This study is devoted to development of a neural network based control system of robots group. The control system performs estimation of an environment state, searching the optimal path planning method, path planning, and changing the trajectories on via the robots interaction. The deep learning neural networks implements the optimal path planning method, and path planning of the robots. The first neural network classifies the environment into two types. For the first type a method of the shortest path planning is used. For the second type a method of the most safety path planning is used. Estimation of the path planning algorithm is based on the multi-objective criteria. The criterion includes the time of movement to the target point, path length, and minimal distance from the robot to obstacles. A new hybrid learning algorithm of the neural network is proposed. The algorithm includes elements of both a supervised learning as well as an unsupervised learning. The second neural network plans the shortest path. The third neural network plans the most safety path. To train the second and third networks a supervised algorithm is developed. The second and third networks do not plan a whole path of the robot. The outputs of these neural networks are the direction of the robot’s movement in the step k. Thus the recalculation of the whole path of the robot is not performed every step in a dynamical environment. Likewise in this paper algorithm of the robots formation for unmapped obstructed environment is developed. The results of simulation and experiments are presented.

In this paper, the shortest path problem of manipulator path planning is transformed into a linear programming problem, and solved by zeroing neural network (ZNN). Firstly, the method of constructing the zeroing neural dynamics is given, and the ZNN model is constructed for shortest path problem of manipulator. Then, the Lyapunov method is utilized to prove the stability of the ZNN model. Finally, the ZNN model is applied to the path planning of manipulator to generate an optimal planning path. The simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively realize the optimal path planning of the manipulator.

For stealth unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), path security and search efficiency of penetration paths are the two most important factors in performing missions. This article investigates an optimal penetration path planning method that simultaneously considers the principles of kinematics, the dynamic radar cross-section of stealth UAVs, and the network radar system. By introducing the radar threat estimation function and a 3D bidirectional sector multilayer variable step search strategy into the conventional A-Star algorithm, a modified A-Star algorithm was proposed which aims to satisfy waypoint accuracy and the algorithm searching efficiency. Next, using the proposed penetration path planning method, new waypoints were selected simultaneously which satisfy the attitude angle constraints and rank-K fusion criterion of the radar system. Furthermore, for comparative analysis of different algorithms, the conventional A-Star algorithm, bidirectional multilayer A-Star algorithm, and modified A-Star algorithm were utilized to settle the penetration path problem that UAVs experience under various threat scenarios. Finally, the simulation results indicate that the paths obtained by employing the modified algorithm have optimal path costs and higher safety in a 3D complex network radar environment, which show the effectiveness of the proposed path planning scheme.

Strategies for finding the shortest path for a mobile robot with two actuated spoke wheels based on variable kinematic configurations are presented in this paper. The optimal path planning strategy proposed here integrate the traditional constrained path planning tools and the unique kinematic configuration spaces of the mobile robot IMPASS (Intelligent Mobility Platform with Actuated Spoke System). IMPASS utilizes a unique mobility concept of stretching in or out individually actuated spokes in order to perform variable curvature radius steering using changing kinematic configuration during its movement. Due to this unique motion strategy, various kinematic topologies produce specific motion characteristics in the way of curvature radius-variable steering. Instead of traditional differential drive or Ackerman steering locomotion, combinational path geometry methods, Dubins’ curve and Reeds and Shepp’s curve are applied to classify optimal paths into known permutations of sequences consisting of various kinematic configurations. Numerical simulation is given to verify the analytical solutions provided by using Lagrange Multiplier.

Abstract To eliminate the effect of ocean currents for optimal path planning for unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) in the underwater environment, an intelligent algorithm is designed and proposed in this paper. The algorithm consists of two parts: an artificial potential field-based algorithm that derives the shortest path and avoids collision accidents; and an adjusting function that eliminates the effect of ocean currents. The planning results of the intelligent algorithm are presented in detail, and compared with the conventional algorithm that does not consider the effect of currents. The effectiveness of the optimised path planning method given in this paper is proved.

Robots can be mathematically modeled with computer programs where the results can be displayed visually, so it can be used to determine the input, gain, attenuate and error parameters of the control system. In addition to the robot motion control system, to achieve the target points should need a research to get the best trajectory, so the movement of robots can be more efficient. One method that can be used to get the best path is the SOM (Self Organizing Maps) neural network. This research proposes the usage of SOM in combination with PID and Fuzzy-PD control for finding an optimal path between source and destination. SOM Neural network process is able to guide the robot manipulator through the target points. The results presented emphasize that a satisfactory trajectory tracking precision and stability could be achieved using SOM Neural networking combination with PID and Fuzzy-PD controller.The obtained average error to reach the target point when using Fuzzy-PD=2.225% and when using PID=1.965%.
