Fusion of fuzzy behaviors for autonomous robots

Abstract

A new methodological approach to solve the problem of integrating different behaviors in autonomous robots is developed in this paper. It relies on the succesful integration of several fuzzy relational algorithms (Zadeh73), each one specialized in a different task. The whole system is based on a continiously act on sensor data (reactive) approach. The problem is how to got an intelligent behavior from low level reactive controllers. Our assumption is that we can obtain adecuate response to unkown external situations from the fusion of basic actions
