Advances in Robot Learning: 8th European Workhop on Learning Robots, EWLR-8 Lausanne, Switzerland, September 18, 1999 Proceedings

by Jeremy Wyatt (Editor), John Demiris (Editor)

Overview

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 8th European Workshop on Learning Robots, EWLR'99, held in Lausanne, Switzerland in September 1999.
The seven revised full workshop papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. Also included are two invited full papers. Among the topics addressed are map building for robot navigation, multi-task reinforcement learning, neural network approaches, example-based learning, situated agents, planning maps for mobile robots, path finding, autonomous robots, and biologically inspired approaches.
