学术报告内容摘要及主讲人简介
Abstract: Research on biologically inspired intelligent systems has made significant
progress in both understanding the biological systems and developing bionic
engineering applications to various robotic and control systems. In this talk, I will
start with a very brief introduction to some biologically inspired intelligent systems
approaches. Then several applications of intelligent systems to biological systems and
bio-inspired systems will be briefly mentioned. After that, I will focus on our current
research on bio-inspired intelligent systems with applications to various robotics
systems and other engineering systems, including intelligent robotic e-noses for
real-time monitoring and control of livestock odors, real-time path planning, tracking
and control of autonomous mobile robots, surface and underwater robots; intelligent
tomato-harvesting robotic systems, intelligent behavior-based mobile robotic
systems for delivery, and intelligent cooperation and coordination of multi-robot
systems.
Short Biography: Prof. Yang received the B.Sc. degree in engineering physics from
Beijing University, China, in 1987, the first of his two M.Sc. degrees in biophysics
from Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China, in 1990, the second M.Sc. degree
in electrical engineering from the University of Houston, USA, in 1996, and the Ph.D.
degree in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Alberta,
Edmonton, Canada, in 1999. He joined the University of Guelph in Canada in August
1999. Currently he is a Professor and the Head of the Advanced Robotics and
Intelligent Systems (ARIS) Laboratory at the University of Guelph. Prof. Yang’s
research expertise is in the area of intelligent systems, robotics, sensors and signal
processing, multi-sensor fusion, wireless sensor networks, intelligent control, and
computational neuroscience. Dr. Yang has served as the Editor-in-Chief of Journal of
Robotics and Artificial Intelligence, and an Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on
Cybernetics, International Journal of Robotics and Automation, and several other
international journals. Dr. Yang has involved in the organization of many
international conferences. He is the General Chair of 2006 International Conference
of Sensing, Computing and Automation, and 2011 IEEE International Conference of
Automation and Logistics.
