  2. Lecture 2 Design principles for intelligent systems

  3. Contents Lecture 2 • real worlds and virtual worlds • properties of complete agents • the quadruped „Puppy“ as a complex dynamical system • illustration of selected design principles • summary

  4. Contents Lecture 2 • real worlds and virtual worlds • properties of complete agents • the quadruped „Puppy“ as a complex dynamical system • illustration of selected design principles • summary

  5. Real worlds and virtual worlds differences?

  6. Real worlds and virtual worlds differences? chess vs. soccer

  7. Real worlds and virtual worlds • information acquisition takes time • limited information • noise • no clearly defined states • agents must do several things • own dynamics, time pressure • limited predictability, non-linear, sensitivity to initial conditions  bounded rationality

  8. Contents Lecture 2 • real worlds and virtual worlds • properties of complete agents • the quadruped „Puppy“ as a complex dynamical system • illustration of selected design principles • summary

  9. Properties of complete agents • subject to the laws of physics • generation sensory stimulation • affect the environment through behavior • complex dynamical systems • perform morphological computation

  10. Contents Lecture 2 • real worlds and virtual worlds • properties of complete agents • the quadruped „Puppy“ as a complex dynamical system • illustration of selected design principles • summary

  11. Rapid locomotion and “cheap design” • hard problem

  12. Rapid locomotionthe quadruped “Puppy” rapid locomotion in biological systems Design and construction: Fumiya Iida

  13. The quadruped “Puppy”: summary • simple control (!) • no sensors • spring-like material properties • self-stabilization Design and construction: Fumiya Iida

  14. The quadruped “Puppy”: summary • simple control (!) • no sensors • spring-like material properties • self-stabilization principle of “cheap design” Design and construction: Fumiya Iida

  15. The “mini dog” by Fumiya Iida Artificial Intelligence Laboratory Dept. of Information TechnologyUniversity of Zurich

  16. The quadruped “Puppy”: summary • simple control (!) • no sensors • spring-like material properties • self-stabilization Design and construction: Fumiya Iida

  17. “Puppy” on the treadmill

  18. Video from high-speed camera –self-stabilization

  19. Video from high-speed camera –self-stabilization - no sensors - no control

  20. Self-stabilization • “computation” performed by physical dynamics of agent  basin of attraction • stabilization through mechanical feedback • “intra-attractor dynamics” (Kuniyoshi)

  21. Implications of embodiment Pfeifer et al., Science, 16 Nov. 2007)

  22. Implications of embodiment – self-stabilization “Puppy” Pfeifer et al., Science, 16 Nov. 2007)

  24. Gait patterns as attractor states induced through interaction with environment Illustration by Shun Iwasawa

  25. Morphological computation Figure 4.1 Morphological computation. (a) Sprawl robot exploiting the material properties of its legs for rapid locomotion. The elasticity in the linear joint provided by the air pressure system allows for automatic adaptivity of locomotion over uneven ground, thus reducing the need for computation. (b) An animal exploiting the material properties of its legs (the elasticity of its muscle-tendon system) thus also reducing computation. (c) A robot built from stiff materials must apply complex control to adjust to uneven ground and will therefore be very slow.

  30. The Three-Constituents Principle • ecological niche • desired behaviors and tasks • design of agent itself scaffolding

  31. Complete Agent Principle When designing an agent, always thank about complete agent behaving in real world.
