Work aimed at formulating analytically the theory of intelligent machines is summarized. The functions of an intelligent machine are executed by intelligent controls. The principle of increasing precision with decreasing intelligence is used to form a hierarchical structure of the control systems. Distributed intelligence is compatible with such a structure when it is used for teams of intelligent machines or cooperating coordinators within the machine. The three levels of the intelligent control, i.e. the organization, coordination, and execution levels, are described as originally conceived. Designs such as neural nets for the organization level and Petri nets for the coordination level are also proposed. Applications to intelligent robots for space exploration are considered. >read more

Next-generation manufacturing systems: key research issues in developing and integrating reconfigurable and intelligent machines
Arturo Molina,Ciro A. Rodríguez,Horacio Ahuett,J. A. Cortés,Miguel Ramírez,Gabriel Jiménez,S. Martinez +6 more
TL;DR: It is argued that manufacturing systems of the next generation will have to incorporate more flexibility and intelligence, evolving towards reconfigurable manufacturing systems, and the concept of ‘intelligence’ becomes more relevant because of the need to maintain effective and efficient manufacturing operations with minimum downtime under conditions of uncertainty.

A coordination theory for intelligent machines
Fei-Yue Wang,George N. Saridis +1 more
TL;DR: This dissertation presents an analytical model for the Coordination Level of Intelligent Machines, which, together with the established mathematical formulation for the Organization Level and the well developed control theory for the Execution Level, completes the first step toward a mathematical theory for Intelligent Machines.

Measuring the machine intelligence quotient (MIQ) of human-machine cooperative systems
TL;DR: A new human-oriented method for estimating machine intelligence quotient of human-machine cooperative systems is proposed and will help engineers assess intelligent machines that are designed to perform human-like qualities with a high degree of autonomy.

Intelligent material handling: development and implementation of a matrix-based discrete-event controller
José Mireles,Frank L. Lewis +1 more
TL;DR: The authors implement the DE controller on an actual three-robot intelligent material handling cell at the Automation and Robotics Research Institute, University of Texas at Arlington, USA and show that the actual implementation and the simulated system give commensurate results.

Machine intelligence quotient: its measurements and applications
TL;DR: The notion of machine intelligence is investigated, based on extensive literature survey, and two methods to measure intelligence of a machine are proposed, which adopt two fuzzy integrals, Sugeno fuzzy integral and Choquet fuzzy integral.

Information Theory and Statistical Mechanics. II
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider statistical mechanics as a form of statistical inference rather than as a physical theory, and show that the usual computational rules, starting with the determination of the partition function, are an immediate consequence of the maximum-entropy principle.

A New Approach to Manipulator Control: The Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller (CMAC)
TL;DR: Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller is a neural network that models the structure and function of the part of the brain known as the cerebellum that exhibits properties such as generalization, learning interference, discrimination, and forgetting that are characteristic of motor learning in biological creatures.

An Approximation Theory of Optimal Control for Trainable Manipulators
George N. Saridis,C.S.G. Lee +1 more
TL;DR: A theoretical procedure is developed for comparing the performance of arbitrarily selected admissible controls among themselves and with the optimal solution of a nonlinear optimal control problem and a recursive algorithm is proposed for sequential improvement of the control law which converges to the optimal.

Intelligent robotic control
TL;DR: A theoretical approach is developed to deal with man-machine interactive systems requiring advanced decision making in unpredictable environments and consists of a three-layer control of "increasing intelligence and decreasing precision".
