Introduction to AI Robotics, second edition
A comprehensive survey of artificial intelligence algorithms and programming organization for robot systems, combining theoretical rigor and practical applications. This textbook offers a comprehensive survey of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms and programming organization for robot systems. Readers who master the topics covered will be able to design and evaluate an artificially intelligent robot for applications involving sensing, acting, planning, and learning. A background in AI is not required; the book introduces key AI topics from all AI subdisciplines throughout the book and explains how they contribute to autonomous capabilities. This second edition is a major expansion and reorganization of the first edition, reflecting the dramatic advances made in AI over the past fifteen years. An introductory overview provides a framework for thinking about AI for robotics, distinguishing between the fundamentally different design paradigms of automation and autonomy. The book then discusses the reactive functionality of sensing and acting in AI robotics; introduces the deliberative functions most often associated with intelligence and the capability of autonomous initiative; surveys multi-robot systems and (in a new chapter) human-robot interaction; and offers a “metaview” of how to design and evaluate autonomous systems and the ethical considerations in doing so. New material covers locomotion, simultaneous localization and mapping, human-robot interaction, machine learning, and ethics. Each chapter includes exercises, and many chapters provide case studies. Endnotes point to additional reading, highlight advanced topics, and offer robot trivia.
AI Robotics
Artificial intelligence (AI) robots can learn from their experiences, make decisions in real time, understand natural language and human gestures, and utilize computer vision to perceive and comprehend their environments. Beginning with the rudimentary concepts of AI, AI Robotics: Ethics, Algorithms, and Technology of Artificial Intelligence-Powered Robots explores the intersection of robotics and physics and emphasizes the need for strict adherence to ethical principles in relation to overall progress and the development of humankind. Chapters on robots capable of talking, listening, and visual perception similar to human beings are followed by discussions of those that display emotional intelligence. This book also discusses task and motion planning, a set of methods that help robot hardware achieve high-level goals by breaking down tasks into smaller, more manageable steps. Lastly, the text describes autonomous robots that can make independent decisions and execute tasks on their own, utilizing sensors and AI-enabled software programmed with predefined guidelines and data. Examples of autonomous robots are presented in a chapter on robot swarms that operate in a decentralized, self-organizing manner through local communication to manage disaster relief, search-and-rescue operations, warehouse logistics, agricultural practices, and environmental exploration. Offering an up-to-date, expansive, and comprehensive treatment of the vast interdisciplinary field of AI robotics, this book will be an invaluable resource for postgraduate and doctorate students as well as academic researchers and professional engineers working on AI-enabled robotics. Key Features Explores the research frontiers and advancements leveraged by integrating AIe with robotics Highlights the unique challenges faced in robot vision and speech recognition vis-à-vis computer vision and standard speech processing Provides a state-of-the-art overview of emotional recognition, task and motion planning, and coordinated functioning of robots in multi-robot systems
