Détection de fautes pour les capteurs embarqués de véhicules intelligents basée sur la redondance analytique utilisant une transformation non linéaire

La sécurité des systèmes de transports intelligents est au centre de tous les débats. Afin de s’assurer un fonctionnement sécuritaire, il est nécessaire de pouvoir vérifier le bon fonctionnement des capteurs permettant d’avoir une parfaite connaissance de l’environnement et de l’état du véhicule. Cette thèse présente une nouvelle solution de détection et d’identification de faute pouvant apparaitre sur les capteurs embarqués d’un véhicule intelligent. Cette méthode est basée sur la redondance analytique des données, consistant à estimer une même mesure à l’aide de capteurs de différentes natures. Cette mesure subit alors une transformation non linéaire permettant à la fois d’accroitre la sensibilité aux fautes et d’être plus robuste aux bruits. Cette étude propose plusieurs solutions de transformation et d’estimation qui seront évaluées en simulation avant de proposer une méthode d’optimisation de la prise de décision en fonction de critères choisis par l’utilisateur. La description de l’architecture, des méthodes employées ainsi que des équations permettant l’établissement de celle-ci seront décrites dans le chapitre 3. L’évaluation en simulation des performances de l’architecture sera effectuée dans le chapitre 4 avant une analyse finale des résultats ainsi qu’une comparaison avec une solution existante dans le dernier chapitre, permettant la validation de notre approche

Cognitive-developmental learning for a humanoid robot : a caregiver's gift

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2004.Includes bibliographical references (p. 319-341).(cont.) which are then applied to developmentally acquire new object representations. The humanoid robot therefore sees the world through the caregiver's eyes. Building an artificial humanoid robot's brain, even at an infant's cognitive level, has been a long quest which still lies only in the realm of our imagination. Our efforts towards such a dimly imaginable task are developed according to two alternate and complementary views: cognitive and developmental.The goal of this work is to build a cognitive system for the humanoid robot, Cog, that exploits human caregivers as catalysts to perceive and learn about actions, objects, scenes, people, and the robot itself. This thesis addresses a broad spectrum of machine learning problems across several categorization levels. Actions by embodied agents are used to automatically generate training data for the learning mechanisms, so that the robot develops categorization autonomously. Taking inspiration from the human brain, a framework of algorithms and methodologies was implemented to emulate different cognitive capabilities on the humanoid robot Cog. This framework is effectively applied to a collection of AI, computer vision, and signal processing problems. Cognitive capabilities of the humanoid robot are developmentally created, starting from infant-like abilities for detecting, segmenting, and recognizing percepts over multiple sensing modalities. Human caregivers provide a helping hand for communicating such information to the robot. This is done by actions that create meaningful events (by changing the world in which the robot is situated) thus inducing the "compliant perception" of objects from these human-robot interactions. Self-exploration of the world extends the robot's knowledge concerning object properties. This thesis argues for enculturating humanoid robots using infant development as a metaphor for building a humanoid robot's cognitive abilities. A human caregiver redesigns a humanoid's brain by teaching the humanoid robot as she would teach a child, using children's learning aids such as books, drawing boards, or other cognitive artifacts. Multi-modal object properties are learned using these tools and inserted into several recognition schemes,by Artur Miguel Do Amaral Arsenio.Ph.D

Advances in Robotics, Automation and Control

The book presents an excellent overview of the recent developments in the different areas of Robotics, Automation and Control. Through its 24 chapters, this book presents topics related to control and robot design; it also introduces new mathematical tools and techniques devoted to improve the system modeling and control. An important point is the use of rational agents and heuristic techniques to cope with the computational complexity required for controlling complex systems. Through this book, we also find navigation and vision algorithms, automatic handwritten comprehension and speech recognition systems that will be included in the next generation of productive systems developed by man

Aerial Vehicles

This book contains 35 chapters written by experts in developing techniques for making aerial vehicles more intelligent, more reliable, more flexible in use, and safer in operation.It will also serve as an inspiration for further improvement of the design and application of aeral vehicles. The advanced techniques and research described here may also be applicable to other high-tech areas such as robotics, avionics, vetronics, and space
