The navigation to these fixed points is a repetitive task that can be automated. The challenge in automating the navigation of vehicles commonly used in mines is the systemic properties of such vehicles. Many mining vehicles, such as the one we have used in the research for this paper, use steering systems with an articulated joint bending the vehicle's drive axis to change its course and a hydraulic drive system to actuate axial drive components or the movements of tippers if available. To address the difficulties of controlling such a vehicle, we present a model-predictive approach for controlling the vehicle. While the control optimisation based on a parallel error minimisation of the predicted state has already been established in the past, we provide insight into the design and implementation of an MPC for an articulated mining vehicle and show the results of real-world experiments in an open-pit mine environment.}, language = {en} } @incollection{StollenwerkFranzkeMaureretal.2023, author = {Stollenwerk, Dominik and Franzke, Till and Maurer, Florian and Reinkensmeier, Sebastian and Kim, Franken and Tambornino, Philipp and Haas, Florian and Rieke, Christian and Hermanuz, Andreas and Borchert, J{\"o}rg and Ritz, Thomas and Sander, Volker}, title = {Smarte Lades{\"a}ulen : Netz- und Marktdienliches {\"o}ffentliches Laden}, series = {Towards the New Normal in Mobility : Technische und betriebswirtschaftliche Aspekte}, booktitle = {Towards the New Normal in Mobility : Technische und betriebswirtschaftliche Aspekte}, editor = {Proff, Heike}, publisher = {Springer Gabler}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-658-39437-0 (Print)}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-658-39438-7_18}, pages = {287 -- 304}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Stand 01.01.2022 sind in Deutschland 618.460 elektrisch angetriebene KFZ zugelassen.

Computational power and memory requirements for this approach are identified and compared to the performance of current computer architectures by benchmarking different processors. It is shown, that the performance of special purpose hardware, like neurocomputers, is between one and two orders of magnitude higher than the performance of mainstream hardware. On the other hand, the calculation of small neural networks is performed more efficiently on mainstream processors. Based on these results a novel concept is developed, which is tailored for the efficient calculation of bidirectional associative memories. The computational efficiency is further enhanced by the application of algorithms and storage techniques which are matched to characteristics of the application at hand.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Elsen1998, author = {Elsen, Ingo}, title = {A pixel based approach to view based object recognition with self-organizing neural networks}, series = {IECON'98.

To perform this task a coding strategy, inspired by the biological model of human vision, for pixel data is described. The coding strategy ensures that the input data is invariant against shift, scale and rotation of the object in the input domain. The image data is used as input to a class of self organizing neural networks, the Kohonen-maps or self-organizing feature maps (SOFM). To verify this approach two test sets have been generated: the first set, consisting of artificially generated images, is used to examine the classification properties of the SOFMs; the second test set examines the clustering capabilities of the SOFM when real world image data is applied to the network after it has been preprocessed to be invariant against shift, scale and rotation. It is shown that the clustering capability of the SOFM is strongly dependant on the invariance coding of the images.}, language = {en} } @article{ElsenKraissKrumbiegeletal.1999, author = {Elsen, Ingo and Kraiss, Karl-Friedrich and Krumbiegel, Dirk and Walter, Peter and Wickel, Jochen}, title = {Visual information retrieval for 3D product identification: a midterm report}, series = {KI - K{\"u}nstliche Intelligenz}, volume = {13}, journal = {KI - K{\"u}nstliche Intelligenz}, number = {1}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1610-1987}, pages = {64 -- 67}, year = {1999}, language = {en} } @article{ElsenKraiss1999, author = {Elsen, Ingo and Kraiss, Karl-Friedrich}, title = {System concept and realization of a scalable neurocomputing architecture}, series = {Systems Analysis Modelling Simulation}, volume = {35}, journal = {Systems Analysis Modelling Simulation}, number = {4}, publisher = {Gordon and Breach Science Publishers}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0232-9298}, pages = {399 -- 419}, year = {1999}, abstract = {This paper describes the realization of a novel neurocomputer which is based on the concepts of a coprocessor. In contrast to existing neurocomputers the main interest was the realization of a scalable, flexible system, which is capable of computing neural networks of arbitrary topology and scale, with full independence of special hardware from the software's point of view. On the other hand, computational power should be added, whenever needed and flexibly adapted to the requirements of the application. Hardware independence is achieved by a run time system which is capable of using all available computing power, including multiple host CPUs and an arbitrary number of neural coprocessors autonomously. The realization of arbitrary neural topologies is provided through the implementation of the elementary operations which can be found in most neural topologies.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WalterElsenMuelleretal.1999, author = {Walter, Peter and Elsen, Ingo and M{\"u}ller, Holger and Kraiss, Karl-Friedrich}, title = {3D object recognition with a specialized mixtures of experts architecture}, series = {IJCNN'99.

Commonly, classification is based on a single feature extracted from the original image. Here we present an architecture adapted from the Mixtures of Eaqerts algorithm which uses multiple neuml networks to integmte different features. During tmining each neural network specializes in a subset of objects or object views appropriate to the properties of the corresponding feature space. In recognition mode the system dynamically chooses the most relevant features and combines them with maximum eficiency. The remaining less relevant features arz not computed and do therefore not decelerate the-recognition process. Thus, the algorithm is well suited for ml-time applications.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Elsen2000, author = {Elsen, Ingo}, title = {Ansichtenbasierte 3D-Objekterkennung mit erweiterten selbstorganisierenden Merkmalskarten}, publisher = {VDI-Verlag}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, isbn = {978-3-18-363110-0}, issn = {0341-1796}, pages = {VIII, 140 S. : Ill., graph.
