Currently, a large number of industrial robots have been deployed to replace or assist
humans to perform various repetitive and dangerous manufacturing tasks. However, based …

Behavior Trees (BTs) provide a way to structure the behavior of an artificial agent such as a
robot or a non-player character in a computer game. Traditional design methods, such as …

Abstract Behavior Trees (BTs) were invented as a tool to enable modular AI in computer
games, but have received an increasing amount of attention in the robotics community in the …

Behavior trees (BTs) are a way of organizing the switching structure of a hybrid dynamical
system (HDS), which was originally introduced in the computer game programming …

Although a Finite State Machine (FSM) is easy to implement the behaviors of None-Player
Characters (NPC) in computer games, it is difficult to maintain and control the behaviors with …

In this paper, we show how a planning algorithm can be used to automatically create and
update a Behavior Tree (BT), controlling a robot in a dynamic environment. The planning …

Autonomous robots combine a variety of skills to form increasingly complex behaviors called
missions. While the skills are often programmed at a relatively low level of abstraction, their …

In this paper, we study the problem of automatically synthesizing a successful behavior tree
(BT) in an a priori unknown dynamic environment. Starting with a given set of actions, a …

Autonomous robots combine skills to form increasingly complex behaviors, called missions.
While skills are often programmed at a relatively low abstraction level, their coordination is …

The requirement of flexibility in the modern industries demands robots that can be efficiently
and quickly adapted to different tasks. A way to achieve such a flexible programming …
