Abstract

In this paper a multiobjective dynamic constrained evolutionary algorithm is proposed for control of a multi-segment articulated manipulator. The algorithm is tested in simulated dynamic environments with moving obstacles. The algorithm does not require previous training - a feasible sequence of movements is found and maintained based on a population of candidate movements. The population is evolved using typical evolutionary operators as well as several new ones that are dedicated for the manipulator control task. The algorithm is shown to handle manipulators with up to 100 segments. The increased maneuverability of the manipulator with 100 segments is well utilized by the algorithm. The results obtained for such manipulator are better than for the 10-segment one which is computationally easier to handle.
