Abstract: A system evaluates a plurality of faults in an operation of a machine at a set of future instances of time. The system uses a neural network including a first subnetwork sequentially connected with a sequence of second subnetworks for each of the future instance of time such that an output of one subnetwork is an input to a subsequent subnetwork. The first subnetwork accepts the current time-series data and the current setpoints of operation of the machine. Each of the second subnetworks accepts the output of a preceding subnetwork, an internal state of the preceding subnetwork, and a future setpoint for a corresponding future instance of time. Each of the second subnetworks outputs an individual prediction of each fault of a plurality of faults at the corresponding future instance of time.

Abstract: A system for controlling a robotic arm performing insertion of a component along an insertion line accepts measurements of force experienced by the wrist of robotic arm at current position along insertion line and determines probability of value of the force conditioned on the current value of the position according to a probabilistic relationship for the force experienced by the wrist of the robotic arm along the insertion line as a probabilistic function of the positions of the wrist of the robotic arm along the line of insertion. The probabilistic function is learned from measurements of the operation repeatedly performed by one or multiple robotic arms having the configuration of the robotic arm under the control. The system determines a result of anomaly detection based on the probability of the current value of the force and controls the robotic arm based on the result of anomaly detection.

Abstract: A method and a system for an automated parking determines, using the geometry of the vehicle and the map of the parking space, a collision free geometric path connecting an initial state of the vehicle with a target state of parked vehicle through a set of waypoints and determines, using a kinematic model of the vehicle, a set of kinematic subgraphs forming a kinematic graph having multiple nodes connected with kinematic edges. Each waypoint defines a position and orientation of the vehicle, each kinematic subgraph connects a pair of neighboring waypoints of the geometric path, each node defines a state of the vehicle, and each kinematic edge connecting two nodes defines a collision free kinematic path connecting the two nodes according to kinematics of the vehicle. A kinematic path is selected form the kinematic graph and a reference trajectory tracking the kinematic path as a function of time is determined using a dynamic model of the vehicle.
