Balabza lab is a community of scientists whose goal is to develop
scientific and application projects in the various fields of
Computer Science.
The laboratory is actively working in the fields of unmanned
vehicles, autonomous robotic systems, next generation expert
systems and in other areas of Artificial Intelligence.
Mivar-based intelligent planner of robot actions – MIPRA
For the first time in the world, mivar expert systems were
used for solving action planning problems for robotic
systems. The
Wi!Mi (KESMI) Razumator
solution was used to create a mivar-based system called
MIPRA (mivar-based intelligent planner of robot
actions), which delivers a qualitative (by several orders of
magnitude) boost to the process of solving STRIPS-type
problems, i. e. constructing algorithms for planning the
actions of a robot tasked with relocating blocks in the
blocks-world domain.
The mivar approach implemented in MIPRA allows it to handle
tasks with more than three towers on the table and with
varied numbers of blocks, even in changing conditions.
Mivar control system of enforcing traffic regulations – MCS
TR
One of the most important components of saving lives on the
roads is to improve road traffic safety by means of
enforcing traffic regulations by drivers.
Mivar technologies of the
development of expert systems based on logical inference
machine
Razumator
are capable of processing in real time the information
received from the system of technical vision about the road
situation and build algorithms of the driver's actions that
are fully consistent with traffic regulations. Thus,
currently, there are all necessary modules to create Mivar
control systems of enforcing traffic regulations (MCS TR) on
the basis of Razumator and expert systems that can be used
for driver assistance systems. Such systems will prompt the
driver the maneuvers allowed by traffic regulations, and in
case of violation of traffic regulations will inform about
the violation. In case of legislative authorization Mivar
control systems of enforcing traffic regulations will inform
state body about the violation and fine a driver similar way
to the existing complexes of fixation of violations of
traffic regulations. Mivar control system of traffic
regulations will be installed in cars to help drivers and
evaluate their actions through the whole volume of traffic
regulations, in contrast to existing systems which are able
to capture only the "simple" violations of the regulations
(one rule "If-Then").
The proposed concept of constructing Mivar control systems
of enforcing traffic regulations meets the requirement of
economic accessibility of the product for a wide range of
buyers. MCS TR can be embedded in new cars in factories or
can be installed as additional equipment in the cars which
are already in use. Due to the high computational power of
Mivar Razumators, there are big opportunities for
implementation of high-speed driver assistance systems and
decision support systems for unmanned vehicles; this is
especially important for real fast-changing road conditions.
