Time series predictive control in robotics

This book presents the latest advances for the frontier cross disciplinary field of robotics, intelligent control and learning. Seven chapters are provided to cover the key common theories and technologies of robots, including the robot mapping and navigation, robot recharging and smart power management, robot arm manipulation, unmanned vehicle control, intelligent manufacturing systems, etc. The book proposes a unique new perspective using time series prediction to control robots. Especially with the fast increasing of various data in robotics, this new robot control mode using time series prediction has become very important. The book provides the complete cases for the most popular application scenes of robot predictive control. By this first monograph on the topic of robot time series predictive control in the world, author provides important references for the engineers, scientists and students in the field of robotics and artificial intelligence.
