Adaptive Control of Robot Manipulators
World Scientific Publishing Company 2010; US$ 129.00This book introduces an unified function approximation approach to the control of uncertain robot manipulators containing general uncertainties. It works for free space tracking control as well as compliant motion control. It is applicable to the rigid robot and the flexible joint robot. Even with actuator dynamics, the unified approach is still feasible.... more...
Intelligent Autonomous Robotics
Morgan & Claypool Publishers 2007; US$ 40.00Robotics technology has recently advanced to the point of being widely accessible for relatively low-budget research, as well as for graduate, undergraduate, and even secondary and primary school education. This lecture provides an example of how to productively use a cutting-edge advanced robotics platform for education and research by providing a... more...
A Concise Introduction to Multiagent Systems and Distributed Artificial Intelligence
Morgan & Claypool Publishers 2007; US$ 40.00The text is centered on the concept of an agent as decision maker. Chapter 1 is a short introduction to the field of multiagent systems. Chapter 2 covers the basic theory of singleagent decision making under uncertainty. Chapter 3 is a brief introduction to game theory, explaining classical concepts like Nash equilibrium. Chapter 4 deals with the fundamental... more...
Algorithms for Reinforcement Learning
Morgan & Claypool Publishers 2010; US$ 35.00Reinforcement learning is a learning paradigm concerned with learning to control a system so as to maximize a numerical performance measure that expresses a long-term objective. What distinguishes reinforcement learning from supervised learning is that only partial feedback is given to the learner about the learner's predictions. Further, the predictions... more...
Hybrid Control and Motion Planning of Dynamical Legged Locomotion
Wiley 2012; US$ 99.95A much-needed, state-of-the-art guide on building complex legged robots Robot control of dynamical legged locomotion has seen tremendous advances in recent decades, with hundreds of walking mechanisms being built in laboratories worldwide, helping people with disabilities and serving as replacements for humans operating in hazardous environments.... more...
Distributed Computing by Oblivious Mobile Robots
Morgan & Claypool Publishers 2012; US$ 50.00The study of what can be computed by a team of autonomous mobile robots, originally started in robotics and AI, has become increasingly popular in theoretical computer science (especially in distributed computing), where it is now an integral part of the investigations on computability by mobile entities. The robots are identical computational entities... more...
