In the field of artificial intelligence, control systems for mobile robots have undergone significant advancements, particularly within the realm of autonomous learning. However, previous studies have primarily focused on predefined paths, neglecting real-time obstacle avoidance and trajectory reconfiguration. This research introduces a novel algorithm that integrates reinforcement learning with the Deep Q-Network (DQN) to empower an agent with the ability to execute actions, gather information from a simulated environment in Gazebo, and maximize rewards. Through a series of carefully designed experiments, the algorithm’s parameters were meticulously configured, and its performance was rigorously validated. Unlike conventional navigation systems, our approach embraces the exploration of the environment, facilitating effective trajectory planning based on acquired knowledge. By leveraging randomized training conditions within a simulated environment, the DQN network exhibits superior capabilities in computing complex functions compared to traditional methods. This breakthrough underscores the potential of our algorithm to significantly enhance the autonomous learning capacities of mobile robots.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
