Organization of the agenda of a tour-guide robot based on fuzzy logic

Abstract

One of the main objectives for a robot-guide is a proper management of the agenda in all the activities that has to develop over a period of time. The agenda is dynamic, changes and new tasks occur, others are completed and priority should be given to perform at all times the most appropriate task. A decision-making mechanism based on fuzzy logic is proposed, so that the tasks are prioritized according to the agenda. The modeling of the quality index of the best choice to perform is made using fuzzy logic and it represents the beliefs of the robot. This fuzzy system is used to select the most appropriate set of tasks to perform during the day. The updating of the criteria, the learning, is made using genetic algorithms.
