WTA 2007 - III.1 - Adaptive Automata Applied on Automation and Robotics (A4R)

This paper presents the researches conducted using Adaptive Automata (AA) theory in robotics equipments, process and systems. The generalization and behavior adaptation features of AA allow their application for process modeling, identification, classification and decision making in the same way as traditional computational logic such as Fuzzy Logic and Artificial Neural Networks. As sample of AA applications, the paper presents the research on pattern recognition and the research on hybrid mapping for robot navigation.
