In recent years in mobile robotics, the focus has been on methods, in which the fusion of measurement data from various systems leads to models of the environment that are of a probabilistic type. The cognitive model of the environment is less accurate than the exact mathematical one, but it is unavoidable in the robot collaborative interaction with a human. The subject of the research proposed in this paper is the development of a model for learning and planning robot operations. The task of operations and mapping the unknown environment, similar to how humans do the same tasks in the same conditions has been explored. The learning process is based on a virtual dynamic model of a mobile robot, identical to a real mobile robot. The mobile robot’s motion with developed artificial neural networks and genetic algorithms is defined. The transfer method of obtained knowledge from simulated to a real system (Sim-To-Real; STR) is proposed. This method includes a training step, a simultaneous reasoning step, and an application step of trained and learned knowledge to control a real robot’s motion. Use of the basic cognitive elements language, a robot’s environment, and its correlation to that environment is described. Based on that description, a higher level of information about the mobile robot’s environment is obtained. The information is directly generated by the fusion of measurement data obtained from various systems.

The localization of multiple scattering objects is performed while using scattered waves. An up-to-date approach: neural networks are used to estimate the corresponding locations. In the scattering phenomenon under investigation, we assume known incident plane waves, fully reflecting balls with known diameters and measurement data of the scattered wave on one fixed segment. The training data are constructed while using the simulation package μ-diff in Matlab. The structure of the neural networks, which are widely used for similar purposes, is further developed. A complex locally connected layer is the main compound of the proposed setup. With this and an appropriate preprocessing of the training data set, the number of parameters can be kept at a relatively low level. As a result, using a relatively large training data set, the unknown locations of the objects can be estimated effectively.

As the siginificant factors influence passengers comfort, the vehicle celebration performance may easy to cause accidents, such as hard acceleration and deceleration performance. In order to find the relationship between passengers comfort and celebration performance, 35 passengers and three professional drivers were recruited in the field experiment. The passengers’ comfort feelings were analysed by subject questionnaires, the acceleration and deceleration data were received by CAN bus.The Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) model was elaborated to estimate and predict the passengers comfort level of driver unsafe acceleration behavior situations. Therefore, the subject views of the passengers could be compared to object acceleration data. An ANN is applied to interconnect output data (subjective rating) with input data (objective parameters). Finally, it is found the investigatioin have demonstrated that the objective values are efficiently correlated with the subjective sensation. Thus, the presented approach can be effectively applied to support the drive train development of bus.

Neural-symbolic computing has now become the subject of interest of both academic and industry research laboratories. Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have been widely used in relational and symbolic domains, with widespread application of GNNs in combinatorial optimization, constraint satisfaction, relational reasoning and other scientific domains. The need for improved explainability, interpretability and trust of AI systems in general demands principled methodologies, as suggested by neural-symbolic computing. In this paper, we review the state-of-the-art on the use of GNNs as a model of neural-symbolic computing. This includes the application of GNNs in several domains as well as their relationship to current developments in neural-symbolic computing.

Rotational Dynamics is one of the physics topics which is quite difficult for students. Several previous studies showed students’ difficulties on this topic, one of which is the aspect of students’ conceptual understanding. Modeling instruction is the effective approach to improve students’ understanding. This model is in line with constructivist theory and cognitive model theory. This research aimed to examine the effectiveness of modeling instruction that we developed to improve students' conceptual understanding of rigid body mechanics, where the knowledge of particle mechanics serve as anchor or bridging to develop model of rigid body. This research used mixed method with embedded experimental design. It used one group pretest-posttest design and involved 65 students of a high school in Malang as the subject. Data were gathered using test consisting of 17 multiple-choice items with explanation. The students’ scores were analyzed quantitatively using t-test and N-gain to measure the improvement of students’ understanding, while the students' reasons were analyzed qualitatively. The results showed the average students’ score increased from 1.62 to 9.92 with N-gain of 0.54 (in upper medium category). We concluded that the modeling instruction was effective to improve students’ conceptual understanding.
