The Role of Machine Learning in Improving Robotic Perception and Decision Making

摘要

Machine learning, specifically through Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Reinforcement Learning (RL), significantly enhances robotic perception and decision-making capabilities. This research explores the integration of CNNs to improve object recognition accuracy and employs sensor fusion for interpreting complex environments by synthesizing multiple sensory inputs. Furthermore, RL is utilized to refine robots real-time decision-making processes, which reduces task completion times and increases decision accuracy. Despite the potential, these advanced methods require extensive datasets and considerable computational resources for effective real-time applications. The study aims to optimize these machine learning models for better efficiency and address the ethical considerations involved in autonomous systems. Results indicate that machine learning can substantially advance robotic functionality across various sectors, including autonomous vehicles and industrial automation, supporting sustainable industrial growth. This aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) and SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), by promoting technological innovation and enhancing industrial safety. The conclusion suggests that future research should focus on improving the scalability and ethical application of these technologies in robotics, ensuring broad, sustainable impact.
