1. Specification Decomposition and Formal Behavior Generation in Multi-Robot Systems
Sammanfattning : While autonomous robot systems are becoming increasingly common, their usage is still mostly limited to rather simple tasks. This primarily results from the need for manually programming the execution plans of the robots. Instead, as shown in this thesis, their behavior can be automatically generated from a given goal specification. LÄS MER
2. Functional understanding of space : Representing spatial knowledge using concepts grounded in an agent's purpose
Sammanfattning : This thesis examines the role of function in representations of space by robots - that is, dealing directly and explicitly with those aspects of space and objects in space that serve some purpose for the robot. It is suggested that taking function into account helps increase the generality and robustness of solutions in an unpredictable and complex world, and the suggestion is affirmed by several instantiations of functionally conceived spatial models.

3. Formations and Obstacle Avoidance in Mobile Robot Control
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four independent papers concerningthe control of mobile robots in the context of obstacleavoidance and formation keeping. The first paper describes a new theoreticallyv erifiableapproach to obstacle avoidance. LÄS MER
4. Toward human-robot collaboration
Sammanfattning : Recently robots have been launched as tour-guides in museums, and as lawnmowers, in-home vacuum cleaners, and remotely operated machines in so-called distant, dangerous and dirty applications. While the methods to endow robots with a degree of autonomy have been a strong research focus, the methods for human-machine control have not been given as much attention. LÄS MER
5. Robot Manipulation Planning Among Obstacles: Grasping, Placing and Rearranging
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents planning algorithms for three different robot manipulation tasks: fingertip grasping, object placing and rearranging. Herein, we place special attention on addressing these tasks in the presence of obstacles. LÄS MER
