In the similar manner, a new goal configuration ({varvec{q}}{'_{text {goal}}}) can be obtained.
In the studied manipulation method, an object is manipulated to its goal configuration by a sequence of juggles.
This is illustrated with the design of a controller for the safe navigation of an autonomous car-like robot among possible obstacles toward a goal configuration.
It addresses the problem of active sensing, i.e. the selection of a robot motion or sequence of motions, which make the robot arrive in its desired goal configuration (position and orientation) with maximum accuracy, given the available sensor information.
We analyze the behavior of the path planning algorithm and specially define the environments where the path planning algorithm will guarantee collision-free paths that lead to a goal configuration.
The subject's task consisted of copying the goal configuration by moving the balls in the start configuration (Fig. 2b, c).
Briefly, there was a goal configuration on the upper part of the screen and a start configuration on the lower part, each containing three pockets of different sizes (Fig. 2a).
The aim is to move the set of disks to the specified goal configuration in the least number of moves possible, while overcoming two specific restrictions (i.e. a larger disk may not be placed on top of a smaller disk and only one disk can be moved at a time).
In such situation a robust functional plasticity of the encoding network in the DG is required because an encoding rule acquired previously during the first acquisition phase has to be omitted in favor of a new one representing the changed cue-goal configurations.
In summary, although these macrostates are optimized with respect to an agent's motor capabilities and not to a particular navigational goal, optimized configurations offer better navigability than control configurations.
The Domain Builder builds an initial version of the composition problem, which is made of a context model, a set of available annotated fragments, the current context configuration (current states of context properties), and a set of goal context configurations.
