31. Mobile Microrobot Characterization through Performance-Based Competitions
Topic: Robotics
Published: 11/19/2009
Authors: Jason John Gorman, Craig Dyer McGray, Richard A Allen
Abstract: Recent advances in the design and fabrication of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have enabled the development of mobile microrobots that can autonomously navigate and manipulate in controlled environments. It is expected that this technology wi ...

35. Performance Evaluation of Intelligent Systems at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
Topic: Robotics
Published: 12/31/2010
Authors: Craig I Schlenoff, Harry A. Scott, Stephen B. Balakirsky
Abstract: The ability to comprehensively evaluate the quantitative and qualitative performance of an intelligent system is critical to accurately predicting how it will perform in various situations. The design of such evaluations is often as much of a researc ...

36. Performance Evaluation of Robotic Knowledge Representation (PERK)
Topic: Robotics
Published: 3/22/2012
Authors: Craig I Schlenoff, Sebti Foufou, Stephen B. Balakirsky
Abstract: In this paper, we explore some ways in which symbolic knowledge representations have been evaluated in the past and provide some thoughts on what should be considered when applying and evaluating these types of knowledge representations for real-time ...

37. Performance Measurements Towards Improved Manufacturing Vehicle Safety
Topic: Robotics
Published: 11/23/2009
Authors: Roger V Bostelman, William P Shackleford
Abstract: In this paper, we describe the current 2D (dimensional) sensor and ideal sensor configurations if 3D imagers are mounted on manufacturing vehicles in an attempt to make them more safe. Towards the ideal sensor configuration, three experiments were p ...

38. Performance Measures Framework for Unmanned Systems (PerMFUS): Initial Perspective
Topic: Robotics
Published: 2/18/2010
Authors: Hui-Min Huang, Elena R Messina, Adam S Jacoff
Abstract: The performance of intelligent unmanned systems (UMS) must be able to be measured to ensure that they can meet the operational requirements. A generic framework to enable capturing and organizing the performance metrics are highly desirable. In thi ...

39. Performance Measures Framework for Unmanned Systems (PerMFUS): Models for Contextual Metrics
Topic: Robotics
Published: 7/31/2012
Authors: Hui-Min Huang, Elena R Messina, Adam S Jacoff, Robert Wade, Micheal McNail
Abstract: In the development of the Performance Measures Framework for Unmanned Systems (PerMFUS), we have established a multiple-axis performance metrics model for the unmanned systems (UMS). This model characterizes the UMS performance requirements by the m ...
