  2. 6. Engineering Trustworthy Self-Adaptive Autonomous Systems

    Author : Piergiuseppe Mallozzi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Learning; Monitoring and enforcement.; Automotive; System Trustworthiness; Autonomous Systems; Runtime verification; Formal Verification;

    Abstract : Autonomous Systems (AS) are becoming ubiquitous in our society. Some examples are autonomous vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), autonomous trading systems, self-managing Telecom networks and smart factories. READ MORE

  4. 7. Selected Aspects of Navigation and Path Planning in Unmanned Aircraft Systems

    Author : Mariusz Wzorek; Andrzej Szałas; Jacek Malec; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Path planning; motion planning; autonomous Unmanned Aircraft Systems UAS ; Hierarchical Concurrent State Machines HCSM ; UAV;

    Abstract : Unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) are an important future technology with early generations already being used in many areas of application encompassing both military and civilian domains. This thesis proposes a number of integration techniques for combining control-based navigation with more abstract path planning functionality for UASs. READ MORE

  5. 8. Towards 5G-Enabled Intelligent Machines

    Author : Gerasimos Damigos; George Nikolakopoulos; Johan Eker; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; UAV; 5G; QoS; offloading; Robotics and Artificial Intelligence; Robotik och artificiell intelligens;

    Abstract : This thesis introduces a novel framework for enabling intelligent machines and robots with the fifth-generation (5G) cellular network technology. Autonomous robots, such as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGVs), and more, can notably benefit from multi-agent collaboration, human supervision, or operation guidance, as well as from external computational units such as cloud edge servers, in all of which a framework to utilize reliable communication infrastructure is needed.

  6. 9. Robots and Moral Agency

    Author : Linda Johansson; Sven Ove Hansson; Björn Petersson; KTH; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; machine ethics; UAV; laws of war; robot morality; moral agency; Moral; Turning Test; Philosophy subjects; Filosofiämnen;

    Abstract :   Machine ethics is a field of applied ethics that has grown rapidly in the last decade. Increasingly advanced autonomous robots have expanded the focus of machine ethics from issues regarding the ethical development and use of technology by humans to a focus on ethical dimensions of the machines themselves.

  7. 10. Sampling-based Path Planning for an Autonomous Helicopter

    Author : Per Olof Pettersson; Patrick Doherty; Lars Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Path Planning; Motion Planning; Helicopters; Probabilistic Roadmaps; Rapidly-exploring Random Trees; Computer science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : Many of the applications that have been proposed for future small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are at low altitude in areas with many obstacles. A vital component for successful navigation in such environments is a path planner that can find collision free paths for the UAV. READ MORE
