Modern industrial applications require robots to operate in unpredictable environments, and programs to be created with a minimal effort, to accommodate frequent changes to the task. Here, we show that genetic programming can be effectively used to learn the structure of a behavior tree (BT) to solve a robotic task in an unpredictable environment. We propose to use a simple simulator for learning, and demonstrate that the learned BTs can solve the same task in a realistic simulator, converging without the need for task specific heuristics, making our method appealing for real robotic applications.

Abstract
Modern industrial applications require robots to operate in unpredictable environments, and programs to be created with a minimal effort, to accommodate frequent changes to the task. Here, we show that genetic programming can be effectively used to learn the structure of a behavior tree (BT) to solve a robotic task in an unpredictable environment. We propose to use a simple simulator for learning, and demonstrate that the learned BTs can solve the same task in a realistic simulator, converging without the need for task specific heuristics, making our method appealing for real robotic applications.File in questo prodotto:
