General Process Flow(一般流程)

An agent receives information from the server which it processes in NaoBehavior::Think() after parsing the information in parser/parser.cc. Next an agent decides what to do in NaoBehavior::act() which typically involves selecting a skill (such as walking or a kick) to execute in NaoBehavior::selectSkill(). During the execution of a skill an agent determines new positions to move its joints to which are controlled by sending velocity commands (computed by PID controllers) to the server in servercomm/primitives.cc.

  1. 在解析 parser/parser.cc 中的信息之后,代理(agent)接收来自服务器(server)在NaoBehavior::Think()中加工的信息。
  2. 代理决定去执行 NaoBehavior::act() 中的指令,指令通常包括 selecting a skill(such as walking or a kick)在NaoBehavior::selectSkill()中执行。
  3. 在一个 skill 执行期间,代理准确计算出新的位置,并通过发送velocity代码(通过PID控制器)到 servercomm/primitives.cc 中的 server,去移动 关节(joints)

World Model

Agents build a model of the world based on their observations in the worldmodel directory files. This includes localizing themselves through the use of a particle filter (files in the particlefilter directory) and using Kalman filters (files in the kalman directory) to track the position of the ball and opponent agents. The world model allows for easy conversion of positions from/to local (relative to the agent) and global coordinate systems through the worldModel->l2g() and worldModel->g2l() methods. Information about different objects in the world are stored in WorldObjects (worldmodel/WorldObject.h).

  1. 在worldmodel文件种,基于对 他们的观察,Agents 构建一个这个世界的模型。
  2. 通过 particle filter(粒子过滤器)(文件在 particlefilter directory) 去定位他们自己。
  3. 使用 Kalman filters(Kalman过滤器)(文件在 kalman directory)去追踪球的位置 和 敌人的位置。
  4. world model 允许通过 worldModel->l2g() 和 worldModel->g2l() 方法 轻松地将位置与本地(相对于agent)和全局坐标系之间的位置进行转换
  5. 有关不同对象的信息存储在WorldObjects(worldmodel / WorldObject.h)中。

Drawings in Roboviz(在Roboviz中绘图)

Agents can draw objects in the roboviz monitor (https://github.com/magmaOffenburg/RoboViz) by sending commands to roboviz’s drawing port. See the files in the rvdraw directory for commands to draw objects in roboviz, as well as example drawing commands in behaviors/strategy.cc and behaviors/naobehavior.cc. By default the agent tries to connect to a version of roboviz running on the localhost, however it can connect to a remotely running instance of roboviz by using the start script command line option -mh <roboviz_host> to connect to an instance of roboviz running on a remote machine.

  1. 代理可以通过向 roboviz 中的 roboviz’s drawing port发送命令,在 roboviz monitor (https://github.com/magmaOffenburg/RoboViz)中绘制对象。
  2. 有关在 robovi z中绘制对象的命令,请查看 rvdraw目录中的文件,以及behaviors / strategy.cc和behaviors / naobehavior.cc中的绘制命令示例。
  3. 默认情况下,agent 会尝试连接到在本地主机上运行的roboviz版本,但是可以使用启动脚本命令行选项-mh <roboviz_host>连接到远程计算机上运行的roboviz实例,从而连接到远程运行的roboviz实例。

Skills

Agents have skills they can execute, such as getting up after falling and kicking the ball. Skills typically consist of a series of fixed poses that an agent moves through. Skills for standing up after falling are contained in behaviors/checkfall.cc. Other skills, such as those for kicking, use a skill description language to define them. Documentation about the skill description language, as well as some example kicking skills using the skill description language, are contained are in the skills directory.

  1. Agents 有他们可以执行的 skills ,例如 在摔倒 和 踢球后 站起。
  2. Skills 通常由 agent 通过一系列的固定姿势组成。
  3. 跌倒后站起的 skills 包含在 behaviors/checkfall.cc 中,

Walk Engine

Agents use a double inverted pendulum omnidirectional walk engine to move. Code for the walk engine can be found in the utwalk directory. To move to a target location on the field agents can use NaoBehavior::goToTarget() or, to specify an exact direction, rotation, and speed to the walk engine, NaoBehavior::getWalk() can be used. Parameters that control the walk engine are contained in parameter files, and a default set of walk engine parameters that provide a slow and stable walk, as well as optimized walk engine parameters for positioning/dribbling and approaching the ball to kick, are included in this release. More information about the walk engine, as well as the process UT Austin Villa used to optimize parameters for the walk engine, can be found in the following paper:Patrick MacAlpine, Samuel Barrett, Daniel Urieli, Victor Vu, and Peter Stone.Design and Optimization of an Omnidirectional Humanoid Walk: A Winning Approach at the RoboCup 2011 3D Simulation Competition.In Proceedings of the Twenty-Sixth AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI), July 2012.

Kicking

Two example kicking skills are included in this code release: one basic kicking skill and the other using inverse kinematics. To kick the ball use the kickBall() method which takes in both a kick type (can be either a kick or dribble) and a position to kick the ball toward. Code for approaching the ball and executing a kick is in behaviors/kicking.cc. More information about what the UT Austin Villa team has done to develop and optimize kicks can be found in the following publications:Mike Depinet, Patrick MacAlpine, and Peter Stone.Keyframe Sampling, Optimization, and Behavior Integration: Towards Long-Distance Kicking in the RoboCup 3D Simulation League.In Reinaldo A.

Optimization ​

A considerable amount of the UT Austin Villa team’s efforts in preparing for RoboCup competitions has been in the area of skill optimization and optimizing parameters for walks and kicks. Example agents for optimizing a kick and forward walk are provided in the optimization directory. Optimization agents perform some task (such as kicking a ball) and then determine how well they did at the task (such as how far they kicked the ball) with the updateFitness() method. When performing an optimization task agents are able to change the world as needed (such as move themselves and the ball around) by sending training command parser commands to the server on the monitor port through the setMonMessage() method. More information about optimizations performed by the team can be found in the following paper:Patrick MacAlpine and Peter Stone.Overlapping Layered Learning.Artificial Intelligence (AIJ), 254:21-43, Elsevier, January 2018. (http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~pstone/Papers/bib2html/b2hd-AIJ18-MacAlpine.html)
