Research Abstract |
The curiosity and instinctive desires are useful for autonomous development, learning, behavior acquisition and space exploration for robots. In this study we define the curiosity and instinctive desires properly, and show how these can be used effectively for robust behavior selection and quick inference for the self-localization of autonomous robots, quick behavior acquisition in pursuit games, and solution space exploration in the optimization problems and layout problems.
