The Selecting of Artificial Intelligence Technology for Control of Mobile Robots

The article analyzes the application of artificial intelligence methods for control of mobile robots. The proposed method of selecting of the optimal artificial intelligence technology by the set of available technologies for control of mobile robots allows to improve the functional characteristics of the robot control system as a whole and its individual subsystems by the optimal coverage of a set of tasks and procedures solved by the robot control system. The method is based on the description of the initial information in the form of preference relations on a set of alternatives. As a solution to the problem of selecting an optimal information technology is adopted the most nondominant alternative. The proposed method was applied to the selection of the optimal artificial intelligence technology for modelling traffic control and technical operation field irrigation in developing control system of mobile robotic sprinkler system “Fregat”, This method can be implemented in the design of software not only for mobile robots, but robots for other purposes.
