This paper describes our preliminary development of a virtual robot teleoperation platform based on hand gesture recognition using visual information. Hand gestures in images captured by a camera are recognised to control a virtual iCub. We employ two methods to realise the classification: Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference systems (ANFIS) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). We realise the teleoperation of a virtual robot using iCubSimulator. The technique in the paper will enable us to teleoperate a physical robot in the future work. In addition, a video server is set up to monitor the real robot. By using the parallel system we are able to improve the robot's performance. Based on the techniques presented in this paper, the virtual iCub can perform the specified actions remotely in a natural manner.

Considering two disadvantages in traditional gravity matching aided inertial navigation system, low matching accuracy and error accumulation, we propose an improved gravity matching algorithm and aided method for inertial navigation system. Instead of using the sequence sampling, the single point sampling is applied to improve the structure of proposed algorithm, enhancing the matching speed and efficiency. In the aided navigation system method, we use combination of Sage-Husa adaptive filter and strong-tracked Kalman filter to make further optimal estimation of the matching trajectory. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the real-time ICCP algorithm and the combined filter algorithm. Comparing to the traditional methods, proposed method provides higher matching and navigation accuracy.

Optimal charging control of large-population autonomous plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) in power grid can be formulated as a class of constrained non-linear timevariant optimization problems. To overcome the computational complexity of this class of optimization problems, the author and his collaborators proposed a game-based decentralized control method such that individual agents update their best charging strategies simultaneously with respect to a common electricity price signal which is determined by the total demand in the grid. Due to the heterogeneity of individual PEVs, the game systems converge to a nearly valley-fill NE strategy with nontrivial deviation costs due to the heterogeneity property of individual PEV charging characteristics. In this paper the author proposed a novel algorithm to implement the optimal decentralized valley fill strategies for the charging problems of the PEV population which is composed of disjoint homogeneous subpopulations. The author introduces a cost which penalizes against the deviation of strategy of individual agent in a subpopulation from the average value of the subpopulation. It can be shown that in case that the update algorithm converges, the system reaches the optimal valley-fill equilibrium strategy where the introduced agent deviation cost vanishes. Simulation examples are used to illustrate the results developed in this paper.

—In this paper, a synchronization of discrete multi-agent systems with random network delays was studied. By employing the graph and matrix theory, a model based predictive control algorithm is proposed to achieve leader-following consensus in a network of agents. Furthermore, a consensus protocol is developed based on this strategy. Numerical simulation examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Terrain perception in complex environment is important for Autonomous Land Vehicle to drive automatically. In order to access the terrain information, in this paper, we present a terrain perception method based on Hidden Markov Model (HMM) which combines LIDAR with machine vision. On the basis of spatial fan-shaped model, terrain feature extraction is performed to acquire the observation model. Hidden markov models describe the vertical structure of the driving space and Viterbi algorithm is used for terrain classification. Then the navigation decision is given based on the perception of the complex environment. Experiment results show that the method can give an accurate environment description for ALV.

In this paper, we propose a time division multiple access(TDMA) based protocol that works on slightly modified IEEE802.15.4 network in star topology for secured and unsecured low latency deterministic networks(LLDN) for industrial controlsystems. This protocol ensures total superframe time as low as ten milliseconds as compared to minimum possible superframe time of 15.36 milliseconds. In these networks, Each end device transmits its data frame in their allotted timeslot. The timeslot and inter timeslot spacing is optimized for channel bandwidth utilization and reliable data frame exchange. While this TDMA based protocol eliminates the risk of frame collisions to great extent, MAC sub-layer tweaking improves the non-determinism of the network and increases its bandwidth efficiency. We also investigate the security impact on the performance of LLDN. A mathematical model is developed that takes empirical values as input and predicts the worst case arrival times of network devices at coordinator. Experiments were conducted to evaluate the suggested protocol and mathematical model.

We designed a distributed charging coordination method for electric vehicles over a multi-time interval with the so-called progressive second price (PSP) auction mechanism which was proposed by Lasar and Semret in order to efficiently allocate the divisible resources among multi agents. The incentive compatibility holds for the auction games under the PSP mechanism. However due to the cross-elastic correlation among the different charging instants, the marginal valuation of an individual agent at each instant is determined by both the demand at this instant and the total demand at the whole interval. This phenomena makes the underlying auction games distinct from those studied in the literature. As a main contribution of the paper, we showed that the efficient bid profile over the multi-time interval is a Nash equilibrium of the auction systems.
