Robot Behavior Coordination Inspired by Decision-Making Neurophysiological Mechanism

Behavior coordination is important to the design of behaviorbased robot. Inspired by neurophysiological mechanism of decisionmaking, the relative probability of behaviors is expressed by likelihood ratio, which accumulates information coming from both a variety of sensors and different times. Then, the robot′s behavior is chosen according to the sequence of behaviors′ relative probability. The simulation of pushing stick shows the validity of the proposed method.
