Duke researchers propose new means for controlling hundreds of robots – WRAL Tech Wire
Posted: July 5, 2020 at 10:07 am
In a building several stories tall with numerous rooms, hundreds of obstacles and thousands of places to inspect, the several dozen robots move as one cohesive unit. They spread out in a search pattern to thoroughly check the entire building while simultaneously splitting tasks so as to not waste time doubling back on their own paths or re-checking places other robots have already visited.
Such cohesion would be difficult for human controllers to achieve, let alone for an artificial controller to compute in real-time.
If a control problem has three or four robots that live in a world with only a handful of rooms, and if the collaborative task is specified by simple logic rules, there are state-of-the-art tools that can compute an optimal solution that satisfies the task in a reasonable amount of time, saidMichael M. Zavlanos, the Mary Milus Yoh and Harold L. Yoh, Jr. Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science at Duke University.
And if you dont care about the best solution possible, you can solve for a few more rooms and more complex tasks in a matter of minutes, but still only a dozen robots tops, Zavlanos said. Any more than that, and current algorithms are unable to overcome the sheer volume of possibilities in finding a solution.
In anew paper published online on April 29in The International Journal of Robotics Research, Zavlanos and his recent PhD graduate student, Yiannis Kantaros, who is now a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Pennsylvania, propose a new approach to this challenge called STyLuS*, for large-Scale optimal Temporal Logic Synthesis, that can solve problems massively larger than what current algorithms can handle, with hundreds of robots, tens of thousands of rooms and highly complex tasks, in a small fraction of the time.
To understand the basis of the new approach, one must first understand linear temporal logic, which is not nearly as scary as it sounds. Suppose you wanted to program a handful of robots to collect mail from a neighborhood and deliver it to the post office every day. Linear temporal logic is a way of writing down the commands needed to complete this task.
For example, these commands might include to visit each house in sequential order, return back to the post office and then wait for someone to retrieve the collected mail before setting out again. While this might be easy to say in English, its more difficult to express mathematically. Linear temporal logic can do so by using its own symbols which, although might look like Klingon to the common observer, theyre extremely useful for expressing complex control problems.
The term linear is used because points in time have a unique successor based on discrete linear model of time, and temporal refers to the use of operators such as until, next, eventually and always, said Kantaros. Using this mathematical formalism, we can build complex commands such as visit all the houses except house two, visit houses three and four in sequential order, and wait until youve been to house one before going to house five.
To find robot controllers that satisfy such complex tasks, the location of each robot is mapped into a discrete data point called a node. Then, from each node, there exist multiple other nodes that are a potential next step for the robot.
A traditional controller searches through each one of these nodes and the potential paths to take between them before figuring out the best way to navigate its way through. But as the number of robots and locations to visit increase, and as the logic rules to follow become more sophisticated, the solution space becomes incredibly large in a very short amount of time.
A simple problem with five robots living in a world with ten houses could contain millions of nodes, capturing all possible robot locations and behaviors towards achieving the task. This requires a lot of memory to store and processing power to search through.
To skirt around this issue, the researchers propose a new method that, rather than constructing these incredibly large graphs in their entirety, instead creates smaller approximations with a tree structure. At every step of the process, the algorithm randomly selects one node from the large graph, adds it to the tree, and rewires the existing paths between the nodes in the tree to find more direct paths from start to finish.
This means that as the algorithm progresses, this tree that we incrementally grow gets closer and closer to the actual graph, which we never actually construct, said Kantaros. Since our incremental graph is much smaller, it is easy to store in memory. Moreover, since this graph is a tree, graph search, which otherwise has exponential complexity, becomes very easy because now we only need to trace the sequence of parent nodes back to the root to find the desired path.
It had been long accepted that growing trees could not be used to search the space of possible solutions for these types of robot control problems. But in the paper, Zavlanos and Kantaros show that they can make it work by implementing two clever tricks. First, the algorithm chooses the next node to add based on information about the task at hand, which allows the tree to quickly approximate a good solution to the problem. Second, even though the algorithm grows trees, it can still detect cycles in the original graph space that capture solutions to such temporal logic tasks.
The researchers show that this method will always find an answer if there is one, and it will always eventually find the best one possible. They also show that this method can arrive at that answer exponentially fast. Working with a problem of 10 robots searching through a 50-by-50 grid space 250 houses to pick up mail current state-of-the-art algorithms take 30 minutes to find an optimal solution.
STyLuS* does it in about 20 seconds.
We have even solved problems with 200 robots that live on a 100-by-100 grid world, which is far too large for todays algorithms to handle, said Zavlanos. While there currently arent any systems that use 200 robots to do something like deliver packages, there might be in the future. And they would need a control framework like STyLuS* to be able to deliver them while satisfying complex logic-based rules.
This research was supported by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (FA95501910169) and the Office of Naval Research (N000141812374).

Opinion: How the rise of robots can boost the human creative process – AdAge.com
Posted: at 10:07 am
Moravecs Paradox states that while machines are great at doing some things that humans find complex, they are bad at doing other things we find simple. If thats the case, thenwe should really be asking ourselves: "What is the complexity in our business we can focus these machines on to make them optimal creative partners?"
In the same way that the engineering progress of robotics faces bottlenecks, so does commercial creativity. Ourbottlenecks are defined by the "iron triangle"that you learn about in management school: higher speed, better quality and lower cost. We are taught that you can only have two of these, at the expense of the third. Our clients expect all three. Machine-learning AI and automation, partnered with strong creativity,now makes this possible.
Data-driven insights: Great creativity comes from the constraints of a tight and accurate brief, based on observed consumer behaviornoton how people say they feel or what they claim they intend to do. (After all, if you want a consumer to lie, just ask them a question.)Machine learning helps refine data sets of extraordinary scale to reveal signals amongst the noise, moments that matter in consumer journeys, and help us understand the actions required to change the way people feel and act. The application of machine-learning AI to data generates invaluable insights, which facilitates more-effective creative.
Optimization and efficiency: The second way is the ability to fail faster, learn faster and fix faster, in order to get your creative expression exactly right. Long gone is the relevance of IPSOS-like testing of 30-secondspots against a set of norms and zero context. Today, we can make, run, iterate and learn. In a recent campaign for a luxury car client, we useda machine-learning AI platform that can makesubtle adaptations to creative based on audience data signals, down to the individual level. We set the creative parameters for the executionimages, sounds, claims and the overall narrativethen let the machine optimize it. The platform developed 438 permutations of the video, three of which significantly outperformed the others. The result was a 42 percent higher view-through rate and 17 percentcost reduction of the next-best action. The nuances in the creative wouldnt necessarily have been apparent to a human, but by embracing AI, the work became more effective.
Outcomes evaluation: The first two examples are tied to traditional media metrics, which are important, but not the ultimate goal. To take it a step further,robots are also able to determine and measure the true attribution of creativity on clients business outcomes, and on the resulting behaviors of individual consumers. With this attribution it is possible to demonstrate how creative work solved those "jobs to be done"in the consumer journey from the brief. And, because it can be measured and its marketing impact is assured, it allows more clients to shift to an outcomes-based pricing model, leaving the inputs-based approach where it belongsin the last decade.
These are just three of the many excitingpossibilities for applying machine-learning AI to commercial creativity.
By embracing the inhumanto handle those complex tasks that distract and slowdown the process, creatives can liberate themselves to becomemore human in pursuit of what was arguably the first, and will be the last, bastion ofhumanityour ability to create.

based Boohoo under fire after investigation over slavery wages at Leicester factory – About Manchester – About Manchester
Posted: at 10:05 am
The Manchester based fashion giant Boohoo is facing an investigation after workers in Leicester making clothes destined for the the Company are being paid as little as 3.50 an hour.
The undercover Sunday Times investigation found that Jaswal Fashions, was also operating last week during the localised coronavirus lockdown without additional hygiene or social distancing measures in place. The undercover reporter spent two days working in the factory where he was told to expect 3.50 an hour, despite the minimum wage in Britain for those aged 25 and over being 8.72.
He obtained covert video footage of himself packing garments made in the factory under the label of Nasty Gal part of the Boohoo brand says the report in this mornings paper.
Boohoo has already come under fire for allegedly risking the spread of coronavirus in Leicester after claims that factories supplying the online retailer told staff to come into work during lockdown despite being sick.
The Company which began life on a Manchester market store has been at the forefront of the internet shopping explosion for clothes and has steadily brought in new brands over the years including the Nasty Gal brand.
Along with Primark and Missguided, it has been criticised for fuelling a throwaway fast-fashion culture that has been linked to exploitation of low-paid workers in UK factories.
A statement from Nasty Gal said the company would investigate this newspapers claims, but insisted that Jaswal Fashions was not a direct supplier. It said: Nasty Gal does not allow any of its suppliers to pay less than the minimum wage and has a zero-tolerance approach to incidences of modern slavery.
We have terminated relationships with suppliers where evidence of non-compliance with our strict code of conduct is found.
We will take immediate steps to fully investigate the allegations raised and if the allegations are substantiated we will ensure that our suppliers immediately cease working with Jaswal Fashions.

Reparations must be made for the toxic legacy of West Indian slavery – The National
Posted: at 10:05 am
UNDER the rubric of Black Lives Matter (UK limited) it is time that the objective of the discourse and movement is swiftly moved on from felling statues and begins to confront the political, moral and historical consequences of the terrible reality of West Indian enslavement.
Caricom, the 20-member association of Caribbean states (all but two, Haiti and Suriname, were former British colonial territories) have since 2104 submitted a 10-point reparations programme to the EU and specifically the UK Government.
Before laying out the details of the Caricom document that needs much greater popular support, allow me to indulge my personal/political reflections.
My partner of 40 years from Barbados can trace her mothers family back to enslavement (but not yet to Africa), all of whom either as chattle-slaves or low-wage labour worked the land on a Drax plantation in St John, Barbados. The Drax family, through James Drax, was the first to introduce chattel African enslavement in 1650 in Drax Hall, Barbados.
READ MORE:Gerry Hassan: A Scottish Border or a Great Divide?
His brother William established a huge slave property in Jamaica, again Drax Hall, while Henry Drax (an 18th-century MP for Dorset) established the St John plantation. The Drax family had a keen interest in protecting the West Indian plantocracy with a very long line of members of parliament. Indeed Richard Drax currently sits on the family seat in Dorset as a backbench Tory member. Some statues live.
Barbados is per capita one of the worlds centres for diabetic amputations after centuries of harmful diets of heavily imported salted fish, starches and sugar. My partners mother, a wonderful woman who after years of night school left the fields, lost half a leg (below the knee) and her left foot. Aunt Shirl went blind and lost both legs. The grandmother who helped raise my wife was wheelchair-bound for more than 30 years. My partner, with hypertension, had a triple bypass three years ago and my eldest son is already a diabetic. I want to expose these details so that when the 10-point declaration is raised, in which the Caribbean public health crisis is brought up, be assured black lives do matter.
Point five of the Caricom Reparation Commission declaration states: The African descended population in the Caribbean has the highest incidence in the world of chronic diseases in the forms of hypertension and type two diabetes. This pandemic is the direct result of the nutritional experience, physical and emotional brutality, and overall stress profiles associated with slavery, genocide, and apartheid.
Over 10 million Africans were imported into the Caribbean during 200 years of slavery. At the end of slavery in the late 19th century less than two million remained. The chronic health condition of Caribbean blacks now constitutes the greatest financial risk to sustainability in the region. Arresting this pandemic requires the injection of science, technology, and capital beyond the capacity of the region.
There is so much more. Below is a summary of the proposals submitted
and asserts that these several actions could constitute crimes against humanity.
The Caricom Reparation Commission asserts that European governments:
l Were owners and traders of enslaved Africans and instructed genocidal actions upon indigenous communities
l Created the legal, financial and fiscal policies necessary for the enslavement of Africans
l Defined and enforced African enslavement and native genocide as in their national interests
l Refused compensation to the enslaved with the ending of their enslavement
l Compensated slave owners at emancipation for the loss of legal property rights in enslaved Africans
l Imposed a further 100 years of racial apartheid upon the emancipated
l Imposed for another 100 years policies designed to perpetuate suffering upon the emancipated and survivors of genocide
l And have refused to acknowledge such crimes or to compensate victims and their descendants.

Some of us may still need reminding of the atrocities and injustices perpetrated in the Caribbean.
When Columbus found the archipelago (and the figures are only for the island chain) there was an estimated 4 million Taino, Carib or Arawak indigenous people . By the time Cromwell sent in his troops in 1665 there were an estimated 2.5 to 3 million (Caricom figures). Today there are less than 30,000 across the 30-plus island archipelago.
Caricom estimates an approximate total of 10 million Africans were imported as enslaved labour in around 200 years. At Emancipation in the 1830s (later in French territories and Cuba) the figure was less than two million. More precise figures for Barbados indicate a total African population of 660,000 (from 1650 -1807) with 84,000 left in 1834. That is genocide in Holocaust dimensions.
This long Caribbean (the sea of the Caribs) chapter in European history with Spain in the vanguard followed by France, England then Scotland, Wales and Ireland joining in plus Denmark, and The Netherlands all have to answer to history and begin the process of healing. Scotland, with a historically long list of around 30 major enslavement investors and another several thousand second-tier participants, will need to address the Caricom concerns.
There are challenges to overcome. Why should we socialise the blame and reparations when it was private gain that lead the charge, supported by pro-enslavement Westminster Governments?
When enslavement has to be compensated in some form, what about shameful imperial commercial activity in other distant parts of the Empire? There is quite a catalogue.
While Scotland seeks its own road to some form of anti-imperialist sovereignty it must come to terms with its own historic commercial imperialism.

Servants of their Sahibs – Greater Kashmir
Posted: at 10:05 am
These-days the Galwan valley of Laddakh is finding a mention in the headline news of all media outlets owing to Indo-Sino standoff at LAC in Laddakh. The word Galwan in the Galwan valley & its Galwan River has caught immediate attention of social media users who began trolling for origin of the name, Galwan, in the said Valley-River since this word finds good use in common Kashmiri parlance for describing & denoting a particular kind of an individual who is loud-mouthed, or vociferous shouter at others, like horse-keepers in olden days of Kashmir. So, the etymological origin of the name: Galwan. Yes, the Galwan valley-cum-river is named after Ghulam Rassul Galwan, a native Laddakhi Muslim traveler, adventurer & explorer, who in his short span of 47 year life, from 1887 to 1913, intermittently accompanied & worked in service of some famous English, Scottish, Italian & American travelers, of their times, during their expeditions of the Himalaya, Central Asia, Karakuram & Tibet. However, it was Robert Barrett, an American adventurer traveler, to whom he was chiefly devoted, who encouraged him to write down his experiences of various trips & having served his Sahibs: English, Scottish, Italian & American Masters. It was under the guidance of Robert Barrett that he wrote a small book titled Servant of Sahibs in his faulty English, writes Francis Younghusband, a reputed British Army officer, traveler & author of his days, who has written an introduction to this book which was first published in 1923. One can Google out all related trivia about the Galwan-story from the internet for ones academic quest & media posts.
But, what interests me here is not the Galwan-story, or the Galwan-valley-river, as such, nor the founder thereof, Ghulam Rassul Galwan, though his small work has made him a name to be reckoned with till times to come. Honestly, it is the title Servant of Sahibs of that book that specifically fascinates me to pause & ponder doesnt it smack of master-servant relationship. It looks archaic way of looking and thinking about the things. But, in his time of 19th & early 20th century, Galwan was definitely a servant of his masters. It was the time when master-servant-relationship was used for any kind of labour hired by the employers mostly in private domain. But then, Wage, Industrial & Labor Laws, growth of the industry, from 18th century onwards, the relationship came to be called employer-employee relationship which is based on defined terms of contract of employment, although critics still call it wage-slavery less than involuntary servitude. In organised sector, wage slavery does not have much role to play as the employees work voluntarily for the good wage under the protection of institutionalized-employment. But the main problem lies with unorganized sector where 80% of total workforce in India is still working for extremely low daily or monthly wages with no job security at all, mostly as non-unionized workers. It is generally the underprivileged members of our societies with their personal & domestic compulsions who work for pittance with private individuals, contractors, shop-owners, small scale & cottage industries, small private firms, media channels & multiple other private bodies & associations, and have to work literally as servants of their sahibs. The servants of their sahibs should not be confused with civil or public servants, who are the career bureaucrats in the State hierarchy of all countries.
The word sahib is an Arabic word which has found its place in multiple languages of Indian sub-continent & Central Asian States. Its short form is saab which is invariably used in Bollywood movies, TV dramas, offices, businesses & everywhere else in the sub-continental life. The servants of their sahibs are a commonplace of our societies & times since long. They owe their origin to the colonial period of British India. According to Collins Online Dictionary, the word Sahib is a polite form of addressing a man in a position of authority. Sahib was used especially of white government officials in the period of British rule of India. Hence, British Sahibs & Memsahibs. To enliven the discussion, let me tell you something interesting. Till recent past, whenever a tourist-gora-couple walked on Srinagar streets, the little children of the mohalla would assemble & tread on their heels all around & sing an old Kashmiri-distich like a chorus with hand-clapping: Memsahib- Sahib Salaam, Pate Pate Ghulam [Welcome Memsahib- Sahib, your servants follow you] The happy and smiling Memsahib-Sahib would then stop walking for a while, look behind and give some toffees to the singing-children. The toffees were all that for which the little children followed them and sung Kashmiri-distich. The little children, those days, must have memorized this Kashmiri-couplet on their lips from their elders-parents teaching. The colonial tradition did not end. With growth of businesses & expansion of employment sector in Kashmir, you will find, not children now, but big adults treading on heels of their bosses all around their offices, hurling loads of praises on their shoulders, for big toffees of undue favours. This is the area of flattery, a vicious mental-slavery, which abounds in innumerable examples around. In a banking organisation, I have seen, subordinates in presence of their bosses, responding & shushing their Salam-offering-colleagues, with finger- wagging & index on lips. Some would turn red & stammer Sa, sa, sa, sa, Sir before their bosses.
As the people of the Indian subcontinent were subjects of British Rulers, white Sahibs were their masters. However, even after their mastery ended with fall of their colonial rule, the word retained its permanent niche in daily conversations as a distinguishable form of address by subordinates towards their masters in some position of authority over them. So, in post colonial period, we see both black & white Sahibs on the heads of servants in all walks of life in the Indian subcontinent. The servants of their sahibs retain their position & relevance as literary servants too, since they are not independent of the social context in which they exist, for the literary men who use them as their prime characters in their fiction & prose. For the idealist German philosopher, George WF Hegel, in his The Phenomenology, the master-servant relationship exists between God & man. Frederick Copestone has explained Hegels philosophical thought in these simple words: Here the master is the one who succeeds in obtaining recognition from the other, in the sense he imposes himself as the others value. The slave is the one who sees his own true self in the other. [VIII: 183]
But here we may mention of servants of their sahibs who live in working class of our Kashmirian community. In view of long agonizing history of Kashmir, the British colonial legacy of slavery-mastery in employer-employee-relationships is deep-rooted in the psyche of many Kashmiris, and as such, it is reflected in all their commercial, business & official relationships. The workers, the employees, whatever you call them, work & serve their sahibs in businesses, trade, industry & offices , wholeheartedly & devotedly. So far, so good. This class of servants know the tricks of the trade either by themselves, their self-ability, or they learn them from their masters, who train & teach them on that. Their masters use their skills of the trade only for augmenting their own business interests, building their own empire of fortune to their misfortune. In one instance, I know, Rafiq & Shafiq, two Zchatebojis (apprentices) worked at home Karkhana (workplace) of a Srinagrian goldsmith who, as Ustad (teacher), had trained & taught them all skills of his trade. But one day, the goldsmith was heard saying to some of his friends that all kinds of defects [Kasr viz, Zchate Kasr, Phrate Kasr, Vate Kasr,] in manufacturing & assembling of his gold jewellery, were tricks of the trade carried out by Rafiq & Shafiq, for which he had no responsibility. What a shame? How that goldsmith was exploiting his poor apprentices? An Ustad imparting all in-genuine tricks of trade to his protg brazenly denying his liability for the defects in his goods!
To keep their bosses in good mood, these workers, servants of their sahibs, sometimes resort to , or are used to resort to, unfair means with customers in discharging their jobs. Most of the times, their bosses exploit not only their skills of the trade, but their compulsive financial needs & scarcity of jobs in the market, to their own advantage. Its direct result is that the servants of their sahibs internalize the corrupt conduct as a normal in their daily lives. Mama Kul a matriculate domestic-worker, (Gharailo Mulazim), faulty-flaunt English-speaker, was an example to elaborate the idea. He was used by a Pashmina-Shawl merchants family of Shar e Khas (old city Srinagar) as their business representative for his two qualities: First, Kasme Khitre [false-wearing]. As he was a well known profane swearer in his life, he always generously swore on every divine & sacred thing in the world for convincing a buyer about finality of the prices, durability & originality of the material used in manufacturing of his masters goods. Second, his faulty-flaunt English was utilised by illiterate merchant-masters for speaking for them in selling their goods to foreign English-speaking customers.
Tailpiece:
All servants of their sahibs are not lucky enough like Ghulam Rassul Galwan who had found selfless [not native] sahibs under whose tutelage he earned a permanent niche in history. But, Rafiq & Shafiq , and Mama Kul, whether consciously or unconsciously, consensually or un-consensually, will continue to serve their selfish-sahibs who will only exploit their skills of the trade for their own material good. The exploitation of the servants by their sahibs will go on till the problems of unemployment & compulsive economic needs of the servants persist in our society &, even in this modern age, the relationship between the two will continue to have a semblance of feudal phantom of bondage for necessity between them. The servants will go on slavishly subordinating themselves to their sahibs which will turn the whole relationship into an exploitative situation by their sahibs.
