Experiments in Subsymbolic Action Planning with Mobile Robots
[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this paper, we present experiments with two autonomous mobile robots, which use autonomously learned subsymbolic representations of perceptual and behavioural space to determine goal-achieving sequences ...
The ability to determine a sequence of actions in order to reach a particular goal is of utmost importance to mobile robots. ...
Action Selection versus Action Planning The bulk of research on subsymbolic planning to date has focused on simulated agents, rather than situated, embodied mobile robots. ...

Bridging the Symbolic/Subsymbolic Gap
[chapter]
2014
Atlantis Thinking Machines
We discuss the potential use of this integrated system to control mobile robots, as exemplified via a thought-experiment involving eye-hand coordination. ...
This is a "tight" integration, in which the symbolic and subsymbolic aspects exert detailed real-time influence on each others' operations. ...
Current robots, in some cases, can carry out specialized actions with great accuracy, but they lack this sort of integration, and thus generally have difficulty effectively carrying out actions in unforeseen ...

Specializing Underdetermined Action Descriptions Through Plan Projection
[article]
2018
arXiv
pre-print
Plan execution on real robots in realistic environments is underdetermined and often leads to failures. The choice of action parameterization is crucial for task success. ...
By thinking ahead of time with the fast plan projection mechanism proposed in this paper, a general plan can be specialized towards the environment and task at hand by choosing action parameterizations ...
In the domain of mobile manipulation, the choice of action parameterization is crucial for task success. There is a large number of parameters and most of them are subsymbolic. ...
