<p>Abstract of the Publication:</p>
<p>We present a database of measured binaural room impulse responses (BRIRs) captured in an apartment-like environment. The BRIRs were measured for four different sound source positions, each combined with four listener positions with a head-orientation varying in the range of +-78° with 2° resolution. Additionally, BRIRs for 20 listener positions along a trajectory connecting two of the four positions were measured, each with a fixed head-orientation. The data is provided in the Spatially Oriented Format for Acoustics (SOFA) and it is freely available under Creative Commons (CC-BY-4.0). It can be used to simulate complex acoustic scenes in order to study the process of auditory scene analysis for humans and machines.</p>
Improving the mobility performance of autonomous unmanned ground vehicles by adding the ability to ‘sense/feel‘ their local environment
No full textThis paper explores how a ‘learning‘ algorithm can be added to UGV’s by giving it the ability to test the terrain through ‘feeling‘ using incorporated sensors, which would in turn increase its situational awareness. Once the conditions are measured the system will log the results and a database can be built up of terrain types and their properties (terrain classification), therefore when it comes to operating autonomously in an unknown, unpredictable environment, the vehicle will be able to cope by identifying the terrain and situation and then decide on the best and most efficient way to travel over it by making adjustments, which would greatly improve the vehicles ability to operate autonomousl
A general framework for multi-robot cooperation and its implementation on a set of three hilare robots
No full textRobot introspection through learned hidden Markov models
No full textIn this paper we describe a machine learning approach for acquiring a model of a robot behaviour from raw sensor data. We are interested in automating the acquisition of behavioural models to provide a robot with an introspective capability. We assume that the behaviour of a robot in achieving a task can be modelled as a finite stochastic state transition system. Beginning with data recorded by a robot in the execution of a task, we use unsupervised learning techniques to estimate a hidden Markov model (HMM) that can be used both for predicting and explaining the behaviour of the robot in subsequent executions of the task. We demonstrate that it is feasible to automate the entire process of learning a high quality HMM from the data recorded by the robot during execution of its task.The learned HMM can be used both for monitoring and controlling the behaviour of the robot. The ultimate purpose of our work is to learn models for the full set of tasks associated with a given problem domain, and to integrate these models with a generative task planner. We want to show that these models can be used successfully in controlling the execution of a plan. However, this paper does not develop the planning and control aspects of our work, focussing instead on the learning methodology and the evaluation of a learned model. The essential property of the models we seek to construct is that the most probable trajectory through a model, given the observations made by the robot, accurately diagnoses, or explains, the behaviour that the robot actually performed when making these observations. In the work reported here we consider a navigation task. We explain the learning process, the experimental setup and the structure of the resulting learned behavioural models. We then evaluate the extent to which explanations proposed by the learned models accord with a human observer's interpretation of the behaviour exhibited by the robot in its execution of the task
