number of binary variables, and hence, to inacceptable computational time for the planning. In this paper, we present a geometric result whose application drastically reduces the number of binary decision variables in the aforementioned MIPs for 3D motion planning problems. This leads to a reduction in computational time, which is demonstrated for different scenarios.

Abstract The Robust Multiple Model Adaptive control (RMMAC) methodology was first introduced in Fekri et al. [2006] for open-loop stable plants with parametric uncertainty and unmodeled dynamics subjected to external disturbances and measurement noise. This paper addresses the stability of RMMAC systems. We show, using concepts and analysis tools that borrow from Supervisory control, that all closed-loop signals in a RMMAC system are bounded. It is further shown that robust performance is recovered in steady state.

This paper proposed an algorithm and 3D graphical simulation approaches for autonomous navigation of UGV(Unmanned Ground Vehicle). The autonomous navigation algorithm is proposed for the environment where the vehicle is navigating on a multi-lane road with other multiple vehicles. The algorithm for autonomous navigation is mainly focused on seeking the optimal trajectory to avoid collisions with adjacent multiple vehicles navigating on multi-lane road environment. The 3D graphical simulation model is constructed to visualize the autonomous navigation control and verify the proposed algorithm and the control system.

This paper describes the control of an autonomous biped robot that combines the use of the torso and the ankle joints movements for its sagittal balance. The innovative characteristic of this controller is the combined use of the ankle and torso joints movements to correct the Zero Moment Point (ZMP). It is used an artificial intelligence technique, the Support Vector Regression (SVR), to control the balance of the robot. The relation between torso and ankle compensations was obtained using the traditional inverted pendulum method. The use of the ankle joint for balance control implies the real time change of the designed initial gait but presents a lower angle control variation compared to the use of the torso joint which is simpler and more precise but slower and with a lower ZMP compensation range. Combining the two control methods it is possible to achieve better results. To obtain a good stable step it is very important to have a good initial legs trajectory design. With that purpose in mind human-based trajectories were used, leading to smaller control corrections of ankle and torso joints. It were tested different combinations of torso and ankle joints corrections for the balance control on flat horizontal and inclined surfaces and the results presented. In order to evaluate and compare the performance of the balance control methods of a biped robot two performance indexes are proposed.

A multi-input and multi-output optimal controller for stochastic systems with time-varying dynamics is developed. The system to be controlled is described using a multi-input and multi-output time-varying autoregressive moving average model with multiple delays. The controller minimises a generalised minimum variance cost functional that is the sum of quadratic output tracking error variances and current control variables.
