Examples of Artificial Perceptions in Optical Character Recognition and Iris Recognition
This paper assumes the hypothesis that human learning is perception based,
and consequently, the learning process and perceptions should not be
represented and investigated independently or modeled in different simulation
spaces. In order to keep the analogy between the artificial and human learning,
the former is assumed here as being based on the artificial perception. Hence,
instead of choosing to apply or develop a Computational Theory of (human)
Perceptions, we choose to mirror the human perceptions in a numeric
(computational) space as artificial perceptions and to analyze the
interdependence between artificial learning and artificial perception in the
same numeric space, using one of the simplest tools of Artificial Intelligence
and Soft Computing, namely the perceptrons. As practical applications, we
choose to work around two examples: Optical Character Recognition and Iris
Recognition. In both cases a simple Turing test shows that artificial
perceptions of the difference between two characters and between two irides are
fuzzy, whereas the corresponding human perceptions are, in fact, crisp.Comment: 5th Int. Conf. on Soft Computing and Applications (Szeged, HU), 22-24

Neural Networks in Mobile Robot Motion
This paper deals with a path planning and intelligent control of an
autonomous robot which should move safely in partially structured environment.
This environment may involve any number of obstacles of arbitrary shape and
size; some of them are allowed to move. We describe our approach to solving the
motion-planning problem in mobile robot control using neural networks-based
technique. Our method of the construction of a collision-free path for moving
robot among obstacles is based on two neural networks. The first neural network
is used to determine the "free" space using ultrasound range finder data. The
second neural network "finds" a safe direction for the next robot section of
the path in the workspace while avoiding the nearest obstacles. Simulation
examples of generated path with proposed techniques will be presented.Comment: 9 Page
