— This paper addresses the problem of acquiring a hierarchically structured robotic skill in a nonstationary environment. This is achieved through a combination of learning primi...
In this paper we implement a computational model of a neuromodulatory system in an autonomous robot. The output of the neuromodulatory system acts as a value signal, modulating wi...
Abstract— Autonomous robot navigation in unstructured outdoor environments is a challenging and largely unsolved area of active research. The navigation task requires identifying...
