Abstract
This article deals with the development of learning methods for an intelligent control system for an autonomous mobile robot. On the basis of visual servoing, an approach to learning the skill of tracking colored guidelines is proposed. This approach utilizes a robust and adaptive image processing method to acquire features of the colored guidelines and convert them into the controller input. The supervised learning procedure and the neural network controller are discussed. The method of obtaining the learning data and training the neural network are described. Experimental results are presented at the end of the article.
