报告摘要：Autonomy and automation benefit human kind tremendously and enable us go much beyond of our imagination. Manufacturing equipment including robotics and high-valued machines are designed with sophisticated functionalities. Robots and automation also move outdoor and into the human’s living environments. These machines include mobile robotics and autonomous vehicles. They have to be equipped with intelligence and the sophistication brings in the complex to the robots and autonomous systems. These robots and autonomous machines will be deployed in large quantity in the near future. The integrity and survivability of these machines in service are critical to the productivity of robotics/automation and the acceptance into our society. This talk presents the motivation, modeling, approach and some achievements that are carried out in our lab in Nanyang Technological University. Both new concepts of model-based diagnosis and prognosis as well as execution in some complex systems in robotics and automation are presented. This talk also presents the overviews of activities of our ST Engineering – NTU Corporate Laboratory which is a joint R&D hub between academics and industries aiming to generate workable technologies for the practical systems and applications.
