Autonomous Systems and Applications

The Autonomous Systems and Applications (ASA) Book Series present the emerging trends in the development of theoretical and practical oriented results within the context of autonomous systems. With the rapid development and integrated automation in autonomous systems such as vehicles and robots, incremental challenges in the utilization of information for decision making, control systems and design engineering solutions are supposed to inspire students, researchers and practicing engineers in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, control systems engineering, ocean engineering and mechatronics. This Book Series aim to provide some features such as graduate-level texts, editorial books, and research monographs on Autonomous Systems and Applications. The topics of this book series include but are not limited to Conceptual mechanical designs for autonomous systems, Sensing and actuation complexities in autonomous systems, Modeling and optimization design issues for autonomous systems, Automation and control design techniques for autonomous systems, artificial intelligence and learning technologies in autonomous systems, health monitoring and reliability issues in autonomous systems, and application studies.
