Dependability of Mobile Robots in Direct Interaction with Humans
Operating interactive mobile robots in unmodified natural environments such as in museums or at exposition areas impose requirements on the robots,... -
Next Generation Teach Pendants for Industrial Robots
Teach pendants for industrial robots have sometimes been quite rudimentary in the past, and often enough users had to learn to cope with whatever is... -
4 Co-existence: Physical Interaction and Coordinated Motion
Co-existence an co-operation between a human and a machine which can move and act in an autonomous mode involves a form of interaction which goes... -
The Robotic Bar – An Integrated Demonstration of a Robotic Assistant
Coming out of the labs, the first robots are currently appearing on the consumer market. Initially they target rather simple application scenarios... -
Learning Behavioral Sequences by Means of Nonlinear Dynamics
We present a software architecture for the behavioral organization of a mobile robot which is entirely based on nonlinear dynamical systems. The... -
The Control Architecture of Care-O-bot II
Robot assistants act in dynamic environments and have to cope with changing situations: they must be able to sense the world and to control their... -
Robotic Home Assistant Care-O-bot II
Technical aids allow elderly and handicapped people to live independently in their private homes as long as they wish. As a contribution to these... -
Statistical Recognition of Motion Patterns
One key prerequisite for a machine to interact intelligently with people is its ability to recognize humans as interaction partners and to understand... -
Sequential Pattern Mining*
Sequential pattern discovery has emerged as an important research topic in knowledge discovery and data mining with broad applications. Previous... -
Discovering the Factors Affecting the Location Selection of FDI in China*
Since the late 1970s, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has played an important role in the economic development of China. However, the growth of FDI... -
Granular Nested Causal Complexes
Causal reasoning occupies a central position in human reasoning. In many ways, causality is granular. This is true for: perception, commonsense... -
The Evolution of the Concept of Fuzzy Measure
Most information discovery processes need to understand the reasons of the success of the inference methods or the usability of the new information,... -
Uncertain Knowledge Association Through Information Gain
The problem of entity association is at the core of information mining techniques. In this work we propose an approach that links the similarity of... -
Integrated Clustering Modeling with Backpropagation Neural Network for Effcient Customer Relationship Management
The rapid progress in digital data acquisition and storage technology has lead to the fast growing tremendous and amount of data stored in databases,... -
Applications of Fuzzy Logic in Mobile Robots Control
Fuzzy logic is a mathematical tool that can manipulate human reasoning, concepts and linguistic terms. It suits ill-defined systems since it can... -
Using an Adapted Classification Based on Associations Algorithm in an Activity-Based Transportation System
A lot of research has been carried out in the past by using association rules to build more accurate classifiers. The idea behind these integrated... -
A Fuzzy Approach on Guiding Model for Interception Flight
This chapter presents an original moving control model based on the fuzzy logic, applied to some navigation special issues. The steps taken on... -
A Qualitative Approach for Symbolic Data Manipulation Under Uncertainty
In decision making problems, the experts knowledge has different natures: numerical, interval-valued, symbolic, linguistic, . . . In other terms, the... -
Simulated Annealing Approach for the Multi-objective Facility Layout Problem
In general, facility layout problems are occurred if there are changes in requirements of space, people and equipments. When the changes of... -
Penalty-Reward Analysis with Uninorms: A Study of Customer (Dis)Satisfaction
In customer (dis)satisfaction research, analytic methods are needed to capture the complex relationship between overall (dis)satisfaction with a...
