摘要：
Evolutionary robots, like autonomous artificial organisms, automatically develop their own skills by interaction with the environment. This talk will focus on evolutionary locomotion control of mobile robots using computational intelligence techniques, including fuzzy systems and evolutionary computation. First, I will introduce the basic concept of evolutionary fuzzy systems (EFSs) that learn fuzzy systems through evolutionary computation algorithms. The advantage of using a fuzzy system as an interpretable AI model will also be introduced. Next, learning control of a wheeled/hexapod robot through multiobjective EFSs for wall following will be introduced. To boost the learning efficiency of multiobjective EFSs in this application, the technique of reinforcement neural fuzzy surrogate-assisted learning will be given. Then, I will present the method of navigating a single mobile robot in unknown environments using the learned wall-following behavior. Finally, learning control of multiple wheeled robots cooperatively carrying an object through multiobjective EFSs for wall following and its navigation application will be presented.
