Essay 7ENT1116: Artificial Intelligence – Neural Network Control of a Mobile Robot – Report Writing – Networking Assignment Help

Assignment Task:

Overview of the Task
The file left_wall_follower.fis contains a Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) that can be used as a controller to guide the simulated robot successfully around the test environment. This file and a version of FIS_navigate.m that uses it as a controller can be downloaded from Student. This FIS can be used to generate training data for a neural network. Your main task is to design, train and test a neural network that can generate appropriate actuator outputs when being presented with sensor inputs. This trained network can then be used as a controller and demonstrated in the KiKs simulator.

Questions to Consider in Your Experiments
During this investigation, you should consider and investigate (at least) the following questions:

• What is the best way to generate the training data?
• What type of neural network should you use?
• How many layers should you use?
• What transfer functions should you use for each layer?
• Does the training data have to be “normalised” to give input and output values that are in appropriate ranges for the neural network?
• How many neurons should you include in each layer (particularly any hidden layers)?
• What training algorithms should you use?
• Does the network show any signs of overfitting, with the corresponding poor generalisation?
• How well does the trained neural network work as a controller for the robot?
