  • Abstract
    AGVs are automatic load carriers that transfer objects from one location to another in a factory environment. Due to the increasing complexity of factory floor environments coupled with the need for increased flexibility in AGV systems, it is becoming increasingly important to be able to control AGV fleets dynamically. A neural network based method for controlling AGVs is presented.
