In the configuration shown in FIG. 1, the forward speed of the ARV is controlled by the operator output control command v h Direct control, shared control command psi generated by shared control module by using shared control method based on multi-objective optimization share And (5) controlling.
As shown in fig. 2, the autonomous control module in fig. 1 is configured to generate a heading angle sharing control command ψ share The sharing control method based on multi-objective optimization comprises three parts of an objective function, constraint conditions and an optimization method, wherein the constraint conditions are determined by a security evaluation function. The objective function and constraint condition transform the shared control of ARV heading angle into control command variable psi (psi E (-pi, pi)]) As a multi-objective optimization problem of decision variables, solving the problem by an optimization method to obtain the optimal solution of psi, namely the shared control command psi of ARV heading angle share . The objective function, constraint and optimization method are described in detail below.
In the embodiment, three objective functions of obedience (psi), autonomy (psi) and stability (psi) are respectively designed to evaluate different values of psi with the aim of obeying the control intention of operators, improving the safety of ARVs, reducing the operation complexity of operators and optimizing the motion path of ARVs. The objective functions are all designed into a negative exponential function form based on natural constants, and the negative exponential function is shown as the following formula:
aim(ψ)=exp(-χ|ψ-ψ aim |)
in the formula, aim represents an objective function, ψ aim Exp () is an exponential function with a natural constant as a base, which is an optimization target of the objective function; x is more than or equal to 0; the value ranges of the objective functions of this form are all in the interval (0, 1]In, facilitate the adaptation to different objective functionsIs compared with the function value of (a). The size and psi of the function value of the objective function meet the corresponding objective psi aim Is positive in degree of correlation, ψ=ψ at the symmetry axis aim The maximum value 1 is obtained and is decreased to two sides, the decreasing speed of the function value can be changed by adjusting the shape coefficient χ, the greater the χ is, the faster the decreasing speed is, and particularly, when χ is zero, the function value is constant to be 1; in this embodiment, the minimum-maximum method is used as an optimization method to solve the multi-objective optimization problem, and the optimization result is determined by the objective function with the minimum function value, so that the larger the shape coefficient of the objective function is, the larger the influence on the optimization result is, and when the shape coefficient is 0, the influence on the optimization result is avoided, so that the effect of each objective function in the multi-objective optimization problem solution can be conveniently adjusted by adjusting the shape coefficient. The design of the three objective functions is described below.
In an environmental exploration task, the movement of an ARV first needs to follow the control intent of the operator to meet the operator's observation needs. The embodiment adopts the psi h Representing the control intention of the operator, a compliance function obedience (ψ) shown in the following formula is designed for evaluating the compliance of ψ h The degree of (3):
obedience(ψ)=exp(-α|ψ-ψ h |)
where α is the shape factor of the compliance function, and its value is determined by:
wherein alpha is max For a constant greater than 0, according to the skill level setting of the operator, the higher the skill level, the α max The larger the ARV is, the more compliant the operator's control commands are in the shared control based on multi-objective optimization; d, d min Is the minimum distance of the ARV to the obstacle; the formula is according to d min Adjusting the value of alpha to change the extent to which the operator affects ARV movement, d min The smaller the shape factor of the compliance function, the smaller the influence of the compliance function on the optimization result, the corresponding decrease, the operator remotely controls the weight decrease in the sharing control of the ARV,the ARV is more subject to control commands of the autonomous control system to secure its safety.
The ARV should also obey the control command ψ of the autonomous control system in the environment exploration task apf To assist the operation of the operator and improve the safety of the ARV, the present embodiment designs an autonomy (ψ) as an autonomy function for evaluating ψ and ψ apf Is a difference in (a) between the two.
autonomy(ψ)=exp(-γ|ψ-ψ apf |)
Where γ is the shape factor of the autonomy function, and its value is determined by:
wherein, gamma max A constant greater than 0. The formula is according to d mmin Adjusting the value of gamma to make phi apf At d only min <d share The ARV is moved away from the obstacle, and the influence of the shape factor on the objective function in the multi-objective optimization can be determined, wherein when the ARV is far away from the obstacle, the autonomous control system has no influence on the movement of the ARV.
The appropriate reduction of the abrupt change of the control command with respect to the current movement direction may make the movement state of the ARV more stable, thereby reducing the complexity of the operator's operation and making the movement path of the ARV smoother. Therefore, the present embodiment designs stability function stability (ψ) shown in the following formula for evaluating the relationship of ψ with respect to ψ ARV The degree of variation of (2):
stability(ψ)=exp(-β|ψ-ψ ARV |)
wherein beta is>0 is the shape coefficient of the stability function, the larger the beta is, the larger the influence of the stability function on the optimization result is, and the generated psi is optimized share Relative to psi ARV The smaller the variation of (c). Too large β will make ARV less prone to change direction of motion, thus setting β to a small positive constant.
As shown in fig. 3, the constraint condition is a set I of the value intervals of the heading angle control command variable ψ safe =[I 1 ,I 2 ,...,I m ](m is the number of the value intervals) and is determined by a security evaluation function; the safety evaluation function is calculated according to the distribution of the obstacles in the local environment so as to ensure the safety of the ARV in the task. In the environment exploration task, the present embodiment determines a security evaluation function according to the principle that the greater the distance between the ARV and the obstacle, the higher the security, the direction and distance information of surrounding obstacle distribution acquired by acoustic, optical, etc. sensors carried by the ARV. The grid map within the active window of fig. 3 is used to calculate a security assessment function.
In the present embodiment, the security evaluation function is designed as a piecewise function, the independent variable of which is ψ (i.e. the definition domain is the interval (-pi, pi ]). In the polar coordinate system, the definition domain is piecewise according to the region division with the included angle θ in fig. 3, the function value in each definition domain is constant, the size of the function value is determined according to d in the corresponding region in fig. 3, the larger d is, the smaller the function value is, the safer the value of ψ in the definition domain of the segment is, and the function value on each definition domain is calculated by using the following formula:
where security (ψ) represents a security evaluation function; μ is a scaling factor changing the magnitude of the function value, set to a constant greater than 0; d, d max A distance threshold value that causes a change in the security (ψ) function value for the obstacle to start, andd is the minimum distance from ARV to the obstacle grid in a single defined area, let it be when no obstacle grid is present in the corresponding area
Constraint I in this embodiment safe According to the safety evaluation function, two steps of calculation are carried out, firstly, a set I 'of value intervals of the motion direction meeting the safety requirement is determined' safe =[I′ 1 ,I′ 2 ,...,I′ j ](j is a value intervalNumber of (2) to make ARV at I' safe Distance to the obstacle kept safe in the movement direction within the interval of (2): use d share As a distance threshold for securing ARV, the corresponding safety evaluation function has a function value threshold of λ (d max -d share ) Since the larger the distance is, the smaller the function value is, and the safer the value of ψ is in the calculation of the function value of the security evaluation function, the security (ψ) < λ (d is used max -d share ) Calculating to obtain I' safe . Then, the I 'is reduced' safe To obtain I safe To ensure ARV at I safe The distance to the obstacle on both sides in the movement direction in the interval of (2) is also kept relatively safe: as shown in FIG. 3, a safety interval I for securing ARV is provided Δ In I' safe All the value intervals (in I' 1 For example) reduces I at each end Δ To obtain I safe (as I) 1 For example).
Using the design of objective functions and constraints described above, the sharing control of ARV heading angles can be translated into a maximized multi-objective optimization problem as shown in the following equation:
where max represents ψ corresponding to the maximum value of the objective function value preferentially taken in the multi-objective optimization.
The optimization method is used for solving the multi-objective optimization problem to obtain an optimal solution psi share . In the environment exploration task, the ARV usually works in an underwater environment with unknown global environment information, the requirement on reliability is very high, and an optimization algorithm should be solved in each control period to obtain a stable and reliable result; furthermore, since the operator needs to control the ARV in real time, the optimization algorithm selected should have less time complexity to reduce the amount of computation. Therefore, the present embodiment uses the minimum maximum method as an optimization method to seek the best optimization result in the worst case. The minimum and maximum method requires less calculation amount, and simultaneously has stable optimization result and can ensureThe real-time performance and reliability of the ARV sharing control method in the task are ensured. The maximized multi-objective optimization problem is converted into a single-objective optimization problem by a minimum maximization method, and a heading angle control command psi generated by a shared control method can be obtained by solving share The following formula is shown:
where min { } represents that each segment in the defined domain takes the minimum of all objective functions.
As shown in fig. 4, ψ is calculated using the least-squares method share In the time, the function image of the single-objective optimization function min { obedience (ψ), autonomy (ψ), stability (ψ) } in the value interval satisfying the constraint condition is shown as a black bold line in fig. 4, where the angle corresponding to the maximum value of the function values is used as the optimal solution of the multi-objective optimization problem, that is, the control command ψ of the ARV heading angle generated based on the sharing control method of multi-objective optimization in this embodiment share . Psi obtained using the least squares method share The objective function with the smallest function value can always obtain the maximum value in the constraint condition, the objective with the lowest objective function value is ensured to obtain the best result, and the influence of the objective function on the optimization result is conveniently changed by adjusting the shape coefficient of the objective function.
