An intellectual genealogy graph: affording a fine prospect of organizational learning

Abstract: The word of "learning", in a wide sense, is used as a part of the social system of education and it has been attracting researchers' interest in our research area of educational systems. The goal of this research is to support creation and inheritance of organizational intellect, that is, "learning" in an organization. In this paper, we will propose an "Intellectual Genealogy Graph," which is a model representing chronological correlation among persons, activities, and intellect in an organization. The intellectual genealogy graph is a basis of intelligent functions which is useful for surveying current learning conditions and clarifying the intellectual role of individuals, organizations, and documents in the organization

Autonomous Underwater Vehicle with Vision-based Navigation System for Underwater Robot Competition

The underwater robot competition in international conference Techno-Ocean 2021 was held to advance underwater technology, in Dec. 2021. The competition consists of five leagues including AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) league, and Kyushu underwater robotics which is the Underwater Student Project team at our university that joint the AUV league using developed AUV. The wet test of the AUV league includes a Gate Pass mission which requires passing through an underwater green gate, Buoy Touch mission requiring contact with the yellow and red buoys, and Special mission requiring contact with the Pinger which has an unknown location. Our AUV navigates by image processing using underwater camera to achieve the mission. This paper explains the AUV system, the mission strategy and detail of image processing.The 2022 International Conference on Artificial Life and Robotics (ICAROB 2022), January 20-23, 2022, on line, Oita, Japa

Hibikino-Musashi@Home 2023 Team Description Paper

This paper describes an overview of the techniques of Hibikino-Musashi@Home, which intends to participate in the domestic standard platform league. The team has developed a dataset generator for the training of a robot vision system and an open-source development environment running on a human support robot simulator. The robot system comprises self-developed libraries including those for motion synthesis and open-source software works on the robot operating system. The team aims to realize a home service robot that assists humans in a home, and continuously attend the competition to evaluate the developed system. The brain-inspired artificial intelligence system is also proposed for service robots which are expected to work in a real home environment
