Implementation of data mining applications is a challenging and complicated task, and the applications are often built from scratch. In this paper, a component-based application framework, called smart archive (SA) designed for implementing data mining applications, is presented. SA provides functionality common to most data mining applications and components for utilizing history information. Using SA, it is possible to build high-quality applications with shorter development times by configuring the framework to process application-specific data. The architecture, the components, the implementation and the design principles of the framework are presented. The advantages of a framework-based implementation are demonstrated by presenting a case study which compares the framework approach to implementing a real-world application with the option of building an equivalent application from scratch. In conclusion, the paper presents a lucid framework for creating data mining applications and illustrates the importance and advantages of using the presented approach.

This paper presents the gait pattern generation work performed for the six-legged robot EA308 developed in our laboratory. The aim is to achieve a dynamically developing gait pattern generation structure using reinforcement learning. For the six legged robot a simplified simulative model is constructed. The algorithm constructs a radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) to command proper leg configurations to the simulative robot. The weights of the RBFNN are learned using reinforcement learning. The developed structure succeeded in learning gait patterns compatible with different speeds of the robot.

This paper describes an improved approach to design a Takagi-Sugeno zero-order type fast parameterized digital fuzzy logic controller (DFLC) processing only the active rules (rules that give a non-null contribution for a given input data set), at high frequency of operation, without significant increase in hardware complexity. To achieve this goal, an improved method of designing the fuzzy controller model is proposed that significantly reduces the time required to process the active rules and effectively increases the input data processing rate. The DFLC discussed in this paper achieves an internal core processing speed of at least 200 MHz, featuring two 8-bit inputs and one 12-bit output, with up to seven trapezoidal shape membership functions per input and a rule base of up to 49 rules. The proposed architecture was implemented in a field programmable gate array (FPGA) chip with the use of a very high-speed integrated-circuits hardware-description-language (VHDL) and advanced synthesis and place and route tools

For meaningful interaction between a robot and a human, an autonomous robot must recognize whether the experienced situation is created by people or by the environment. Using only proprioceptive data from a mobile robotic platform, we discover that it is possible to distinguish sensory data patterns involving interaction. These patterns are obtained whilst navigating varying environments, both human populated and unpopulated. The paper reports the initial set of trials using Roball, a spherical mobile robot. Also described is the experimental methodology currently followed to validate the hypothesis that child interaction can be perceived directly from navigation sensors onboard a robotic platform.

Sensing capabilities of a multi-DSP sonar ring are demonstrated with wall following and obstacle avoidance behaviour. The autonomous mobile robot called "Sombrero" moves perpendicular to the nearest object on the left while controlling the distance to that object and generates high quality sonar maps. The wall following and obstacle avoidance behaviour is very simple due to the accurate and timely range and bearing (incidence angle) information provided by the advanced sonar ring. The advanced sonar ring consists of 48 ultrasonic transducers, 24 acting as transceivers and 24 acting as receivers, seven custom designed DSP echo processor boards and six analogue boards. The sonar ring is able to cover 360 degrees around robot with simultaneously firing of all 24 transmitters. Transmission and echo analysis are performed at repetition rates of about 10 Hz, for ranges up to six metres. Accurate distance and bearing measurements of objects are performed by the DSP system using matched filtering techniques. The robot is able to follow walls of various shapes such as a square, circle, concave corner and convex corner. Sombrero controls its motion based on the range and bearing data captured from the advanced sonar ring every 100 msec while moving with a constant speed. Experimental results illustrate the effectiveness of the sonar ring and the quality of the generated local maps.
