With the substantial growth of logistics businesses the need for larger and more automated warehouses increases, thus giving rise to fully robotized shop-floors with mobile robots in charge of transporting and distributing goods. However, even in fully automatized warehouse systems the need for human intervention frequently arises, whether because of maintenance or because of fulfilling specific orders, thus bringing mobile robots and humans ever closer in an integrated warehouse environment. In order to ensure smooth and efficient operation of such a warehouse, paths of both robots and humans need to be carefully planned; however, due to the possibility of humans deviating from the assigned path, this becomes an even more challenging task. Given that, the supervising system should be able to recognize human intentions and its alternative paths in real-time. In this paper, we propose a framework for human deviation detection and intention recognition which outputs the most probable paths of the humans workers and the planner that acts accordingly by replanning for robots to move out of the human's path. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed framework increases total number of deliveries, especially human deliveries, and reduces human-robot encounters.

随着物流业务的大幅增长,对大型仓库及其自动化的需求不断增加,因此使用机器人作为人类工人的助手正在成为优先事项。为了有效和安全地操作,机器人助手或监督系统应该实时识别人类的意图。心理理论(Theory of Mind,简称ToM)是人类对他人心理状态的一种直观概念,即:信仰和欲望,以及它们如何导致行为。在本文中,我们提出了一个基于ToM的人的意图估计算法的柔性机器人仓库。我们观察人类的,即,工人的运动,并验证它相对于目标位置使用广义沃罗诺伊图为基础的路径规划。这些意见,然后处理所提出的隐马尔可夫模型框架,估计工人的意图在一个在线的方式,能够处理不断变化的环境。为了测试所提出的意图估计,我们在现实世界的实验室仓库中进行了实验,一名工人戴着微软Hololens增强现实眼镜。此外,为了证明该方法的可扩展性,以更大的仓库,我们建议使用虚拟现实数字仓库双胞胎,以逼真地模拟工人的行为。我们进行了意图估计实验,在较大的仓库数字孪生多达24个运行的机器人。我们证明了所提出的框架估计仓库工人的意图精确,并在最后,我们讨论了实验结果。

电子商务的快速增长增加了对大型仓库及其自动化的需求,因此使用机器人作为人类工人的助手成为优先事项。为了有效和安全地操作,机器人助手或监督系统应该识别人类的意图。心理理论(Theory of Mind,ToM)是对其他主体心理状态的直观概念,即,信仰和欲望,以及它们如何导致行为。在本文中,我们提出了一个基于ToM的算法,在灵活的机器人仓库的人类意图识别。我们将仓库工人置于模拟的2D环境中,其中有三个潜在目标。我们观察代理的行动,并验证他们的目标位置使用马尔可夫决策过程框架。然后,这些观察结果由所提出的隐马尔可夫模型框架进行处理,该框架估计代理的愿望。我们证明了所提出的框架预测人类仓库工人的愿望在一个直观的方式,并在最后,我们讨论了模拟结果。

图上的卵石运动是多智能体寻路问题的一个子类别,处理将多个卵石状物体从图中的一个节点移动到一个节点,并限制在给定时间只有一个卵石可以占据一个节点。此外,解决这个问题的算法假设单个鹅卵石(机器人)不能同时移动,并且它们的移动是离散的。这些假设使它们不能直接用于实际应用,尽管它们具有其他良好的理论性质。本文对Push and Rotate算法[1]进行了改进,放宽了上述假设,并通过一系列实验证明改进后的算法适用于自动化仓库的规划。
