Consider the task of a mobile robot autonomously navigating through an environment while detecting and mapping objects of interest using a noisy object detector. The robot must re...
This article describes a developmental system based on information theory implemented on a real robot that learns a model of its own sensory and actuator apparatus. There is no in...

We present a novel connectionist model for acquiring the semantics of a simple language through the behavioral experiences of a real robot. We focus on the “compositionality” ...
We review the current state of research in autonomous mobile robots and conclude that there is an inadequate basis for predicting the reliability and behavior of robots operating ...
This paper presents a method of vision-based reinforcement learning by which a robot learns to shoot a ball into a goal, and discusses several issues in applying the reinforcement...
Q-learning, a most widely used reinforcement learning method, normally needs well-defined quantized state and action spaces to converge. This makes it difficult to be applied to re...
Abstract. This paper presents Webots: a realistic mobile robot simulator allowing a straightforward transfer to real robots. The simulator currently support the Khepera mobile robo...
An agent must acquire internal representation appropriate for its task, environment, sensors. As a learning algorithm, reinforcement learning is often utilized to acquire the rela...
We describe the first instance of an approach for control programming of humanoid robots, based on evolution as the main adaptation mechanism. In an attempt to overcome some of th...
We introduce a technique that allows a real robot to execute real-time learning, in which GP and RL are integrated. In our former research, we showed the result of an experiment wi...
