Direct Lyapunov design - A synthesis procedure for motor schema using a second-order Lyapunov stability theorem (2002)
Conference Proceeding
Harper, C., & Winfield, A. (2002). Direct Lyapunov design - A synthesis procedure for motor schema using a second-order Lyapunov stability theorem. In IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (2085-2090). https://doi.org/10.1109/IRDS.2002.1041573

In this paper we propose a new procedure for construction of motor schema typically used in behaviour-based robotics. The procedure reverses the standard stability analysis approach by searching for a control function to fit a pre-defined Lyapunov f...

Implementation of an IR approach for autonomous docking in a self-configurable robotics system
Presentation / Conference
Liu, W., & Winfield, A. F. Implementation of an IR approach for autonomous docking in a self-configurable robotics system. Paper presented at Proceedings of Towards Autonomous Robotic Systems

This paper presents an IR approach to the development of a sensor system which enables robots to autonomously dock with each other to form complex morphologies. The system includes three sub-units with different operational ranges: a short range pro...
