A Novel Intelligent Technique of Invariant Statistical Embedding and Averaging via Pivotal Quantities for Optimization or Improvement of Statistical …
2020
In the present paper, for intelligent constructing efficient (optimal, uniformly non-dominated, unbiased, improved) statistical decisions under parametric uncertainty, a new technique of invariant embedding of sample statistics in a decision criterion and averaging this criterion over pivots’ probability distributions is proposed. This technique represents a simple and computationally attractive statistical method based on the constructive use of the invariance principle in mathematical statistics. Unlike the Bayesian approach, the technique of invariant statistical embedding and averaging via pivotal quantities (ISE&APQ) is independent of the choice of priors and represents a novelty i…
LMI-based 2D-3D Registration: from Uncalibrated Images to Euclidean Scene
2015
International audience; This paper investigates the problem of registering a scanned scene, represented by 3D Euclidean point coordinates , and two or more uncalibrated cameras. An unknown subset of the scanned points have their image projections detected and matched across images. The proposed approach assumes the cameras only known in some arbitrary projective frame and no calibration or autocalibration is required. The devised solution is based on a Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) framework that allows simultaneously estimating the projective transformation relating the cameras to the scene and establishing 2D-3D correspondences without triangulating image points. The proposed LMI framewo…
Consistent Clustering of Elements in Large Pairwise Comparison Matrices
2018
[EN] In multi-attribute decision making the number of decision elements under consideration may be huge, especially for complex, real-world problems. Typically these elements are clustered and then the clusters organized hierarchically to reduce the number of elements to be simultaneously handled. These decomposition methodologies are intended to bring the problem within the cognitive ability of decision makers. However, such methodologies have disadvantages, and it may happen that such a priori clustering is not clear, and/or the problem has previously been addressed without any grouping action. This is the situation for the case study we address, in which a panel of experts gives opinions…
Adaptive Backstepping Control of Nonlinear Uncertain Systems With Quantized States
2019
This paper investigates the stabilization problem for uncertain nonlinear systems with quantized states. All states in the system are quantized by a static bounded quantizer, including uniform quantizer, hysteresis-uniform quantizer, and logarithmic-uniform quantizer as examples. An adaptive backstepping-based control algorithm, which can handle discontinuity, resulted from the state quantization and a new approach to stability analysis are developed by constructing a new compensation scheme for the effects of the state quantization. Besides showing the global ultimate boundedness of the system, the stabilization error performance is also established and can be improved by appropriately adj…
Making Industrial Robots Smarter with Adaptive Reasoning and Autonomous Thinking for Real-Time Tasks in Dynamic Environments: A Case Study
2018
In order to extend the abilities of current robots in industrial applications towards more autonomous and flexible manufacturing, this work presents an integrated system comprising real-time sensing, path-planning and control of industrial robots to provide them with adaptive reasoning, autonomous thinking and environment interaction under dynamic and challenging conditions. The developed system consists of an intelligent motion planner for a 6 degrees-of-freedom robotic manipulator, which performs pick-and-place tasks according to an optimized path computed in real-time while avoiding a moving obstacle in the workspace. This moving obstacle is tracked by a sensing strategy based on ma-chin…

Rotation estimation and vanishing point extraction by omnidirectional vision in urban environment
2012
International audience; Rotation estimation is a fundamental step for various robotic applications such as automatic control of ground/aerial vehicles, motion estimation and 3D reconstruction. However it is now well established that traditional navigation equipments, such as global positioning systems (GPSs) or inertial measurement units (IMUs), suffer from several disadvantages. Hence, some vision-based works have been proposed recently. Whereas interesting results can be obtained, the existing methods have non-negligible limitations such as a difficult feature matching (e.g. repeated textures, blur or illumination changes) and a high computational cost (e.g. analyze in the frequency domai…
Ant Colony Optimisation-Based Classification Using Two-Dimensional Polygons
2016
The application of Ant Colony Optimization to the field of classification has mostly been limited to hybrid approaches which attempt at boosting the performance of existing classifiers (such as Decision Trees and Support Vector Machines (SVM)) — often through guided feature reductions or parameter optimizations.
Advanced teleoperation and control system for industrial robots based on augmented virtuality and haptic feedback
2021
[EN] There are some industrial tasks that are still mainly performed manually by human workers due to their complexity, which is the case of surface treatment operations (such as sanding, deburring, finishing, grinding, polishing, etc.) used to repair defects. This work develops an advanced teleoperation and control system for industrial robots in order to assist the human operator to perform the mentioned tasks. On the one hand, the controlled robotic system provides strength and accuracy, holding the tool, keeping the right tool orientation and guaranteeing a smooth approach to the workpiece. On the other hand, the advanced teleoperation provides security and comfort to the user when perf…
Haptic and Visual Feedback Assistance for Dual-Arm Robot Teleoperation in Surface Conditioning Tasks
2020
Contact driven tasks, such as surface conditioning operations (wiping, polishing, sanding, etc.), are difficult to program in advance to be performed autonomously by a robotic system, specially when the objects involved are moving. In many applications, human-robot physical interaction can be used for the teaching, specially in learning from demonstrations frameworks, but this solution is not always available. Robot teleoperation is very useful when user and robot cannot share the same workspace due to hazardous environments, inaccessible locations, or because of ergonomic issues. In this sense, this article introduces a novel dual-arm teleoperation architecture with haptic and visual feedb…
