Robot Cognition and Navigation : An Experiment with Mobile Robots by Srikanta, Patnaik, Srikatana Patnaik - gebrauchtes Buch

This book presents the concept of cognition in a clear, lucid and highly comprehensive style. It provides an in-depth analysis of mathematical models, algorithms and demonstrates their application with a real-life experiment. The text covers soft computing tools and techniques with fundamentals and also addresses the experimental details for robot programming and simulation for 3D perception, high-level image processing and machine learning. The book is unique in its clear representation and the overall completeness of its treatment of robot programming. It provides a practical and detailed introduction that will prove valuable to students who are developing various algorithms for intelligent robots, while the book will also be valuable for researchers new to this discipline.
