Abstract

An automatic parking system of a car-like mobile robot is an important issue in commercial applications. An image-based fuzzy controller for an automatic parking system of a car-like mobile robot was developed in previous work, where the membership functions were tuned by experimentally. The aim of this paper is to optimize the parameters of the membership functions, which were performed in previous work, using a genetic algorithm against the complicated tuning of the controller. The details of GA implementation, such as the design parameters and choice of fitness function, are described. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the developed schemes.
