Enabling Artificial Intelligence Studies in Off-Road Mobility Through Physics-based Simulation of Multi-Agent Scenarios

We describe a simulation environment that enables the design and testing of control policies for off-road mobility of autonomous agents. The environment is demonstrated in conjunction with the training and assessment of a reinforcement learning policy that uses sensor fusion and inter-agent communication to enable the movement of mixed convoys of human-driven and autonomous vehicles. Policies learned on rigid terrain are shown to transfer to hard (silt-like) and soft (snow-like) deformable terrains. The environment described performs the following: multi-vehicle multibody dynamics co-simulation in a time/space-coherent infrastructure that relies on the Message Passing Interface standard for low-latency parallel computing; sensor simulation (e.g., camera, GPU, IMU); simulation of a virtual world that can be altered by the agents present in the simulation; training that uses reinforcement learning to 'teach' the autonomous vehicles to drive in an obstacle-riddled course. The software stack described is open source.

Control of the Automatic Voltage Regulator System with a Novel Stability-based Artificial Intelligence Method

This paper proposes a novel Stability-Based Artificial Intelligence Method for predicting the optimum parameters of the proportional-integral-derivative controller in an automatic voltage regulator system. To implement the stability-based artificial intelligence method, first, parameters which are of great importance for the control of the system are applied to the system randomly, data are collected, and then artificial intelligence studies are carried out. The suggested approach has been applied to the system and compared with other control methods in the literature, namely the improved Kidney Inspired algorithm, Jaya algorithm, Tree Seed algorithm, Water Wave Optimization, and Biography-Based Optimization to test the robustness of the new method. The numerical results indicate that the proposed method significantly outperforms all other methods.

The Concept of ‘Joint’ Intelligence: Its Origins and Enactment, 1900-1942: From London, Toward Wellington

<p>This thesis seeks to begin the conceptualisation of the ‘Joint’ in Intelligence. Through theorising the isolationist tendencies of Intelligence Studies, it will first position itself between foundational and peripheral knowledge bases to enable its claim to originality. From this integrative position, it will identify ‘Joint Intelligence’ as a term that describes a phenomenon in a governmental context. In contrast to existing organisational accounts, it will proceed to address the localised origins of this phenomenon through a specific conceptual lens. By acknowledging the broader system within which Joint Intelligence emerged, this thesis will argue that its immediate origins lie within the extended operationalisation of the Joint concept, denoted by a cascade of Joint institutional forms ending with the Joint Intelligence Sub-Committee (JIC) in 1936. In an effort to grasp the origins of the concept itself, this thesis will first engage in the task of conceptual substantiation. In doing so, it will locate the three ‘paternal elements’ (i.e. centralisation, inter-cooperation, and the committee-forum) that comprise the Joint concept within British constitutional administration. Following the partial enactment of the elements in the 1900-18 period, it will then observe the collective enactment of the elements in the Joint institutions of the 1920s, within which the Joint concept will begin to become formalised. Having established the origins and initial operationalisation of the concept in the foundations, its extension to the peripheral realm of intelligence-related knowledge will be undertaken. Taking a broad view of the inter-war intelligence situation, the paternal elements will be employed to traverse the landscape with a view to the functions of intelligence. This will pave the way for the inter-play between the elements, the functions, and the location within which the Joint concept came to be extended to Intelligence in 1935-38 via the JIC. The localised examination will then conclude with an analysis of the 1939-42 period, where the beginnings of the concept’s manifestation within Intelligence were instigated. Finally, the shift to the Commonwealth context will be undertaken. Starting from the premise that Britain’s ‘Joint Internationalisation’ effort occurred after the war, the respective wartime experiences of three Dominions will be drawn upon to illuminate their responses to London’s post-war plans for ‘Joint’ Intelligence and Defence. By placing the presence and absence of the model JICs in a broader context, it will be revealed that 1942 was a significant year for the Joint concept in each Dominion: for Canada, it was the creation of its own JIC; for Australia, the onset of the MacArthur Coalition; for New Zealand, the decision not to reorientate to the Pacific. Through discussing these developments in an integrative fashion, with attention being placed on Wellington, the Joint Intelligence integration and Defence disintegration in the Commonwealth will be cast in a new light.</p>
